Venice
More than 400 bridges stitch together the islands that make up this dream of a city. The sublime setting ennobles Venice's palaces, churches and piazzas. For art lovers, a survey of the local talent -- Titian, Bellini, Tintoretto, Lotto and Canaletto -- is worth the trip. Take a cappuccino break in Piazza San Marco, Europes most sumptuous square.
Derivative Lives
The title of this book, Derivative Lives, alludes to the challenge of finding one's way within the contemporary market of virtually limitless information and claims to veracity. Amid this profusion of options, it is easy to feel lost in spaces of uncertainty where biographical truth teeters between the real and the imaginative. The title thus also points to the prolific market of biographical novels that openly and intentionally play in the speculative space between the real and the fictional. Drawing on theories of risk and uncertainty, Derivative Lives considers the surge in biofiction in Spain and globally, relating literary expression to concepts such as circumstantiality, derivatives, speculation, and game studies.
