Paolo Cornaglia"I giardini e il parco del Castello di Agliè" (1624-1940). Dall'impianto formale al disegno paesaggisticoOlschki Editorewww.olschki.itA cura di Paolo Cornaglia e Marco Ferraril complesso di Agliè costituisce forse il tassello più prezioso delle Residenze Reali Sabaude. Il giardino vede, nei secoli, il passaggio dall'impianto formale seicentesco alla trasformazione settecentesca su modelli francesi, fino alle modifiche paesaggistiche ottocentesche. Ogni intervento si lega ai precedenti, lasciandoci in eredità relazioni raffinate tra palazzo, terrazze, giardini, parco e tenuta, gestite da scaloni, scalinate, rampe, fontane, punti di vista e prospettive. Un patrimonio ricco e perfettamente conservato, illuminato dal fascino intatto delle epoche che ha attraversato.«Tra le Residenze Sabaude, il Castello di Agliè con i giardini e il parco costituisce sicuramente una delle più preziose eredità».Direttore delle Residenze Reali Sabaude e dei Musei Nazionali del Piemonte.Paolo Cornaglia è professore associato di Storia dell'architettura presso il Politecnico di Torino. I suoi ambiti di ricerca riguardano le residenze di corte, i giardini storici, l'architettura in Europa centrale. In questo quadro, ha pubblicato tra gli altri: Giuseppe Battista Piacenza e Carlo Randoni. I Reali Palazzi tra Torino e Genova (1773-2021) (Torino, 2012), e Budapest. Architettura, città e giardini tra XIX e XX secolo (Torino, 2013). Per i tipi di Olschki, ha pubblicato Il giardino francese alla corte di Torino. Da André Le Nôtre a Michel Benard, 1650-1773 (2021), e curato Il giardino del Palazzo Reale di Torino, 1563-1915 (2019). - (febbraio 2025).IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Andreina Contessa"I giardini di Miramare"Da parco eclettico a museo verdeOlschki Editorewww.olschki.itEsito della visione del colto arciduca Ferdinando Massimiliano d'Asburgo, appassionato di scienze e viaggi, il parco-giardino di Miramare costituisce un progetto intelligente e innovativo, che ospita una collezione botanica cosmopolita e il connubio eclettico di diverse concezioni di giardini. Questo libro studia e rivela un luogo spettacolare, a partire dal contesto storico-culturale in cui è stato prodotto a metà dell'Ottocento; il grande lavoro di conservazione e valorizzazione condotto negli ultimi anni ha reso questo giardino storico nazionale un vivace e accogliente museo verde sostenibile, capace di confrontarsi con la contemporaneità.«Il giardino di Ferdinando Massimiliano d'Asburgo è la creazione di un luogo utopico nel quale emerge l'universo dei suoi sogni, un mondo al contempo naturale, artificiale e artistico, nel quale l'arciduca ha dato forma a un proprio ideale di natura, di compimento e di incanto».Andreina Contessa, è stata direttrice del Museo Storico e Parco del Castello di Miramare, è storica dell'arte, specialista in arte medievale e moderna, dirigente museale e curatrice di mostre e allestimenti; si occupa di conservazione e valorizzazione del patrimonio storico-artistico, cura e manutenzione di musei verdi, accessibilità e sostenibilità, coniugando esperienza direttiva di interesse culturale con la passione per la ricerca. Italiana, vive a Trieste dal giugno 2017, dopo un lungo periodo trascorso a Gerusalemme, dove ha studiato e insegnato alla Hebrew University of Jerusalem e lavorato come curatrice museale. Al suo attivo libri e molti saggi apparsi in pubblicazioni scientifiche internazionali. - (aprile 2025) -Andreina Contessa è stata nominata nuova direttrice del polo museale di Firenze che unisce la Galleria dell'Accademia e i Musei del Bargello. La nomina, avvenuta a luglio 2025 per volontà del Ministro della Cultura Alessandro Giuli, segna un nuovo importante incarico per l'esperta di storia dell'arte e curatrice museale, che guiderà il nuovo istituto dopo la recente unione delle due celebri realtà fiorentine. IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

