La vicenda - mentre a Roma si sta riunendo il conclave per l'elezione del nuovo papa - è ambientata ad Almeda, un paese immaginario della Sicilia occidentale, in un tempo ambiguo, in un'atmosfera percorsa dal senso della fine e del male. Un umile impiegato di provincia, Taddeo Medina, attore dilettante di sacre rappresentazioni, improvvisamente durante la recita del Mortorio impazzisce, un suo amico, Temistocle Gasdia, che interpreta Giuda muore sulla scena. Tre loro amici, appassionati come i primi di funerali, sotto la guida di uno dei tre, Vargas, si prendono cura del folle. Partendo da una strana lettera trovata nel copione del Gasdia, in un cui si parla di un Protocollo per l'elezione del papa, mentre si occupa con gli amici del folle Taddeo che progressivamente si trasforma in poeta musico e infine in maestro e profeta (tra gli altri, Lao-tzu, Confucio, Krishna, Milarepa, Padmasambhava, San Francesco, Ahmed, Salomone, Y.), Vargas indaga.

Heritage Regimes and the State
Author: Bendix, Regina
Publisher: Universitätsverlag Göttingen
ISBN: 3863951220
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
What happens when UNESCO heritage conventions are ratified by a state? How do UNESCO’s global efforts interact with preexisting local, regional and state efforts to conserve or promote culture? What new institutions emerge to address the mandate? The contributors to this volume focus on the work of translation and interpretation that ensues once heritage conventions are ratified and implemented. With seventeen case studies from Europe, Africa, the Caribbean and China, the volume provides comparative evidence for the divergent heritage regimes generated in states that differ in history and political organization. The cases illustrate how UNESCO’s aspiration to honor and celebrate cultural diversity diversifies itself. The very effort to adopt a global heritage regime forces myriad adaptations to particular state and interstate modalities of building and managing heritage.

Lathyrus sativus and Nutrition
Author: Michele Barone
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030590917
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 67
Book Description
This book addresses the traditional use of a specific crop legume, grass pea (Lathyrus sativus), as a food product and ingredient for typical food products. Grass pea has very interesting nutritional qualities, including an abundance of proteins and peculiar organoleptic properties. As the crop also shows an enhanced resistance to adverse conditions, it is used in many geographical areas as the main ingredient of certain traditional foods. On the other hand, grass pea is questionable as a source of human and animal nutrition because it contains a neurotoxin – β-N-oxalyl-L-α,β-diaminopropionic acid – that is known for its neurological effects. The related disease is referred to as ‘neurolathyrism’ and occurs when grass pea-based foods are consumed in large quantities. The book is divided into five chapters, the first of which summarizes the chemical and biochemical properties of grass pea and provides nutritional evaluations. The second chapter provides an overview of foods containing Lathyrus sativus around the world, while the third describes Italian foods in detail. The fourth chapter focuses on the problem of neurolathyrism in connection with human nutrition and health. In closing, the fifth chapter sheds light on the historical and traditional food products sector from a food traceability and authenticity standpoint.
