The appearance of David R. Slavitt’s translation of Orlando Furioso (“Mad Orlando”), one of the great literary achievements of the Italian Renaissance, is a publishing event. With this lively new verse translation, Slavitt introduces readers to Ariosto’s now neglected masterpiece—a poem whose impact on Western literature can scarcely be exaggerated. It was a major influence on Spenser’s Faerie Queene. William Shakespeare borrowed one of its plots. Voltaire called it the equal of the Iliad, the Odyssey, and Don Quixote combined. More recently, Italo Calvino drew inspiration from i

Il volume, giutno alla seconda edizione, espone, nella prima parte la teoria delle decisioni in condizioni di incertezza nelle sue linee generali, senza fare riferimento a contesti applicativi specifici. Nella seconda parte vengono presentati i concetti principali della teoria dell’inferenza statistica, inclusa una panoramica delle principali ’logiche’ dell’inferenza statistica. L’orientamento dell’autore è esplicitamente di tipo bayesiano, ma vengono analizzate con attenzione anche le principali impostazioni alternative. La terza ed ultima parte è dedica
