Bruschi Claudio
Ancona nella grande guerra
ill., br. Fra circa due anni l'Italia celebrerà il 100° anniversario del conflitto che portò al completamento dell'Unità nazionale. Durante questa guerra, Ancona fu protagonista di episodi significativi che meritano di essere degnamente ricordati. Il bombardamento del 24 maggio 1915, le gesta dei Mas, dei sommergibili e degli idrovolanti di base nel porto dorico, così come l'incursione di un comando austriaco in città sono vicende importanti che il presente volume vuole portare a conoscenza degli anconetani. Che cosa accadde ad Ancona per oltre tre lunghi anni? Quali furono i protagonisti e gli eroi di quel periodo? Come si viveva in città? A queste domande si è cercato di rispondere e si spera di esserci riusciti, almeno in parte.

Bruschi Giordano; Morabito Beppe
Il fazzoletto rosso di Bisagno. 26 storie garibaldine. Nuova ediz.
br. Il 18 maggio 1945 Maria Vitiello, moglie e compagna di GB Canepa, partigiano "Marzo", si trova seriamente ammalata in una cameretta della clinica Montallegro. Aldo Gastaldi "Bisagno" voleva bene a Maria e a "Marzo". Avevano vissuto insieme 20 mesi di guerra partigiana. Maria era stata partigiana vera dal settembre 1943 all'aprile 1945: cuoca, infermiera, compagna dei combattenti a Cichero, a Favale, a Fontanigorda. Quel giorno, poco prima del suo ultimo viaggio nel Trentino, "Bisagno" volle andare da lei e le regalò il suo fazzoletto rosso su cui aveva scritto personalmente il nome di 26 caduti della Divisione Garibaldi "Cichero". Maria conservò gelosamente quella testimonianza unica della Resistenza in Liguria. Giordano Bruschi e Beppe Morabito in occasione del centenario di "Bisagno", ricostruiscono quelle 26 biografie garibaldine. Introduzione di Luca Borzani.

Bruti Liberati Luigi
Hollywood contro Hitler
br. La versione di Hollywood della "guerra giusta" è ormai divenuta un evento storico custodito nella memoria collettiva del pubblico americano e del mondo intero. Ma come si giunse a questo risultato? La vittoria americana del 1945 fu resa possibile dall'uso di molteplici strumenti comunicativi. Tutti messi in campo per convincere che era giusto combattere il nazismo. Hollywood, come macchina da guerra, ebbe un ruolo straordinario per la capacità di diffondere il messaggio e di coniugare intrattenimento e impegno. Questo libro prende in esame alcuni dei più importanti film prodotti negli Stati Uniti durante la guerra. E racconta nei dettagli la storia di alcune memorabili produzioni cinematografiche degli anni cinquanta, nate da altrettanto memorabili produzioni letterarie a opera di veterani della "guerra giusta".

Bruttmann Tal; Tarricone Christophe
Le 100 parole della Shoah
br. La Shoah occupa un posto centrale nella memoria comune. C'è però un abisso fra come la studiano gli storici e come ne parla il grande pubblico. Per questo Tal Bruttmann e Christophe Tarricone si propongono di definire con il più grande rigore scientifico termini e nozioni che, sotto vari aspetti, sono "fuorvianti". Chi sa per esempio che, da diversi decenni, gli storici utilizzano l'espressione "centro di messa a morte" piuttosto che "campo di sterminio"? "Shoah" e "Olocausto" sono strettamente dei sinonimi? Che cosa implica realmente il concetto di Lebensraum (spazio vitale)? Facendo il punto sul vocabolario, ma anche sui protagonisti, i luoghi e le fonti, queste 100 parole tentano di approfondire una realtà che nessuna parola può esprimere.
