‎Cronaca di Akakor. Mito e saga di un antico popolo dell'Amazzonia‎

‎ill. Karl Brugger riporta un racconto, trasmessogli oralmente, che dopo dubbi iniziali gli è parso autentico. Akakor, situata tra Brasile e Perù, sta aspettando di essere scoperta. Il libro racconta la storia dei popoli che abitavano la città e risale a 12.000 anni fa. Finora non si conosce data più remota di una testimonianza trasmessaci di una civiltà altamente evoluta. Tatunca Nara, sovrano e principe del popolo degli Ugha Mongulala, racconta la gloriosa ma anche tragica storia del suo popolo. Ci parla di una civiltà molto evoluta, fondata su un sapere divino e, sotto molti aspetti, superiore a quello dei Maya e degli Inca.‎

‎Dalle maschere al carnevale. Curiosità, storia e tradizioni‎

‎brossura Il Carnevale è la festa nella quale tutto è permesso, anche quello di rifiutare la propria identità per cercarne un'altra attraverso la scelta di una maschera che può soddisfare e realizzare i nostri intimi desideri rendendoci ciò che vorremmo essere. Ma è solo all'interno di una collettività, che naturalmente spinge al confronto, che può realizzarsi l'affermazione di essere "altro" da sé. Per un breve attimo tutti si trasformano in personaggi effimeri ma eterni nella loro chimera, consci di poter vivere solo e unicamente all'interno della grande illusione che si rappresenta sul grande palcoscenico del Carnevale. Poi quando le luci si abbasseranno, le maschere verranno riposte e la vita di tutti i giorni riprenderà il sopravvento, rimarrà in noi ciò che è l'essenza della maschera, ciò per la quale è stata creata: l'idea di libertà.‎

‎Binari in Val Sangone. Storia per immagini della tranvia Torino-Orbassano-Piossasco-Giaveno-Cumiana-Pinerolo (1881-1958)‎

‎ill., ril. Il volume, attraverso una ricca serie di cartoline e fotografie, racconta la storia di una delle nove tranvie intercomunali torinesi che, partendo dalla capitale sabauda, servivano il territorio circostante. Questa linea tranviaria, conosciuta con il semplicistico appellativo di "trenino di Giaveno", era ben più articolata: fin dal 1881 infatti congiungeva Torino a Orbassano; da qui si dipartivano due rami, uno che - attraverso Bruino e Trana - raggiungeva Giaveno (1883); l'altro che toccava Piossasco (1882). Da lì, in tempi successivi, la tranvia venne ulteriormente estesa fino a raggiungere Cumiana (1889) e Pinerolo (1899). L'attraversamento di ciascun nucleo abitato è abbondantemente documentato con numerose immagini; il sintetico testo che le accompagna descrive lo sviluppo della linea seguendone il percorso. Numerosi box, poi, approfondiscono gli aspetti più importanti della tranvia dal punto di vista storico, economico e sociale. Non manca l'approfondimento tecnico, con la descrizione delle vaporiere in attività nell'epoca pionieristica del servizio tranviario ed un capitolo è dedicato all'elettrificazione della linea, che venne soppressa nel 1958.‎
