Abstract: Il volume presenta significativi approcci al tema dell’acqua in Italia e in Inghilterra nel XIX secolo. Alle acque lombarde per l’agricoltura e il trasporto celebrate da C. Cantù e da C. Cattaneo e all’auspicio di C. Tommasi-Crudeli per un efficiente controllo delle acque urbane, fanno riscontro la proposta di inventario dell’acqua come componente della ricchezza nazionale di A. Marshall e l’ampio prospetto delle acque ludiche di E. Howard per la sua città giardino. I testi di Marshall e di Howard sono tradotti per la prima volta in italiano. / The volume presents a number of significant approaches to the issue of water in Italy and England during the 19th century. The use of Lombard water for agriculture and transport celebrated by Cantù and Cattaneo as well as Tommasi-Crudeli’s wish for an efficient monitoring of urban drainage, find correspondence in Marshall’s proposal for a water inventory as part of national wealth and in Howard’s ample use of recreational waters for his garden city. The texts by Marshall and Howard are translated to Italian for the first time.

#280602 Storia Antica
Phoenix 2000, cm.13x20, pp.XX,624, softcover. The tragic, compelling story of the last Tsar and his family Nicholas & Alexandra is the internationally famous biography from Pulitzer prize-winner Robert Massie. Massie shows conclusively how the personal curse of the young heir's haemophilia, and the decisive influence it brought Rasputin, became fatally linked with the collapse of Imperial Russia. As an engrossing account of one of the century's most dramatic episodes - and an intimate portrait of two people caught at the centre of a maelstrom - Nicholas & Alexandra is unlikely ever to be surpassed. 'The story of the last Tsar has probably never been so powerfully - and so accurately - told' Guardian