Stefano Fenaroli"Non so come amarlo"I volti di Cristo in Jesus Christ SuperstarAncora Editricewww.ancoralibri.itÈ possibile lasciarsi sorprendere, ancora oggi, da una storia «vecchia» di duemila anni? È questa la sfida raccolta da questo libro, che esamina in tutta la sua profondità artistica e teologica un insolito classico del teatro religioso: Jesus Christ Superstar. L'autore ricerca una nuova prospettiva sulla fede e sulla spiritualità, andando oltre le solite interpretazioni della storia di Gesù. Con nuovi spunti di riflessione sulle dimensioni letterarie e teologiche del musical, Fenaroli esplora i diversi «volti» di Gesù, che parlano di amore, di tradimento e di follia. Un invito a guardare con occhi nuovi alla propria fede, per confrontarsi con la storia di una verità senza tempoStefano Fenaroli, nato a Brescia nel 1990, sposato dal 2019, dopo la maturità classica ha compiuto gli studi di teologia presso la Facoltà Teologica dell'Italia Settentrionale di Milano, dove ha conseguito il dottorato di ricerca con una tesi pubblicata con il titolo La teologia della deep incarnation (Brescia, 2024). Dopo aver insegnato religione cattolica nella diocesi di Brescia per alcuni anni, nel 2019 è assunto come redattore presso l'Editrice Queriniana di Brescia. Scrive e collabora con il sito di divulgazione religiosa «VinoNuovo.it». Per diversi anni ha svolto attività di educatore, animatore e responsabile dell'Azione Cattolica Ragazzi nella parrocchia Santa Maria Assunta di Pisogne (BS).

Transcript:It: Nel cuore di Roma, un ristorante chiamato "Il Castello del Medioevo" era pieno di vita e suoni.En: In the heart of Roma, a restaurant called "Il Castello del Medioevo" was full of life and sounds.It: Le luci soffuse delle lanterne creavano un'atmosfera misteriosa.En: The dim lights of the lanterns created a mysterious atmosphere.It: Le mura di pietra sembravano trasportare i visitatori indietro nel tempo.En: The stone walls seemed to transport the visitors back in time.It: Era Ferragosto, e molti romani approfittavano della giornata festiva per rilassarsi.En: It was Ferragosto, and many Romans were taking advantage of the holiday to relax.It: Giuliano era un giovane pieno di curiosità storica.En: Giuliano was a young man full of historical curiosity.It: Amava tutto ciò che riguardava il medioevo.En: He loved everything about the Middle Ages.It: Con lui c'era Elena, pratica e organizzata, pronta a iniziare lo shopping per il rientro a scuola.En: With him was Elena, practical and organized, ready to start shopping for the return to school.It: Tuttavia, per Giuliano, la giornata doveva iniziare con un'avventura medievale.En: However, for Giuliano, the day had to start with a medieval adventure.It: "Manca poco all'inizio della scuola", disse Elena mentre attraversavano la grande sala del ristorante.En: "School starts soon," said Elena as they walked through the large hall of the restaurant.It: "Dobbiamo comprare zaini e quaderni."En: "We need to buy backpacks and notebooks."It: Il profumo di carne arrosto riempiva l'aria.En: The smell of roast meat filled the air.It: "Elena, guarda!En: "Elena, look!It: Una giostra!"En: A jousting tournament!"It: Giuliano indicò eccitato.En: Giuliano pointed excitedly.It: Un gruppo di cavalieri in armatura si preparava per una finta giostra proprio al centro della sala.En: A group of knights in armor was preparing for a mock joust right in the center of the room.It: "Giuliano, non possiamo perdere tempo", rispose Elena, anche se i suoi occhi brillavano di curiosità.En: "Giuliano, we can't waste time," responded Elena, even though her eyes sparkled with curiosity.It: Ma Giuliano era già vicino alla linea di demarcazione, cercando di trascinare Elena con sé.En: But Giuliano was already near the demarcation line, trying to drag Elena along with him.It: "Questa è una lezione di storia viva!En: "This is a living history lesson!It: Prometto, sarà rapido."En: I promise, it will be quick."It: Elena sospirò, combattuta tra il dovere e il divertimento.En: Elena sighed, torn between duty and fun.It: Alla fine, lasciò che Giuliano la trascinasse in prima fila.En: In the end, she let Giuliano drag her to the front row.It: I cavalieri si sfidarono con finta veemenza.En: The knights challenged each other with mock vehemence.It: Il pubblico applaudì e Giuliano spiegava ogni dettaglio a Elena, rendendo l'esperienza educativa.En: The audience applauded, and Giuliano explained every detail to Elena, making the experience educational.It: "Vedi, quei colori simboleggiano il loro casato", disse.En: "See, those colors symbolize their house," he said.It: Nonostante la sua iniziale resistenza, Elena alla fine si lasciò coinvolgere.En: Despite her initial resistance, Elena eventually got involved.It: Si godette tanto quanto Giuliano lo spettacolo e capì quanto fosse importante concedersi qualche momento di svago.En: She enjoyed the show as much as Giuliano did and understood how important it was to allow yourself some moments of leisure.It: Poi, con la giostra conclusa, si affrettarono a completare lo shopping.En: Then, with the jousting tournament concluded, they hurried to complete the shopping.It: Giusto in tempo, appena prima della chiusura dei negozi.En: Just in time before the stores closed.It: Giuliano trovò il modo di unire il suo amore per il medioevo con le necessità pratiche: comprarono quaderni decorati con stemmi e un astuccio che ricordava un piccolo scrigno medievale.En: Giuliano found a way to combine his love for the Middle Ages with practical needs: they bought notebooks decorated with crests and a pencil case that resembled a small medieval chest.It: Alla fine della giornata, mentre si avviavano verso casa con le borse colme, Giuliano si rese conto dell'importanza di bilanciare interesse e responsabilità.En: At the end of the day, as they headed home with their bags full, Giuliano realized the importance of balancing interests and responsibilities.It: Elena, d'altro canto, imparò ad apprezzare la passione e la spontaneità di Giuliano.En: Elena, on the other hand, learned to appreciate Giuliano's passion and spontaneity.It: Tra risate e storie, una cosa era certa: il nuovo anno scolastico si sarebbe aperto con un entusiasmo tutto nuovo.En: Between laughter and stories, one thing was certain: the new school year would open with a whole new enthusiasm.It: E mentre il sole tramontava su Roma, il riflesso delle mura del "Castello del Medioevo" brillava, come a suggellare la loro giornata speciale.En: And as the sun set over Roma, the reflection of the walls of "Il Castello del Medioevo" shone, as if to seal their special day.

