100 idee che hanno rivoluzionato lo street style. Ediz. illustrata
ill., br. "100 idee che hanno rivoluzionato lo street style" è una disamina look-by-look delle idee chiave che hanno cambiato il modo in cui ci vestiamo, dalla metà del XX secolo a oggi. Nelle sue pagine vengono illustrati gli stili di abbigliamento più iconici, il modo in cui venivano indossati, da cosa sono nati, il loro background culturale, come sono stati accolti e come continuano a influenzare la moda ancora oggi. Il guardaroba moderno deve la sua evoluzione non solo agli stilisti parigini o milanesi ma anche a gang e movimenti accomunati dall'amore condiviso per la musica, lo sport o una certa cultura underground, e in ogni caso da un certo stile che definisce l'appartenenza al gruppo. Questi stili hanno fatto tremare l'establishment, creato stereotipi e promosso la divisione sociale tanto quanto hanno unito le persone, sono entrati nel linguaggio comune, si sono diffusi in tutto il mondo e, soprattutto, hanno trasformato il modo di vestire di un pubblico sconfinato.

Streetwear di tendenza. Ediz. illustrata
ill., ril. La street culture è ormai un fenomeno globale, così come il modo di vestire che la caratterizza. Nati dall'abbigliamento da lavoro americano, i principali marchi streetwear hanno incontrato lungo la strada le subculture della West Coast, gli sport estremi e i migliori artisti grafici, fino a estendere la loro influenza ben oltre l'ambito della moda, stabilendo un contatto con i mondi dell'arte, della pubblicità, della musica e del design ed entrando così in competizione con brand e stilisti economicamente molto più potenti. Questo libro presenta 32 marchi streetwear di culto, ignorando gli innumerevoli tentativi di imitazione e concentrandosi sugli entusiasmanti pionieri che a partire dai tardi anni '80 hanno influenzato questo mercato nel modo più profondo e duraturo. "Streetwear di tendenza" racconta anche le storie degli uomini che stanno dietro ogni marchio: imprenditori, graffitisti, DJ, surfer e fanatici delle sneaker, in un viaggio che porterà il lettore da Los Angeles a New York, da Londra a Tokyo. Addict, Adidas, Abathing Ape, Ben Davis, Billionaire Boys Club Burton, Carhartt, Converse, Dickies, Evisu, Fred Perry, Fuct Goodenough, Lacoste, Maharishi, Mambo, Mecca, Mooks Neighborhood, Nike, Obey, One True Saxon, Puma, redWing Spiewak, Stussy, The Hunderds, Timberland, Triple 5 Soul, Vans, X-Large, ZooYork.

Uomini di stile. Ediz. illustrata
ill., br. Seguire una moda è facile, ma vestire un proprio stile personale richiede la capacità di apprezzare forme, colori, trame e composizioni; in altre parole, presuppone una sorta di sguardo artistico. Vestirsi con carisma non coincide necessariamente con lo scegliere un look radicale, ma senz'altro implica un gioco consapevole e divertito con dettagli e accessori. Gianni Agnelli, per esempio, amava indossare l'orologio sopra il polsino della camicia e questa sua unicità l'ha reso nel tempo un'icona di stile. Quando si parla di stile si intende proprio questo: una qualità esclusiva e originale che rivela un'autentica cifra personale, un'identità carismatica. Come ci insegna Cary Grant, infatti, avere stile non significa solo indossare degli abiti, ma vestire con sicurezza la propria personalità e portare con consapevolezza e disinvoltura ciò che rispecchia il proprio modo di muoversi nel mondo. Un vestito, quindi, non è necessariamente ciò che si mette, ma la personalità che si veste, ed è proprio questo libro a raccontarcelo attraverso la storia di celebri attori, pittori, scrittori, musicisti e politici del ventesimo e ventunesimo secolo che nel tempo sono diventati la quintessenza dello stile. La storia di questo concetto viene raccontata attraverso le icone maschili che lo hanno incarnato e che negli anni sono diventate esempi ispiratori. Personaggi come Miles Davis, Pablo Picasso, Winston Churchill, Jack Kerouac, Oscar Wilde e molti altri vengono descritti nelle loro uniche particolarità e raccontati per ciò che li ha resi conclamati eroi di stile.

