Working within an Aristotelian framework Porzio compares the positions of ancient schoolsexplicitly engaging Stoic and Platonic currentswhile weaving ethical psychological and theological considerations into a systematic argument about deliberation habit and moral agency.Dedicated to Lelio Laelius Torelli jurist and prominent Florentine administrator the treatise reflects the intellectual culture of Medici Florence where classical moral philosophy and the formation of civic virtue were live questions in academic and courtly debate.

1570Rarissima carta dell’isola, datata il lastra 1570. Rappresentata circondata dalla flotta di navi della Repubblica di Venezia la carta è orientata con il Sud in alto. Carta anonima e priva di dati editoriali, che segue nella morfologia la carta del monogrammista PS e tutte le sue derivazioni. L’aspetto interessante che mostra questa carta, è dovuto al contesto storico; l’isola è rappresentata con la flotta veneziana chierata a difesa contro gli assalti dei turchi. L’opera, datata al 1570, viene attribuita a Nicolò Nelli per evidenti ragioni stilistiche e per le analoghe carte su Cipro e Creta, che recano la sua firma. La mappa si trova inserita in alcune raccolte cinquecentesche, e viene di seguito pubblicata nel Isole che son da Venetia nella Dalmatia et per tutto l’arcipelago fino a Costantinopoli, edito da Simone Pinargenti a Venezia nel 1573. L’opera fu realizzata in stretta concorrenza con l’analoga raccolta del Camocio Isole Famose, e raccoglie carte incise da Nicolò Nelli, Natale Bonifacio e dal Pinargenti stesso. I pochi esemplari noti della raccolta sono spesso diversi tra loro, e contengono un numero variabile di carte. Magnifico esemplare, in straordinario stato conservativo. This very-rare loose-sheet map of Corfu carries at the lower right hand corner the date of the publication, 1570. Like the larger maps of The IATO these smaller ones were first issued for a loose sheet circulation, and then assembled in booklet form for interested customer. The island is shown surrounded by an armada of Venetian war ships. The map is oriented with south at the top and its shape is based on the Ferrando Bertelli map of Kerkyra (1564). Sometimes the map appear in the rare collection by Simone Pinargenti “Isole che son da Venetia nella Dalmatia et per tutto l’arcipelago fino a Costantinopoli” (1573). Nicolò Nelli (1530 ca – 1573) was venetian engraver of maps, portraits, religious subject and prints. He also traded in prints and published the works of Giovanni Battista Fontana and Giorgio Ghisi and had a business relationship with Bertelli en Zaltieri. Copperplate, with full margins, very good condition. Very rare. Tavernari (2014): n. 65; Zacharakis (1992): n. 1756; Zacharakis (2009): n. 2692.
1570Carta geografica dell’isola di Creta firmata e datata in lastra dal Nelli. La carta dell’isola di Creta di Nicolò Nelli è basata sul modello di Zorzi/Pagano del 1538. Differisce per l’orientazione, qui con l’est in alto come in molte altre carte veneziane del periodo. L’isola è rappresentata con la flotta veneziana chierata a difesa contro gli assalti dei turchi. La carta venne in seguito inserita nel Isole che son da Venetia nella Dalmatia et per tutto l’arcipelago fino a Costantinopoli, edito da Simone Pinargenti a Venezia nel 1573. L’opera fu realizzata in stretta concorrenza con l’analoga raccolta del Camocio Isole Famose, e raccoglie carte incise da Nicolò Nelli, Natale Bonifacio e dal Pinargenti stesso. I pochi esemplari noti della raccolta sono spesso diversi tra loro, e contengono un numero variabile di carte. Bellissima prova, impressa su carta vergata coeva con filigrana “sirena in uno scudo con stella”, in perfetto stato di conservazione.

When Julia Child entered the world cooking stage with her first book published in 1961 she brought with her a sense of joie de vivre the kitchen had rarely seen before. Reading Child's enjoyable dissertations on making an omelette or sole meuniere opened up unexplored and often intimidating terrain to the American cook. One can only imagine the back and forth between purist Simone Beck and the affable Child as she literally and physically translated for the first time the essentials of French cooking for an American audience. Groundbreaking taste making captivating! One can never resist superlatives when speaking of Julia Child. Briefly inscribed and signed on the half-title page by both Julia Child and Paul Child.

Illustrations by Sidonie Coryn based on photographs by Paul Child. Technical drawings by Paul Child.

Working from the principle that “mastering any art is a continuing process” here Julia Child and Simone Beck have gathered together a brilliant selection of new dishes that will bring you to a yet higher level of culinary mastery. They have searched out more of the classic dishes and regional specialties of France and adapted them so that Americans working with American ingredients in American kitchens can achieve the incomparable flavors and aromas that bring up a rush of memories—of lunch at a country inn in Provence of an evening at a great Paris restaurant of the essential cooking of France. From French bread to salted goose from peasant ragoûts to royal Napoleons recipes are written with the same detail exactness and clarity that are the soul of Mastering the Art of French Cooking.

1948ref. 150076Paris: Editions Paul Morihien 1948. First edition of this travel narrative and cultural critique of the United States. Octavo written in French original publisher's pictorial wrappers. Presentation copy inscribed Simone de Beauvoir on the half-title page. In very good condition. Rare and desirable signed and inscribed. Simone de Beauvoir 1908–1986 was a French philosopher writer and feminist theorist whose work played a central role in twentieth-century existentialism and modern gender studies. Closely associated with Jean-Paul Sartre she developed a distinctive philosophical voice that combined existential ethics with social analysis most notably in 'The Second Sex' 1949 which examined the historical and cultural construction of womanhood. 'L’Amérique au jour le jour' recounts Simone de Beauvoir’s observations during her 1947 journey across the United States where she traveled for lectures and personal visits. Through a series of episodic reflections she describes American cities landscapes and social customs while critically examining issues such as racial segregation gender roles political attitudes and mass consumer culture.

2011ref. 96540Ashgate Pub Co. New. Hardcover. FREE UPGRADE to Courier/Priority Shipping Upon Request - IN STOCK AND IMMEDIATELY AVAILABLE FOR SHIPMENT - Flawless copy brand new pristine never opened -- 170 pp. ; 5 illus. -- with a bonus offer--; In planning debates culture is often treated as a fixed element either as a quasi-economic resource cultural capital or arts activities or as a category of behaviour in opposition to rationality. Yet a wealth of research and analysis is available that moves the spotlight from the question of what culture is towards understanding what we are doing when we talk about culture. This book brings that focus to planning research examining culture as a socio-historical concept and introducing a line of scholarship both established and recent to show what 'culture' does and why. Illustrated by a wide range of case studies from planning contexts it addresses the materialisation of abstract concepts magic ownership performance and embodiment citizenship bodies in politics and social categorisation house-society the public. In doing so it shows how a deeper understanding of culture can offer new insights into the challenges that planners and planning theorists face. While "Planning and Culture" is aimed primarily at planning theorists professionals and students it has equal relevance for students of human geography or sociology and is accessible to a wider readership. In effect it opens up the field of planning to a new realm of research enabling readers to think beyond the bounds of what they know about planning and to think about what they may or may not know about culture. . 2011. 0754677222 .
