      A cursed palace? Ca' Dario is a historic residence overlooking the Grand Canal in Venice, unmistakable among all for the sloping shape (due to ancient collapse of the foundations), the elegant rose windows and polychrome marble. Yet, so much beauty, opulence and admiration have always been accompanied by a sinister reputation. A real 'curse' that would chase its owners (and not only), and which already affected the heirs of its creator (1479) and first owner, Giovanni Dario, and then continued spreading murders, suicides, bankruptcies, misfortunes of all kinds among those who have tried to 'own' the Palace. Until its last great owner: Raul Gardini, who committed suicide in 1993. In 500 years of history, this extraordinary palace has been given bloody and frightening epithets and nicknames: from "the curse of Ca' Dario", to "the cursed palace" and "the house that kills". Venetian people describe it as a "palason sensa el paron", a palace that cannot find a master. Or, perhaps, it simply does not want one. But what is true in all this? We will try to find out through historical documents, photographs, stories, rumors and legends. Ebook edition with color images. Gianluca Sposito (1973) is an Italian lawyer and a law historian. He teaches "Legal argumentation and trial rhetoric" at the University of Urbino. Mysteria Series A paperback and e-book series published by Intra. Global readability, Italian charm.

      What happened to the Kong from the 1976 film? That of King Kong is one of the most classic and disturbing stories. The first film was made in 1933, but in 1976 a famous remake was made. In those years, digital technology was still unknown, so producer De Laurentiis demanded that a real 12-meter mechanized giant be built for the film, created by three-time Academy Award winner for special effects Carlo Rambaldi. But the giant will not have the role and fortune that many believe it had. This is precisely the true story of that mechanized giant and a 'brother, ' of their incredible world travels, and of their mysterious disappearance. Gianluca Sposito (1973) is an Italian lawyer and scholar. He has been teaching "Legal Argumentation and Forensic Rhetoric" at the University of Urbino since 2004. He is one of Italy's leading experts on rhetoric and communication. Collana Mysteria Global readability, Italian charm