Schlemihl: Blatt für Humor im Kriegsgefangenenlager 307. Blatt No. 4
Fanara Egypt: Der Tribüne 1947. First edition. Softcover. g to g. Folio. Unpaginated. 11 leaves. Original illustrated wrappers. This rare issue of "Schlemil" a German POW Camp Newspaper provides a first-hand account of the feelings and emotions of the men as well as their day-to-day activities during their internment in Fanara Egypt. This issue the fourth was the first published in 1947 issues 1-3 were published in 1946. The last issue No. 8 was also also published in 1947 shortly before the prisoners were shipped home 1947 through 1948. Of all the German POW camps camp 307 had the highest rate of German mortality. The reason can primarily be found in the harsh climatic conditions. Indeed unlike to the soldiers of the Africa corps who were fit for the tropics the soldiers who were taken prisoners in Italy Greece and its islands had many difficulties with the climate in Egypt. Hot wind and sandstorms in spring great heat in summer and severe cold in the winter impaired life in the strange climate. This led to the well known "Declaration of the captured Lutheran Pastors in Egypt". The front cover of this copy of "Schlemihl" features a drawing depicting a German POW painting a newlywed couple with the year 1947 at the upper left corner. The illustrator must have expressed to see his wish come true being freed and shipped home and marry his sweetheart. The newspaper contains poetry and short stories with a strong anti-Nazi stance. There are 5 other illustrations throughout the whole issue. Each leaf is printed on recto only. Some age-toning and creasing to wrappers with tiny chipping and closed tear at upper front and back cover. Upper corner slightly creased throughout. Text in German. Wrappers in overall good interior in good condition. Declaration of the captured Lutheran Pastors in Egypt:<br /> <br /> The captured Lutheran Pastors in Egypt moved by the emotional situation of their fellow prisoners in the Middle East which has become extraordinarily critical and in obedience to their sworn duties of office would like to make the following declaration before the British authorities before the German public before their fellow prisoners and also before the Christians of the world.<br /> <br /> For at least the last two and a half years and for the most part substantially longer periods German Prisoners of War have been held in the Middle East whose number at this time amounts to more than 60 000. They have been put to work in a climate which for half the year is positively unbearable for a European. Through the long duration of imprisonment through the separation from their relatives through the bad news from home through the impossibility of effectively helping them their relatives and for many the “C†people through the completely immeasurable continuance of their imprisonment the emotional burden of these prisoners has reached a degree which gives grounds for the gravest fears for the future.<br /> <br /> The symptoms which are already manifesting themselves are shocking enough: the incidences where prisoners break down emotionally so completely that they become mentally ill are increasing. Alone in one Work Company 2719 of 5000 men no fewer than six prisoners have been admitted to the appropriate department of the British military hospital because of mental illness. Above all the cases are increasing where prisoners are ending their own lives which appear unbearable to them. In the last month in just one of the three British Military Districts in Egypt five cases of suicide are known to us.<br /> <br /> This is because the majority of Prisoners of War in the Middle East have come to a total collapse of trust in the promises and declarations of the British custodial powers. The emotional strain which has arisen from this among the Prisoners of War is extreme. The most important reasons to name only these few which have led to this crisis are the following:<br /> <br /> 1. At the end of last year more than eighteen months after the capitulation the Prisoners of War were advised of the Repatriation Plan as it was to be binding for the year 1947. This Repatriation Plan gave the individual the opportunity to envisage within an admittedly broad framework according to his score and his political classification his return home. This plan has not been carried out.<br /> <br /> On 30 September 1947 the British Government announced that it would be necessary for it to reduce the repatriation to a fraction of the planned quota because of shortages of ships. Can one think ill of Prisoners of War that they held the following declaration which had been printed in the papers for some time against the British Prime Minister Attlee: that the work of the Prisoners of War at this time was the only available reparation from Germany and could not be done without Or that they received the impression from the speech to the Lower House on March 27 of the Member of Parliament for Ipswich Mr. R.R. Stokes that the reason for the sluggish pace of the repatriation from the Middle East is that the local British authorities held the manpower of the Prisoners of War to be so indispensable that they would simply have to wait for repatriation Can one think ill of the German Prisoners of War who due to previous experience are already full of mistrust today take into consideration that the almost complete halt to repatriation will not just last until the end of the year but that probably the closing date for repatriation the end of 1948 won’t be adhered to<br /> <br /> With great and honest thankfulness the Prisoners of War of the Middle East have experienced the intervention for the easing of the lot of the captured and their speedier return home by men of the British public above all from a great number of Bishops the Member of Parliament Stokes a man such as Viktor Gollancz and finally a group of more than sixty Lower House members. In the Middle East hardly any of this has come about and the result is growing bitterness and hopelessness instability and despair amongst the Prisoners of War. <br /> <br /> 2. A further and exceedingly grave burden for the morale and emotional bearing of the Prisoners of War lies in the recently released regulation that in future Prisoners of War will only be allowed to take in the vicinity of ten pounds of approved luggage to Germany. Germany faces another winter of starvation. Thousands of Prisoners of War have saved their hard earned tiny wages for months and years and have allowed themselves nothing in order to be able to bring a few tins of fat which is lacking most and other foodstuffs to their relatives. Many came to terms with the repeated deferment of their repatriation and found themselves a new mainstay by telling themselves: I can help my relatives to at least a small extent by sending along foodstuffs especially fat with returning comrades.