Gamba, Bartolommeo (Bassano 1766 – Venezia 1841) [a cura di]
IL FIORE DI RETTORICA DI FRATE GUIDOTTO DA BOLOGNA POSTO GIÀ IN LUCE DA BARTOLOMMEO GAMBA ED IN QUESTA EDIZIONE CORREDATO DI NOTE. TESTO DI LINGUA.
Legatura tardo ottocentesca in mezzza pergamena con titoli dorati su tasselli sul dorso, 8vo cm14x22, pp XXIV 180 (2). Di questo volgarizzamento duecentesco della Rhetorica ad Herennium (erroneamente attribuita a Cicerone, così come dubbia e l'identità dell'autore, Guidotto o Galeotto) Gamba curò l'edizione (Venezia 1821) basandosi sui Codici della Marciana, sulla precedente edizione di Domenico Maria Manni e su edizioni incunabole in suo possesso; nella sua “Serie di Testi di Lingua” il bibiografo cita questa ristampa forlivese, presumibilmente apocrifa, con certa stizza e sbagliandone la data: “Non conosco una ristampa data in Forlì, 1834, che sta in qualche Catalogo registrata”. Alle note e introduzione di Gamba si accompagnano una breve prefazione e una serie di note aggiunte.

Moonwebs - Journey Into the Mind of a Cult
216 pages including bibliography. Moderate wear. Light soiling. Some yellowing to contents. Gives a first hand description of the Moonies Boonville indoctrination camp, which the aughor himself visited; and it tells Benji Miller's story of his own indoctrination - a powerful nightmarish account of a human mind taken apart then put back together at someone else's direction. It tells the thrilling, moving, sometimes funny story of a six week transcontinental odyssey to rescue a friend. Describes the deprogramming of Benji Miller; an eye-witness account of a virtual exorcism. Looks behind the mask of the Rev. Sun Myung Moon and his growing political and financial empire. Above all, offers a serious, penetrating look at cult 'brainwashing' techniques and their relationship to our society. The first book to look at what cults do to people... and how it can be undone.
