Rilegato. Condition: new. Traduzione di R. Sadleir. Milano, 2022; ril., pp. 128, ill. col., cm 24,5x31. (Ad Esempio). Il volume è dedicato alla storia emblematica della casa sul Canal Grande e dei modi in cui Carlo Scarpa realizzò questa boîte à miracle . Scarpa restaurò la casa tra il 1964 e il 1968, per Loredana Balboni, collezionista e mercante d'arte, vedova di Francesco Pasinetti, direttore del Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia di Roma e sorella di Letizia, moglie di Michelangelo Antonioni, che ne fece un ritrovo per letterati, artisti e registi, da Paolini e Maselli, da Visconti a De Kooning, e uno scrigno di opere d'arte, con capolavori di Ernst, Viani, Tancredi e Bacon. L'architetto attrezzò per gli ambienti e le opere uno straordinario cannocchiale luminoso che collega il fronte sul giardino della casa a quello sul Canal Grande. Si avvalse di materiali lapidei modellati con cura estrema e di rivestimenti parietali realizzati ricorrendo a tecniche tradizionali e ai più dotati artigiani veneziani. Dopo la scomparsa di Loredana Balboni, nel 2008, la casa è entrata a far parte delle disponibilità di un nuovo proprietario, che ne ha promosso il necessario restauro. I lavori compiuti hanno permesso di conoscere ogni singolo aspetto della costruzione, di mettere in luce tutte le soluzioni utilizzate da Scarpa, di restituire gli spazi alla loro mirabile lucentezza e trasparenza. La storia emblematica di Casa Balboni è messa in luce da Roberta Martinis sulla scorta di accurate ricerche archivistiche, che hanno portato alla pubblicazione di molti disegni sconosciuti, mentre Francesco Magnani e Trudy Pelzel hanno spiegato, avvalendosi di un'ampia documentazione fotografica, come sono intervenuti per restaurarla.

Hardback. Condition: New. A consideration of the ways in which the past was framed and remembered in the pre-modern world.The training and use of memory was crucial in medieval culture, given the limited literacy at the time, but to date, very little thought has been given to the complex and disparate ways in which the theory and practices of memoryinteracted with the inherently unstable concepts of time and gender at the time. The essays in this volume, drawing on approaches from applied poststructural and queer theory among others, reassess those ideologies, meanings and responses generated by the workings of memory within and over "time". Ultimately, they argue for the inherent instability of the traditional gender-time-memory matrix (within which men are configured as the recorders of "history"and women as the repositories of a more inchoate familial and communal knowledge), showing the Middle Ages as a locus for a far more fluid conceptualization of time and memory than has previously been considered. Elizabeth Cox is Lecturer in Old English at Swansea University; Roberta Magnani is Lecturer in Medieval Literature at Swansea University; Liz Herbert McAvoy is Professor of Medieval Literature at Swansea University. Contributors: Anne E. Bailey, Daisy Black, Elizabeth Cox, Fiona Harris-Stoertz, Ayoush Lazikani, Liz Herbert McAvoy, Pamela E. Morgan, William Rogers, Patricia Skinner, Victoria Turner.…
