Highlights include a church straddling the Romanesque and Gothic in Celano, and Massa d'Albe (the Roman city of Alba Fucens), where there is an amphitheater excavated from rock. The word arena comes from the Latin word harena, or sand. Sand was used on arena floors to catch the blood lost during gladiator games and the like.

The segment highlights two medieval churches near the ancient site of Alba Fucens. Both churches display ornamental facings made from pieces of colored marble that are intricately pieced together, what is known as Cosmatesque work.

Abruzzo churches built by order of Saint Francis of Assisi (1226–1330) or dedicated to him, are featured in this segment.

The segment features the Oratory of San Pellegrino and the Church of St. Mary of the Assumption in Bominaco. These, together with the Marian church in nearby Fossa, are considered the finest examples of Medieval art and architecture in the Abruzzo Region.

The tour of the Abruzzo Region concludes with sights near l'Aquila, the region's capital.

Welcome to breathtakingly beautiful Basilicata with its mountains and sea, light and silence.

Let's learn some numbers and colors in Italian.

Arianna just got her Marketing degree and is looking for a job. Let's see how she goes about it.

Arianna goes to her job interview. How did she do? Should she have answered any questions differently? Are there some important questions she neglected to ask? Do you think she will get the job?

Arianna is on tenterhooks waiting for the phone call that could change the course of her life. When she can't bear it any longer, the phone rings. No caller ID.

Arianna starts work at Phones and More. Her first task is to call a list of publications to find out about ad space. When she gives her email address, she uses the word chiocciola [snail] for the @ sign. Koreans also say "snail shell" when they see an @ sign, while the Dutch see a monkey's tail, and the Norwegians see a pig's tail.

Arianna has been made the head of a new marketing team. Too bad the woman reporting to her let things go sideways.

Marika's goof-up and an increase in printing costs make Arianna's job all the harder. Fortunately, she and Adriano may be able to work something out.

Arianna has a meeting with her boss, Luca, to talk about the increase in printing costs and Marika's role in the issue.

Serena tells us a little bit about Yabla and some of its special features, notably, the option for slow and loop listening, and captions that can be visible or hidden.

If you have ever wondered how to make the traditional Easter bread called la Colomba (the dove), in the shape of a dove, the head of a Turin pastry shop invites us into his laboratory-kitchen where Federica gives us detailed instructions as she demonstrates the first phase. Key is il lievito madre (sourdough starter).

Federica continues working on the dough, adding various ingredients, and making sure that the dough "meshes" without breaking apart. Finally she will shape the dough into the form of a dove.

Federica demonstrates the final stages of making the Colomba. Once ready, she cuts it open to show us what it looks like on the inside, with its particular consistency.

Irene introduces us to Venice, unique city, rare and famous throughout the world. Not only for its architectural beauty and historic monuments, but also for its art and cultural exhibitions. Venice is definitive a must-see city.
