Secret. Formules de guerison utilisées en Vallée d'Aoste
brossura In questo lavoro, a carattere etnografiico, è stato preso in considerazione un aspetto particolare del più vasto campo dei rimedi empirici di utilizzo popolare: le formule di guargione o secret. Il secret è stato tramandato per secoli nel silenzio e la semplicità, l'umiltà e l'accettazione della volontà divina sono stati e sono ancora oggi gli elementi base per poterlo praticare. La Valle d'Aosta è una regione prevalentemente montana dove le piccole realtà di villaggio e di paese hanno mantenuto, in modo quasi inalterato, l'antico sapere della tradizione orale quale espressione di una cultura contadina legata ai ritmi naturali della vita e all'utilizzo di medicamenti semplici per la cura del corpo e dell'anima.

Cozzani Ettore
Leggende della Lunigiana storica. Dal Golfo dei poeti alle Apuane
ill., br. Personaggio della scena letteraria dei primi decenni del Novecento, Ettore Cozzani riversa in questo libro tutto l'amore per la sua terra natale, la ridente e aspra regione della Lunigiana storica. L'autenticità dell'ispirazione fa sì che la sua forte espressività riesca ad animare scarne leggende paesane con tono vibrante. La tematica religiosa assume aspetti visionari, suggestivi, in cui una nave senza vele e senza equipaggio trasporta miracolosamente il Preziosissimo Sangue di Cristo fino alla foce del Magra, o le coste di tutto il mondo si parano davanti agli occhi di un pellegrino dall'altura della Castellana (un monte sopra Porto Venere), o il Diavolo stesso appare in groppa a un cavallo rosso con occhi lampeggianti di verde a promettere a un povero disperato ricchezza e felicità terrena in cambio dell'anima. Comico e scanzonato il racconto sulle rivalità tra due paesi vicini, che si traduce in una vera e propria gara di stupidità. Ma il vero protagonista di queste leggende non è l'uomo con le sue passioni e la sua fede: sono la terra e il mare della Lunigiana, i suoi profumi e i suoi scorci rocciosi e lo sciabordio delle onde nelle insenature.

Crapanzano, Francesco
Koyré, Galileo e il vecchio sogno di Platone
Il volume vuole offrire un contributo alla ricostruzione di un itinerario intellettuale fra i più fecondi del secolo scorso, quello di Alexandre Koyré, esaminando una parte della sua produzione apparentemente secondaria. Infatti, è dalla riflessione su Platone, nella lettura etico-politica ed epistemologica che ne ha dato il grande storico del pensiero scientifico, che emerge tanto la complessità e la ricchezza del suo approccio quanto l'originalità e l'audacia della tesi storiografica sul platonismo galileiano. The development of Alexandre Koyré's thought, one of the most prolific intellectuals of the past century, is here analysed starting from an apparently minor part of his production. Koyré's ethical, political, and epistemological interpretation of Plato's philosophy, in fact, represents a relevant starting point to appreciate the complexity and richness of the contributions offered by the great historian of scientific thought, as well as the audacity of his thesis on Galileo's platonism.
