In 1937, the regime launched one of its most ambitious projects - the E 42. The idea was to create a new monumental city embodying the new Imperial Rome, for the International Exhibition of 1942. Libera won the competition for the Reception and Congress Building. Launched amidst great pomp and circumstance in 1938, the work initially made rapid progress. When Italy entered war, the work pace became sluggish and was abandoned altogether in 1944.

The historical fact is that the pendulum in 17th-century England made some wide sweeps, from the Virgin Queen to the witch-loving James I, the beheaded Charles I, the Puritans, and the final counter-swing, the ultimate negation of Puritanism: the Restoration. Charles II was a libertine, rake, roue, and the model of sexual excess for his countrymen. The chronicler of London, Samuel Pepys, collected erotica; Henry Purcell, composer of some of England's loftiest anthems, wrote bawdy ballads. The program shows some of the excesses of this period, sometimes executed with great artistry, more often not. Regardless, the role of sex in Restoration England cannot be downplayed-politically, because it was the king who created and dominated the style, and artistically, because this was the way station between the lofty Metaphysical poets and the loftier Age of Reason.","stream","['King of England', 'II', 'Charles']","[]","['Reformation', 'Sexual freedom', 'Renaissance']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_eq943nj5/version/100002/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=6126" "fod100006125","","The Gods are laughing.

Under the alias Harry T. Buford, he fought at First Bull Run, was wounded at Shiloh, and served as a Confederate spy. But Buford harbored a secret-he was really Loreta Velazquez, a Cuban immigrant from New Orleans. By 1863, Velazquez was spying for the Union. She scandalized America when she revealed her story in her 1876 memoir, The Woman in Battle. Attacked not only for her criticism of war, but her sexuality and social rule-breaking, Velazquez was dismissed as a hoax for 150 years. But evidence confirms she existed, one of over 1,000 women soldiers who served in the Civil War. What made her so dangerous she was erased from history? Actors and historians bring Velazquez's story to life in this documentary, weaving drama and animation with historical and archival material to unravel the mystery of this secret soldier.

Board of Education Supreme Court decision to desegregate America's public schools completed the final leg of an heroic journey to end legal segregation. For 20 years, during wartime and the Depression, Marshall had traveled hundreds of thousands of miles through the Jim Crow South of the United States, fighting segregation case by case, establishing precedent after precedent, all leading up to one of the most important legal decisions in American history. Along the way, he escaped the gun of a Dallas sheriff, was pursued by the Ku Klux Klan on Long Island, hid in bushes from a violent mob in Detroit, and even survived his own lynching. In this impossible environment, Thurgood Marshall won more Supreme Court cases than any lawyer in American history, and set the stage for the civil rights movement of the 1960s. Marshall, who went on to become the first black Supreme Court justice in 1967, made the work of civil rights pioneers like the Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Parks possible, by laying the groundwork to end legal segregation and changing the American legal landscape.","stream","['Marshall, Thurgood', 'Supreme Court', 'United States']","[]","['African American judges', 'Civil rights lawyers']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_pgl7t8c5/version/100001/acv/171/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=60754" "fod100060752","","James McNeill Whistler and the Case for Beauty","[2014], c2014","56 min","[]","Caustic wit, man about town, James McNeill Whistler was the original art star.

Yet it was in this place of universal peace and contemplation that her remarkable courage was forged. In early 1943, Khan was recruited as a covert operative into Winston Churchill's Special Operations Executive (SOE). Churchill's orders: to ""Set Europe ablaze"". After the collapse and arrest of her entire network, Khan became the only surviving radio operator linking the British to the French Resistance in Paris, coordinating the airdrop of weapons, explosives, and agents and supporting the rescue of downed Allied fliers.

Alcoholism and co-dependency","[2006], c1993","24 min","[]","Alcoholism affects not only the person suffering from the disease but the alcoholic's family as well. This program takes an in-depth look at the effects of alcoholism on both the individual and the family, contrasting an urban and a rural home linked by the common problem of alcoholism. From the alcoholic to his or her spouse and their children, everyone is affected. As other family members seek to cope and prevent the destruction of the family, unhealthy behavioral patterns often emerge: spouses face frustration, shame, and a feeling of helplessness, and children try to hide the problem, creating stresses they can carry with them for the rest of their lives. The program provides a broad insight into alcoholism and how it affects those on its periphery.","stream","[]","[]","['Decision making', 'Alcohol abuse', 'Alcoholism', 'Substance abuse', 'Drug abuse', 'Codependency']","['Educational films']","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_x39ivjw4/version/100001/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=6056" "fod100060559","","Instructions and Advice","","14 min 55 sec","['Cutting Edge Communications Basic English Series']","In this tongue-in-cheek film, the Cutting Edge team shows us how to give and follow simple commands and sets of instructions in an office setting.","stream","[]","[]","['Communication skills', 'English language']","[]","https://cdnsecakmi.kaltura.com/p/1067292/sp/106729200/thumbnail/entry_id/0_1ee0u73c/version/100001/acv/171/width/320","https://www.remote.uwosh.edu/login?url=https://fod.infobase.com/PortalPlaylists.aspx?wID=102638&xtid=60559" "fod100060558","","What's Happening?","","15 min 18 sec","['Cutting Edge Communications Basic English Series']","In this program, the Cutting Edge Team, demonstrate to basic English speakers how to have conversations in the workplace about such things as what is happening at this moment?
