Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - This book tackles photography's role during Robert Louis Stevenson's travels throughout the Pacific Island region and is the first study of his family's previously unpublished photographs. Cutting across disciplinary boundaries, the book integrates photographs with letters, non-fiction, and poetry, and includes much unpublished material. The original readings of photographs and non-fiction highlight Stevenson's engagement with colonial ideology and reality and advance new arguments about Victorian travel, settlement, and colonialisms in the Pacific. Like the Stevensons, the book moves from the Marquesas to the atolls of the Gilbert Islands in Micronesia; from the Kingdom of Hawai'i's political ambitions to Samoan plantations and the Stevensons' settlement at Vailima. Central to this study is the notion that Pacific history and Pacific Island cultures matter to the interpretation of Stevenson's work, and a rigorous historical and cultural contextualization ensures that local details structure literary and photographic interpretation. The book's historical grounding is key to its insightful conclusions regarding travel, settlement, photography, and colonialism.…

Brossura. Condizione: new. A cura di Manfredi A. e Monti C. M.Padova, 2007; br., pp. 722, cm 28x34.(Medioevo e Umanesimo). Giuseppe Billanovich è morto il 2 febbraio 2000, dopo aver insegnato per oltre 40 anni nelle Univer-sità Cattoliche di Friburgo e di Milano, dove ha ri-coperto, a partire dal 1956, la prima cattedra isti-tuita in Italia di Filologia medioevale e umanistica. Ricercatore e maestro di risonanza mondiale, inci-sivo innovatore negli studi sul Medioevo e sull'Umanesimo - da lui percorsi in perfetta e co-stante continuità, e con particolare riguardo alla fi-gura di Francesco Petrarca -, ha educato genera-zioni di studiosi. Già nel 1984 ha ricevuto, al com-pimento dei 70 anni, un'ampia raccolta di studi in onore. Pur uscito pochi anni dopo dai ruoli universi-tari, Billanovich ha continuato con straordinaria vi-vacità il suo magistero di studioso, coinvolgendo nei suoi settori di ricerca anche allievi piú giovani, che lo hanno conosciuto e ne hanno seguito le orme, accogliendone la straordinaria e coinvolgente fe-condità scientifica.
