This series stands out for a particular graphic style and for the abundance of photographs, specially made for these books.Other series on Rome are instead dedicated to in-depth studies on specific historical and customs themes, or on the mysterious aspects of the city that also reveal its dark side.In the MMC catalogue are other non-fiction books on topics such as Music, Interculture, Anthropology and a series of stories for children encouraging solidarity, non-violence and respect for the environment

        Schlechte Angewohnheiten

        Eine Anthologie 1750–1900

        by Bernhard Kleeberg

        Sie sind arbeitsscheu und abergläubisch, bilden sich nicht und zeugen zu viele Kinder, sie spielen, trinken und rauchen: Solche und ähnliche Qualifizierungen vermeintlich typischen Verhaltens der »anderen« – seien es Angehörige fremder Ethnien, Nationen oder der Unterschicht – verbinden sich häufig mit dem Hinweis, hier seien schlechte Angewohnheiten zur zweiten Natur geraten. In Kontexten der Fremd-, aber auch der Selbstdisziplinierung dienen »schlechte Angewohnheiten« der Markierung von Grenzen: der Willenskraft, der sittlichen Reife, der Klasse oder gar der Zivilisation, legitimiert unter anderem über wissenschaftliche, religiöse oder politische Wahrheitsinstanzen. Diese kommentierte Anthologie entfaltet die Wissensgeschichte dieser äußerst einflußreichen Diskursfigur anhand paradigmatischer Texte unter anderem von Montesquieu und Hume, Salzmann und Knigge, Lombroso und Ortiz.

        The Voices of Babyn Yar

        by Marianna Kiyanovska

        The poems in The Voices of Babyn Yar convey the experiences and emotions of ordinary people going through the tragic events of Babyn Yar massacre in Kyiv. Conceived as a tribute to the dead, the book raises difficult questions about memory, responsibility, and commemoration of those who had witnessed the horrors of human suffering. The book is illustrated by sketches of the Ukrainian artists Ada Rybachuk and Volodymyr Melnychenko. The same sketches were used for the construction of the monument commemorating the victims of Babyn Yar. The works of the artist Zinoviy Tolkachov "Talescoten", series "Majdanek", 1944, as well as a photo of Dmytro Peysakhov from the series "Babyn Yar" are also used in the publication.

        Tell Nobody

        by Sasha Kaminska

        Every girl or woman has plenty of secrets. But at times these special secrets, sometimes ancient and sometimes terrible, are hidden so deeply in the memory or subconsciousness that even the closest people don’t suspect of their existence. ‘Tell Nobody’ is not only the book’s title, but also the rule many girls and women live with. It’s related to physicality, shame, stress and abuse. Unable to share their emotions, discuss the problem and find the way out of the situation, the girls and women end up in the vicious circle of their feelings and emotions. The fourteen-year-old protagonist of ‘Tell Nobody’ rebels against her parents, does silly things, finds herself in dangerous situations and tries to understand and accept herself. 16+

        Narbut. Studies. Memoirs. Letters [A Supplemented Reproduction of the "Narbut Anthology", destroyed in 1933]

        by Bohdan Zavitii (compiler)

        This story behind this biographical memoir of a great artist begins before Narbut’s death. The best-known experts were invited to participate and contribute articles, which they spent many years preparing. But the Soviet censors “trimmed” the texts to their liking. When it was finally published in 1933, nearly all the authors had been repressed or executed. The anthology went under the knife at the printing press. It was a shame, too, because the paper was beautiful, specially allotted by the state printing press, as was the print. Only two incomplete copies remain, both in private collections. Serhii Bilokin first proposed the idea of the Narbut Anthology to Rodovid Press ten years ago, and now it is finally came to fruition with the support of the Ukrainian Cultural Foundation. This is thanks to Bohdan Zavitii, Anastasia Bilousova, and entire project team including designers Sasha Bychenko, Oleksii Salnykov, and Alina Bielova. The Institute of Art History, Folklore, and Ethnology, the National Art Museum of Ukraine, the Kharkiv Art Museum, and others assisted with the illustrations and texts. Heorhii Narbut was a decisive figure in twentieth-century Ukrainian art, yet the Communist taboos of the Soviet period ensured he remained unknown to a broader audience. This unique project fleshes out a significant aspect of art history and puts certain things back where they belong.

        Pickled pumpkins

        by Sasa Stanisic

        The collection of short stories "Pickled pumpkins" by Sasha Stanisic is an extremely compact, mature and skillful literary achievement in Macedonian literature. An achievement that, fortunately, will succeed in placing one of its neighborhoods, one of its suburbs, on the literary map of Skopje, which so far has not aroused special interest among any Macedonian writer. But that is only one of the other arguments for the value of this book.

        Sophie Braam ist Barkeeperin in einem eher gehobenen Etablissement, irgendwo in Virginia. Sie ist die Chefin hinterm Tresen und Übergriffigkeiten der männlichen Kundschaft gewöhnt.
