Abstract
Sometimes the West is obsessed with the idea of progress, sometimes with the idea of decline, sometimes both notions drop off the radar screen entirely. Take it for what an anecdote may be worth, the baker that served my neighborhood in the small town in Italy where I grew up was called at the time, I remember vividly, Il Forno Moderno (the Modern Baker). Not surprisingly, that baker went out of business in the early Eighties, but after a while someone reopened the family business under a new name — L’Antico Forno (the Old Baker).
