November 2015Das italienische Desaster
by Perry Anderson
Auch im sechsten Jahr der großen Krise ist Italien noch nicht wieder auf die Beine gekommen. Die Kennzahlen sind alarmierend: 44 Prozent der Italiener unter 25 Jahren haben keine Arbeit; nach 2012 und 2013 schrumpft die italienische Wirtschaft 2014 erneut. Die ökonomische fällt mit einer fundamentalen Krise der staatlichen Institutionen zusammen. Das Vertrauen in Politik und Parteien ist auf einem historischen Tiefstand, die Protestbewegung des Kabarettisten Beppe Grillo wurde bei den Parlamentswahlen zur zweitstärksten Partei; Matteo Renzi, von den Medien als Hoffnungsträger gefeiert, kungelt mit seinem skandalumwitterten Vorgänger Berlusconi und feiert den ehemaligen englischen Premierminister Tony Blair als Vorbild, obwohl dieser in seiner Heimat längst zur persona non grata geworden ist. In seinem vielbeachteten Essay präsentiert der Historiker Perry Anderson eine Chronologie des italienischen Desasters. Italien betrachtet er dabei nicht als »Anomalie innerhalb Europas, sondern als eine Art Konzentrat« der Probleme eines Kontinents, der zunehmend von Entdemokratisierung, Korruption und Wachstumsschwäche gekennzeichnet ist.

January 2019La città post-secolare
Il nuovo dibattito sulla secolarizzazione
by Paolo Costa
The secularization debate went through a big change during the last fifty years. Could this change be described as a paradigm shift? The volume, after an introduction that deeply analyses the “secularization” concept, picks up and discusses in eight chapters several exemplary figures in the recent debate (H. Blumenberg, D. Martin, C. Taylor, H. Joas, T. Asad, M. Gauchet, J. Habermas, G. Vattimo).Thus, the Author gives for the very first time, a systematic reconstruction of the changes and developments in this debate, ending in a real paradigm shift. The conclusion is however hesitant. It is unclear, Costa claims, whether this concept is still helpful to understand what is going on around us now and is in store for us in the near future. Winner of the Book Prize of the European Society for Catholic Theology (category: senior scholar)

BOTTECCHIA
THE FORCED OF THE ROAD
by PAOLO FACCHINETTI
The extraordinary story of Ottavio Bottecchia, a Venetian carter from San Martino di Colle Umberto, a war hero, a starving racer in his early thirties, an immediate champion, rich and celebrated, who died suddenly and mysteriously. A book that departs from the many biographies published on the Venetian cyclist that have mainly recounted the Bottecchia-man, investigating the causes of his tragic end, without putting the Bottecchia-athlete at the centre of the story. This biography has been reconstructed with wide-ranging research, introducing elements that have hitherto been ignored or neglected, such as the chronicles in Venetian dialect that Bottecchia provided in 1923 to the Guerin Sportivo or the detailed account of Bottecchia's trip to Buenos Aires in 1925, where he was invited by the Italians of the Club Atletico Huracan.

Niente per lei
by Laura Mancini
An extraordinary debut, the story of a woman who fights through life like a gladiator in post-WWII Rome. It’s 1943—families are crowded and hungry. Tullia and her brothers are raised as slaves by their violent, furiously unhappy mother. Every evening she counts the money they were able to raise from the streets, and if it’s not enough, she beats them. Tullia is forced to grow up pretty fast, to work with her head down. But the way she sees the world is brave, curious, full of life. Her desperate will to survive, to make something different out of the misery of her life, is so powerful it’s impossible not to remain in awe of her strength, her dignity, and her relentless resilience. She leaves behind her abusive mother, but her majestic figure, her beauty, her clear intelligence, torment her as she becomes a woman and a mother, without ever learning how to be a daughter. She is lonely, but she’s not alone: fascinating, dirty, loud, hopeful, eternal Rome is a mother and a friend to Tullia who grows in its warm yet unforgiving embrace. Laura Mancini’s writing is transparent and imaginative, atmospheric. Reading Niente per lei is like watching history go by outside a window: it’s impossible not to see in it a blurred reflection of ourselves.

