This song "Long Live Italy" by Francesco de Gregori symbolizes both the positive and negative aspects of Italy's history. It describes Italy as a prestigious nation but also one that was torn by fascism. It references Italy in the postwar economic boom period but also the time of political violence and terrorism in the 1960s. The heart of the song is about the Italians who loved their country and struggled for it, as it depicts Italy in despair but also set free from fascism, resisting injustice.

Giuseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882) was an Italian patriot and .docx
Giuseppe Garibaldi (1807-1882) was an Italian patriot and military leader who helped free the Italians from foreign rule and unify the country. He was a master of guerrilla warfare and raised volunteers beginning in 1848 to conduct daring military campaigns to overcome the rule of Imperial Austria.
In 1860, Garibaldi's thousand "red shirts" took Sicily in the name of Victor Emmanuel II of Italy. Thousands of volunteers then rushed to join Garibaldi's army.
In August, he crossed to the mainland to march on Naples, where he was greeted by jubilant crowds singing the national anthem, now known as "Garibaldi's Hymn." After turning over the city to Victor Emmanuel II, Garibaldi resumed a humble life on the island of Caprera.
The speech below is an eloquent appeal he made to his soldiers in 1860. A year later, as a result of his daring military leadership and the political leadership of fellow patriots, Giuseppe Mazzini and Camillo Cavour, the independent Kingdom of Italy was finally proclaimed.

We must now consider the period which is just drawing to a close as almost the last stage of our national resurrection, and prepare ourselves to finish worthily the marvelous design of the elect of twenty generations, the completion of which Providence has reserved for this fortunate age.
Yes, young men, Italy owes to you an undertaking which has merited the applause of the universe. You have conquered and you will conquer still, because you are prepared for the tactics that decide the fate of battles. You are not unworthy of the men who entered the ranks of a Macedonian phalanx, and who contended not in vain with the proud conquerors of Asia. To this wonderful page in our country's history another more glorious still will be added, and the slave shall show at last to his free brothers a sharpened sword forged from the links of his fetters.
To arms, then, all of you! all of you! And the oppressors and the mighty shall disappear like dust. You, too, women, cast away all the cowards from your embraces; they will give you only cowards for children, and you who are the daughters of the land of beauty must bear children who are noble and brave. Let timid doctrinaires depart from among us to carry their servility and their miserable fears elsewhere. This people is its own master. It wishes to be the brother of other peoples, but to look on the insolent with a proud glance, not to grovel before them imploring its own freedom. It will no longer follow in the trail of men whose hearts are foul. No! No! No!
Providence has presented Italy with Victor Emmanuel. Every Italian should rally round him. By the side of Victor Emmanuel every quarrel should be forgotten, all rancor depart. Once more I repeat my battle-cry: "To arms, all-all of you!" If March, 1861, does not find one million of Italians in arms, then alas for liberty, alas for the life of Italy. Ah, no, far be from me a thought which I loathe like poison. March of 1861, or if need be ...

A series of reforms in the late 20th century granted Italian universities more autonomy over management, finances, and curriculum to bring the higher education system in line with other European Union countries.
The Wasteland
The document discusses T.S. Eliot's modernist poem "The Waste Land". It provides background on the poem, describing it as widely regarded as one of the most important poems of the 20th century. It explores the poem's themes of disillusionment, despair, and hopelessness in post-World War 1 Europe. While the poem reflected the mood of its time, it also examines universal human dilemmas. It suggests "The Waste Land" is not just a product of its circumstances but reveals broader issues through allusions to the past and fragmentation of the present.

A CLIL lesson about Bauhaus
The Deutscher Werkbund was founded in 1907 in Germany and was composed of artists, architects, and designers who aimed to improve German industrial design and integrate art into everyday products and architecture. Key figures like Peter Behrens and Walter Gropius pioneered modern industrial design and architecture. In 1919, Gropius established the Bauhaus school which aimed to combine art, craft, and technology. Over the following decades, the Bauhaus had important influences on design but was ultimately closed by the Nazis in 1933, forcing many teachers to emigrate.
Transducers: a CLIL lesson
A transducer is a device that converts one form of energy to another. It takes a non-electrical physical input like temperature, sound, or light and converts it into an electrical output signal. Transducers are made of three parts: an input interface, a sensor, and an output interface. Thermocouples are a common type of transducer that converts temperature differences into electrical signals using the Seebeck effect between two dissimilar metals. Accelerometers are another common transducer that converts acceleration forces into electrical signals. Transducers have a wide variety of applications from antennas and strain gauges to microphones, speakers, and Geiger counters.
Robotics
The document discusses the parts and movements of robots. It notes that robots are not meant to resemble humans, but rather are designed to perform jobs that humans would otherwise do.

