Corsi di filosofia. Vol. II.

Editi a cura di Mario Sina, Marco Ballardin e Elena Rapetti. Firenze, Olschki Ed. 2011, cm 17 x 24, xiv-522 pp. Corrispondenze (le) letterarie, scientifiche ed erudite dal Rinascimento all'età moderna - Subsidia, 12. I corsi di J.-R. Chouet, che insegnò nell’Accademia di Ginevra (1669-1686), dopo aver insegnato in quella di Saumur (1664-1669), vengono qui editi per la prima volta integralmente. Nel primo volume sono raccolti il Syntagma logicum e la Brevis Introductio ad Metaphysicam; nel secondo il Syntagma physicum, il Tractatus de rebus viuentibus siue animatis e la Pneumatologia in compendium redacta. Un’ampia introduzione, dedicata all’influsso esercitato nella formazione filosofica di Chouet sia dalla tradizione aristotelica sia dai novatores, contribuisce all’individuazione delle fonti dell’insegnamento di questo maestro. / The courses of J.-R. Chouet, professor at the Academies of Saumur and Geneva, are published here for the first time in complete form. The first volume presents Syntagma logicum and Brevis Introductio ad Metaphysicam; the second presents Syntagma physicum, Tractatus de rebus viuentibus siue animatis and Pneumatologia in compendium redacta. The introduction, indicating the sources of his teaching, highlights the influence of both the Aristotelian tradition and the novatores on his philosophical formation.

Photographs by Alex Ramsay. London, Thames and Hudson 2001, cm.26x32,5, pp.208 ill.a colori. legatura editoriale cartonata, sopraccoperta figurata a colori. Author of the highly successful The Most Beautiful Villages of Tuscany, James Bentley, along with photographer Alex Ramsay, has now turned his attention to more extensive, though equally beautiful, Tuscan communities. Travelling from north to south of the region, as in the Villages volume, we encounter first the towns with substantial Etruscan and Romanesque features, then the walled towns of central Tuscany, followed by the coastal and thermal communities of the south. The country towns described and photographed in this book have been selected not only to exemplify the remarkable variety of this part of Italy but also because they embody its altogether exceptional artistic, gastronomic and cultural heritage. Twenty of the most beautiful towns of this opulent land are treated in this visual and textual feast by Alex Ramsay and James Bentley, which is completed by a guide to the principal sights, events, hotels and restaurants of each town. The whole volume makes a wonderful companion to The Most Beautiful Villages of Tuscany.
