Brossura. Condition: new. Cuneo, 2026; br., pp. 136, cm 14,2x21. A Bossolasco, un'incisione su pietra di silene ricorda il soggiorno di Fenoglio in quella località di alta Langa, pochi mesi prima della morte. Il suo mese di confino, come ebbe a scrivere a Italo Calvino. Il paese invece, aveva una sua vivacità artistica e culturale che fece bene allo scrittore, anche se il suo destino era ormai segnato. Fu ospite di Demetrio Veglio, gran patron del ristorante albergo Bellavista e appassionato d'arte. È la stagione in cui a Bossolasco soggiornano Casorati, Menzio e molti altri artisti torinesi. Aveva bisogna di aria pulita per i suoi polmoni gravemente contaminati. Dopo la sua scomparsa, avvenuta tra la notte del 17 e 18 febbraio del 1963, era a disposizione del suo pubblico di lettori, la silloge di racconti I ventitré giorni della città di Alba del 1952, La malora del 1954, pubblicati entrambi presso Einaudi, nella collana I Gettoni mentre da Garzanti era uscito Primavera di bellezza nel 1959. Questa seconda edizione rinnovata e ampliata è più meditata e profonda. La prima nacque un poco come "instant book" all'interno delle dinamiche del centenario fenogliano. In particolare, attorno al valore attribuito a La malora e ai suoi luoghi. In questa nuova edizione tutto si stempera in una lettura più equilibrata in cui viene restituito totale affetto e ruolo al Partigiano Johnny e alla sua forza narrativa. La precedente edizione conteneva già una parte innovativa legata alla storia del Pavaglione, della famiglia Martino sua antica proprietaria: in questa nuova edizione ho approfondito ancor di più, a seguito di una specifica pubblicazione nata attorno all'edificio Memorie del Pavaglione. Infine questo scritto propone un nuovo capitolo in assoluto originale, dedicato al romanzo garzantiano Primavera di bellezza visto da una prospettiva poco frequentata ossia visto direttamente da Roma, addirittura nello specifico, visto dal quartiere di Montesacro, nel quale sono ambientate tante belle pagine del romanzo, in cui un Fenoglio autobiografico organizza la narrazione proprio attorno alla scuola del quartiere che fu destinata ad ospitare il corso allievi ufficiali, l'attuale Istituto Comprensivo Don Bosco, poiché la Caserma di Pietralata era satura. Ho dunque visitato de visu i luoghi di cui scrive Fenoglio, alcuni dei quali si sono conservati tali e quali, ottenendone una prospettiva umana e mi par di poter dire insolita, spero che la mia scrittura sia riuscita a darne conto. La mia formazione di fenogliano sicuramente invece ne ha tratto grande giovamento. Libro.…

Brossura. Condition: new. Boves, 2024; br., pp. 128, cm 14,5x21. "L'intendimento di questo libro è quello di approfondire le radici e il contesto territoriale di dodici scrittori cuneesi, che fanno "Granda" la nostra provincia, la nostra letteratura di territorio. Essi sono tanto universali quanto fortemente legati alla loro terra, fino a stabilire una inestricabile serie di legami, di rimandi, di occasioni che li collegano. Molti sono accomunati a Fenoglio ed a Pavese, più a quest'ultimo invero, per il ruolo di catalizzatore che la sua figura ha esercitato proprio su quella generazione, investita dal destino della guerra e rinata con la ricostruzione. Di conseguenza un legame fortissimo tra di loro, si elabora sul tema della resistenza. Anche i viventi ne sono potentemente intrisi, si pensi a Oscar Farinetti erede di cotanto padre ma nemmeno Gianni Farinetti, ne è esente e a quegli ideali Aldo Cazzullo esplicitamente si ispira." (Dall'Introduzione). Libro.…

Softcover. Condition: f to vg. First edition. Folio. [277]-326, [201]-236, XIIpp (advertisement). Original illustrated wrappers with gold lettering to front cover. Striking issue of "Die Kunst im dritten Reich," the most important art magazine published in the Third Reich. Launched in January 1937, the magazine was published monthly, and had the particularity of having two variants. Ausgabe A contained only articles and photographs pertaining to fine arts, while Ausgabe B included the fine arts section of Ausgabe A to which was added an architectural section (Baukunst). This scarce copy contains both parts and has its architectural section entirely dedicated to the most iconic building of the Third Reich: the new Reichskanzlei (Reich Chancellery). Inaugurated in January 1939, Albert Speer's masterpiece was the embodiment of the power of the Nazi regime and Hitler's megalomaniac vision of a new architectural centre for the capital of Nazi Germany. The 37 striking b/w and color photographic reproductions of both interior and exterior views depict a building designed to impress and be the seat of a new German Empire. Photographs include the monumental entrance adorned with four pillars topped by the Nazi eagle holding a swastika; The great gates opening into a Court of Honor; The courtyard entrance flanked by Arno Breker's two larger-than-life bronze sculptures of male nudes (The Torch Bearer, and The Sword Bearer, also known as The Party and The Army); Hitler's office and apartment (400 square metres in size); A marble gallery (480 feet long) and various banquet halls and ballrooms. Five plates of architectural drawings and floor plans (including one large folded) concludes the "Baukunst" section. The second part of the magazine is devoted to the officially approved fine arts produced in the Third Reich. Includes b/w and color photographic reproductions of statues by Franz Mikorey, Hans Wimmer, Fritz Koelle, Ottmar Obermaier, Oswald Hofmann, Eugen Henke, Eugen Mayer-Fassold, etc. as well as watercolors and paintings by Paul Herrmann, Wilhelm Dachauer, Leo Frank, Hans Frank, Ferdinand Andri, Ludwig Wieden, Heinrich Krause, among others. Includes Hermann Gradl's six landscapes commissioned by Adolf Hitler himself for the new Reich Chancellery.
