 EducationGuardian.co.uk Special Reports Profile: Umberto Eco
Eco may not be in the same league as Italo Calvino, Alberto Moravia or Leonardo Sciascia, says Thomson, but he is Italy's "best known literary export", whose success paved the way for more translations of others' work.
Eco was then already renowned in Italy as a professor of semiotics (the view of culture as an empire of signs) and newspaper columnist, with an academic reputation abroad as the author of some 20 scholarly works.
Eco was travelling during last month's huge Rome demonstration, led by the filmmaker Nanni Moretti, against the prime minister, who is facing corruption charges in a Milan court and is accused of using parliament to get the law changed so that he will not stand trial.

 USATODAY.com - Domestic terrorism: New trouble at home
And the FBI said in June that eco-terrorism — acts of violence, sabotage or property damage motivated by concern for animals or the environment — was the nation's top domestic terrorism threat.
During the 1990s, anti-government groups sprang up all over the country, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center and the Anti-Defamation League, which was founded in 1913 to combat anti-Semitism and now monitors hate groups.
Shank, who is based in the Chicago area, says the concerns about domestic terrorism range from anti-abortion extremists who threaten to attack clinics and doctors to some violent biker gangs that may be involved in organized crime.

 Appendix - The Symbols of Anarchy
On the black flag was embroidered "Liberty or Death" and "The Land to the Peasant, The Factories to the Workers." In 1925, the Japanese anarchists formed the Black Youth League and, in 1945, when the anarchist federation reformed, their journal was named Kurohata (Black Flag).
This is unsurprising as anarchism is a form of socialism and came out of the general socialist and labour movements.
However, in spite of these uses of the red-and-black flag in the late 1870s, it seems to have fallen into disuse and it was only with the founding of the CNT over 30 years later in Spain that it was used again on a wide scale.