Viva L Italia
- 1. LONG LIVE ITALY a fragment of Italy sung by Francesco de Gregori http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRTwQoHihEs&hl=it
- 2. Why this song? Sometimes young people forget their past. Our world endured a lot of changes during history. But we must not forget what happened, although sometimes it’s painful. This is a song that symbolises the good and the bad things of Italy, an Italy that we’d like to make you understand. The song was written in 1979, at the end of a sad decade for Italy, a period of violent political fight and terrorism. There are many allegories and Italy is personified (Italy has a heart, can be murdered, can despair and fall in love).
- 3. Francesco de Gregori Francesco De Gregori (Rome, 4th April 1951) is an Italian singer. His musical style, similar to Bob Dylan’s and Leonard Cohen’s, recalls a rock but melodic sound. As regards the lyrics, they are intimate with a lot of metaphors.
- 4. Viva l’Italia Viva l'Italia, l'Italia liberata, l'Italia del valzer, l'Italia del caffè. L'Italia derubata e colpita al cuore, viva l'Italia, l'Italia che non muore. Viva l'Italia, presa a tradimento, l'Italia assassinata dai giornali e dal cemento, l'Italia con gli occhi asciutti nella notte scura, viva l'Italia, l'Italia che non ha paura. Viva l'Italia, l'Italia che è in mezzo al mare, l'Italia dimenticata e l'Italia da dimenticare, l'Italia metà giardino e metà galera, viva l'Italia, l'Italia tutta intera. Viva l'Italia, l'Italia che lavora, l'Italia che si dispera, l'Italia che si innamora, l'Italia metà dovere e metà fortuna, viva l'Italia, l'Italia sulla luna. Viva l'Italia, l'Italia del 12 dicembre, l'Italia con le bandiere, l'Italia nuda come sempre, l'Italia con gli occhi aperti nella notte triste, viva l'Italia, l'Italia che resiste.
- 5. Viva Italy Viva Italy, Italy set free, Italy of waltz, Italy of coffee. Italy robbed and shot at the heart, Viva Italy, Italy that doesn’t die. Viva Italy, Italy caught unaware, Italy murdered by newspapers and by cement, Italy with dry eyes in the dark night. Viva Italy, Italy that has no fear, Viva Italy, Italy in the middle of the sea, Italy forgotten and Italy to forget, Italy half garden and half prison. Viva Italy, Italy as a whole. Viva Italy, Italy that works Italy in despair, Italy that falls in love, Italy half duty and half luck Viva Italy, Italy on the moon. BViva Italy, Italy of the 12th December Italy with flags, Italy nacked as always Italy with open eyes in the sad night, Viva Italy, Italy that resists. Italy half garden and half prison, murdered by cement .
- 6. Italy of waltz Italy of coffee Italy that resists In the first stanza there’s the description of many aspects of Italy, some good and some bad. There is the image of a prestigious nation, rich of importance, which at the same time is torn by fascism but doesn’t die; it resists and continues to survive.
- 7. But we aren’t so naive to believe Italy has always been perfect. It has commited injustices, too. In the second stanza there’s the description of Italy in the postwar period and the economic boom. Then in the 60’s the period of terror, the Italy of slaughters and attempts. But in this time too, Italy shows courage “ even in its dark night”. In this song there is a contrast between Italy of honest and dishonest people. The heart of the song is the presence of Italians that have loved and struggled for their own country. Italy in despair Italy set free
- 8. The message of the song It is a dedication to that part of Italy which has preserved the historic memory of the Resistance and has resisted to the injustices of the Fascism; in the same way, today it resists to those who want to impose their own decisions on others with violence The song is “an act of love for this sincere country”, like the singer himself once said.
- 9. thanks for your attention