This week, the boys are packing their bags (and maybe a few questionable costumes) as we head to Minnesota for the Lucas Oil Nationals in Brainerd! We're breaking down the on-track action to come, swapping wild stories about the infamous Brainerd Zoo, and catching you up on all the NHRA news and drama from the past week. From horsepower to hilarity, it's all here in this episode of Life's a Drag.

SII INATTACCABILELa vita di un cristiano può essere paragonata esattamente alla costruzione di un Castello. Costruirlo, però, richiede necessariamente delle fasi:1. La scelta della posizioneÈ proprio la scelta della posizione che dava ai popoli l'opportunità di essere ben difesi,e tu, da cristiano, devi scegliere bene il tuo posizionamento, distaccandoti dalle cose materiali a favore di quelle spirituali, radicandoti nella Parola di Dio e nell'Intimità.*2. Altipiani o luoghi facilmente difendibili *I Castelli venivano appositamente costruiti in luoghi facilmente difendibili così che i nemici avessero difficoltà nell'attaccare.È fondamentale che tu costruisca il tuo Castello nel luogo inaccessibile per il nemico, ovvero all'ombra di Dio, riposando in Lui.Salmi 91:1-23. I FossatiIl fossato rivestiva un elemento imprescindibile nella costruzione dei Castelli perché creava un solco ricolmo d'acqua, difficilmente superabile dai nemici.Così come per la costituzione di un fossato, se vuoi essere inattaccabile devi lavorare, affaticarti, scavare per eliminare ciò che non va bene e poi farti riempire dall'acqua dello Spirito Santo che rigenera e porta frutto.Giovanni 7:36-394 Ponti LevatoiOgni Castello difensivo era dotato di un ponte levatoio, un passaggio che consentiva al popolo di entrare nel rifugio e che una volta chiuso, tagliava completamente l'accesso al nemico.Devi, da oggi, tagliare i ponti col tuo passato, ricordando come Pietro nonostante l'accusa per aver tradito Gesù non si fece fermare dal diavolo, l'accusatore per eccellenza, lasciandosi perfezionare da Dio.1 Pietro 5:9-10È una volta che il Castello è costruito e ben saldo che inizia la difesa, una difesa effettuata usando la Parola di Dio, l'Unica spada in grado di allontanare il diavolo.Una difesa che non prescinde dal muoversi tutti insieme, una chiesa unita come un unico corpo che protegge con la preghiera i propri pastori, le proprie guide, i più deboli e gli indifesi.Past Vins10-08-2025

