“I, STUPOR MUNDI” E-BOOK (KINDLE FORMAT) on “AMAZON ITALY” by LUCIANO MAGALDI SARDELLA I am pleased to present my first debut historical-biographical novel in the First Person Narrative of 285 pages about Frederick II of Swabia of the House of Hohenstaufen in electronic format available on Amazon Italy (and the rest of the world) in Italian and English in KINDLE EDITION and on KINDLE UNPUBLISHED at a launch price of 4.99 Euros, purchasable here: https://www.amazon.it/stores/LUCIANO-MAGALDI-SARDELLA/author/B0HNS82Z25?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=true TITLE: “I, STUPOR MUNDI” AUTHOR: Luciano Magaldi Sardella FORMAT: Kindle Edition, also on KINDLE UNLIMITED PRICE: 4.99 Euros SYNOPSIS: The short novel of the last night of Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, the Puer Apuliae who changed History forever. Castel Fiorentino (the agro of Torremaggiore), December 12, 1250: Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, Emperor of the Romans, King of Sicily and Jerusalem, is dying in his federiciana domus. Beside him is Manfredi, his beloved son, Berardo, the faithful who counts the beads of the rosary, and an Arab doctor who can do nothing more. In order not to die in silence, Frederick II dictates his memory. Not the official one of the chroniclers, but his own. From Jesi to Palermo, from conquered Jerusalem to Lyon where Innocent IV deposed him, from the wooden city called Vittoria that saw it burn in a night of February to the prison of his son Enzo in Bologna and the betrayal of Pier delle Vigne in Cremona. It is not the story of a miracle but the confession (inspired by Pirandello) of a man who wanted to transform the world into an architecture of laws, of falcons, and of tolerance, but who saw that entire architecture collapse. An accurate, intimate, and disillusioned historical-biographical novel, written as if it were the last “De arte venandi”: a work in the First Person Narrative on how Frederick II held power in his grasp, but, in the end, let it slip away.

EGO, STUPOR MUNDI EBOOK (KINDLE FORMAT) on AMAZON ITALY by LUCIANO MAGALDI SARDELLA Pleased to present my first debut historical-biographical novel in First-Person Narration of 285 pages on Frederick II of Swabia of the House of Hohenstaufen in electronic format available on Amazon Italy (and rest of the world) in Italian and English in KINDLE EDITION and on KINDLE UNPUBLISHED at the launch price of 4.99 Euro, purchasable here: https://www.amazon.it/.../LUCIANO.../author/B0HNS82Z25...https://www.amazon.it/stores/LUCIANO-MAGALDI-SARDELLA/author/B0HNS82Z25?ref=ap_rdr&shoppingPortalEnabled=true TITLE: EGO, STUPOR MUNDI AUTHOR: Luciano Magaldi Sardella FORMAT: Kindle Edition, also on KINDLE UNLIMITED PRICE: Euro 4.99 SYNOPSIS: The short novel of the last night of Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, the Puer Apuliae who changed History for ever. Castel Fiorentino (countryside of Torremaggiore), 12 December 1250: Frederick II of Hohenstaufen, Emperor of the Romans, King of Sicily and of Jerusalem, is dying in his Frederician domus. Beside him Manfred, the favourite son, Berardo, the faithful one who counts the beads of the rosary and an Arab physician who can do nothing else. So as not to die in silence, Frederick II dictates his memory. Not the official one of the chroniclers, but his own. From Jesi to Palermo, from conquered Jerusalem to Lyons where Innocent IV deposed him, from the wooden city called Vittoria that he saw burn on a February night to the prison of his son Enzo in Bologna and to the betrayal of Pier delle Vigne at Cremona. It is not the story of a miracle but the confession (of Pirandellian inspiration) of a man who wanted to transform the world into an architecture of laws, of falcons and of tolerance, but who saw that whole architecture collapse. An accurate, intimate and disenchanted historical-biographical novel, written as if it were the last De arte venandi: a work in First-Person Narration on how Frederick II held power in his fist but, in the end, it slipped from his hand.

Tomas Kapler rejected the claim that Europe cannot compete with Starlink because it cannot build rockets and satellites and does not have the money for it. He stated that SpaceX completed 165 Falcon 9 flights in 2025, while Amazon reserved 24 launches of the European Ariane 6, which has already launched 100 of its satellites. He also mentioned the German startup Isar Aerospace, the prototype of a reusable rocket in Sweden, and more than 900 million euros that the European Space Agency invested in a new generation of rockets. For comparison, he noted approximately 400 million dollars from NASA for the development of Falcon 9 and the Dragon capsule. Kapler cited examples of European space technologies, including the Galileo navigation system, which he said is used by over 4.5 billion devices, the Finnish company ICEYE and its radar satellites, and the share of Thales Alenia Space in the living space of the International Space Station. He also wrote that Airbus, Thales Aerospace, and Leonardo are merging their space divisions into a company with 25,000 employees, while the EU network IRIS², with 348 satellites, moves towards full deployment. He challenged the claim of a lack of European capital by estimating that European households hold 12 trillion euros in cash and accounts, and Europeans own American stocks and bonds worth 8 trillion dollars. According to him, 300 billion euros in savings flow out of Europe each year. As a sign of change, he mentioned the creation of a single market for savings and investments and Danish pension funds, which he said began to divest from American government bonds. In the field of research and technology, Kapler reminded that three out of the last four Nobel Prize laureates in Physics were born in Europe and stated that the number of applications from scientists working in the USA addressed to the European Research Council has more than doubled. He also mentioned Italian designer Federico Faggin, the London origins of DeepMind, and co-founders of OpenAI born in Poland and Slovakia, and the Dutch company ASML, whose machines are essential for producing the most advanced chips for artificial intelligence. As further examples of European contributions to American space programs, he cited the NASA spacecraft module, which he said was assembled in Bremen, and the launch of the James Webb Space Telescope by an Ariane 5 rocket. Kapler concluded that Europe has been repeatedly written off and reminded that Airbus has been delivering more aircraft than Boeing every year since 2019. According to him, Europe has gradually approached greater self-sufficiency in rockets, satellites, capital, and technologies. #Evropa #technologie #vesmír (translated)

The author wrote that flying cars had been promised, but Elon Musk was turning it into a spectacular staging. In his opinion, its effect lies in redefining boundaries again and again with Tesla, Neuralink, Falcon X, and Starship; in the future, data centers in space could also be added. At the same time, he asked what would be opposed to that. #Innovation #Technologie #Zukunft #US #DE (translated)

Wilson Pickett (Prattville (Alabama), 18 maart 1941 – Reston, 19 januari 2006) was een Amerikaans soulzanger. Hij begon zijn carrière als lid van de groep The Falcons. Zijn grootste hit had hij in de Verenigde Staten in 1965 met In the midnight hour. Daarna had hij succes met nummers als Mustang Sally en Fire and Water, zijn laatste hit (in de Verenigde Staten) uit 1972. Na 1972 bleven Amerikaanse hits uit en raakte Pickett aan lager wal. In Europa scoorde hij minder hits. Pickett trad verschillende keren op in Nederland, onder andere in 1995, als onderdeel van het North Sea Jazz Festival in Den Haag. https://hvdommelen.nl/p/PickettW.html
