Three Coins in the Fountain - Logic Puzzle "Three coins in the fountain, each one seeking happy news. Thrown by three wishful thinkers, which one will the fountain choose?" Not quite the words of the song, but three young tourists - Brian, Paul, and Charlie who are all currently out of work - on a trip to Rome decide to stop at the famous Trevi Fountain, throw in a coin and make a wish. Each had only one coin which was either 10c, 20c or 50c but had the same value in relation to the granting of a wish. By coincidence each wished to play a star role, either Lucky Starr, Johnny Ladd or Justa Kidd in the up-coming movie "The Three Buddies" and each had their wish granted. From this information and the following clues, for each tourist, can you determine his normal occupation, the value of his coin and the part he wished to play in the movie? 1.

Top Attractions
TOP ROME ATTRACTIONS The Pantheon Constructed to honor all pagan gods, this best preserved temple of ancient Rome was rebuilt in the 2nd century AD by Emperor Hadrian, and to him much of the credit is due for the perfect dimensions: 141 feet high by 141 feet wide, with a vast dome that was the largest ever designed until the 20th century. The Vatican Though its population numbers only in the few hundreds, the Vatican—home base for the Catholic Church and the pope—makes up for them with the millions who visit each year. Embraced by the arms of the colonnades of St. Peter’s Square, they attend Papal Mass, marvel at St. Peter’s Basilica, and savor Michelangelo’s Sistine Ceiling. The Colosseum Legend has it that as long as the Colosseum stands, Rome will stand; and when Rome falls, so will the world. One of the seven wonders of the world, the mammoth amphitheater was begun by Emperor Vespasian and inaugurated by Titus in the year 80. For “the grandeur that was Rome,” this obstinate oval can’t be topped. Piazza Navona You couldn’t concoct a more Roman street scene: caffè and crowded tables at street level, coral- and rust-color houses above, most lined with wrought-iron balconies, street performers and artists and, at the center of this urban “living room,” Bernini’s spectacular Fountain of the Four Rivers and Borromini’s super-theatrical Sant’Agnese. Roman Forum This fabled labyrinth of ruins variously served as a political playground, a commerce mart, and a place where justice was dispensed during the days of the emperors (500 BC to 400 AD).

APRIL IN PARIS, SPRINGTIME IN ROME by Manny Gonzalez, Plantation Bay Resort & Spa Part One: April in Paris [intended to be laid out like a scrapbook, with the pictures askew and the captions written in hand-printed letters, arrows leading into the pictures, and the like] It sounded like a good idea at the time – take three beautiful girls to the Continent. Experience April in Paris. Savor Springtime in Rome. The idea was born during a 2011 visit to Plantation Bay by Grace Glory Go (of the Philippine Star) and her French diplomat friend Thierry Mixa, who waxed eloquent on the glories of Paris in spring. Paris 0 [city and number in red print denotes a picture] Grace, Thierry, and Hannah – one of the three girls. Okay, so Hannah isn’t exactly beautiful. But she has a pleasant personality. Mabait pa. Then many things started going wrong. But, not to bore you with the details, finally, six months later and with the mishaps behind us, there we were, on a Segway tour of Paris. Paris 1 Geli Reyes, Manny Gonzalez, Hannah Patalinjug, and Zuri Almendras. The first thing the girls wanted to see was this prominent erection. However, in Paris’s famous Pere Lachaise cemetery, the girls (having gone shopping instead) missed this other, equally fascinating erection: Paris 2 Victor Noir was a 19th-century journalist who was shot dead one night. But, as the groin area of his death effigy shows, he was thinking happy thoughts when he bought a bullet. Today, women come from all over the world, around the clock, to leave him flowers, and kiss his [ahem].

To view a copy of this license, visit http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/ Our trip to Italy starts in the far northern Alpine regions of the country near Bolzano. The beautiful scenery includes green terraced fields. Can you see the ancient castle on the hilltop? As we head south on the highway, leaving the Alps behind, we come to the city of Verona on the Adige River. This medieval town is best known as the setting for Shakespeare’s play “Romeo and Juliet”. And here is Juliet’s balcony, as legend would have it. Perhaps this young girl is calling “Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou, Romeo?... What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet…”. Verona is also well known for its 1st century Roman Arena. Let’s stop at this outdoor café for a cool drink and to enjoy the view. …or would you prefer gelato? Tonight we have returned to the Verona Arena for a sumptuous production of the opera “Rigoletto” by Giuseppe Verdi. To get to Venice, we have to drive east towards the Adriatic Sea. Venice is made up of over 100 small islands. There are no roads for cars in Venice. You have to get everywhere either on foot or in a boat.

