‎LYOD, FRANK - PARAMOUNT.‎

‎Wells Fargo (Un mondo che sorge).‎

‎Paramount, Usa, 1937. Fotobusta, colore, cm 49,5 x 70. Strappi marginali. Tra il 1840 e il 1865, la Wells Fargo divenne la prima ditta di diligenze a collegare la costa statunitense occidentale a quella orientale. Non tutto andò per il verso giusto, e Ramsay MacKay (Joel McCrea), ideatore dell'impresa, dovette risolvere più di un problema.Il film racconta la saga della Wells Fargo, la ditta di trasporti con diligenze che per prima stabilì un collegamento fra la costa atlantica e il Pacifico. L'azione copre circa trent'anni, dalla febbre dell'oro in California fino alla chiusura della frontiera del West. Western di stampo classico e dal taglio introspettivo che si prefigge di riflettere sulla conquista territoriale come sfida personale. Girato con dovizia di dettagli e una notevole ricostruzione storica, "Un mondo che sorge" non riesce a staccarsi da una certa esaltazione nazionalista che lo rende un inno al patriottismo americano. Il regista lavora su stereotipi e poco sulla personalità dei suoi personaggi, che risultano privi di sfumature e omologati gli uni agli altri. Film ottimo dal punto di vista produttivo ma carente sul piano dei contenuti. .‎

‎M. AMIN ABDULLAH.‎

‎The idea of universality of ethical norms in Ghazali & Kant.‎

‎Very Good English Paperback. Cr. 8vo. (20 x 14 cm). In English. [xvi], 296 p. The idea of universality of ethical norms in Ghazali & Kant. This book deals with the theory of ethics, as it is formulated by Ghazali and Immanuel Kant. Their theory of ethics is critically examined to delinate its similarities, differences and consequences. Kant's rational ethics, in essence, is only the consequence of having such an Analytical Method in the basic framework. The term 'rational' here is not intended at all to leave no room for religious ethics. It is rather intended to emphasize the active, dynamic and autonomous role of moral agents in attaining virtues. While Ghazali's mystical ethics is merely intended to save the individual in the hereafter based on the teaching of a particular religious teaching. He does not concern to build such a rigorous methodology in ethics which is applicaple to human beings in general. His concern is mainly to defend a particular religious ethics.‎
