Picta Nilotica Romana presents an in-depth analysis of Roman paintings with a Nilotic theme. The first part of the study introduces the classical texts on Egypt and provides an overview of landscape depiction in Roman art. After an outline of methodology, an iconographic-archaeological catalogue of the 74 paintings is developed, founded on specific scientific criteria, with a classification into three categories according to iconographic composition. The corpus is followed by an analysis of the archaeological contexts in which these paintings are found, an analysis of Nilotic iconographies and a definition of the 'Nilotic landscape'. The volume is also completed by an iconographic apparatus and several maps showing geographical and chronological spread.

Republican orthodoxy does not theoretically recognize political dignity in any intermediate body between free individuals, equal and stripped of any particularism, and the sovereign nation. It is for this reason that until today, the French public discussion is marked by a deep-rooted suspicion of any "communitarianism", and by the proscription of the very concept of multicultural politics. But were the policies actually followed by republican France consistent with the proclaimed principles? And is it really possible to say that cultural identities have never been publicly "recognized"? Through a multidisciplinary investigation, the aim is to investigate the ambiguous relationship between theory and practice in the republican management of cultural plurality. L'ortodossia repubblicana non riconosce teoricamente dignità politica ad alcun corpo intermedio tra gli individui liberi, eguali e spogliati di ogni particolarismo, e la nazione sovrana. È per questo che sino al giorno d'oggi, la discussione pubblica francese è segnata da un radicato sospetto nei confronti di ogni «comunitarismo», e dalla proscrizione del concetto stesso di politica multiculturale. Ma le politiche concretamente seguite dalla Francia repubblicana sono state coerenti con i principi proclamati? Ed è davvero possibile affermare che le identità culturali non siano mai state pubblicamente «riconosciute»? Attraverso un'indagine pluridisciplinare, ci si propone di indagare l'ambigua relazione esistente tra la teoria e la pratica nella gestione repubblicana della pluralità culturale.

Due miliardi e mezzo di utenti internet, oltre un miliardo di account Facebook, 550 milioni di profili Twitter. Che parlano, discutono, si confrontano sui temi più svariati. Un flusso in continuo divenire di informazioni che dà sostanza ogni giorno al mondo dei Big Data. Ma come si analizza concretamente il “sentiment” della Rete? Quali sono i pregi e i limiti dei diversi metodi esistenti? E a quali domande possiamo dare una risposta? Dopo aver presentato le varie tecniche di analisi testuale applicate ai social media, questo libro discute di come l’informazione presente in Rete sia in grado di aiutarci a meglio comprendere il presente e a fare previsioni sul futuro riguardo a una molteplicità di fenomeni sociali, che spaziano dall’andamento dei mercati finanziari, alla diffusione di malattie, alle rivolte e ai sommovimenti popolari fino ai risultati dei talent show, prima di concentrarsi su due casi specifici: l’andamento della felicità degli italiani giorno per giorno, e i risultati delle campagne elettorali in Francia, Stati Uniti e Italia tra il 2012 e il 2013.
