Baldassarri Fabio
Ilio Barontini. Fuoriuscito, internazionalista e partigiano
ill., br. Ilio Barontini è stato un antifascista che fu costrettoa fuggire all'estero. Ha avuto un'esistenza che per molti fuoriusciti solo una "fede" poteva rendere accettabile. Eppure la figura di questo terzinternazionalista non fu mai quella del sacerdote rosso. La sua azione - in Spagna a combattere la guerra civile, in Etiopia a portare avanti un'azione che aveva il sapore della disperazione, in Urss dove era facile il sospetto - lo rese sempre una figura problematica. Durante la Resistenza organizzò, diresse e istruì i 'franc tireurs' nella Francia Meridionale e i gappisti in Alta Italia. Conosciuto come Dario, fu comandante partigiano nell'Emilia Romagna. Alla fine della guerra, per i suoi meriti indiscussi, fu decorato tanto dall'Unione Sovietica che dagli Stati Uniti.

BALDINUCCI Filippo
NOTIZIE DEI PROFESSORI DEL DISEGNO DA CIMABUE IN QUA. Opera distinta in secoli e decennali con nuove annotazioni e supplementi per cura di F. Ranalli.
In-8 p. (mm. 220x135), 5 volumi, mezza pelle coeva, filetti e tit. oro al dorso, pp. 607; 666; 758; 715; 720. Nell’opera “si dimostra come, e per chi le belle arti di pittura, scultura e architettura, lasciata la rozzezza delle maniere greca e gotica, si siano in questi secoli ridotte all’antica loro perfezione”. Questa edizione porta in Appendice la ristampa della “Vita del Bernini” (che l’A. scrisse per commissione di Cristina regina di Svezia). Così Schlosser Magnino, p. 466: “E’ questa in realtà la prima storia universale dell’arte figurativa in Europa, scritta in uno stile impeccabile, sì da esser compresa fra i testi di lingua della Crusca.. Si comincia con l’avo leggendario Cimabue (1260) fino ad arrivare a Fra Mattio Preti, detto il Pittor Calabrese (1670).. Baldinucci ha riunito documenti e altri manoscritti in quantità rilevante, e anche se la sua critica è talvolta discutibile, con questo uso di relazioni autentiche egli si avvicina al tipo del moderno storico dell’arte”. Cfr. CLIO VII,5348 - Gamba,1759 cita le varie ediz. a partire dalla prima in 6 volumi del 1681-1728. Qualche lieve fiorit., ma complessivam. esemplare ben conservato.<br> "Il fiorentino Filippo Baldinucci (1624-96), letterato e scrittore di arte, fu consulente del Card. Leopoldo de’ Medici e ne ordinò la collezione di disegni, ora agli Uffizi. Scrisse una serie di biografie di artisti, compilò il Vocabolario Toscano dell’Arte del Disegno (1681) e a lui dobbiamo la migliore e più accurata biografia del Bernini. Fu anche incisore e collezionista di disegni (ora al Louvre)". Cfr. Diz. Treccani,II, p. 35.

Perfide
ill., br. Servono più cattive di qualità! Nella letteratura per ragazzi ci sono otto volte più cattivi maschi che femmine. E le femmine sono quasi sempre solo streghe. La storia insegna, però, che ci sono sempre state donne davvero perfide. Questa è una raccolta di ritratti e storie di donne realmente vissute che hanno agito male, facendo della perfidia la loro arma prediletta, adoperata per avere o mantenere il potere, per vendicarsi, per resistere a coercizioni, per ottenere giustizia o per rispondere a una passione irrefrenabile. Erodiade e Salomé, Tomoe Gozen, Alice Kyteler, Lucrezia Borgia, Anna Bolena, La Monaca di Monza, Maria la Sanguinaria, Erzsébet Bathory, Le piratesse dei Caraibi, La strega di Blair, Jill la Squartatrice, Mary Ann Cotton, Madame Popova, Bonnie Parker, Elisabeth Nietzsche, Ilse Koch, Christine Keeler, Elena Ceau?escu, Elsa Maxwell, Mamma Ebe sono le 20 perfide raccontate in questo libro.
