Story
As one of the last remaining survivors of the Great Depression and the Second World War, I will not go gently into that good night. I want to tell you what the world looks like through my eyes, so you can help change it.... In November 2013, 91-year-old Yorkshireman, RAF veteran, and ex-carpet salesman Harry Leslie Smith’s Guardian article – "This year, I will wear a poppy for the last time" – was shared almost 60,000 times on Facebook and started a huge debate about the state of society.

Human beings have been battling one another since time immemorial. But why war and terrorism? Why are men almost always the killers, and why are war and sex so inextricably linked? Why do we kill members of our own species intentionally, when few other animals do so?

Story
Al Qaeda is no longer the central organizing force that aids or authorizes terrorist attacks or recruits terrorists. It is now more a source of inspiration for terrorist acts carried out by independent local groups that have branded themselves with the Al Qaeda name. Building on his previous groundbreaking work on the Al Qaeda network, forensic psychiatrist Marc Sageman has greatly expanded his research to explain how Islamic terrorism emerges and operates in the 21 century.

Story
Part memoir, part popular science, and part social commentary, Bottled Up probes breastfeeding politics through the lens of Barston’s own experiences as well as those of the women she has met through her popular blog, The Fearless Formula Feeder. Incorporating expert opinions, medical literature, and popular media into a pithy, often wry narrative, Barston offers a corrective to our infatuation with the breast. Impassioned, well-reasoned, and thoroughly researched, Bottled Up asks us to think with more nuance and compassion about whether breastfeeding should remain the holy grail of good parenthood.

Non c'è canzone al mondo capace di scatenare entusiasmi di piazza, cori ed euforia come Bella ciao, ma allo stesso tempo non c'è canzone così capace di suscitare dibattiti e dividere gli animi. Le note e le parole che tutti conosciamo nascondono un'energia che non ha pari nella musica popolare. In ogni manifestazione pubblica, a ogni anniversario, le note di Bella ciao sono simbolo di libertà e di liberazione. Ma dove nasce questa canzone?

Nuestros huesos son los testigos silenciosos de las vidas que llevamos. Nuestras historias están grabadas en su médula. Basándose en sus años de investigación y en su notable experiencia, la antropóloga forense de renombre mundial Sue Black nos lleva a un viaje de redescubrimiento, una visita guiada por el esqueleto humano que nos explica cómo la historia de la vida de cada persona se revela en sus huesos, a los que ella llama «los últimos centinelas de nuestra vida mortal que dan testimonio de cómo la hemos vivido».

Story
Nel discorso pubblico italiano e internazionale c’è una formula che ritorna costantemente: "la Germania ha saputo fare i conti con il nazismo". Se però andiamo a verificare quanto c’è di vero in questa frase, ci accorgiamo quanto il passato nazista abbia condizionato il lungo dopoguerra tedesco, generando una tacita e continua tensione, ma producendo solo occasionalmente effettive prese di responsabilità. In questo libro scopriremo come, dopo decenni di oblio e di silenzio interessato, si è cominciato ad affrontare questo tema.

Story
Che cos'è l'autorità nella Grecia antica? A lungo è stata negata la stessa esistenza di un termine greco che la definisca, e ci si è limitati a ricercare in quella cultura i sistemi di relazione sottesi al concetto romano di auctoritas. Prendendo le distanze da tale impostazione romano-centrica, l'autore individua le metafore culturali di cui i Greci si servono per elaborare la loro particolare nozione di auto rità, che non si presenta come qualità intrinseca dell'auctor, ma come "facoltà" concessa a qualcuno da una fonte esterna.

Quando il 10 maggio del 2020 la notizia della liberazione di Silvia Romano si diffonde nei social, la giovane rapita in Kenya diviene in pochi istanti il bersaglio di attacchi di ogni genere, tra auguri di morte, rabbiose accuse contro il mondo del volontariato, generici insulti sessisti. È bastato questo episodio per ricordarci la portata e la violenza di un fenomeno che la retorica dell'"Andrà tutto bene" sembrava aver ridimensionato.

Story
En 1976, mientras Milton Friedman recoge el Premio Nobel de Economía por sus logros en los campos del análisis del consumo y la teoría monetaria, el punk expande su mensaje de disonancia empujando los límites de lo decible hacia espacios hasta entonces poco conocidos. En ese mismo momento bandas como Iron Maiden comienzan a generar imaginarios extraños que canalizan algunas tendencias sociales; las pistas de baile exploran nuevas formas de relación cultural, y el espíritu nihilista de Iggy Pop flota en el ambiente.

Story
Les symboles ont un usage bien plus quotidien qu'on ne l'imagine. Comme le disait Aristote, "le mot chien ne mord pas", il est le symbole par lequel nous pouvons désigner la réalité du chien. Le rôle du symbolisme consiste donc à exprimer n'importe quelle idée d'une façon qui soit accessible à tout le monde. Cet ouvrage se propose d'analyser les mutations des signes depuis leur apparition jusqu'à leur lointaine métamorphose, notamment dans le domaine des mythes, et d'étudier ce qui se dresse entre la chose et l'idée : le symbole.

Story
As late as the 1960s, the Wari' Indians of the western Amazonian rainforest ate the roasted flesh of their dead as an expression of compassion for the deceased and for his or her close relatives. By removing and transforming the corpse, Wari' death rites helped the bereaved kin accept their loss and go on with their lives. Drawing on the recollections of Wari' elders who participated in consuming the dead, this book presents one of the richest, most authoritative ethnographic accounts of funerary cannibalism ever recorded.

Story
Si può appartenere a una tradizione senza esserne prigionieri? E si può immaginare la propria identità senza ricorrere alla metafora delle radici? La risposta è sì, basta riflettere su che cosa significa, propriamente, ciascuna di queste parole: per rendersi conto che l’identità, oggetto indefinibile, proprio per questo ha un disperato bisogno di metafore per essere maneggiata; che la tradizione non è qualcosa che si eredita per via genetica - o che la memoria trasmette meccanicamente da una generazione all’altra - ma la si costruisce e la si insegna passo dopo passo, che le radici, infine, sono un’immagine ingannevole ed escludente.

L'area che, partendo dalle porte di Trieste, si estende lino a quelle di Salonicco rimane per molti, nella sua struttura storica e umana, una zona grigia, priva di una precisa fisionomia, simile a quelle terre inesplorate che gli antichi cartografi si limitavano a descrivere con uno sbrigativo "hic sunt leones". In realtà, quella fascià di territorio è da un millennio e mezzo teatro di un drammatico scontro di popoli, civiltà e religioni.
