    This book reveals the intricacies of how human lives are interwoven with symbolic places created out of natural environments. Its author is on the forefront of our contemporary cultural psychologies movement—building new science of specifically human psychology (“Yokohama Manifesto”- Valsiner, Marsico, Chaudhary, Sato and Dazzani, 2016). In this new trans-disciplinary work artificial borders between various sciences—psychology, geography, sociology, anthropology, history, ad folklore—vanish. Instead we have a picture of unique texture of human beings living in their self-constructed life-worlds embedded in community, society, and—last but not least- in the geological textures of their given natural environment

    Part I includes texts about the current state of affairs in psychology, and of the emergence of the new area—cultural psychology—that turns out to be older than psychology itself. The sentiments expressed in these two papers seem to represent the doubts their author has about the future of psychology as a science

    Franco Margola e Casa Ricordi. Un rapporto tortuoso

    No full text
    Lo studio della corrispondenza di Franco Margola (1908-1992) compresa nella collezione digitale dell’Archivio Storico Ricordi di Milano costituisce l’oggetto di questo saggio. Le lettere, risalenti agli anni Quaranta e Cinquanta, consentono di mettere in luce i rapporti tra uno dei protagonisti della vita musicale italiana del Novecento e la storica casa editrice, a partire dai difficili anni del disastro postbellico. Esse testimoniano i vari tentativi del compositore di far pubblicare alcune sue opere; Ricordi, infatti, fu fra gli editori che diedero alle stampe i suoi lavori. Tra i titoli che costituiscono l’oggetto delle missive vi è il Concerto per pianoforte e orchestra in do diesis minore op. 30, dedicato ad Arturo Benedetti Michelangeli, che ne fu il primo interprete nel 1944 al Teatro Comunale di Firenze. Attraverso la riscoperta di documenti finora inediti, la ricerca fa luce su un aspetto non ancora indagato della biografia e della carriera di Margola

    The academic life is sometimes filled by a curious sequel of events and coincidences. I have never meet in person Marina Massimi, the author of this volume titled Psychological Knowledge and Practices in Brazilian Culture. Yet, our lives crossed already several times and all the times it was because her publications. Marina Massimi is, indeed, one of the most prominent scholar in the History of Psychology in South America and I had already a taste of her vaste knowledge about the historical roots of psychological and education sciences in the Brazilian context, in a volume I co-edited some years ago (Massimi 2015) to which Dr. Massimi contributed. I am very glad to host again her work within Latin America Voices Book Series that will serve as an international “sounding board” for her investigation

    For the first time, this article shows that manuscripts Florence, Biblioteca Riccardiana, 804 and Vatican City, Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, Ottob. Lat. 2251 are copies corrected by Poggio Bracciolini himself of his letter collections ad familiares. On these copies produced by two scribes who had already worked for Poggio, the author carefully revised his text and added marginal notes (in some cases even inserting the same notes in both manuscripts). In addition to the description of the manuscripts, the article offers a complete analysis of all of Bracciolini’s interventions (corrections, additions, and variants)