Cominceremo parlando del recente licenziamento del principale responsabile delle statistiche governative negli Stati Uniti, colpevole di aver diffuso dati non graditi al Presidente Trump. Discuteremo anche i paralleli storici che questa vicenda solleva. A seguire, commenteremo la decisione di uno zoo danese di chiedere ai proprietari di animali domestici di donare i loro animali per nutrire i leoni. Nella sezione scientifica, analizzeremo un interessante studio che mette in luce la parentela genetica tra patate e pomodori, nonostante le loro evidenti differenze esteriori. E concluderemo la prima parte del programma con una discussione sulle aste di articoli di moda. Oggetti appartenuti a persone famose vengono venduti a prezzi da capogiro.    La seconda parte della puntata è dedicata alla lingua e alla cultura italiana. L'argomento grammaticale di oggi è Uses of the Future Tense. Ne troverete numerosi esempi nel dialogo che seguirà, incentrato sul Castello di Sammezzano, uno dei luoghi più affascinanti della Toscana. Dopo anni di aste fallite, trattative poco trasparenti e silenzi istituzionali, il castello ha finalmente trovato un nuovo proprietario, deciso a restituirgli splendore. Nel finale, ci concentreremo sull'espressione idiomatica di oggi: essere/stare sulle spine. Il dialogo in cui la utilizzeremo prende spunto da una campagna pubblicitaria decisamente insolita: un enorme cartellone che raffigura una banana gigante, tenuta da una mano femminile, apparso nei pressi della Fontana di Trevi. Una trovata provocatoria che a Roma ha suscitato un mix di risate, perplessità e perfino un bel po' di polemiche. - Trump licenzia la principale responsabile delle statistiche governative per aver diffuso dei dati che a lui non piacevano - Uno zoo danese invita i proprietari a donare i propri animali domestici per nutrire i leoni - Uno studio genetico collega le origini della patata al pomodoro - Una borsa da 8 milioni di euro può essere considerata patrimonio culturale? - Un futuro per l'eclettico castello di Sammezzano - La pubblicità della banana che fa discutere Roma

Calocaerus (Greek: Καλόκαιρος; d. 334 AD) was a Roman usurper who led a short-lived revolt against Emperor Constantine I in Cyprus. Appointed in 330 AD as Magister pecoris camelorum ("Master of the Flock and Camels"), a position with uncertain significance, Calocaerus proclaimed himself emperor in 334 AD. His rebellion, however, was swiftly suppressed by Flavius Dalmatius, Constantine's half-brother, and he was executed in Tarsus. While often dismissed as an inconsequential footnote, the context of his revolt raises intriguing questions. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Maria Castello, whose research sheds new light on this period. Maria suggests that Calocaerus' rebellion might have been more significant than previously thought. The timing, occurring shortly after a devastating earthquake, and the dramatic manner of his execution hint at broader implications.

If you head away from the hustle and bustle of the Piazza San Marco (St Mark's Square), you'll head into the stranger, more magical part of Venice. It's in the tangle of narrow streets and courts that you enter the realm of Venetian legend. It's difficult to know how many of them have any basis in fact. One legend sees the Devil face off with legendary composer, Vivaldi. Another sees the Devil try to snatch the soul of the first person to cross the Rialto Bridge - a bridge he created. Yet another involves a fisherman and his mermaid bride, which I covered in Rebel Folklore. I've also covered some Venetian creepy ghost stories before. Yet this next legend even has physical evidence to testify to its occurrence. Or does it? Let's explore the legend behind the carvings found on a fabulous building in Castello in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore!