ARTICLES / SAGGI FREUD AND GIDGET GO TO ROME BUT UNCLE SAM DOESN’T: THE ROMAN FEVER FILMS 1953-1963 Mark Nicholls Sommario Questo articolo si propone di prendere in esame alcuni film di Hollywood, da Roman Holiday a Gidget goes to Rome , che furono realizzati a Roma negli anni della guerra fredda. Tematicamente incentrata sulla generale ambivalenza dei concetti di casa, amore e morte, questa serie della ‘febbre romana’ conserva tutti i tratti caratteristici della nevrosi romana di cui Siegmund Freud aveva scritto circa mezzo secolo prima. Come nell’esperienza di Freud, i film della ‘frebbre romana’ narrano dell‘incontro con la capitale italiana caratterizzato dal tentativo di resistere alla sua seduzione e dall’inevitable capitolazione finale. Come tante cartoline spedite a casa, questi film offrono anche un punto di vista provocatorio sulle frustrazioni e ansie politiche che contraddistinsero la presenza degli americani in Italia negli anni Cinquanta. Dovendo confrontarsi con la bizantina complessità dello scenario della politica italiana e il ruolo centrale del partito comunista all’interno di esso, l’amministrazione USA basò il suo intervento sull’ignoranza e sulla diretta contrapposizione. Fu lasciato a Gidget e Audrey Hepburn il compito di esplorare e districare le articolate supposizioni della politica americana in quest’aria strategica dell’Europa durante la guerra fredda. 1 “Hollywood on the Tiber” is now little more than a marketing concept intended to lure tourists to emulate the dolce vita days of Rome in the late 50s and early 60s. Undoubtedly, with epic productions such as Martin Scorsese’s Gangs of New York (2002) being shot there, Cinecittà studios still play their part in Hollywood’s thirst for offshore production.

A Fountain for Memory
1 A FOUNTAIN FOR MEMORY: The Trevi Flow of Power and Transcultural Performance Pam Krist, PhD Thesis School of Modern Languages, Literature and Culture Royal Holloway, University of London 2015 2 3 Abstract In memory studies much research on monuments focuses on those with traumatic or controversial associations whilst others can be overlooked. The thesis explores this gap and seeks to supplement the critical understanding of a populist monument as a nexus for cultural remembering. The Trevi Fountain in Rome is chosen because it is a conduit for the flow of multivalent imagery, ideological manipulation, and ever-evolving performances of memory, from design plans to mediated representations. The thesis begins by locating the historical pre-material and material presences of the Fountain, establishing this contextual consideration as contributory to memory studies. It then surveys the field of theory to build a necessarily flexible conceptual framework for researching the Fountain which, given the movement and sound of water and the coin-throwing ritual, differs from a static monument in its memorial connotations. The interpretations of the illusory Trevi design and its myths are explored before employing a cross-disciplinary approach to the intertextuality of its presences and its performative potential in art, literature, film, music, advertising and on the Internet. The thesis concludes with questions about the digital Trevi and dilution of memory. Gathering strength throughout is the premise of the Fountain as a transcultural vehicle for dominant ideologies ‒ from the papal to commercial, the Grand Tour to cyber tourism ‒ seeking to control remembering and forgetting. Sometimes these are undermined by the social and inventive practices of memory.

“More and Not Like Us?”: the Image of Europe Via Space, Place, & Gender in Mid- Twentieth Century American Cinema
“More and Not Like Us?”: The Image of Europe via Space, Place, & Gender in Mid- Twentieth Century American Cinema Master Thesis European Studies Identity and Integration Graduate School for Humanities Supervisor: dhr. dr. A.J. (Alex) Drace-Francis Second Reader: dhr. Prof. dr. J.T. (Joep) Leerssen The 30th of June 2020 Samantha Staggs 11591315 Word count: 17,245 Abstract Cinema has been a central medium of entertainment in American society. It is a medium in which beliefs and notions of cultures are expressed and visualized, whilst at the same time re- shaping or influencing the cultural attitudes it sets out to represent. This research analyzes five Hollywood films from the 1940s and 1950s to realize what image of Europe in terms of space, place, and gender is presented to viewers. Through the Hollywood lens of the mid-twentieth century, it becomes evident America’s imagination of Europe is grounded in a decidedly fluid process that shifts between seeing Europe as an “other” and as a mirror for America’s own self- image. Acknowledgements I would like to firstly acknowledge and sincerely thank Dr Alex Drace-Francis who has continuously provided supportive and insightful comments, both in his role as my supervisor during this research thesis and as lecturer in my master’s program electives. I also thank Dr Joep Leerssen for the great lectures and material supplied in the Cultures of Nationalism in Contemporary Europe elective and for his role as my secondary marker. Lastly, I would like to convey gratitude to my fellow peers within the European Studies master’s track Identity and Integration.
