L'Apoxyomenos, uno dei più importanti reperti di arte antica mai recuperati, ha certamente arricchito il patrimonio culturale croato. Dopo due millenni di permanenza sul fondale marino è stato finalmente riportato alla luce del sole grazie alla casuale scoperta del subacqueo belga Rene' Wouters. L'Apoxyomenos è l'atleta che pulisce lo strumento con cui si deterge il sudore dopo una gara e rappresenta un momento di attenzione, di cura verso un oggetto d'uso quotidiano ma, insieme, una scena di concentrazione dopo la competizione. A partire dal soggetto che rappresenta, fino al modo e al luogo in cui è avvenuto il suo ritrovamento, dalle delicate operazioni di restauro, fino all'esposizione nelle sale di Palazzo Medici Riccardi a Firenze, il bronzo di Lussino può davvero rappresentare un richiamo a una felicità sana, fatta di elementi essenziali, che la realtà contemporanea ci chiede di riscoprire e che rappresentano valori imprescindibili di una cultura classica mediterranea. Disponibile anche in lingua inglese.

New York, Nan A. Talese, Doubleday 2000, cm.17x24, pp. viii,289,(7), legatura ed. cartonata bicolore, titoli in argento al dorso, sopraccoperta fig. a colori. A stint in the army and a broken heart lead Kevin Patterson to the dock of a sailboat brokerage on Vancouver Island, where he stands contemplating the romance of the sea and his heartfelt desire to get away. By the end of the day, he finds himself the neophyte owner of a sailboat called the Sea Mouse. He also has a plan: to sail to Tahiti and back, and burn away his failings in hard miles at sea. First he recruits a traveling companion, another brokenhearted guy who at least knows how to sail. They set out like the Two Stooges-Seasick and Slapstick. Days without wind are days to kick back on the deck with a beer and a man-versus-nature adventure book that valorizes their journey into an essential quest for manhood. But eventually the voyage begins to take on a sharper edge. On a relentless beat across the South Pacific, they run across one solitary male sailor after another on the lam, not heroes but refugees. Both the literature and the reality of masculine adventure start to pall, and Patterson begins to long for home. But to get there, he faces the toughest of trials, single-handedly sailing the Sea Mouse across the North Pacific and through a four-day gale, conscious that no one on earth knows where he is or that he might die. The illusion that men are best tested by loneliness and adversity cracks in the force of the wind and the terrifying beat of the water, and The Water In Between becomes a hymn, not to running away but to heading home.

Traduzione di Fleury Mottelay. New York, Dover Publications 1991, cm.14x21, pp.368, brossura, copertina figurata a colori, Testo in inglese. Much of modern science is based upon the theories and discoveries of William Gilbert, the brilliant English physician and physicist who was the first great experimental scientist. Gilbert was the first to use the word "electricity," to recognize mass as distinct from weight, to discover the effect of heat upon magnetic bodies, to differentiate clearly between static electricity and magnetism, and to explain phenomena of terrestrial magnetism in terms of the earth as a giant magnet. In 1600 he published De Magnete in Latin. As lively and entertaining as it was scientifically scrupulous, it summarized everything that had previously been known about electricity and magnetism, founded a new science and earned Gilbert the title of "the father of modern electricity." In it Gilbert explores magnetism and electricity, lodestones, phenomena of magnetism, direction of the earth's magnetic lines of force, variation in the compass, dip, the concept of the earth as a giant magnet, and much else. This Dover edition is a complete, unabridged reprinting of the definitive English translation of De Magnete prepared by Dr. P. Fleury Mottelay. Dr. Mottelay has added a number of footnotes that explain points that might be obscure to today's readers, who will find in this historically important text invaluable insights into the origins of modern science and physics. Translation by P. F. Mottelay. Biographical introduction. 90 illustrations.
