Newark, New jersey. It is fundamental in our purpose, and our express desire, that in the appointments to the staff and faculty, as well as in the admission of workers and students, no account shall be taken, directly or indirectly, of race, religion, or sex. We feel strongly that the spirit characteristic of America at its noblest, above all the pursuit of higher learning, cannot admit of any conditions as to personnel other than those designed to promote the objects for which this institution is established, and particularly with no regard whatever to accidents of race, creed, or sex.

  • Capitolo 13 Costume Stato E Società
    Costume, Stato e Società Costume, Stato e Società Nel V capitolo, intitolato “La Crisi del Trecento”, ho dedicato qualche pagina a descrivere le feste più celebrate dai fiorentini e, in termini sintetici, le condizioni di vita degli uomini del tempo; questo perché una narrazione storica non può del tutto prescindere dagli aspetti legati agli usi e ai costumi. Tuttavia questo tipo di informazioni, se inserite nel contesto, rallentano non poco il racconto; ecco perché ho predisposto questa sezione – intitolata Costume, Stato e Società - dove sono approfonditi alcuni temi e descritti aspetti apparentemente secondari che, uniti alle informazioni del racconto principale, dovrebbero contribuire a dare un quadro più completo della storia cittadina. L’Accademia dei Georgofili e la Società Dantesca Italiana Figura 192: L’Accademia dei Georgofili ed una singolare immagine di Dante Alighieri, in meditazione L’Accademia dei Georgofili nasce a Pitti il 4 giugno 1753, ebbe stanza nella Sala Leone X di Palazzo Vecchio e dal 1933 è alloggiata fra gli Uffizi e la Torre del Pulci dove, in una notte del maggio 1993, ha subito un gravissimo e incredibile attentato, per lo scoppio di una bomba che causò vittime e gravi danni. Due fattori favorirono la nascita e lo sviluppo dei Georgofili: il sostegno del Granduca Pietro Leopoldo I cultore degli studi scientifici e l’affermarsi in Italia delle teorie fisiocratiche che consideravano l’agricoltura base dell’economia e della ricchezza. Al suo tavolo si discussero, nel Settecento, i problemi del commercio del grano, del 286 Costume, Stato e Società libero scambio, della mezzadria, dell’allevamento, delle bonifiche e dell’istruzione agraria.

The very satisfactory progress of recent years in doctorate thesis completion was significant- ly advanced this year – 85 theses were suc- cessfully defended before international juries – a clear indication of the manner in which our young researchers meet the challenges as well as the opportunity of the Institute’s de- manding standards and multi-cultural context. This is by far the highest annual number of thesis defenses and represents more than twice the number defended five years ago. In the same period the number of students com- pleting their theses in under four years has also doubled.

    Firenze, Italy Opening up the prison The regeneration of the ancient prison complex of Le Murate in the historical centre of Florence is a successful experience of integrated planning, which has restored an area that has historically been cut off from the urban and social fabric of the Santa Croce neighbourhood. The project is based on the city council’s consistent support for a redevelopment which has brought social housing back into the city centre, while also providing new public spaces and pedestrian access routes, an innovative enterprise incubator, an art centre, studios and commercial space. Opening up the prison The regeneration of the ancient prison complex of Le Murate in the historical centre of Florence is a successful experience of integrated planning, which has restored an area that has historically been cut off from the urban and social fabric of the Santa Croce neighbourhood. The project is based on the city council’s consistent support for a redevelopment which has brought social housing back into the city centre, while also developing a multi-sectoral range of interventions including new public spaces and pedestrian access routes, an innovative enterprise incubator, an art centre and studios, as well as commercial space. The project has had a long gestation; since the 1990s, it has been the object of design competitions and of a study by Renzo Piano, who provided the first guidelines for the redevelopment. Work started in 1995 when a consistent national funding source was made available for social housing, and since then the Office for Social Housing (ERP) of the Municipality of Florence has managed the job.

  • Istituto Storico Toscano Della Resistenza E Dell'età Contemporanea (ISRT)
    ISTITUTO STORICO TOSCANO DELLA RESISTENZA E DELL’ETÀ CONTEMPORANEA BARILE, PAOLO 1939 - 2000, La grande maggioranza dei documenti copre l'arco cronologico 1960-2000. Inventario a cura di Marta Bonsanti (2019) Biografia. Nasce a Bologna il 10 settembre 1917. Nel 1939 si laurea in giurisprudenza a Roma con il pro- fessor Salvatore Messina e diviene assistente ordinario per gli anni accademici successivi, che peraltro trascorre in servizio militare essendo stato chiamato alle armi nel 1939. Nel 1941 vince il primo posto del concorso in Magistratura ordinaria e prende servizio nel 1943 presso il Tribunale militare di Trieste e successivamente presso il Tribunale di Firenze e poi quello di Pistoia. Dopo aver aderito nel 1941 al movimento liberal-socialista, nel gruppo romano di Federico Comandini, nel 1943 entra nel Partito d'a- zione e nelle file di questo, in seguito al suo rientro a Firenze dopo l'8 settembre, partecipa attivamente alla Resistenza. Tra i dirigenti del Comitato militare del Comitato toscano di liberazione nazionale, nel novembre è catturato insieme ad Adone Zoli ed altri dalla polizia del famigerato Mario Carità; torturato a Villa Triste e portato in ospedale per una pugnalata alla testa, insieme agli altri prigionieri è reclamato dal comando tedesco e trasferito nel carcere militare della Fortezza da Basso. Nonostante le insistenti richieste di fucilazione avanzate dai fascisti come rappresaglia per l'attentato al tenente colonnello Gobbi, Barile e gli altri membri del Comitato militare sono rilasciati con l'obbligo di presentarsi settimanalmente. A Barile si dà alla macchia e riprende la sua attività nella Resistenza fiorentina a fianco degli azionisti.
