Paperback. Condition: New. What makes a city alive? What did 20th-century design dreams leave behind?Along with a series of critical commentaries, this book unveils for the first time Townscape in USA, a previously unpublished manuscript written by Gordon Cullen in the early 1960s.Best known for Townscape (1961), Cullen brings his incisive, visually attuned, and often wry perspective to six American cities - New York, Pittsburgh, Boston, Chicago, Philadelphia, and Washington, D.C. - providing splendid, semi-prophetic visions of the cities' destinies, and foreshadowing the inevitable consequences of uncontrolled building development. Cullen constantly reminds us of how urban designers should focus on people and creating a sense of place, and critiquing the rigid visual codes of Beaux-Arts planning and offering a counter-vision rooted in texture, contrast and surprise. Through expressive sketches and spatial observations, he reveals how cities could, and should, offer not only efficiency but delight, not only order but encounter. These visions are supported by a series of drawings, notes and photos taken from Cullen's archives.This book is an essential read for architects, planners, and dreamers alike. Addressing today's debates about human-centred design, the - until now - forgotten manuscript Townscape in USA is a passionate plea to rethink what a city is, and whom it is for.…

Brossura. Condition: new. Bologna, 2021; br., pp. 236.(Seminario giuridico dell'Università di Bologna). La Parafrasi greca delle Istituzioni di Giustiniano, attribuita quasi unanimemente all'antecessor Teofilo, è un rompicapo storiografico, a partire dal nome. Chiamarla così è, per taluni, il frutto di un'infelice convenzione. Quanto a Teofilo, presunto autore, c'è ancora, con Ferrini, chi ritiene che a metterla insieme non sia stato il celebre professore costantinopolitano che visse ed operò sotto il regno di Giustiniano. Tutt'al più, si dice, uno studente o un suo collaboratore: non si spiegherebbero altrimenti, inter alia, certi svarioni dell'opera, che dovremmo altrimenti attribuire, non senza qualche perplessità, al primo dei professores legitimae scientiae. Su questo piano, la Parafrasi c.d. 'di Teofilo' diventa - quasi inavvertitamente - 'mito', non come sinonimo di evento leggendario, ma come catalizzatore di fatti più o meno pulviscolari (accaduti nel VI secolo d.C, incerti ed incoerenti e oggetto di ipotesi opinabili), nel profilo di una figura leggibile (che è quella di un testo istituzionale in greco, di traduzione e commento alle Institutiones di Giustiniano, tramandato da una tradizione manoscritta di molto seriore all'epoca della probabile redazione). Basterebbero queste osservazioni per una rinnovata discussione sul tema. Tra i tanti, il punto di vista della storia della storiografia servirà a mettere qualche punto sulle i. Quando vada male, sarà stato proficuo disseppellire qualche notizia inedita e rispolverare dati assodati, specie perché non risultano sempre tali, a confutarli in chiavi diverse dalle solite. Libro.…
