Francesca Belloni intervista Quintus Miller, fondatore e socio dello studio di architettura basilese Miller&Maranta.
Il numero monografico della rivista - Le scuole di architettura nel teatro del mondo / Schools of architecture on the world stage - curato da Francesca Belloni ed Edoardo Colonna di Paliano, tratta il tema dell'insegnamento dell'architettura, individuando alcuni ambiti geografici di riferimento. In un momento in cui la figura dell’architetto è in continua trasformazione e allo stesso tempo in profonda crisi, tanto da far emergere da parte di alcuni l’interrogativo sulla sua stessa sopravvivenza, almeno nelle forme tradizionali fino a oggi
conosciute, la rivista “Architettura Civile” si propone di riflettere sull’insegnamento dell’architettura.
All'interno della sezione dedicata alla "Scena svizzera e tedesca / The Swiss and German scene" l'intervista a Quintus Miller pone l'accento sulla visione dell'architettura in ambito svizzero-tedesco, sulla tradizione dell'insegnamento di Aldo Rossi al Politecnico di Zurigo, sul rapporto tra memoria e progetto di architettura e sugli strumenti impiegati nell'insegnamento del progetto in uno degli atelier dell'Accademia di architettura di Mendrisio - Università della Svizzera italiana

The life and works of James Miller, 1704-1744, with particular reference to the satiric content of his poetry and plays.
PhDJames Miller was born the son of a Dorset rector in 1704. He
was himself ordained, but acquired no benefice until just before his
early death, probably because of a scathing portrayal of the Bishop
of London in one of his verse satires. At Oxford he wrote a vivacious
comedy of humours, set in the University. Its production in 1730
began his dramatic career, at a time when the number of London
theatres had just doubled, and new dramatic forms were being invented.
In 1731 his poem Harlequin-Horace, a witty inversion of
the Ars Poetica, attacked pantomime and opera, but also painted a
lively portrait of the entire theatrical world, in the tradition of
the Dunciad.
After collaborating in a translation of Moliere's works Miller
wrote two plays based on this author. Of all his dramatic works
these were the most successful with his contemporaries, and were
followed by a modernisation of Much Ado, and a ballad-opera adapted
from an afterpiece by Jean-Baptiste Rousseau, and rendered highly
topical. Miller made similar use of a recent French comedy showing
a Red Indian's reactions to civilisation, a satiric "fable" by Walsh
and Voltaire's Mahomet. A large quantity of original material was
incorporated into most of these, and this is generally satirical in
nature. The Indian is made to voice almost egalitarian sentiments.
An afterpiece, "The Camp Visitants", satirised military inaction
in the war, and was apparently banned. The manuscripts of the six
plays produced after the Licensing Act bear the examiner's deletions,
and illustrate the nature of the censorship at this time.
Miller's greatest strength is probably his flexible, vigorously
colloquial dialogue. His political satire is mostly contained in
the poetry, which attacks Walpole's administration with increasing
vehemence through the seventeen-thirties, until its fall. In 1740
two poems that used Pope in symbolic contrast to Walpole caused a
sensation. In both poetry and plays Miller is also a social satirist,
who lays unusually strong emphasis on false taste and the deterioration
of culture

HENRY JAMES’ VIEW ABOUT AMERICAN CULTURE AS REPRESENTED BY DAISY MILLER IN DAISY MILLER (GENETIC STRUCTURALISM APPROACH)
ABSTRACT
Daisy Miller is one of James’ novels that talks about cultural gap. There
are many cultural conflicts between American and European. The researcher had
formulated three problem statements as follows: (1) How are the cultural
differences in Daisy Miller? (2) How does the society in Daisy Miller view
Daisy Miller? (3) How does Henry James view American culture as
represented by Daisy Miller in Daisy Miller?
In order to answer the questions, the researcher used genetic structuralism
approach by Lucien Goldman to analyze Daisy Miller, because genetic
structuralism is used to find the world view of the author toward his novel. There
are three aspects to be correlated in genetic structuralism, i.e. the novel itself,
biography of the author, the social condition when the novel was created. The
researcher also had to find the previous novel and novel after Daisy Miller which
have the same theme and correlated them with Daisy Miller. By the combination
of the aspects above, the researcher could find Henry James’ view about
American culture as represented by Daisy Miller in Daisy Miller.
There were three findings in this research: First, the researcher found that
there are cultural differences between America and Europe. In Daisy Miller Henry
James presents the Americans who had settled in Europe lived in a luxurious life.
It can be seen from their life style. They stayed from one hotel to another and they
liked to hold parties. The Millers family brought a private tutor to teach Randolph,
Daisy’s brother. It was very expensive to bring a private tutor from America to
Europe; but James presents the society to show that it was a rich and high-class
society. Daisy Miller was a visitor in Europe. She brought the pure American
culture. The conflict appeared when she was considered to break the rules in
Europe such as walking in the night with a man.
Second, the researcher identified the view of society to Daisy Miller. The
characters in Daisy Miller were: (1) Frederick Winterbourne. He was a young
American who had lived and schooled in Geneva. He sometimes judged Daisy as
a good girl, but in other time he considered her as a bad girl. (2) Mrs. Costello.
She is American but with European air. She looked down the Millers family
because of their new money, unsophisticated conduct, and intimacy with their
courier. (3) Mrs. Walker. She exemplified the values of the formal American but
with European air similar to Mrs. Costello. (4) He was an Italian man. He
considered Daisy just as natural and innocent girl. (5) Mrs. Miller. She was
Daisy’s mother. She was the opposite of a higher class European mother, because
she allowed her daughter to do as she liked.
Third, the researcher found that Henry James presents Daisy Miller as the
representation of American culture. Daisy’s characteristics are: (1) Freedom. (2)
Naturalness. (3) Innocence. (4) Purity. Henry James takes the American culture a
little higher than European culture. He also considers that two different cultures
can live together in one community comfortably as long as the member of society
respects each other

XD: Experience Design Magazine (Issue One)
XD: Experience Design Magazine is an interdisciplinary publication that focuses on the concept and practice of ‘experience design’, as a holistic concept separate from the well known concept of ‘user experience’. \ud
\ud
The magazine aims to present a mixture of interrelated perspectives from industry and academic researchers with practicing designers and managers. The informal, journalistic style of the publication aims to simultaneously provide a platform for researchers and other writers to promote their work in an applied way for global impact, and for industry designers to present practical perspectives to inspire a global research audience. \ud
\ud
Each issue will feature a series of projects, interviews, visuals, reviews and creative inspiration – all of which help everyone understand why experience design is important, who does it and where, how experience design is done in practice and how experience design research can enhance practice.\ud
