TIBOR MENDE
CONVERSAZIONI CON NEHRU
DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO. «Viaggiando per l'India di questi tempi, uno ha la sensazione di muoversi in un palcoscenico su cui stia per svolgersi qualcosa d'importante», dice a Nehru Tibor Mende, il noto esperto di problemi asiatici, collaboratore di «Le Monde», ed è questa la sensazione che anche il più distante osservatore ha in questo momento, considerando il mondo indiano in movimento. Il recente viaggio in Italia di Nehru e l'ancor più recente visita dei capi sovietici in India hanno acuito le curiosità e l'interesse per le soluzioni politiche della nuova nazione asiatica e per la figura eccezionale del suo Primo Ministro, il colto e nobile discepolo di Gandhi. Questo libro, in cui Nehru parla con la sua voce, sotto la sollecitazione puntuale e pungente del giornalista occidentale, giunge a proposito per soddisfare il nostro interesse. Mende ha registrato i suoi colloqui con Nehru su nastro magnetico, e il testo, qui tradotto dall'inglese, con serva tutta la spontaneità del discorso diretto. Alle domande del suo inter locutore, Nehru viene via via precisando, oltre che la linea di sviluppo della sua formazione culturale e politica (dagli anni giovanili di Cambridge, quando leggeva Mazzini e Shaw, all'incontro con Gandhi, alla resistenza passiva e al carcere), gli aspetti complessi dell'attuale situazione interna indiana, e le varie soluzioni che il suo governo ha elaborato. Riforma agraria, abolizione delle caste, industrializzazione, scambi e rapporti economici con l'Occidente, neutralità, non interferenza, relazioni con gli Stati Uniti e con l'U.R.S.S., posizione di fronte all'Inghilterra e al colonialismo, politica asiatica, sono tra gli argomenti che la conversazione approfondisce con vivace immediatezza. Nel più vasto quadro di quel fatto ormai indiscutibile che è il risveglio dei popoli asiatici, e che costituisce il fenomeno di maggior portata verificatosi sulla scena mondiale in questi ultimi anni, la presenza dell'In dia, il suo accorto dinamismo diplomatico, l'opera di mediazione tra i due blocchi, la sua coraggiosa politica di equidistanza, hanno fatto sì che oggi si possa parlare, tanto sul piano dei rapporti internazionali come su quello economico e sociale, di una vera e propria «via indiana», che ha già, anche per l'Occidente, valore d'esempio. Informazioni bibliografiche Titolo: Conversazioni con Nehru Titolo originale: Conversations Collana: Volume 200 di Saggi Autori: Tibor Mende, Jawaharlal Nehru Editore: Torino: Giulio Einaudi, 1956 Lunghezza: 167 pagine; 22 cm Soggetti: Politica internazionale, India, Giornalismo, Reportage, Le Monde, Inchieste, Interviste, Mahatma Gandhi, Pacifismo, Cultura, Nuova Delhi, URSS, Stati Uniti, Riforma agraria, Anni cinquanta, Guerra Fredda, Comunismo, Capitalismo, Asia, Colonialismo, Imperialismo, Diplomazia, Economia, Società, Via indiana, Cina, Giappone, Pakistan, Nehru, Jawaharlal, Storia contemporanea, Krishna, Indipendenza, Non-violenza, Lotta politica indiana, Unione Sovietica, Bertrand Russel, Madras, Hindu, British Raj, Kashmir, Punjab, Dalai Lama, Geopolitica, Libri Vintage fuori catalogo, International politics, India, Journalism, Investigations, Interviews, Pacifism, Culture, New Delhi, USSR, United States, Land reform, 1950s, Cold war, Communism, Capitalism, Asia, Colonialism, Imperialism, Diplomacy, Economy, Society, Indian way , China, Japan, Contemporary history, Independence, Non-violence, Indian political struggle, Soviet Union, Geopolitics, Out of print books

TILLOTSON GILES
Taj Mahal
Harvard University Press Cambridge Massachusetts and London England: 2012. Softcover. Brand new book. An enduring monument of haunting beauty the Taj Mahal seems a symbol of stability itself. The familiar view of the glowing marble mausoleum from the gateway entrance offers the very picture of permanence. And yet this extraordinary edifice presents a shifting image to observers across time and cultures. The meaning of the Taj Mahal the perceptions and responses it prompts ideas about the building and the history that shape them: these form the subject of Giles Tillotson's book. More than a richly illustrated history�though it is that as well�this book is an eloquent meditation on the place of the Taj Mahal in the cultural imagination of India and the wider world. Since its completion in 1648 the mausoleum commissioned by the fifth Mughal emperor Shah Jahan for his wife Mumtaz Mahal has come to symbolize many things: the undying love of a man for his wife the perfection of Mughal architecture the ideal synthesis of various strands of subcontinental aesthetics even an icon of modern India itself. Exploring different perspectives brought to the magnificent structure�by a Mughal court poet an English Romantic traveler a colonial administrator an architectural historian or a contemporary Bollywood filmmaker�this book is an incomparable guide through the varied and changing ideas inspired by the Taj Mahal from its construction to our day. In Tillotson's expert hands the story of a seventeenth-century structure in the city of Agra reveals itself as a story about our own place and time. Giles Tillotson is an art historian specializing in South Asia and the author of many books including Jaipur Nama: Tales from the Pink City. "The Taj Mahal is one of the most instantly recognizable buildings in the world endlessly painted and photographed and currently welcoming an average of 8000 visitors a day. Giles Tillotson's sprightly account of its structure and history the stories that have accumulated around it and the impression it has made on tourists down the centuries is a welcome addition to Harvard's 'Wonders of the World' series. These books are not only architectural monographs; they are equally concerned with what buildings mean and few structures have meant more different things to people than the Taj Mahal� Witty and authoritative this book achieves the remarkable feat of making us look again at a building we might otherwise think altogether too familiar."�Peter Parker The Daily Telegraph "Tillotson's accessible and enjoyable style will engage a broader readership. Like every author in Harvard's 'Wonders of the World' series Tillotson considers not only architectural history but also cultural heritage and resonance�picturesque 18th-century aquatints of the Taj early 20th-century restorations by Lord Curzon literary responses such as Rabindranath Tagore's poem 'a teardrop on the cheek of time' and the famous photo of Princess Diana posing alone in front of the 'monument to love' shortly before her marriage break-up� Tillotson airs the many myths and legends with relish; then slays most of them with facts and reason and a generous helping of illustrations."�Andrew Robinson The Independent "For all its fame remarkably little has been written on the Taj Majal and Giles Tillotson's slim and balanced book is without question the best short introduction yet produced� This is a much-needed and eminently readable book that is likely to remain a standard work for many years to come."�William Dalrymple The Sunday Times "This wry brisk book is a delightful and fascinating excavation of the Taj Mahal's many layers of meanings. Giles Tillotson deploys his formidable knowledge of India's artistic and cultural history to create a kaleidoscopic interpretation of the Taj�he unravels the fables and myths incited by this sublime creation and yet succeeds in keeping its unworldly aura intact."�Sunil Khilnani author of The Idea of India Harvard University Press, Cambridge, Massachusetts and London England: 2012 paperback
