The aim of Thinking through Error: The Moving Target of Knowledge is to describe knowledge as it works in our everyday attitude and behavior. Often in life, when making decisions and choices, we do not need to test the truth of our beliefs, so there must be another way to guide ourselves. With this in mind, Antomarini presents ‘thinking through error’ instead of ‘excluding error’. That is, we act through a slow process of guess-work, followed by quick gestures. By using our own uncertainty and our exploratory abilities, we face unpredictable situations and at the same time we acknowledge the constant presence of error in our thinking. Every decision we make continuously determines and replaces an entire universe within which that decision is plausible. Our everyday knowledge is a balance between a feeling of the truth and its negation.

Aesthetics in Present Future: The Arts and the Technological Horizon is a collection of essays by scholars and a few artists who focus on the issue of how arts either change when conveyed by new media (such as the web, 3D printers, and videos) or are simply diffused by them. The contributors’ analyses describe how both virtual production and virtual communication change our attitudes toward what we call the arts. The scope of the topics ranges from photography to cinema and painting, from theater to avant-garde art and Net art, and from construction of robots to simulation of brain functions. The result is an astonishing range of new possibilities and risks for the arts, and new perspectives regarding our knowledge of the world.

The bilingual InVerse anthologies feature the works of well-known contemporary poets who already belong to the history of Italian poetry, in addition to younger and less known poets whom the editors believe deserve to be recognized. Every anthology collects the work of the poets who took part in the InVerse Poetry Festival, held at John Cabot University. At the root of the project is the desire to introduce English speakers to modern Italian poetry. This is the seventh edition of the anthology, which gives over time, a comprehensive and independent overview of the Italian poetic milieu.

The bilingual InVerse anthologies feature the works of well known contemporary poets who already belong to the history of Italian poetry, in addition to younger and lesser known poets whom the editors believe deserve to be recognized. Every anthology collects the work of the poets who take part in the InVerse Poetry Festival, held at John Cabot University every few years. At the root of the project is the desire to introduce English speakers to modern Italian poetry. For this reason, we take great pride in supporting the art of translation. This is the eighth edition of the anthology, which gives over time, a comprehensive and independent overview of the Italian poetic milieu.
