Scoprire Dorothy Parker è un piacere: ha raccontato con folgorante ironia le debolezze umane e lo snobismo conformista. Scoprire o riscoprire Dorothy Parker è un grande piacere: ha raccontato con folgorante ironia e inimitabile acutezza le debolezze umane, le vanità, lo snobismo conformista, le fobie, la rabbia, i tentativi di non mostrare la disperazione e la disperazione stessa della borghesia americana tra le due guerre. Undici racconti brevi, compiuti, senza fili sospesi, introvabili ormai da anni - tra cui "La signora della lampada", impietoso sguardo sull'amicizia, il fulminante "Da New York a Detroit", rozza chiusura di una storia d'amore, e "Alla luce del giorno", sulla vacuità della fama - che, unitamente a quelli contenuti nella raccolta "Eccoci qui" (astoria 2013), danno pienamente idea della grandezza dell'autrice.

On July 25, 1943, news of Mussolini's resignation and subsequent arrest stunned Italians leaving them dumbfounded. After two decades, fascism had fallen without any advance warning. As festive events marked the incredible outcome and reminders of the past were destroyed, an uncontainable joy seemed to pervade Italians. But what did people actually celebrate? How did they understand the bygone dictatorship, which was soon to be reincarnated in the Italian Social Republic (RSI)? Drawing on more than one hundred diaries written by ordinary citizens (and some prominent figures as well) and inspired by Raymond Williams's concept of structures of feeling, the book examines Italians' perspectives on fascism at a very critical moment in their history. With the country mired in a devastating war further complicated by the September 8, 1943 armistice with the Allies and subsequent German occupation—followed by the eruption of an Italian-against-Italian conflict, the switching of alliances, and the declaration of war against Germany on October 13, 1943—the fast pace of history seemed to deflect Italians' attention from their immediate past. Amidst the daily experience of bombings, hunger, displacement, and death, coming to terms with twenty years of dictatorship turned out to be an arduous enterprise. Whether those who had lived under the fascist regime wished 'not to think of it and not to speak any more about it' as philosopher Benedetto Croce maintained, it is hard to ascertain. In truth, little is known of what Italians felt and thought about fascism after its precipitous demise. This book remedies the gap in historical scholarship by assessing how Italians confronted their present and negotiated their past during the two years from the fall of the regime to the definitive defeat of the RSI and the end of the world war in May 1945. By bringing to life the cultural imaginaries and practices of the past, the book raises ostensibly intractable questions on the epochal impact of what often appears as inconsequential: the typically unseen and seemingly banal power of everyday experiences.

Generations of tourists visiting Rome have ventured into the small section between the Tiber River and the Capitoline Hill whose narrow, dark streets lead to the charming Fountain of the Tortoises, the brooding mass of the Palazzo Cenci, and some of the best restaurants in the city. This was the site of the Ghetto, within whose walls the Jews of Rome were compelled to live from 1555 until 1870. Kenneth Stow, leading authority on Italian Jews, probes Jewish life in Rome in the early years of the Ghetto. Jews had been residents of Rome since before the days of Julius Caesar, but the 16th century brought great challenges to their identity and survival in the form of Ghettoization. Intended to expedite conversion and cultural dissolution, the Ghetto in fact had an opposite effect. The Jews of Rome developed a subculture, or microculture, that ensured continuity. In particular, they developed a remarkably effective legal network of rabbinic notaries, who drew public documents such as contracts, took testimony, and arranged for disputes to go to arbitration. The ability to settle disputes relating to marriage, divorce, inheritance, and other internal matters gave Jews the illusion that they, rather than the papal vicar, were running their own affairs. Stow applies his concept of “social theater” to illuminate the role-playing that Jews adopted as a means of survival within the dominant Christian environment. He also touches briefly on Jewish culture in post-Emancipation Rome, elsewhere in Europe, and in America, and points the way toward a comparison with the acculturational strategies of other minorities, especially African Americans.

The Jewish community of early modern Venice was perhaps the leading Jewish community of its time. It emerged as a response to the desire of the Venetian government to make credit readily available and, toward the end of the 16th century, it greatly expanded as Venice, faced with a serious decline in its international maritime trade, adopted a policy of attracting Iberian New Christian merchants. Yet Jews were still treated as the Other and subjected to restrictions and discriminatory measures, including confinement to a segregated enclosed quarter; the 'ghetto'. Despite this, the interplay between economically motivated raison d'état and traditional religious hostility resulted in a delicate balance which enabled the Jewish community of Venice to assume a real leadership role in the world of the Iberian Jewish Diaspora. Based extensively on previously unconsulted documents, these articles deal with central issues in the experience of the Jews of Venice, and so of Diaspora Jewish history in general: the Jewish quarter, maritime trade and urban moneylending, the Jewish distinguishing head-covering, relations with church and state, the forced baptism of Jewish minors, the converso problem, and anti-Judaism.

Ismet Prcić è un giovane bosniaco scappato dal suo paese d’origine, straziato dalla guerra.Essendosi lasciato alle spalle la famiglia, gli amici, la propria lingua, e l’amore, non sa bene cosa fare della sua nuova vita nella California meridionale, con i suoi cieli azzurri e i locali pieni di vita. Un giorno, quando sente lo scoppio lo scoppio del motore di una macchina, si getta a terra pensando: “Com’è che delle bombe scoppiate tanto tempo fa a Tuzla possono rimettersi insieme, ritornare nella bocca del mortaio che le ha sparate, essere sparate di nuovo e raggiungermi qui, al bar del Moorpark College?” Ismet vive insieme nel passato e nel presente e Schegge è la sua storia, una storia di guerra, di crescita personale e una saga sul destino spezzato di una famiglia. Con la sua energia esplosiva e il grande coraggio stilistico, Schegge segna il debutto di uno scrittore originale e incredibilmente dotato.

Giulio Andreotti — sette volte presidente del Consiglio — ha attraversato come nessun'altro settant'anni della storia d'Italia, sempre ai posti di comando, con arguta e graffiante intelligenza. In queste pagine, traccia una sorta di ironica autobiografia in pillole, raccogliendo, come spiega egli stesso, "osservazioni, rilievi, indirizzi che hanno via via costituito la mia risposta o la mia reazione dinanzi a fatti, indirizzi, persone con cui mi trovavo a confrontarmi". Frammenti che paiono quasi aforismi — divertenti, cattivi, illuminanti — e che interpretano il nostro Paese molto di più di mille parole.
