Paraletteratura. Lingua e stile dei generi di consumo
br. L'espansione dei generi di consumo ha risvegliato negli ultimi anni l'interesse per tutte le scritture ispirate più dal desiderio di raggiungere un vasto consenso di pubblico che dall'ambizione di lasciare un'impronta originale e durevole nella storia letteraria. Le letture d'intrattenimento appaiono caratterizzate da forme espressive distanti dalla letteratura più accreditata; la loro maggiore accessibilità, d'altro canto, ha favorito nel corso dei secoli l'allargamento dell'alfabetizzazione e la diffusione dell'italiano comune. Nel volume si analizzano le peculiarità stilistiche e linguistiche di un'ampia produzione d'intrattenimento: dall'antica stampa popolare alla contemporanea chick-lit, dal "rosa" al "giallo", dalla narrativa per l'infanzia al fumetto, dal feuilleton al fotoromanzo.

Ricci Sindoni P. (cur.)
Un filosofo tra i filosofi. Karl Jaspers e il pensiero occidentale
br. Questa raccolta di saggi, scritti da Karl Jaspers negli anni fra il 1947 e il 1955 e per la prima volta tradotti in italiano dalla cura, dalla competenza e dalla passione di giovani studiosi, è volta ad approfondire l'intrigante tematica relativa al rapporto fra la filosofia e la sua storia e può rappresentare una risposta al valore costruttivo della tradizione occidentale, che sembra ormai offuscarsi. Compaiono qui saggi più teorici, legati alla problematizzazione dell'idea di "storia mondiale della filosofia" e altri più di carattere storiografico, dedicati a Senofane, Cusano, Goethe, Kant e Kierkegaard, tratti dai due volumi jaspersiani:" Weltgeschichte der Philosophie. Einleitung. Aus dem Nachlass hrsg. von Hans Sanex, Munchen 2013 e Aneignung und Polemik. Gesammelte Reden und Aufsàtze zur Geschichte der Philosophie, Munchen 1968."

Riccioli Maria Lucia
Caro nome. Il mistero dell'angelo di Mariannina Coffa
br. «Mariannina Coffa ritorna, visionaria e sognante, nelle pagine potenti di Maria Lucia Riccioli, ricercatrice appassionata, frequentatrice disinvolta degli spazi più nascosti dell'universo femminile, esploratrice di carte taciute e mappe geografiche ancora da tracciare, dall'Inghilterra di Jane Austen alla Sicilia della Capinera di Noto. In un Ottocento di periferia, lontano dagli snodi principali del sapere, l'esperienza di Mariannina Coffa matura nella doppiezza di un Io sensibilissimo e al contempo disgregato, fatalmente circondato dalle spire insidiose della società, della famiglia, del matrimonio forzato, delle incombenze domestiche, dei lutti filiali, tanto che per sopravvivere, per allontanarsi dalla fossa a cui spesso rivolge lo sguardo, si concede evasioni letterarie utilizzando la scrittura come medium tra il mondo immaginifico che la ispira - creato per sopperire le mancanze del quotidiano - e la realtà asfittica nella quale è costretta» (Dalla Prefazione di Stefano Vaccaro). Con una nota di Marinella Fiume.

Ricciotti Michele
Provare l'io. Julius Evola e la filosofia
br. Arte, storia ed esoterismo sono solo alcuni dei variegati ambiti del sapere entro cui il controverso pensiero di Julius Evola si destreggia. Evola fu però anzitutto un filosofo ed è in quanto tale che questo lavoro intende interrogarne criticamente la riflessione. Intrecciando istanze neoidealistiche e suggestioni "volontaristiche", la prospettiva evoliana si configura come un estremo tentativo di «provare l'Io» oltre ogni sua semplice dimostrazione. Se da un lato ciò conduce ad una riconfigurazione del rapporto tra teoria e prassi tale che la prima tende a risolversi nella seconda, d'altro canto tale risoluzione rimane vincolata ad un criterio di certezza (Evola lo chiamerà «valore») che mina la stessa possibilità di una prova risolutivamente magica dell'Io. Può la prassi ricondurre a sé il criterio sulla base del quale viene postulata? È possibile soddisfare l'esigenza di una prassi senza riconfermare l'inquietudine che l'ha generata? Il presente lavoro rappresenta il tentativo di assumere una postura corretta dinanzi a tali quesiti, interrogando le premesse teoretiche che fondano l'intero orizzonte delle ramificazioni "extrafilosofiche" della riflessione evoliana.

Riccobono M. G. (cur.)
Biografia e memoria poetica. Foscolo e Manzoni lettori di Dante
br. Quali connessioni emergono tra Dante e due lettori d'eccezione del XIX secolo come Foscolo e Manzoni? Questo volumetto tratteggia alcuni aspetti del loro diverso rapporto con la Commedia. Le analisi degli autori mettono in luce come il primo incontro di Foscolo con Dante, all'inizio del frammento Della poesia lucreziana, sia riconducibile al magistero di Alfieri; delineano l'immagine di sé stesso come exul immeritus e alter Dante costruitasi da Foscolo; provano che in Manzoni, fino all'Adelchi, è attiva una memoria dei significanti danteschi indipendente dai significati e mostrano che le similitudini di origine dantesca nei Promessi sposi riproducono il contatto tra lussuria, violenza e politica, intesa questa come cupidigia-volontà di potenza.

