Siamo nel 1968. La piccola Anna Cannavò, di dieci anni, frequenta la quinta elementare a Siracusa. È una bambina poverissima. La famiglia vive ai margini della società. Eppure la piccola Anna non se ne accorge. È tutta protesa a carpire il mistero delle parole poetiche che sta imparando ad amare. Quando la maestra annuncia in classe che il ministero della Pubblica istruzione ha indetto un concorso e che il premio consiste nel trascorrere una intera settimana a Milano in compagnia di una famosa scrittrice, Anna Cannavò decide di partecipare. Il concorso consiste nello scrivere una lettera alla scrittrice raccontandole la propria giornata. La destinataria è Anna Maria Ortese. Con grande stupore di tutti la piccola Anna Cannavò viene selezionata e parte alla volta di Milano per trascorrere un’intera settimana con la «signora Anna». Arrivata a destinazione, però, la bambina avrà una grande sorpresa. Non c’è solo una signora Ortese, ma due: Anna e la sorella Maria. La piccola Anna si immette nel mondo delle due sorelle Ortese rompendo le solitudini di Anna Maria e accostandosi alla malattia degenerativa della sorella con tenerezza. Attraverso questa e altre storie intrecciate Simona Lo Iacono compie un altro viaggio dei suoi, di quelli che il pubblico in questi anni ha imparato ad amare: alla ricerca di un femminile che è talento e misura, forza e umiltà. Un romanzo che è soprattutto un ritratto nitido di una grandissima scrittrice, ma anche di una generazione e di un tempo perduto, malinconico e fiero. Con il suo stile ormai inconfondibile, denso e appassionato, Lo Iacono indaga la vita e i tormenti della Ortese. E al tempo stesso racconta una storia corale, una storia di donne che hanno con il culto della parola e con la dedizione al racconto un rapporto unico e commovente. «Al che mi è parso chiaro quello che la signorina Anna pensa di tutti i deboli e gli scalcagnati, di tutti i perduti e i rovinati, e cioè che sono pezzi di stelle cadute al rovescio, residui e frattaglie, come gli avanzi che il macellaio mette via per mia madre...»

In this magical novel a count from Milan stumbles upon a desolate community of lost noblemen on an uncharted island off the coast of Portugal. When he discovers, to his astonishment, that their ill-treated servant is in fact a maiden iguana, and then proceeds to fall in love with her, the reader is given a fantastic tale of tragic love and delusion that ranks among the most affecting in contemporary literature. "The reptilian servant is only the first in a series of fantastic touches that tansform the narrative into a satiric fable dense with the echoes of Shakespeare's 'Tempest' and Kafka's 'Metamorphosis.' . . . The Iguana is a superb performance.""€"New York Times Book Review

Silver, Trade, and War is about men and markets, national rivalries, diplomacy and conflict, and the advancement or stagnation of states. Chosen by Choice Magazine as an Outstanding Academic Title The 250 years covered by Silver, Trade, and War marked the era of commercial capitalism, that bridge between late medieval and modern times. Spain, peripheral to western Europe in 1500, produced American treasure in silver, which Spanish convoys bore from Portobelo and Veracruz on the Carribbean coast across the Atlantic to Spain in exchange for European goods shipped from Sevilla (later, Cadiz). Spanish colonialism, the authors suggest, was the cutting edge of the early global economy. America's silver permitted Spain to graft early capitalistic elements onto its late medieval structures, reinforcing its patrimonialism and dynasticism. However, the authors argue, silver gave Spain an illusion of wealth, security, and hegemony, while its system of "managed" transatlantic trade failed to monitor silver flows that were beyond the control of government officials. While Spain's intervention buttressed Hapsburg efforts at hegemony in Europe, it induced the formation of protonationalist state formations, notably in England and France. The treaty of Utrecht (1714) emphasized the lag between developing England and France, and stagnating Spain, and the persistence of Spain's late medieval structures. These were basic elements of what the authors term Spain's Hapsburg "legacy." Over the first half of the eighteenth century, Spain under the Bourbons tried to contain expansionist France and England in the Caribbean and to formulate and implement policies competitors seemed to apply successfully to their overseas possessions, namely, a colonial compact. Spain's policy planners (proyectistas) scanned abroad for models of modernization adaptable to Spain and its American colonies without risking institutional change. The second part of the book, "Toward a Spanish-Bourbon Paradigm," analyzes the projectors' works and their minimal impact in the context of the changing Atlantic scene until 1759. By then, despite its efforts, Spain could no longer compete successfully with England and France in the international economy. Throughout the book a colonial rather than metropolitan prism informs the authors' interpretation of the major themes examined.

The work of Giorgio Agamben, one of the world’s most important living philosophers, has been the object of much scrutiny. Yet, there is one dimension of his thought that remains unexamined by scholars: the presence of the ancient science of astrology in his writings. This book, the first of its kind, identifies the astrological elements and explains the implications of their usage by Agamben. In so doing, this study challenges us to imagine Agamben’s thought in a radically new light. A critical account of the presence of astrology and related themes in Agamben’s writings, ranging from the earlier works to the more recent publications, illustrates that the astrological signature constitutes a mode of philosophical archaeology that allows for an enhanced understanding of concepts that are central to his works, such as potentiality, the signature, bare life and biopolitics.

Surrogate motherhood is expanding all over the world. Debates rage over how public policy should consider the signing away of the parental rights of birth mothers in favor of a 'commissioning' couple or an individual. In this book, Daniela Danna describes the situation in English-speaking countries and worldwide, from California to Greece, presenting the legal alternatives regulating (or not) these peculiar exchanges. Should surrogacy remain a private agreement? Should it be treated as an enforceable contract? Are surrogate mothers workers? What happens inside the countries that have chosen different ways of handling this new and controversial matter? And, the most important question of all: How can we live in this era of new techno-medical possibilities and try to stay human? Can we resist commodification in the field of human relations concerning procreation? Contract Children discusses the different ways available to obtain a child through surrogate motherhood. It is fundamental reading for anyone wanting to be involved in the surrogacy process. It gives prospective surrogate mothers and infertile couples the background information necessary for their own informed decision. It is also an essential instrument for policy makers and activists in the field of women's rights, social justice, and children's rights. The question of how to publicly deal with surrogate motherhood touches upon our social vision of motherhood, ultimately marking the position of women in contemporary society.
