The Palgrave Handbook of Digital and Public Humanities
This handbook brings together recent international scholarship and developments in the interdisciplinary fields of digital and public humanities. Exploring key concepts, theories, practices and debates within both the digital and public humanities, the handbook also assesses how these two areas are increasingly intertwined. Key questions of access, ownership, authorship and representation link the individual sections and contributions. The handbook includes perspectives from the Global South and presents scholarship and practice that engage with a multiplicity of underrepresented ‘publics’, including LGBTQ+ communities, ethnic and linguistic minorities, the incarcerated and those affected by personal or collective trauma. Chapter “The Role of Digital and Public Humanities in Confronting the Past: Survivors’ of Ireland’s Magdalene Laundries Truth Telling’” is available open access under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License via link.springer.com.
Adaptation as a Transmedial Process
This miscellaneous volume aims at offering a fresh and updated view of adaptation and transmedial practices. In the wake of Linda Hutcheon’s groundbreaking study, A Theory of Adaptation (2006), it discusses theories and exemplary case studies from different critical perspectives and points of view assessing past and present trends, and envisioning future prospects. The volume is divided in three macro-sections: Theories explores some methodological and theoretical facets of adaptation; Practices I includes analyses of literary, cinematographic and theatrical texts; Practices II discusses transmedial examples relating to arts. The book ends with the interview with the Czech-German artist Michael Bielický, a pioneer in the use of multiple media (especially digital ones).

Aesthetics, Philosophy and Martin Creed
What is the future of conceptualism? What expressions can it take in the 21st century? Is there a new role for aesthetic experience in art and, if so, what is that role exactly? Aesthetics, Philosophy and Martin Creed uses one of this generation's most important and influential artists to address themes crucial to contemporary aesthetics. Working in an impressive variety of artistic media, Creed represents a strikingly innovative take on conceptualism. Through his ingenious and thought-provoking work, a team of international philosophers, jurists and art historians illustrate how Creed epitomizes several questions central to philosophical aesthetics today and provides a glimpse of the future...
Transcultural Italies
The history of Italian culture stems from multiple experiences of mobility and migration, which have produced a range of narratives, inside and outside Italy. This collection interrogates the dynamic nature of Italian identity and culture, focussing on the concepts and practices of mobility, memory and translation. It adopts a transnational perspective, offering a fresh approach to the study of Italy and of Modern Languages.
Las Historias de Venus
La subasta de un enigmático cuadro renacentista, el de una Venus y Cupido, abre los arcanos de sus fantásticas historias a un coleccionista que se empeñará en descubrirlas, enmarañadas como estaban con la suya propia. Es la historia real de un cuadro y de las tantas vidas que a lo largo de cinco siglos cruzaron sus destinos en un ajedrez tan complejo como sorprendente. La obra nos ofrece un Vívido recorrido por el Renacimiento en Mantua y Venecia, pasando por los brillantes momentos de la Ilustración en un pequeño principado alemán y sufriendo las alternativas de los grandes conflictos bélicos. Sus páginas, animadas por personajes tales como Isabella d"Este, Giulia Gonzaga, Voltaire y los Thyssen, convocan como leitmotiv una profecía de la religiosa Osanna Andreasi, una de las pocas licencias que el autor se concede en el rigor histórico que caracteriza la obra.

Metamorph
Metamorfosi è una parola chiave della nostra cultura figurativa: le forme prodotte da tecnologie meccaniche sono fisse, stabili e solide; le forme prodotte da tecnologie elettroniche sono volubili; cambiano e si trasformano incessantemente, talvolta per scelta, talvolta per caso. Il mondo meccanico produce oggetti; il mondo elettronico produce sequenze di numeri, a loro volta generatrici di oggetti. Ma il prodotto finale di un processo digitale non è mai un prodotto finito. È sempre lʼepifania occasionale ed effimera di un processo algoritmico che può generarne altri, in numero illimitato e tutti diversi, intenzionalmente o imprevedibilmente. Il futuro approderà a Venezia con una serie di quaranta sale concerti (Frank Gehry, Jean Nouvel, Rafael Moneo, Zaha Hadid, Renzo Piano, Calatrava, Richard Meier, Arato Isozaki, Peter Eisenman), con edifici basati su superficie piegate e incurvate (Vito Acconci Studio, Diller e Scofido, Roto Architetcs, Bernard Tschumi, Ten Arquitectos) e con iperstrutture di grande potenziale (Alvaro Siza, Mario Bellini, Coop Himmelblau, Alsop, OMA).
