Dietro le quinte della tragedia russa. 1917-1918.

Thames & Hudson 2011, cm.19x25, pp. 84, color and 132 black-and-white illustrations hardcover, dustjacket. With numerous factfiles, reconstructions, scroll photographs, and a wealth of other illustrations, it is the most comprehensive and accessible account available on the Dead Sea Scrolls. Ever since the first scrolls were found in the Judaean desert in 1947, the Dead Sea Scrolls have been the subject of passionate speculation and controversy. The possibility that they might challenge assumptions about ancient Judaism and the origins of Christianity, coupled with the extremely limited access imposed for many years, only fueled debate on their meanings. With all the scrolls now available in translation, conclusions can be drawn as to the authorship and origins, their implications for Christianity and Judaism, and their link with the ancient site of Qumran. This book, written by three noted scholars in the field, draws together all the evidence to present a fully illustrated survey of every major manuscript.

Venezia, Marsilio Ed. 2013, cm.12x20,5, pp.156, brossura cop.fig.a col. Coll.I grilli. Molte cose sono cambiate da quando Angela Merkel, l'ex "ragazzina" di Kohl, al suo primo mandato, governava a capo di una grande coalizione. Oggi tutta l'Europa deve fare i conti con la peggiore crisi economica e finanziaria dal dopoguerra e la Germania, che l'affronta in una posizione di forza, viene messa sul banco degli imputati, accusata di non essere sufficientemente solidale. Sentimenti nazionalistici e pregiudizi antitedeschi riemergono, con la complicità di una stampa internazionale che parla alla "pancia" dei cittadini europei, mentre spesso trascura di fornire un quadro chiaro delle dinamiche in corso. Dopo aver raccontato per prima, nel 2009, la leader che si apprestava a essere eletta al suo secondo mandato, in questo libro Veronica De Romanis, forte di una profonda conoscenza della realtà tedesca, offre una chiave di lettura alternativa degli eventi che hanno portato la cancelliera a subire un così radicale cambio di immagine: da donna "più potente del mondo" a "più criticata", quando non addirittura odiata. Partendo dagli errori che da più direzioni vengono attribuiti ad Angela Merkel, il libro mette in luce i punti chiave della sua strategia per affrontare la crisi, le ragioni da cui ha origine e gli ostacoli che ha dovuto fronteggiare, non ultimi i vincoli istituzionali interni e un'opinione pubblica tedesca sempre più riluttante verso i salvataggi degli stati che non hanno rispettato le regole e non hanno fatto le riforme.
