  Pietro Belluschi Oral History Interview Conducted by Meredith L. Clausen for the Archives of American Art, Smithsonian ...   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
PIETRO BELLUSCHI: I was exactly in the same situation he so vividly described in the book; we were the same age, and of course he was a correspondent on the Italian front.
PIETRO BELLUSCHI: Artists made a big splash; it was of course fun to raise hell, but common people disliked them very much, because they were touching a sensitive subject: they were attacking the great Italian tradition and all the great architects and artists of the Renaissance.
PIETRO BELLUSCHI: I suppose I always did see what is now becoming a very common idea, that architecture is not one building but the totality of the environment created by all buildings, both their form and the space between them.

 Malaspina Great Books - Pietro and Ambrogio Lorenzetti (c. 1305-c. 1348)
Fondness for this sort of picture is in part the cause of our liking for the creations of the Dutch school; it cannot even be said that details of this kind may not be impressive as is seen in Veronese's Marriage at Cana.
But Pietro, like most of the artists of the Middle Ages, is too lacking in style and in art.
Pietro's aim is to move, Ambrogio's rather to instruct.

 Biography
Pietro and Ambrogio, born in Siena, belonged to the Sienese school dominated by the stylized Byzantine tradition developed by Duccio di Buoninsegna and Simone Martini.
Pietro (circa 1280-1348) was the more traditional of the two brothers, showing harmony, refinement, and detail but also dramatic emotion.
Ambrogio (1290-1348), more realistic, inventive, and influential than Pietro, is best known for the fresco cycles Good Government and Bad Government (1338-39, Palazzo Publico, Siena), remarkable for their depiction of character and of the Sienese scene.

 Domenico Pacitti Archive | Pacitti interviews Antonio Di Pietro for The Times
Unfortunately for him, a tycoon with a shady past is the likely next PM On the eve of Italy's general election, Antonio Di Pietro, senator, law professor and founder-leader of the Italy of Values party, is urging the electorate to change the face of Italian politics by voting out the old guard.
Di Pietro describes former president Oscar Luigi Scalfaro's definition of Clean Hands as a real revolution that was fortunately not wholly successful, as scandalous.
Di Pietro adds that legislation would also be needed to stop, for example, entrepreneurs who are politicians from passing laws in parliament on industry and commerce.

 Battle of San Pietro   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
Looking ill-at-ease, General Clark claims San Pietro was "key' to the region and that the "cost" in deaths "was not excessive." The complaint voiced against the film by the army brass was most simply that "this picture is pacifistic.
A 30-minute record of one of the tense and bloody battles for the Liri Valley in Italy in late 1943, it is a story told chiefly in terms of the experiences of one infantry regiment -- the 143rd of the 36th Division.
San Pietro's record of combat, its eye for terrain and for weather, its recognition of war as a science both wonderful and tragically inexact, are at least equal to any seen in films so far.
