Staude Terzani Angela a Cura Di
Diverso da tutti e da Nessuno
8vo, br. ed. pp.258 . Mentre non accennano a sbiadire, nella memoria di chi lo ha amato, le immagini di Tiziano Terzani vestito di bianco che parla della pace, della vita e della morte, più lontana si fa nel tempo la sua figura di reporter, di grande protagonista di una stagione irripetibile del giornalismo. Questo libro ce la riporta davanti agli occhi con magnifica evidenza, quella figura, con la sua vitalità dirompente, il suo rigore professionale, la sua curiosità fenomenale, la sua travolgente risata. Ognuno degli amici e dei colleghi che da tutto il mondo hanno risposto generosamente allinvito di Angela Terzani contribuisce qui con un flash, con un ricordo più meditato, con qualche prezioso documento, anche inedito a comporre il ritratto irresistibile di un instancabile cacciatore di storie e di verità. E sono sufficienti soltanto alcuni dei titoli delle testimonianze raccolte in questo volume per capire latmosfera che vi si respira: Monsieur Moustache, Viaggiare per il mondo alla ricerca della verità, Da dove arriva, questo?, Partito senza lasciare indirizzo, Il gigante, Con i piedi più che mai piantati nella vita, Lapprovato dal cielo Completa il volume una ricca sezione di «documenti», con alcune lettere, uno scritto di Saskia Terzani e il Dialogo con il Vecchio di Folco Terzani, dedicato alla mitica figura che Terzani raccontò in Un altro giro di giostra. Testimonianze e ricordi di: Abbas, Mara Amorevoli Elizabeth Becker, Giovanna Botteri Salomon Bouman, Philip Bowring Paolo Breccia, Nayan Chanda Umberto Chapperon, Furio Colombo Charles-Antoine de Nerciat Siegmund Ginzberg, Pham Lan Huong Henry Kamm, Peter R.

STEIN, Aurel.
Innermost Asia: Its Geography as a Factor in History. [First Asia Lecture]
56 pages, in two complete issues. Plus numerous photographic plates, one of which is a panoramic view and two large fold-out color maps, measuring approximately 9 x 18.5 inches (23 x 47cm) and 8 x 9 inches (20 x 23cm). Published in two separate consecutive monthly issues of the Geographical Journal. Original condition with blue wrappers, titles to front, and containing all the ads. Two complete issues, seldom found in such good and original condition. Aurel Stein's first lecture at the Royal Geographica Society and covers his travels in Chinese Turkestan. Pre-dating Aurel Stein's book, "Innermost Asia", published in 1928. A highly invaluable expedition account, profusely illustrated with spectacular photographic plates and accompanied by 2 large fold-out colour maps, containing Stein's elucidation of ancient routes, remarkable excavations, and prehistoric civilizations. Features Loulan, Tunhwang, Mastuj, Lovaza, the former delta of Quruq Darya, the Mingshui Wells and dried up Lop Sea, etc. Stein's explorations extended from Central Asia, Kansu and Eastern Iran, carried out under the orders of H.M. Government. Stein's captivating personal reveal of archaeological and geographical explorations carried out, and most significant discoveries made in the remotest parts of Asia. "Innermost Asia" is the detailed scientific report of the author's Central Asian expedition to Chinese Turkestan, tracing the ancient route across the Lop desert undertaken during the years 1913-16. This took him to Kashgar, Khotan, the Pamirs, Samarkand, before finally turning south through eastern Persia to Baluchistan. In addition to visiting old sites, he made several new excavations in the region of Turfan. At the Caves of the Thousand Buddhas he extracted more manuscripts and on his return through Persia discovered Buddhist remains at Sistan in south-east Persia. At the end of this expedition Stein's reputation as the authority on the archaeology of the Silk Road was unchallenged. As with his other great expeditions it was to be several years before the publication of the official report but when it arrived it was a great success, most copies having been sold prior to publication.
