        El rapto de Eloisa (The abduction of Eloisa)

        by Jorge Esquinca, Chiara Carrer

        A girl and her mother, three crows, spikes on a field, and clouds draw the first scene. But the girl, like all children, expect her great adventure of being lost. The mistery kidnaps her. It leads her to an underground dream where the dream is reality and darkness is clear as a diamond light. Oneiric, musical story, opened to “what is heard inside”, this book invites us to discover that beyond the veil that is spread between the world and the things, “each sleeping seed, each root, each stem, every flower that rises,” and us, entirely.

        Una cabeza distinta (A different head)

        by Luis Panini, Chiara Carrer

        This child tells us that he is not happy with the head that he has. He thinks it is a wrong head. The parents, after listening to him, take him to a specialist, who agrees with the little one. A mysterious man dressed in black supplies him with heads in exchange for his own. The child tries several, until he finds the one he was looking for. A reindeer head, a crocodile head, a whisk head: the narrator child and protagonist of this story tells us about his disagreement with the head he has and the vicissitudes that he has to go through to find the head with which he will finally agree: the head of a grown man, of a mathematician. This is a story of search for identity and growth, developed with fine fantasy and humor, with the wisdom of someone he has sought and perhaps already found.

        Pensar el espacio. Reflejos, superficies y colores (Thinking the space. Reflections, sufaces and colors)

        by Chiara Carrer

        The line is the protagonist of this book. She explores the pages and forms figures, colors herself, creates landscapes, characters and, with them, stories that narrate the reflections and joys that creation brings. This book, the third in a growing collection, is a catalog of the possibilities that lie at the base of all art. In the blank pages of this book, lines, figures, shadows, textures, colors, unpublished worlds were born that, in their capricious forms, hide beings that reflect on everything visible, on everything that surrounds them and is the framework for their adventures, which are the adventures of creative thinking in all its simple splendor: space: line, movement, rhythm: seeing, looking, reading: imagining, thinking, doing. Here everything is created and everything is arranged for the creation of the reader, the artist.

        Christian Dualist Heresies in the Byzantine World, c. 650-c. 1450

        by Janet Hamilton, Bernard Hamilton

        Christian dualism originated in the reign of Constans II (641-68). It was a popular religion, which shared with orthodoxy an acceptance of scriptual authority and apostolic tradition and held a sacramental doctrine of salvation, but understood all these in a radically different way to the Orthodox Church. One of the differences was the strong part demonology played in the belief system. This text traces, through original sources, the origins of dualist Christianity throughout the Byzantine Empire, focusing on the Paulician movement in Armenia and Bogomilism in Bulgaria. It presents not only the theological texts, but puts the movements into their social and political context.

        Italian graphic design

        Culture and practice in Milan, 1930s-60s

        by Chiara Barbieri

        Italian graphic design offers a new perspective on the subject by exploring the emergence and articulation of graphic design practice, from the interwar period through to the appearance of an international graphic design discourse in the 1960s. The book asks how graphic designers learned their trade and investigates the ways in which they organised and made their practice visible while negotiating their collective identity with neighbouring practices such as typography, advertising and industrial design. Attention is drawn to everyday design practice, educational issues, mediating channels, networks, design exchange, organisational strategies and discourses on modernism. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources and placing an emphasis on visual analysis, this book provides a model for a contextualised graphic design history as an integral part of the history of design and visual culture.

        Gedichte

        by Christian Lehnert

        Christian Lehnert ist ein Dichter, der sich Zeit läßt, einer, für den Zeit offenbar in einem ganz anderen Rhythmus verläuft. Das mag damit zusammenhängen, daß die Orte seiner Gedichte mit dem hiesigen Alltag zunächst wenig zu tun zu haben scheinen: es sind Orte der geschichtlichen Überlieferung, der Bibel, Orte in Palästina, im Nahen Osten, in Spanien - Stationen seines Lebenswegs, der den noch nicht 35jährigen von Sachsen aus in die Ferne führte und wieder zurück in einen kleinen Ort bei Dresden, wo Christian Lehnert heute als Pfarrer arbeitet. Lehnert hört "auf die Sätze, die aus der Stille heraufsickern", er gibt dem Schläfer poetische Stimme, dem Soldaten, dem Physiker oder dem taubstummen Tänzer, besingt den Vulkan, die Autobahn, die Brache in einer Sprache äußerster Verdichtung, die nie auf Effekte aus ist.
