        MMC EDIZIONI is a publishing house based in Rome.Born in 2001 as a generalist, along the time it has specialized almost exclusively in non-fiction, dedicated in particular (but not only) to the city of Rome.The main series, called "A walk with history" offers an alternative vision of the city through the historical reconnaissance and analysis of some of its urban furnishings that are not taken into consideration such as small fountains, clocks, inscriptions, sacred shrines, plaques. This series stands out for a particular graphic style and for the abundance of photographs, specially made for these books.Other series on Rome are instead dedicated to in-depth studies on specific historical and customs themes, or on the mysterious aspects of the city that also reveal its dark side.In the MMC catalogue are other non-fiction books on topics such as Music, Interculture, Anthropology and a series of stories for children encouraging solidarity, non-violence and respect for the environment

This book provides fresh insights in responding to these issues.This book examines alternative theories and the empirical testing of trade-offs we make in life amongwork, leisure, travel, and personal maintenance actions and how our plans relate to what we actuallydo.

        Tourism Behaviour

        Travellers' Decisions and Actions

        by Edited by Roger StG March, Arch G Woodside

        Consumers' planned behaviour is often very different to what is actually carried out. Consumer plans can relate to four behaviours: planned and done (deliberate strategies), planned and not done (unrealized strategies), unplanned and done (emergent strategies) and unplanned and not done (unused strategies). This book examines alternative theories and the empirical testing of how planning relates to doing. It considers tourist spending, length of stay, attractions, destinations, accommodation and activities and looks at how marketing strategies affect consumer plans.

        »Schlage nur eine Weltsaite an«

        Briefe 1828–1855

        by Robert Schumann, Karin Sousa, Karin Sousa, Rüdiger Görner, Karin Sousa

        Ach ja – von den Schmerzen und Freuden, die die Zeit bewegen, der Musik zu erzählen, dies, fühl ich, ist mir vor vielen Andern zuerteilt worden.« Robert Schumanns Lieder und Klavierstücke, seine Orchesterwerke und Kammermusik zählen zu den bedeutendsten Werken der musikalischen Romantik. Seine Liebe zu Clara Wieck ist ein Stoff, aus dem Filme gemacht wurden. Aber neben Mendelssohn ist Schumann wohl auch der gebildetste und wortgewandteste aller romantischen Komponisten. Die Musikkritiken, die er, der nach einer Fingerlähmung die Pianistenkarriere aufgeben mußte, in seiner Neuen Zeitschrift für Musik schrieb, zeugen von seinem avancierten musikalischen ebenso wie literarischen Geschmack. Seine Briefe verfügen über ein breites Spektrum an Ausdrucksmöglichkeiten: von der lyrischen Emphase bis zur analytischen Schärfe. Der Band enthält ausführliche Anmerkungen, ein Namenregister sowie Verzeichnisse der Briefe und der Werke Robert Schumanns. Diese Briefausgabe ist die einzige derzeit lieferbare Auswahlausgabe. Sie dokumentiert alle wichtigen Stationen in Schumanns Leben und Schaffen – die Entscheidung für den Musikerberuf, erste Erfolge, den Kampf um die Liebe seines Lebens – in Briefen an die Familie, an Freunde und Musikerkollegen und natürlich an Clara.

        Border images, border narratives

        The political aesthetics of boundaries and crossings

        by Johan Schimanski, Jopi Nyman

        This interdisciplinary volume explores the role of images and narratives in different borderscapes. Written by experienced scholars in the field, Border images, border narratives provides fresh insight into how borders, borderscapes, and migration are imagined and narrated in public and private spheres. Offering new ways to approach the political aesthetics of the border and its ambiguities, this volume makes a valuable contribution to the methodological renewal of border studies and presents ways of discussing cultural representations of borders and related processes. Influenced by the thinking of philosopher Jacques Rancière, this timely volume argues that narrated and mediated images of borders and borderscapes are central to the political process, as they contribute to the public negotiation of borders and address issues such as the in/visiblity of migrants and the formation of alternative borderscapes. The contributions analyse narratives and images in literary texts, political and popular imagery, surveillance data, border art, and documentaries, as well as problems related to borderland identities, migration, and trauma. The case studies provide a highly comparative range of geographical contexts ranging from Northern Europe and Britain, via Mediterranean and Mexican-USA borderlands, to Chinese borderlands from the perspectives of critical theory, literary studies, social anthropology, media studies, and political geography.
