Le statistiche italiane sull'emigrazione per il periodo precedente la grande guerra sottostimano largamente il fenomeno, soprattutto per quanto attiene i movimenti di popolazione in ambito continentale; i dati ufficiali francesi sottovalutano anch'essi l'importanza dell'immigrazione. Questa ricerca si propone di valutare la reale entità del fenomeno migratorio attraverso lo studio analitico della demografia di un luogo di arrivo. I dati sono stati assunti alla fonte, prevalentamente su documenti francesi.

Artisan 2001, cm.24x27, pp.216, ill.col. hardcover, dustjacket. The luxury sailing yacht--that sublime marriage of form and function--is plush yet sleek, indulgent yet built for speed. Thirteen of the very finest of these boats are displayed here, from lovingly restored schooners and cutters built in the early twentieth century to the new generation of high-tech yachts. The author, a sailor himself, discusses each boat's history and characteristics, above and belowdecks, including her origins, racing record, and more intricate explanations about her fittings and design elements. Lush photographs show the boats under sail, as well as details like the original fireplace in the nearly century-old, 147-foot Orion; the bronze blocks on Linnet's deck, re-created from designer Nathanael Herreshoff's 1904 drawings; and the Mariette's forward cockpit, resplendent with monogrammed cushions, designed to keep passengers dry during a close-hauled tack.

Proverbs Chap. III ver:16 : Length of days is in her right hand, In her left hand riches and honor. William Hogarth's Industry and Idleness: Plate 12. Engraving. September 30, 1747, cm.40x27, su foglio di cm.62x48, incorniciato con cornice in legno di cm. 66x50. In William Hogarth's twelfth and last scene of Industry and Idleness, the newly elected Lord Mayor of London sits in his coach and leads a procession of guilds displaying various banners. Spectators watch and cheer. Others, however, occupy themselves in activities such as drinking or love making. To the right a comic group of city militia mill about. One stupidly discharges his gun. Besides them a boy holds a broadsheet entitled, "A full and true Account of ye Ghost of Tho. Idle". The gala occasion is observed the Prince of Wales and his peers, who occupy the upper balcony. William Hogarth's moral statement and primary purpose in this series is to illustrate the benefits of sincere and honest work. This is truely empathized in this final plate.
