In this revolutionary book, Joan Breton Connelly challenges our most basic assumptions about the Parthenon and the ancient Athenians. Beginning with the natural environment and its rich mythic associations, she re-creates the development of the Acropolis - the Sacred Rock at the heart of the city-state - from its prehistoric origins to its Periklean glory days as a constellation of temples among which the Parthenon stood supreme.

With lips slightly parted and eyes fixed on a point in the distance, a breathtaking marble portrait of Costanza Piccolomini appears alive. Carved by Gianlorenzo Bernini in 1636 - 37 for his own pleasure, the portrait of Costanza is one of his most captivating works, but until now little has been known about its subject. For centuries Costanza was identified only as Bernini's mistress, who later incited his rage by betraying him for his brother. Author Sarah McPhee corrects and expands this story in her remarkable biography of a sculpture and its subject.

私たちの生活のいたるところで，デザインは息づいている．その囁きに，ちょっと立ち止まって耳を傾けてみよう．そこには，柔らかな感受性から生まれた生活への新しい提案と，未来への可能性が託されている．

まさしく歴史的な転換点に立つ日本．大震災を経て，とりわけ経済・文化活動のあらゆる側面において根本的な変更をせまられる今，この国に必要な「資源」とは何か？　マネーではなく，美を，幸福を，誇りを得るために，立ち戻るべきは「感受性」である──．

古代末期から中世にかけて，ヨーロッパでは，石やガラスのかけらを使ったモザイクが床や壁に作られた．ローマ帝国の版図を実感させる絵から，聖堂を訪れ救済を求める人々を見守ったイエス像まで，「永遠の絵」は今も私たちの心を捉えて離すことはない．

Si encara no tens clar si ets pijo o no, aquest és el teu llibre; si ho tens clar, també.

Tenim tan poca idea dels pijos, del seu món i del seu modus vivendi que el Marc Giró s'ha vist en l'obligació d'escriure aquest nou llibre, desobeint el principi més bàsic de la vida regalada, que diu que el més important a la vida de tot pijo és no pencar mai, sota cap concepte, que això és cosa de les classes proletàries de la Lower-Diagonal.

Val a dir, en la nostra defensa, que avui, en temps de Zara, qualsevol persona per quatre duros pot vestir-se de pijo...

No hi ha una sola Roma; n'hi ha tantes com mirades hi reposen, tantes com passejades o cafès. Roma és un pòsit d'hores viscudes, d'esglésies on tornes a entrar, de columnes i negronis, de l'art que fascina i els ocres que t'atrapen. Aquesta és una Roma íntima, feta de records personals, de viatges i anècdotes, de les veus d'uns altres i de la pròpia veu que mira de copsar-la a través dels detalls. Un poble que és capital sentimental. No és una guia turística ni una enciclopèdia històrica, sinó un retrat de la ciutat i, alhora, un autoretrat de qui la mira i la viu.

“Io dico che bisogna essere veggente, farsi veggente. Il Poeta si fa veggente attraverso una lunga, immensa e ragionata sregolatezza di tutti i sensi.” Tra l’aprile e il maggio 1875 per alcune settimane Arthur Rimbaud, il grande autore di Vocali, Il Battello ebbro e Una stagione all’inferno, dall’esistenza scandalosa e ricca di colpi di scena, si ferma a Milano dove sembra essere ospitato nella casa di una misteriosa vedova, affacciata su piazza Duomo.

La Cappella Sistina è uno dei luoghi più celebri al mondo. È il capolavoro che segna il pasSaggio dalla bottega rinascimentale al trionfo del genio creativo moderno. Quello in cui l'opera d'arte inizia a essere riconosciuta come prodotto di puro ingegno. Quello attraverso cui la politica realizza pienamente il potenziale comunicativo e propagandistico dell'arte.

È possibile rappresentare il volto di Dio? E come? Se Dio diventa l’oggetto della nostra rappresentazione, possiamo credere che sia il suo mistero stesso a farsi immagine, a prendere forma? Il domenicano Giuseppe Damigella, teologo e artista, cerca di dare una risposta a queste domande e affronta un tema quanto mai attuale. Lo fa conducendo il lettore in un viaggio dentro l’arte, attraverso le tele che hanno più da vicino esplorato la natura di Dio.
