‎Bogia nen! Proverbi piemontesi per resistere con coraggio‎

‎br. Bogia nen!, resisti! Dalle fortificazioni dell'Assietta alla vita di tutti i giorni, è fondamentale la capacità di fronteggiare con coraggio gli eventi: dall'eccezionale al quotidiano. Il coraggio serve sempre e - questa è una bella notizia - si può imparare e allenare. I proverbi piemontesi sono alleati straordinari. Contengono il distillato di una saggezza accumulata nei secoli: insegnamenti pratici, pronti per l'uso, alla portata di chiunque. Possono aiutarci nella sfida cui non ci si può sottrarre: avere più coraggio per vivere meglio.‎

‎Animali straordinari di Sicilia. Ediz. illustrata‎

‎ill., br. Esistono animali straordinari che dimorano da sempre in Sicilia, un'isola in bilico tra mitologia, storia e folklore. Animali, veri o fantastici, che nel corso del tempo si sono trasformati attraverso ibridazioni con altre specie: mutamenti talmente imprevedibili e misteriosi che hanno reso leggendaria la loro stessa esistenza. "Animali straordinari di Sicilia" è un'esplorazione del sorprendente mondo animale siciliano che, deviando dal corso di un'esistenza ordinaria in seguito allo scontro con la follia degli umani, dà forma a inimmaginabili specie, in alcuni casi ibridandosi perfino con la flora isolana. La loro straordinaria e difforme capacità di attraversare il tempo rappresenta un atto d'amore e di resistenza all'appiattimento e all'omologazione del presente. In allegato la Mappa degli animali straordinari di Sicilia.‎

‎Il cammino dei pellegrini. Ediz. illustrata‎

‎ill. Le tradizioni popolari italiane. Fatte di un misto di sacro e profano, non sempre comprensibili se non vissute direttamente, se non partecipate in prima persona, avvicinandosi ad esse con rispetto e senza preconcetti. Non è necessario credere per cogliere però il pathos che trasudano le immagini dei pellegrini, in questa suggestiva opera di Antonio Battista, non solo, curiosamente, al cospetto dell'icona della Madonna, ma lungo tutto un percorso che diventa spirituale perfino nel compimento degli atti più laici dell'organizzazione del viaggio, della logistica di un pellegrinaggio lungo, che si snoda per un percorso per nulla semplice. L'autore in queste pagine ha voluto fissare, riuscendovi, la forza della volontà di compartecipazione alla perpetuazione di un rito sacro. Trattasi dunque, di un fotoreportage con più di 150 foto, per raccontare il pellegrinaggio al santuario della Madonna dell'Arco con quasi 48 ore di emozioni illustrate dall'autore.‎
