Alberto Guenzi, "Guilds, Markets and Work Regulations in Italy, 16th-19th Centuries"
English | ISBN: 1840142839 | | 528 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
The purpose of this volume is to provide a conspectus of current research on the history of guilds and corporations in Italy in the period from the Renaissance to the end of the 19th century. Particular aims are to examine the relationship between guilds, manufacturing, entrepreneurship, and economic development, and their impact on urban society and social welfare. The work derives from a major project set up in 1994; the results were discussed at a conference in Rome in September 1997, and formed the basis for a further presentation by Professor Carlo Poni at the 12th International Economic History Conference in Seville. The papers are grouped into three sections, dealing with the guild system in urban areas, case studies of individual guilds and conflicts, and their role in mutual aid and assistance. Specially translated for this volume, they trace for the English-speaking world a rich picture of the history of the Italian guild system in the modern era, and its movement from magnificence to decline.

Robert Barr Col. Smith, "Greatest Escapes of World War II"
English | ISBN: 1493025023 | 2016 | 264 pages | EPUB | 2 MB
Throughout WWII, thousands of Allied prisoners dreamed of outwitting their captors and returning to war against the Axis. Their ingenuity knew no bounds: they went over the barbed wire surrounding them and under it as well; they built tunnels of enormous length and complexity, often working with only their bare hands. They concealed themselves in their captors' vehicles and hitched rides to freedom. They became world-class forgers and tailors; they stole anything that might be useful to their escapes that wasn't actually red-hot or nailed down.

David Grubbs, "Good night the pleasure was ours"
English | ISBN: 1478015543 | 2022 | 168 pages | PDF | 4 MB
With Good night the pleasure was ours, David Grubbs melts down and recasts three decades of playing music on tour into a book-length poem, bringing to a close the trilogy that includes Now that the audience is assembled and The Voice in the Headphones. In Good night the pleasure was ours, the world outside the tour filters in with eccentric sparseness. From teenage punk bands to ensembles without fixed membership, and from solo performance to a group augmented by digital avatars, Grubbs presents touring as a series of daily dislocations that provides an education distinctly its own. These musicians' job is to play that evening's gig-whether to enthusiastic, hostile, or apathetic audiences-and then to do it again the next day. And yet, over the course of the book's multidecade arc, Grubbs depicts music making as an irreversible process-one reason for loving it so.
