There's a consensus among the Nuevo Leon business community that their state, and particularly its capital city of Monterrey, have something special. A mixture of work ethic, a tough climate that punishes sloth, proximity to the world's biggest market and some standout universities have combined to give local manufacturing companies enviable strength. And although the talk these days is all about transformation to a knowledge-based economy, the state's bedrock competence still lies in making things. The difference is that, going forward, Monterrey plans on making them even better. Adapted from the source document.

The transformation of a picture book into a film is a special case of film adaptation because this process involves inherently intermedial qualities. In media literacy terms, when viewers look at a picture book that has been made into a film, they familiarize themselves with the story's imagery and plot, which makes it easier for them to comprehend the techniques employed by the film to create meaning. The Oscar-winning short film The Lost Thing is exemplary of this, as it narrates the same story as the original picture book, dealing with social as well as existential issues. This comparative analysis focuses on the two di erent narrations of this story with regard to the literacy skills required to comprehend them.

This text provides insights into the process of valuation. Valuing is understood as a plural activity where 'pricing' things is just one way of signifying value. Socio-economic reality is constituted through different 'orders of worth' that are grounded in the way people 'praise' and 'prize' things.

The practice of estrangement retains an essential political function. It is possible to link this narrative formula to the investigative paths typical of Thing Theory: in this way the perspective guaranteed by the matter can shed light upon the ideological coordinates of capitalist logic, through an interpretation of the commodity in a dissident key according to the suggestion offered by Francesco Orlando in his Freudian theory. This article therefore aims to document the relationship between Šklovskij's intuition, Thing Theory and Orlando's proposal through a close reading of Solid Object, a short story by Virginia Woolf. ; La pratica dello straniamento conserva un'imprescindibile funzione politica. È possibile legare tale formula narrativa ai percorsi indagativi propri della Thing Theory: in tal modo la prospettiva garantita dalla materia può far luce sulle coordinate ideologiche proprie della logica capitalistica, attraverso una rilettura della merce in chiave dissidente secondo il suggerimento offerto da Francesco Orlando in merito alla sua teoria freudiana. Questo contributo mira perciò a documentare il connubio tra l'intuizione di Šklovskij, la Thing Theory e la proposta di Orlando attraverso una lettura ravvicinata di "Solid Object", racconto di Virginia Woolf.
