    The paper aims to describe the contribution of four Harvard economists to the interpretation of the Great Depression and the policy decision making from 1933 to 1938. Lauchlin B. Currie, Jacob Viner, John H. Williams, Harry D. White, eminent scholars in the field of monetary and international economics, were deeply involved in policy decisions during the New Deal. In our synoptic analysis we will benefit from extensive scholarly work that has been provided in the last few years. We shall examine the extensive biographical connection between Currie, Viner, White and Williams with special regard to their common training at Harvard. Then we shall compare their interpretations of the causes of crisis and their proposals in fiscal, monetary and banking policy. Finally, we shall describe their advisory activity in the Roosevelt administration and try to assess their influence.Great Depression; Monetary Theory; Monetary Policy; Fiscal Policy, Keynesism

    The author reflects on Michele Taruffo’s extraordinarily important contribution to the renewal of both conventional procedural law scholarship and the theoretical background of law-court professionals. Taruffo’s contribution was achieved by means of introducing to mainstream culture in those circles the necessary knowledge of the underlying epistemic dimension, which was traditionally suppressed by the strictly legal one.El autor discurre acerca de la importantísima contribución de Michele Taruffo a la renovación del procesalismo convencional y del bagaje teórico de los profesionales de la jurisdicción, mediante la incorporación a la cultura dominante en tales medios del imprescindible conocimiento de la dimensión epistémica subyacente y tradicionalmente sofocada por la propiamente jurídica

    Il trionfo della morte di Palermo. Un'allegoria della modernità

    No full text
    Originariamente collocato nel cortile dell’Ospedale Grande e Nuovo in Palazzo Sclafani, il Trionfo della morte – ora custodito nella Galleria di Palazzo Abatellis, a Palermo – è una straordinaria enciclopedia iconografica medievale e moderna, di cui non conosciamo l’autore. Il libro di Michele Cometa è una guida all’interpretazione del tessuto narrativo di questo formidabile affresco. Le molteplici fonti pittoriche e letterarie che ne costituiscono la trama convergono nel tratteggiare – evocando la peste nera che imperversava in Europa da più di un secolo – una sorta di confutazione iconologica del retribuzionismo medievale. Le pene mondane, infatti, non sono qui più riconducibili al peccato, ma si stemperano in una melanconia tutta modernaOriginally located in the courtyard of the Great and New Hospital in Palazzo Sclafani, the Triumph of Death - now housed in the Gallery of Palazzo Abatellis, in Palermo - is an extraordinary medieval and modern iconographic encyclopedia, of which we do not know the author. Michele Cometa's book is a guide to interpreting the narrative fabric of this formidable fresco. The multiple pictorial and literary sources that make up the plot converge in outlining - evoking the black plague that raged in Europe for more than a century - a sort of iconological refutation of medieval retribution. In fact, worldly pains are no longer attributable to sin, but are dissolved in a wholly modern melancholy

    École thématiqueAnalisi iconografica di un affresco del XIV secolo già sulle pareti della chiesa di San Michele a Monza ed ora al Museo del Duomo. Il nucleo centrale del dipinto riguarda la santità auspicata di Teodolinda, la regina monzese che si fece docile strumento nelle mani di papa Gregorio Magno nell'opera di conversione al Cristianesimo del popolo Longobardo; santità promossa dal clero locale a capo del quale era, al tempo dell'affresco, Lombardo della Torre