Riccobono Teresa
Il matrimonio in Sicilia tra Ottocento e Novecento. Riti e usanze
ill., br. Questo libro è frutto di uno studio rigoroso che traccia un vero e proprio itinerario attraverso tutte le fasi di questa particolare tappa della vita dell'uomo così come è stata vissuta dalla società dell'Isola dall'Ottocento fino ai nostri giorni. Avendo come punto di riferimento la documentazione trasmessaci da illustri folkloristi e antropologi ottocenteschi come Giuseppe Pitrè, S. Salomone Marino, Amabile Guastella, Ernesto De Martino, sono stati utilizzati, oltre ai giornali dell'epoca e ai registri relativi ai "Riveli di beni e di anime", la fonte notarile presente nell'Archivio storico di Palermo e analizzato i dati principali che essa offre in questo senso: i capitoli matrimoniali e i testamenti. Dalle tavole nuziali e dai catasti onciari sono state attinte indicazioni sulla mentalità e sulla cultura materiale della famiglia siciliana, sui riti e costumi connessi al matrimonio, a ciò che lo precede e lo segue in una Sicilia, che a dispetto della sua siderale distanza, caratterizza il nostro presente globalizzato. Ne viene fuori uno spaccato della società del tempo, incardinata sui valori patrimoniali e attenta al rispetto di regole consuetudinarie e giuridiche propedeutiche al corretto raggiungimento dei fini matrimoniali, non sempre basati sui valori di un sentimento amoroso.

San Francisco Shanghai / Macao / Hong Kong: The Trans-Pacific Chinese Junk Expedition Inc 1939. Letters are dated: Nov 20 1938; Jan 18th 1939; Jan 27th 1939; and Feb 16th 1939. Though typewritten and mimeographed all four are personally signed by Halliburton. Letters typewritten to buff paper envelopes with blue seal of the "Sea Dragon" with illustration printed to front. Modest wear to paper some light age-toning and rubbing to papers. Envelopes rubbed and worn. Withal a VG lot. Pages within the letters: 5 3 4 3 Total of 16 typewritten pages. Two black and white Kodak photographs are included printed in 1957 presumably from a negative of Robert Pullen's famous shots of the "Sea Dragon" taken just before its doomed maiden voyage. Letters: 14" x 8-1/2". Photographs:. <br/><br/>Who took the first aerial picture of Mount Everest after receiving express permission by stunning the Majarajah of Nepal with bi-plane aerobatics Richard Halliburton was a legendary American travel writer and adventurer. Reading stories of his feats and antics seem surreal - after all who flies an airplane upside down over the Taj Mahal Halliburton was born in January of 1900 in Brownsville Tennessee. Deciding at an early age not to settle down and grow old with a wife and family as the rest of his family and friends seemed to be doing. After graduating from Princeton Halliburton traveled on as many adventures as possible and published his first novel The Royal Road to Romance in 1925 at the tender age of 25. His first novel became a bestseller and was followed by more published adventures in 1927 and 1929. He enjoyed fame and adventures for a little over a decade before deciding in 1938 that his next grand feat would be to cross the Pacific ocean from Hong Kong to the San Francisco International Exposition in a Chinese Junk ship made expressly for his purposes. It is on this voyage that Halliburton and the entire crew of the Junk the "Sea Dragon" were lost at sea having gotten caught in a typhoon. In 1945 a 150-foot ship outline with Chinese lettering washed ashore in California this thought to possibly be some of the wreckage of the "Sea Dragon." Letter I: Halliburton describes the arrival in China and purpose of the expedition as well as his interest in junks stemming from a 1 ft. scale model he sailed as a child. He explains that he chose to use a junk for his journey because of their stability and notes that it is possible it will not be the smoothest ride. He quips: "If the junk should be small the storms violent and the voyage long - all the better. For if there is no hazard no battle where is the sport" He introduces the "friends" of the expedition to his crew of Captain John Welch Henry von Fehren "Bru" Potter among others. Halliburton also spends a significant amount of time discussing the war with China and Japan and the Japanese belief systems. Letter 2: The second letter discusses the search for an appropriate junk and the ultimate decision to build their own that could be modified for the journey. Working with the man said to be the best ship-builder in Hong Kong Mr. Fat Kau and the appropriation of a few more crew members a chef and a radio operator. Letter 3: The third letter posted from Canton desribes their taking the Sea Dragon out for a "shake down" cruise with Mr. Fat Kau as his guest who though a builder of ships had never sailed on one and with high seas nearly everyone aboard became seasick. Halliburton notes the dry deck despite the high waves and believes he was right about the Sea Dragon's sea-worthiness. Much of the rest of the letter is spent discussing Canton the disputes between the Chinese and Japanese the destruction the looters and other conditions in the city. Letter 4: After setting out on their voyage the Sea Dragon needed to return after only 2 days due to sickness on the boat. Though Halliburton seems only a trifle annoyed at the delay of their voyage he is excited enough to try again and leaves his readers with this: "In about another week we plan to leave again to slip away as quietly as possible and head east once more around the southern tip of Formosa - and straight on to Midway. If all goes well the next letter the fifth will carry an American stamp for Midway Island is American. When this the fourth letter reaches you we'll be a thousand miles along the way - I hope.
