Involuntary Dislocation
Renos K. Papadopoulos clearly and sensitively explores the experiences of people who reluctantly abandon their homes, searching for safer lives elsewhere, and provides a detailed guide to the complex experiences of involuntary dislocation. Involuntary Dislocation: Home, Trauma, Resilience, and Adversity-Activated Development identifies involuntary dislocation as a distinct phenomenon, challenging existing assumptions and established positions, and explores its linguistic, historical, and cultural contexts. Papadopoulos elaborates on key themes including home, identity, nostalgic disorientation, the victim, and trauma, providing an in-depth understanding of each contributing factor whilst emp...
Global Rome
Delving into topics from immigration to sustainability, this is "an original, rich, and important contribution to the study of Rome" ( H-Italy). Is twenty-first-century Rome a global city? Is it part of Europe's core or periphery? This volume examines the "real city" beyond Rome's historical center, exploring the diversity and challenges of life in neighborhoods affected by immigration, neoliberalism, formal urban planning, and grassroots social movements. The contributors engage with themes of contemporary urban studies—the global city, the self-made city, alternative modernities, capital cities and nations, urban change from below, and sustainability. Global Rome serves as a provocative introduction to the Eternal City and makes an original contribution to interdisciplinary scholarship.

The Neapolitan Crèche at the Art Institute of Chicago
The 18th-century Neapolitan crèche at the Art Institute of Chicago, which contains over 200 figures arranged in a panorama of street life, represents the pinnacle of a rich artistic heritage. This luxurious catalogue is the first to study the crèche in the context of art and music history. Essays explore the Neapolitan crèche tradition and examine the design of Chicago's example with reference to other important crèches in Europe and the United States. Entries on individual figures identify the characters and types they represent, as well as their social and historical meaning and religious significance. Other entries address groups of figures, animals, and cultural themes present in the crèche. Together the essays and entries highlight the astonishing realism and potent symbolism of these figures, which range from heavenly angels and the Holy Family around the manger to street vendors and revelers feasting, drinking, and dancing in a tavern.

Dislocazione involontaria
«Un'elaborazione sensibile e originale delle complesse esperienze legate al trauma e alla dislocazione, che dà fiducia alla dignità umana e alla capacità di resilienza.» Arvo Pärt Ogni anno crisi climatica e conflitti politici costringono milioni di persone a fuggire dalle proprie case per cercare di ricostruirsi una vita altrove. Con un approccio autenticamente multidisciplinare e fedelmente orientato alla pratica, questo saggio offre una riflessione profonda e innovativa sui molti aspetti legati alla migrazione forzata, che viene qui chiamata «dislocazione involontaria» alla luce di una raffinata disamina lessicale. In pagine illuminanti, in cui confluisce quasi mezzo secolo di esp...
