Ann Pizzorusso è un'autrice appassionata, dedicata e davvero unica che combina la sua esperienza in geologia con la sua passione per la cultura e l'influenza storica.
Giuseppe De Lorenzo (Lagonegro, 1871 - Napoli, 1957) was a renowned geologist, having contributed significantly to the history of the formation of the Apennines, some of the most complicated geology in Italy. He was also a scholar of Leonardo da Vinci, having written a seminal book on Leonardo’s ideas on geology. His book, published in the mid-twentieth century, shed new light on Leonardo’s incredible writings on the geological disciplines of stratigraphy, sedimentology, paleontology, and structural geology. Additionally, De Lorenzo was able to influence not only scientists but the general public as he was knowledgeable in the fields of philosophy, literature, Far Eastern languages, and Buddhism. In September, 2023 I was honored and humbled to have won first prize in the National Giuseppe De Lorenzo book competition. Being a geologist and a Leonardo scholar it was a moment of great joy to follow in the footsteps of Leonardo da Vinci and Giuseppe De Lorenzo.
The saint and the artist who revolutionized religion, art and created the ecological movement
An archeological mystery which is still unsolved
I am going to use this space to post unusual items from time to time. As the Earth reveals its secrets (often in plane sight) it is marvelous to see them and appreciate them for what they are--miracles. It often takes an artist to see and portray the Earth's wonders, be it through painting, literature, architecture or poetry. I hope these little tidbits will open up the wonders awaiting you right outside your door no matter where you are in the world.
