        La Dolce Vita

        by Gaio Sciloni

        La Dolce Vita - la Cuisine Régionale Italienne  par Gaio Sciloni Gaio Sciloni, célèbre écrivain né en Italie, a offert au lecteur israélien bon nombre d’excellentes traductions des oeuvres d’auteurs et de poètes italiens classiques. Il a consacré plusieurs années d’études à la préparation d’un guide culturel et culinaire, intitulé la Dolce Vita qui fera le bonheur de tous les amoureux de l’Italie. La Dolce Vita n’est pas seulement un livre de cuisine ordinaire, mais plutôt une revue systématique de l’Italie, du Nord au Sud, chaque région étant caractérisée par son paysage, ses traditions et son folklore, et par dessus tout, par sa micro-culture culinaire. Gaio Sciloni, suivant en cela les idées du célèbre auteur italien Pellegrino Artusi, croit lui aussi que la culture locale est inséparable de la cuisine locale. En fait Sciloni ne s’est pas contenté de puiser dans sa très vaste culture dans le domaine de la gastronomie italienne, mais il a étudié un large éventail de sources éthniques. La Dolce Vita a eu le privilège d’être préfacée par le Prof. Franco Massaia, Conseiller Principal du Ministère Italien des Affaires Etrangères pour les Relations Culturelles Internationales dans la région Méditerranée. Les Editions Tamar ont publié une version en hébreu de la Dolce Vita, dans une élégante édition bichrome de 256 pages en format 24x17cm, et celle-ci a connu un très grand succès. Une second édition a d’ailleurs déja été publiée. Le livre est rehaussé d’illustrations, fondées sur des représentations du folklore culinaire régional à travers l’Art italien ancien. Si la possibilité de publier une édition en français de cet ouvrage ou un projet de co-édition vous intéresse, veuillez nous contacter. C'est avec plaisir que nous vous ferons parvenir une documentation supplémentaire.

        Journey in Trumplandia: The Rise of Populism in America

        by Tiberiu Dianu

        The book is a collection of essays about the transformation of America, which has turned from a united nation to one more divided than ever. Some pundits predict that, if things don’t change, another civil war could occur. Have we reached a point of no return? Hopefully, America is mature enough to learn from its mistakes and avoid further scars along its evolving history. "Trumplandia is a welcome addition toward understanding current events, Washington’s international policy, and the present American society; a society polarized and divided as it has not been since the Civil War.” NICHOLAS DIMA, Ph.D., Adjunct Professor and Research Associate, Nelson Institute, James Madison University, Virginia. "The book is fascinating. It provides background to, and insights into [the] current and past political history as well as offering a personal view... of the country and society. Presented in thematic form in chapters and sections, the insights offered provide a suggestive radiography...” Dr. DENNIS DELETANT, OBE, School of Foreign Service, Georgetown University, Washington DC. "There has been this backsliding in... what a truly functioning rule-of-law state is, that has proper separation of co-equal powers, which, if you don’t keep working on that, you backslide. And I am even worried about that here, in the United States right now, about backsliding.” OBIE MOORE, Esq., OLM Advisors LLC, Washington DC “Indeed, Trumplandia should be a welcome addition to any scholar, student or layman’s library, especially in its international edition. If anyone loses sleep over its challenging assertions, then it will have been well worth it.” ERNESTO MORALES HIZON, Ph.D. Candidate in American and Comparative Politics at Claremont Graduate University, Member, Integrated Bar of the Philippines ABOUT THE AUTHOR: TIBERIU DIANU has practiced law in Romania (as a corporate lawyer, judge, senior counselor at the Ministry of Justice, university professor and senior legal researcher), and in the United States (as a legal expert for the judiciary). He published several books and a host of articles in law, politics, and post-communist societies. Tiberiu currently lives and works in Washington, DC.

        Art as worldmaking

        Critical essays on realism and naturalism

        by Malcolm Baker, Andrew Hemingway, Andrew Hemingway, Briony Fer, Joshua Shannon, Adrian Rifkin, Malcolm Baker, Martina Droth, Caroline Arscott, Anne Wagner, Martin Powers, Neil McWilliam, Celeste Brusati, T.J. Clark, Rebecca Zurier, Steve Edwards, Tamar Garb, Lisa Tickner, Alistair Rider, Thomas Crow, Gail Day

        Art as worldmaking is a response to Alex Potts's provocative 2013 book Experiments in modern realism. Twenty essays by leading scholars test Potts's recasting of realism through examinations of art produced in different media and periods, ranging from eighth-century Chinese garden aesthetics to video work by the contemporary Russian collective Radek Community. While the book does not neglect avatars of pictorial realism such as Menzel and Eakins, or the question of nineteenth-century realism's historical antecedents, it is contemporary in orientation in that many contributors are particularly concerned with the questions that sculpture, photography and non-traditional media pose for realism as an aesthetic norm. It will be essential reading for students of art history concerned with art's truth value or more broadly with conceptual problems of representation and the intersections of art and politics.

Australian authors George Johnston and Charmian Clift write, drink and fight. It is a hedonistic time of love, sex and new ideas on the Greek island of Hydra. As the island hums with creativity, Jack and Frieda join the artistic community, hoping to mend their broken marriage. However, Greece is overtaken by a military junta and the artists’ idyll is over.
