Performing Leigh Hunt’s 1840 Play "A Legend of Florence"

Leigh Hunt's authorship of "A legend of Florence" (1840) — a drama inspired by the rich cultural, intellectual, and political climate of Italy — reflects, as Michael Eberle-Sinatra demonstrates in the final essay of the first section, not only a literary exchange between England and Italy, but argues that during the creation of his play, Hunt engaged in his own version of border crossing as he managed the transition between writing about and writing for the stage. A complex maneuver that required Hunt to rech beyond his own intellectual boundaries, the shift from critic to dramatist challenged and enriched his thoughts regarding the work of the theater.

Europe du Sud: Italie, Espagne et Portugal: priorité à l'éducation aux médias

(Excerto) Partant d'une perspective comparative de plusieurs recherches realisees en ltalie au cours des demieres annees sur les mineurs et Ia television, Elisa Manna, de Ia Fondation Censis souligne le besoin pour Ia recherche de rompre avec les hyperspecialisations academiques. Elle propose des pistes de comparaisons et de confrontations de methodes, de techniques et de resultats, sans jamais perdre de vue les recherches empiriques sur le terrain. II est impensable aujourd'hui, souligne Elisa Manna, de continuer a separer, d'un cote le monde institutionnel de Ia culture qui, prive des outils de connaissance necessaires, serait oblige d'agir a l'aveuglette, et d'autre part celui de Ia recherche academique et privee, fragmentee, divisee et frustree par l'impossibilite de faire valoir ses efforts d 'un point de vue operationnel.

Technological innovation in creative clusters. The case of laser in conservation of artworks in Florence

The field of laser application to the restoration and cleaning of cultural assets is amongst the most thriving developments of recent times. Ablative laser technological systems are able to clean and protect inestimable works of art subject to atmospheric agents and degradation over time. This new technology, which has been developing for the last forty year, is now available to restorers and has received a significant success all over Europe. An important contribution in the process of laser innovation has been carried out in Florence by local actors belonging to a creative cluster. The objects of the analysis are the genesis of this innovation in this local Florentine context, and the relationships among the main actors who have contributed in it. The study investigates how culture can play a part in the generation of ideas and innovations, and which are the creative environments that can favour it. In this context, the issue of laser technologies for the restoration of cultural heritage has been analysed as a case study in the various paths taken by the Creative Capacity of the Culture (CCC).