Humanities & Social SciencesAugust 2019Taubenblut. Die Siedler
Eine sächsisch-polnische Familiengeschichte (1697–1939)
by Bosri, Maria
For centuries young pigeons were considered a delicacy. Broth boiled from them allowed sick people to recover and women in childbed to regain their strength. Not so in times of war. Then the farmers slaughtered all the pigeons in no time at all so that their flight would not show the plundering troops the way to the farms. Mostly in vain. Now the blood of women and girls also flowed, whom the soldiers jokingly called their pigeons before they committed suicide. And there have been many wars over the last centuries. Even on the territory of the then Polish noble republic.In 1698, after the election of Augustus the Strong as Polish king, five Saxon peasant families of Lutheran faith were resettled in Poland. They were to grow tartufflis (potatoes). A risky enterprise in the arch-catholic country. Lutherans were still considered heretics here. Near Petrikau (today Piotrków Trybunalski) they lived for almost 250 years in more or less good Polish and Jewish neighbourhood. And, depending on the ruler, in prosperity or in need. This was their home. Until Hitler came to power.

FREEDOM STORIES
freedom stories for boys and girls chasing big dreams
by GIOVANNI MOLASCHI
An engaging collection of biographies of present-day heroes: women and men who stand out for struggling for love and freedomFrom Rudol’f Nureev to Tiziano Ferro, from Christian Andersen to Keith Haring, a collection of 12 biographies of famous people who have distinguished themselves in thht against sexual and gender discriminatioe computer was invented by Alan Turing; Darla, a famous character from the cartoon Nemo, owes its name to the Pixar producer who invented it; the captain of the American national football team that won the women’s World Cup is Megan Rapinoe, who with her charisma has enchanted men and women all over the world. If recently the editorial proposal on the LGBTQ theme has focused on “coming out”, this book - through compelling stories of courage - conveys a message completely indipendent from the sexual orientation of the reader, and focuses on the exemplarity of the actions that make these personalities prominent and true examples for future generations.

Ossigeno
by Sacha Naspini
Paul Auster meets Stephen King in this poetic yet disturbing investigation into the darkest corners of human nature. After the coral, ambitious Le case del malcontento, Sasha Naspini comes back with a tightly plotted narrative that keeps you at the edge of your seat from page one to the very end, while drawing with sharp sensibility broken characters who fight against all odds to put their pieces back together in unexpected new shapes. Laura disappears on the 12th of August 1999, at eight years old. She is found 14 years later in a bunker. She’s 22 now. Luca is having dinner with his father, just another evening, always the same for the last thirty years. Someone knocks at the door: it’s the police. What happens if one day you find out the person who raised you is a monster? Ossigeno is the story of those who stay after everything and everyone else have gone. The arrest of the monster is the beginning of a new life, one that seemed impossible to imagine – there are no cages anymore, but the characters are nevertheless stuck in their own minds, made of memories and scars they can’t forget. Luca’s father was his bridge to reality, he was his moral compass, someone to look up to. After the death of his mother, he had become his whole family. And throughout this whole time, he was monster. Where does this leave Luca? Is he a monster too, for sharing is father’s blood? Meanwhile, Laura is trying hard to live again. Her mother doesn’t know how to talk to her. Laura smiles, she acts normal. She likes to wander around the city – she likes to get lost in the crowd. But sometimes she feels the need to be surrounded by walls. She locks herself in a random bathroom. She could stay there for hours, until someone knocks. No one knows what she’s doing in there. Ossigeno is a matrioska. Characters close themselves in dark boxes – and a boy in Wyoming hides in a locket, not knowing he has always been captive inside someone else’s nightmare. Ossigeno is not a psychological thriller – it is not a crime novel. It is a story of dark roots and curious, eerie minds. Of secrets buried so deep that become seeds for madness. Of masks worn so tightly they become your own skin. But what’s underneath, no matter how hard you try, is still there. Hidden. Observing. Waiting to see what happens. Sasha Naspini’s previous novel, Le Case del malcontento, was sold in China, Korea, Greece and Turkey and is being considered by many publishers worldwide. Its passionate, extremely sophisticated story-telling and unforgettable characterization makes it a psychological masterpiece, an analysis on the complexity of human nature – I would say it’s the Italian Spoon River Anthology, and the title has also been compared to Lincoln in the Bardo by George Saunders. With a vernacular yet classical, literary language, and multiple points of view, Le Case is an epic rural tale with a universal echo. The novel plays with genres, mixing noir, psychological thriller, historical memoir and dark fairy-tale.
