The Journal of Indentureship and its Legacies, exists to create a unique and unprecedented academic space where the study of indentureship, as a distinct form of unfree labour, can be analysed in all its forms. The Journal is peer reviewed and published bi-annually. No such Journal currently exists anywhere in the world, in spite of the critical importance of indentureship to world history.

The castle at Cataio, about thirty-five miles from Venice, was built between 1570 and 1573. A series of frescoes, painted in 1573, covers the walls of six of its palatial halls. Programmed by Giuseppe Betussi, the forty frescoes depict momentous events in the history of the Obizzi family from 1004 to 1422. This book deals with this topic.

Lo spettro semantico del termine colore copre una vasta estensione, dalle accezioni propriamente materiche a quelle traslate. I saggi contenuti nel presente volume, che abbracciano sei secoli e tre distinti ambiti linguistico-letterari, ci offrono un ampio repertorio della varietà delle sue applicazioni nel campo del racconto, dal Medioevo all’Età Moderna. La maggior parte di essi indaga le modalità attraverso le quali i colori stessi, intesi in senso proprio, sono portatori di significato in ambito narrativo, sia sul piano materiale sia su quello simbolico: in ciò incrociando, evidentemente, l’orizzonte retorico. Alcuni contributi si concentrano invece specificamente su quest’ultimo aspetto della scrittura; nell’arte del racconto, infatti, il sapiente dosaggio dei colores rhetorici determina l’efficacia narrativa, tanto nella componente descrittiva quanto in quella dialogica.

About 450 million people live in the 18 States that set up the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts. Thirty years ago, they established an independent institution with a clearly defined objective. It was not to be a university-type institute for research, neither was it to be an operational weather forecast office. It would combine the scientific and technical resources of its Member States to use the most powerful computers in order to extend the range of weather forecasts beyond two or three days, the limit of useful forecasts at that time. It would be small; the work force was to be limited to about 150, including administrative and other support staff. In 2005, 30 years after the Convention was signed, the staff totalled about 160. The Centre attracted the best talent in its specific field of endeavour. Each year about ten scientists left, to be replaced by newcomers bringing younger minds and fresh ideas. It is not surprising that it quickly became a world leader in its field. It is widely recognised as having maintained its leading position. This book considers how the Centre was conceived in the confusing and difficult political period of the 1960s in Europe. It summarises the political, scientific, technical and financial discussions that led to the drafting of its Convention, and how it came to be built 60 km west of London, England.

An original approach to memory development that views memory as a continuous process of growth and loss over the human lifespan rather than as a series of separate periods. Until recently, the vast majority of memory research used only university students and other young adults as subjects. Although such research successfully introduced new methodologies and theoretical concepts, it created a bias in our understanding of the lifespan development of memory. This book signals a departure from young-adult-centered research. It views the lifespan development of memory as a continuous process of growth and loss, where each phase of development raises unique questions favoring distinct research methods and theoretical approaches. Drawing on a broad range of investigative strategies, the book lays the foundation for a comprehensive understanding of the lifespan development of human memory. Topics include the childhood and adulthood development of working memory, episodic and autobiographical memory, and prospective memory, as well as the breakdown of memory functions in Alzheimer's disease. Of particular interest is the rich diversity of approaches, methods, and theories. The book takes an interdisciplinary perspective, drawing on work from psychology, psychiatry, gerontology, and biochemistry.
