Every year twelve million Americans are arrested and photographed by the police. In many ways, mug shots are our history. Using a dazzling selection of mug shots that are arrestingly raw in their starkness and strangely eloquent in their simplicity, this absorbing, humorous, often bewildering collection sheds a whole new light on our rebellious century. From political icons Martin Luther King Jr.and Angela Davis, to A-list celebrities Hugh Grant and 50 Cent, from killer Ted Kaczynski to the actor who aided in Abraham Lincoln’s assassination, from prisoners of Auschwitz to a bearded Saddam Hussein, all of them declare a simple truth: The last 150 years told through police photography is truly an alternative history. Author Giacomo Papi’s brisk and insightful commentary enlightens us with intriguing backstories and little-known facts. A feast for the eyes and the mind, Booked presents an ingenious and utterly unique snapshot of our times.

This book offers the first comprehensive study of recent, popular Italian television. Building on work in American television studies, audience and reception theory, and masculinity studies, Sympathetic Perpetrators and their Audiences on Italian Television examines how and why viewers are positioned to engage emotionally with—and root for—Italian television antiheroes. Italy’s most popular exported series feature alluring and attractive criminal antiheroes, offer fictionalized accounts of historical events or figures, and highlight the routine violence of daily life in the mafia, the police force, and the political sphere. Renga argues that Italian broadcasters have made an international name for themselves by presenting dark and violent subjects in formats that are visually pleasurable and, for many across the globe, highly addictive. Taken as a whole, this book investigates what recent Italian perpetrator television can teach us about television audiences, and our viewing habits and preferences.

The intimate biography of the charismatic Tour de France winner Marco Pantani, now updated to include the 2014 and 2015 investigation into Pantani's death. National Sporting Club Book of the Year Shortlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Award 'An exhaustively detailed and beautiful book . . . a fitting, ambivalent tribute - to the man, and to the dark heart of the sport he loved' Independent On Valentine's day 2004, Marco Pantani was found dead in a cheap hotel. It defied belief: Pantani, having won the rare double of the Giro d'Italia and the Tour de France in 1998, was regarded as the only cyclist capable of challenging Lance Armstrong's dominance. Only later did it emerge that Pantani had been addicted to cocaine since 1999. Drawing on his personal encounters with Pantani, as well as exclusive access to his psychoanalysts, and interviews with his family and friends, Matt Rendell has produced the definitive account of an iconic sporting figure.

In 1970s Italy, after the decline of the Spaghetti Western, crime films became the most popular, profitable and controversial genre. In a country plagued with violence, political tensions and armed struggle, these films managed to capture the anxiety and anger of the times in their tales of tough cops, ruthless criminals and urban paranoia. Recent years have seen renewed critical interest in the genre, thanks in part to such illustrious fans as Quentin Tarantino. This book examines all of the 220+ crime films produced in Italy between 1968 and 1980, the period when the genre first appeared and grew to its peak. Entries include a complete cast and crew list, home video releases, a plot summary and the author's own analysis. Excerpts from a variety of sources are included: academic texts, contemporary reviews, and interviews with filmmakers, scriptwriters and actors. There are many onset stills and film posters.

The past two decades have witnessed increasing opposition to mafia influence and activities in Italy. Community organizations such as Libera, founded in 1995, and Addiopizzo, originating in 2004, exemplify how Italian society has tried to come together to promote antimafia activities. The societal opposition to mafia influence continues to grow and the Internet has become a frontline in the battle between the two groups. The Italian Antimafia, New Media, and the Culture of Legality is the first book to examine the online battles between the mafia and its growing cohort of opponents. While the mafia's supporters have used Internet technologies to expand its power, profits, and violence, antimafia citizens employ the same technologies to recreate Italian civil society. The contributors to this volume are experts in diverse fields and offer interdisciplinary studies of antimafia activism and legality in online journalism, Twitter, YouTube, digital storytelling, blogs, music, and photography. These examinations enable readers to understand the grassroots Italian cultural revolution, which makes individuals responsible for promoting justice, freedom, and dignity.

Il romanzo non autorizzato del nemico pubblico numero uno Negli anni Settanta Milano è sotto il fuoco incrociato del clan dei marsigliesi, della banda di Francis Turatello e del gruppo di Renato Vallanzasca. Rapine, estorsioni, sequestri sono all’ordine del giorno. Questo è ciò che si legge sui giornali. Ma non viene raccontato il lato oscuro degli intrecci criminali con la mafia siciliana, i poteri dello Stato, i servizi segreti, la nuova camorra, la grande massoneria, il terrorismo nero e rosso. In questo scenario di violenza, misteri e delitti si muove Renatino, l’affascinante e feroce capo della banda della Comasina. Dall’altro lato della barricata, il vicecommissario della Squadra Mobile di Milano, Moncada, tenterà di rimettere al loro posto le tessere del mosaico, dare un nome ai personaggi che hanno manovrato per un decennio le istituzioni e tenuto sotto scacco la nostra democrazia. Vallanzasca è la storia di un bambino curioso, brillante e amante degli animali, che si trasformerà nel nemico pubblico numero uno, a capo della banda più violenta degli anni Settanta. E, allo stesso tempo, è la storia del suo inquisitore, un fedele tutore dell’ordine che nonostante tutto si batte per la supremazia della Giustizia. Due destini esemplari, condannati a incrociarsi. Vito Bruschini giornalista professionista, dirige l’agenzia stampa per gli italiani nel mondo «Globalpress Italia». Con Giorgio Bocca ha scritto le dieci puntate del documentario televisivo Storia degli Italiani – Dall’Unità al Terrorismo mentre, per il teatro, è autore di Sotto un cielo di bombe, una rievocazione del primo bombardamento di Roma. Per la Newton Compton ha scritto il romanzo The Father. Il padrino dei padrini, che ha ottenuto un grande successo di critica e pubblico ed è stato tradotto in Spagna, Olanda, Francia, Serbia, Russia e Brasile. Su Renato Vallanzasca sono stati realizzati numerosi film, tra i quali il più recente vede Kim Rossi Stuart nei panni del protagonista, per la regia di Michele Placido.

Renato Vallanzasca, l'irriverente, il guascone, il tombeur de femmes, il re delle fughe è stato il protagonista indiscusso di quella esplosione di bande criminali che negli anni Settanta sconvolse una Milano già martoriata dal terrorismo. Oggi gli attori di quella stagione feroce sono morti, pentiti, o hanno scontato la loro pena. Tutti tranne l'ex boss della Comasina, che solo nel marzo del 2010 ha ottenuto di poter lavorare fuori dal carcere in un laboratorio di pelletteria. A sessant'anni, di cui trentanove trascorsi dietro le sbarre, il bel René appare ormai lontano dal personaggio spavaldo e sanguinario diventato una leggenda, eppure continua a far parlare di sé come se il tempo non fosse mai passato. La letteratura su di lui non accenna a esaurirsi, e dopo i libri è arrivato il cinema. Perché la sua fama è tanto tenace? Forse perché Vallanzasca, pur avendo riconosciuto pubblicamente le proprie colpe e il male fatto, pur dedicandosi da tempo a persuadere i giovani a rischio a non inseguire modelli distruttivi, non ha mai usato la parola pentimento. Lui, che ha sempre scelto l'esibizionismo, in proposito confessa: Anche se solo uno fra i tanti che mi ascolteranno dovesse avanzare il dubbio che il mio è opportunismo non lo sopporterei, il pentimento, e ancor più il perdono, hanno a che fare con la sfera intima.
