The
Public Domain: Enclosing the Commons of the Mind,
by James Boyle
Our
music, our culture, our science, and our economic
welfare all depend on a delicate balance between
those ideas that are controlled and those that
are free, between intellectual property and
the public domain. In The Public Domain: Enclosing
the Commons of the Mind (Yale University Press)
James Boyle introduces readers to the idea of
the public domain and describes how it is being
tragically eroded by our current copyright,
patent, and trademark laws. In a series of fascinating
case studies, Boyle explains why gene sequences,
basic business ideas and pairs of musical notes
are now owned, why jazz might be illegal if
it were invented today, why most of 20th century
culture is legally unavailable to us, and why
today's policies would probably have smothered
the World Wide Web at its inception. Appropriately
given its theme, the book will be sold commercially
but also made available online for free under
a Creative Commons license.(1.6MB PDF File)

Il
Treno by Elisabetta Benedetti.
Questo libro parla dell'uomo e dell'artista che, inizialmente
racchiusi nella stessa persona, si scindono per poi
partire ognuno alla ricerca dell'altro. Il treno è
il mezzo immaginario per esplorare l'interiorità
del protagonista. E' la celebrazione del sentimento
superiore a tutto, l'arte ed il talento che cambiano
il mondo. (www.elisabettabenedetti.com) |

Train
of Thought by Elisabetta Benedetti.
This is the short trip of an Artist within his own life-story,
looking for his dormant talent and for the strong emotions
that change human beings. It contains excerpts of old
poems that serve as windows, using which is possible
to look at the past and recover old feelings. During
this trip, leading the protagonist to explore himself,
his value as a human being and the value of his life
mission,he will remember the sense of emptiness that
surprises an artist after creating something; the limits
and merits of talent, seen as a backwash you can walk
on. He'll travel over again the brief encounters that
"carve a niche for themselves in the soul"
and stay there for ever;the traumatic mental crossing
from childhood to adulthood, the ancient sensation that
his scream is "nothing within the silence".
The three stops of "The Train"
tell about the protagonist's journey "within the
visible and not visible", celebrating the beauty
of life, of the individual, and the caducity of certainties.

can be re-located. He found none. On his return he
vows to search for solutions to the planet's most

French Natural Remedies & Recipes from Beautiful Tasmania,
by Christiane Guise.
The
remote upper Liffey Valley is a natural herb garden.
Beneath the great rock cliffs of Taytitikitheeker
(Drys Bluff) and along the Tellerpanger (Liffey River)
is a kaleidoscope of forests, ferneries, shrubberies,
mosses and fungi. The native heart berries and the
pepper brushes, the mountain cresses and the tiny
sweet ‘cherries’ of the ancient ecosystem, give way
in the farmlands to mint, hawthorn and briar, and
the organic herb farms brought with great care from
other continents. (www.bellepage.com)

France and its Poets Middle Ages to the 19th Century,
by Christiane Guise.
Poetry
is the language of the soul and the beauty of language
itself. As Dante once says, French
seems to have been created for poetry and it is probably
why so many people love the sound of it. Being a lover
of poetry, to them and to those who have no or very
rudimentary knowledge of French, I wrote this anthology
on France’s most prestigious poets. I did it with
no pretension and enjoyed every minute of this very
demanding but fascinating task. (www.bellepage.com)

Fire and Fur: The Last Sorcerer Dragony,
by Roger C. Schlobin.
A
vivid and descriptive novel in search of a feature-length,
animated film, Fire and Fur might more properly be
called "Smart Dragons, Dumb Choices.” It is set
in the pre-human Gobi desert and draws on Chinese
mythology. Its major characters are dragons and cats.
Of course, the cats do speak (often caustically) since
a few dragons are interesting enough (cats can still
speak but no one is interesting enough to talk to
anymore). Fire and Fur’s plot concerns the dragons'
terraforming the Gobi from sea to land (historically
accurate) in a desire for power and amid excessive
pride. In doing so, they release an ancient enemy
and their bane, the Azghun Demons, that had driven
them into the sea in the first place. The problem
is that the dragons have grown lazy and dumb, and
while they once had a cadre of sorcerers to call upon,
they now only have one. The last sorcerer dragon,
Ao Rue, is something of a misfit, and his efforts
for dragonkind are, perhaps, either very generous
or very foolish. He is aided in a major way in both
his own troubles and his challenges by the blunt and
clear-headed Mei-chou; she is the cats' first-of-the-first
and their shaman (it appears). Further, and also central
to "Talon and Claw" is a star-crossed, poignant
love story as Ao Rue seeks a fulfillment he cannot
have with a vain and young female dragon, Nü-kua.
