Story1
Ci sono i comunisti e gli scomunisti, i barbari padani e i democristiani, i socialisti craxiani e non craxiani, i postfascisti e i berluscones: settant'anni di costume, di scissioni, di precisazioni, di essere uguali ma diversi hanno finito per affollare il nostro paese di tribù e sottotribù politiche, ognuna con i suoi tic, le sue parole d'ordine e di contrordine, i suoi vizi privati e le sue pubbliche virtù. Filippo Ceccarelli, "curioso di professione", si inabissa nelle infinite pieghe di questa storia cominciata con il dopoguerra e forse ora finita per sempre.

Mary Beard ci offre una nuova visione della storia di Roma, caratterizzata da incredibili miti fondativi e grandi istituzioni politiche e sociali, da straordinarie conquiste militari e stupefacenti opere architettoniche, nonché, naturalmente, dalle gesta di personalità celebri: Cicerone, Catilina, Giulio Cesare, Ottaviano e Marco Antonio. Le innumerevoli testimonianze ci rendono partecipi dell'estrema vitalità e grandezza di un mondo globalizzato e in perpetuo movimento, dove uomini e merci, libri e idee, mode e religioni circolavano liberamente.

Story1
Beginning with the often violent circumstances of Dante's life, the book examines his successive works as testimony to the course of his passionate humanity: his lyric poetry through to the Vita nova as the great work of his first period; the Convivio, De vulgari eloquentia and the poems of his early years in exile; and the Monarchia and the Commedia as the product of his maturity.

Caught between Camorra gunrunners selling to ISIS and Nigerian drug gangs along Italy's picturesque coast, each year thousands of refugees and migrants are lured into their underworld, forced to become sex slaves, drug mules, or weapon smugglers. In this powerful expose, investigative journalist Barbie Latza Nadeau follows the weapons trail, meets the trafficked women trapped by black magic, the brave nuns who try to save them, and the Italian police who turn a blind eye as the most urgent issues facing Europe play out in broad daylight.

Al principio del ventesimo secolo, a seguito di una crisi di colera che devastò Napoli, la giornalista Matilde Serao volle raccontare al mondo il "ventre" della città, quei quartieri popolari abitati da schiere di poveri costretti all'antica e ingegnosa arte del tirare a campare. Città bella ma dimenticata dallo stato sabaudo, la Napoli di inizio '900 era preda di degrado urbano, crimine organizzato e malattie cui il popolo abbandonato faceva fronte attraverso uno sconfinato repertorio di credenze e superstizioni.

The word “mafia,” Sicilian in origin, is synonymous with Italy, but Italy is home to several different mafias, with three being particularly notorious. While the Cosa Nostra of western Sicily is the most infamous, other powerful groups include the ferocious ‘Ndrangheta of Calabria and the Camorra, the third-largest mafia, which is active in Naples and the Campania region.

Story21
When we think of ancient Rome, the first notion that comes to mind is the one of the empire, followed by the image of a mighty emperor, his legions, colossal buildings, and the Gladiators (or the rhetoric and poetry, depending on your preferences). Some may recall the image of a “unified” Europe under a single sovereign - the emperor of Rome. However, Rome did not become remarkable at this considerably late phase. In fact, many historians see the history of Rome under the Emperors as a long, gradual decline. It was during the republic that Rome gained an empire.

Between 1950 and 1970, the Vatican and the American Catholic Church sent nearly four thousand Italian children to the United States for adoption into “good” Catholic homes. With the religious stigma of unwed motherhood turning families against daughters and a Church and State wanting “illegitimate” children sent abroad, mothers were lied to, given forms to sign that they didn’t understand, or even told their baby had died, all to further supply this international adoption pipeline.

Pendant des siècles, la République de Venise a défié les attentes. Bâtie sur des pilotis de bois enfoncés dans la vase, protégée par les marées et le commerce, elle s'est façonnée en une puissance souveraine qui a survécu aux royaumes, aux dynasties et aux empires. Venise est devenue la Reine de l'Adriatique—une république de marchands et de magistrats, d'amiraux et d'ambassadeurs. Ses galères naviguaient vers Constantinople et Alexandrie ; ses étendards flottaient sur la Crète et Chypre ; ses émissaires négociaient avec les papes, les sultans et les empereurs.

Nel 1992 l'Italia si fermò. Si fermò davanti alle inchieste dei magistrati che si aprivano una dietro l'altra senza sosta. Il paese intero si fermò sconvolto dal rumore delle manette, dal fruscio delle mazzette, dalle voci dei giornalisti che si affannavano e si accavallavano per raccontare le gesta di politici, di imprenditori e di giudici. Stava finendo la Milano da bere mentre echeggiavano le bombe in Sicilia; folle festanti osservavano politici incamminarsi verso la galera, osannando chi ce li mandava.

"Arrestato alle ore 22,30 dell'8 novembre 1926, davanti all'ingresso di via Morgagni 25, dimora dei Passarge, l'onorevole Gramsci venne tradotto al carcere di Regina Coeli. In quella manciata di minuti fu decretata la fine, o quasi, dell'attività politica di un militante appassionato e coraggioso, anche se si aprì la strada all'opera di un gigante del pensiero, politico, ma non solo." Angelo d'Orsi racconta questa storia dall'infanzia in Sardegna agli studi a Torino, da Mosca a Vienna, da Roma al carcere di Turi, fino alla clinica romana dove spirerà il 27 aprile 1937.

One Sunday morning in 1993 a 16-year-old girl named Eliza Claps goes missing from a church in the centre of Potenza, Italy. Shortly before her disappearance, Elisa had met Danilo Restivo, a strange local boy with a fetish for cutting women's hair on the back of buses. Elisa's family are convinced that Resitvo is responsible for their daughter's disappearance, but he is protected by local bigwigs: by his Sicilian father, by a doctor with links to organised crime, by a priest who had vices of his own. Years go by, and Elisa's family can find only false leads.
