Timbri dei censori estensi alla prima ed ultima carta. Un disegno a matita realizzato tra fine ottocento ed i primi del novecento con ritratto di un uomo.

Appolonia Giorgio
Il tenore rossiniano. Primi interpreti, nuove voci
ril. Forse non tutti sanno che Rossini ebbe due vite: fu dominatore incontrastato del panorama lirico internazionale fino all'età di 37 anni; ritiratosi dalla scena pubblica, rimase fino alla morte un punto di riferimento del mondo teatrale. O ancora, attraverso i secoli: fu musicista di successo in vita, forse come nessun altro; ritornò in voga nel Novecento, con la Rossini Renaissance di cui ancora oggi godiamo i frutti. Da questa duplice esistenza muove il saggio di Giorgio Appolonia, seguendo la trama delle prime interpretazioni rossiniane e l'ordito delle attuali. Uno studio sui generis, capace di accattivare il semplice curioso, di rispondere ai molti interrogativi del professionista, di fornire allo studioso dati indispensabili.

Aresi Paolo
La stella rossa di Korolev. Korolev. Vol. 3
br. Il terzo romanzo del ciclo di Korolev: oltre il Sistema Solare alla ricerca degli antichi marziani. La trilogia di Korolev parte da una scoperta sensazionale: il grande Progettista Capo del programma spaziale dell'Unione Sovietica non è morto, come si credeva, nel gennaio del 1966. Viene rintracciato vivo, su Marte, alla fine del XXI secolo: è l'inizio di un'avventura che stupisce, eppure rigorosa, nella tradizione di A.C. Clarke e Stanislaw Lem. In questo terzo e conclusivo romanzo, Korolev guida l'equipaggio dell'astronave Marco Polo dal pianeta Eris, all'estrema periferia del Sistema Solare, a Nemesis, la stella nana rossa, spesso ipotizzata dai nostri astronomi a un anno luce dal Sole. Per poi lanciarsi in una cavalcata interstellare fino ad Antares, perché laggiù è custodito il segreto dei Costruttori e un altro mistero: chi è e dove si cela il vero e grande Nemico dell'umanità. Un romanzo cosmico e profondamente umano. Una space-opera astronautica che spalanca scenari mozzafiato su temi astrofisici che affascinano, dalla materia all'energia oscura.
