I due mesi che i pittori Vincent van Gogh e Paul Gauguin vissero insieme nella Casa Gialla ad Arles, dal 23 ottobre al 23 dicembre 1888, restano tra i momenti più intensi e decisivi dell'intera storia dell'arte. Intensi e talvolta anche drammatici: Vincent si taglierà un orecchio alla vigilia del Natale, Paul fuggirà a Parigi... Sessanta giorni che questo romanzo ricostruisce attingendo alle fonti, dai giornali alle lettere tra i due artisti, e restituendo con sensibilità non solo la storia ma le atmosfere, le ispirazioni, i moti dell'anima.

Il podcast in 5 puntate di Marco Goldin, uno tra i maggiori studiosi dell’opera di Van Gogh, ripercorre le ultime settimane della vita dell’artista olandese. Dal momento in cui il pittore, il 15 maggio 1890, lascia la casa di cura per malattie mentali a Saint-Rémy, in Provenza, passa tre giorni a Parigi a casa del fratello Theo e arriva infine a Auvers-sur-Oise, un villaggio a nord di Parigi. È in questo luogo che Van Gogh dipingerà gli ultimi capolavori, fino alla sua morte. Naturalmente le lettere restano un elemento cardine per poter raccontare quel tempo conclusivo.

"Ho deciso di partire. Non posso più restare qui, mi scoppia il cuore. Ho detto ieri al dottor Peyron che domani salirò sul treno e andrò via per sempre." Come in un vero e proprio "diario ritrovato" Vincent van Gogh ci racconta, giorno per giorno, le ultime settimane della sua vita trascorse nel villaggio di Auvers-sur-Oise, a nord di Parigi. Un’autobiografia ideale e poetica, fatta anche di tanti ricordi, in cui Marco Goldin presta le sue parole al grande pittore olandese, con un passo narrativo coinvolgente e sempre fedele alle fonti storiche e all'epistolario.

The process by which nations escape poverty and achieve economic and social progress has been the subject of extensive examination for hundreds of years. The notion of development itself has evolved from an original preoccupation with incomes and economic growth to a much broader understanding of development. In this Very Short Introduction, Ian Goldin considers the contributions that education, health, gender, equity, and other dimensions of human well-being make to development.

In Thinking with Your Hands, esteemed cognitive psychologist Susan Goldin-Meadow argues that gesture is vital to how we think, learn, and communicate. She shows us, for instance, how the height of our gestures can reveal unconscious bias or how the shape of a student’s gestures can track their mastery of a new concept—even when they’re still giving wrong answers. She compels us to rethink everything from how we set child-development milestones to what’s admissible in a court of law to whether Zoom is an adequate substitute for in-person conversation.