<br /> <br /> Because of the new announcement all this is brought to nought. It has aroused bitterness particularly because it is so completely incomprehensible. The foodstuffs in question are in the markets in Egypt and can be obtained in the camp canteens in great quantities to be used by the Prisoners of War at will. Why should they not be able to save these and take them home No one is hurt by this and the money which is spent stays in the country. <br /> <br /> Finally particularly destructive and embittering is the thought that contrary to the natural development of things where the treatment of Prisoners of war should be gentler and better with the growing interval since the end of the war it is only becoming sharper and more severe. The Prisoners of War can absolutely not understand that they who have actually already have been discriminated against through their late return home are further discriminated against in the hardest and most burdensome way by the aforementioned announcement while the comrades who were lucky enough to return home earlier could take such foodstuffs so vitally necessary for a starving Germany freely and without limits.<br /> <br /> 3. A further hardship and exceedingly heavy emotional burden is the treatment of the Prisoners of War who have placed under “Automatical Arrest†A.A. namely those whose identity is suspected to be that of a wanted war criminal or those who are needed as witnesses in such a case. They are held in custody here indefinitely often being unable to discover why and without sentence. Despite the fact that the British authorities have had at least two years and often considerably longer at their disposal to prove identities and make investigations in countless cases the affected Prisoners of War are put under “A.A.†only hours before their repatriation. In two cases men were even fetched down from the repatriation ship a procedure which it is hardly too harsh to characterise with the expression “emotional abuseâ€. <br /> <br /> Apart from all rules about humanity this kind of procedure also contradicts all accepted laws in the Allied countries in that Prisoners of War are punished for being war criminals when they haven’t been convicted. Indefinite imprisonment for a Prisoner of War who has waited for repatriation according to a classification and score is nothing other than punishment.<br /> <br /> An example: A Prisoner of War rank Oberfeldwebel Staff Sergeant was placed under “A.A.†in December 1945 without being given any notice because he was mistaken for his brother a Leutnant Second Lieutenant who had died in the war. His assertions were not believed. He pointed out that a comrade of his dead brother could be found in the same camp and could be interrogated about this. This was refused. Only after the intervention of a Lower House member Mr. Stokes who was approached about it was the case taken up. The interrogation of the commandant was carried out and the affected person released although subject to the agreement of a superior central office. He has still not been repatriated to this day despite being scheduled for repatriation by British doctors since April because of severe asthma. That is one of several dozen cases.<br /> <br /> It is understandable that the feeling of complete absence of rights emotionally oppresses particularly these Prisoners of War and brings them to despair. <br /> <br /> 4. The Prisoners of War gratefully acknowledge that the vast majority of commandants of camps and of work companies honestly strive to lighten their burden through good food through the improvement of canteens and recreation rooms through sporting events radio cinema theatre and musical performances and also through opportunities for further education. They have complete understanding for the fact that because of their special situation in Egypt their freedom of movement cannot be as extensive as in England itself.<br /> <br /> What they do not understand however is the severity of punishment with which often only a trifling offence is often only punished by mistake. In many cases the admissible maximum penalty – twenty-eight days’ detention - is lengthened. In most of the cases the severity of the punishment bears no relationship to the severity of the misdemeanour. An example: In recent times a Prisoner of War was punished with fourteen days’ detention and loss of Work Points ie the extension of his captivity by many months because he had accidentally and not on purpose had the command post flag of a passing British military car. Examples of this sort could be continued for a long time. The severity of such penalties have a particularly hard emotional effect on the Prisoners of War who are in the third to fifth year of their captivity none of them any longer in complete possession of their emotional resilience. They therefore experience these punishments as more severe than another person would. <br /> <br /> We captured Lutheran Pastors in Egypt have hitherto purposely kept silent before the public about the completely unnecessary cases of severity and the partly open injustice for example physical mistreatment of Prisoners of War in the Detention Centres. We have tried through personal calls at the responsible British departments to do away with these things in the belief that this was about the unauthorised actions of a subordinate authority such as they appear in every human community.<br /> <br /> We asked ourselves earnestly whether we could continue to keep silence in the present situation. In thinking this we considered that one had - and rightly so - reproached our Nation and our Lutheran Church with silence when we should have spoken out. In the Stuttgart Declaration of October 1945 the Lutheran Church did penitence for this failure before the whole world.<br /> <br /> From this in earnest self-examination we came to the opinion that in further silence toward the injustice that has happened and still does happen to the Prisoners of War in the Middle East we would be guilty before the office of spiritual care which is our command before our consciences before our Lutheran Church in Germany and our German People and not least before God the Lord in front of whose Judgment Seat we will all one day need to answer for ourselves. We would have to be silent if our opponents in the past war had told us that they wanted to fall upon us in the name of revenge and retaliation. Then we would only have been able to say to our fellow captives: See where unlawfulness and Godlessness lead; see how the dreadful law of retaliation makes itself felt! In that case we could only have bowed dumbly before the deserved justice of God.<br /> <br /> But our former opponents did not say this. Rather they ceremoniously proclaimed that in the names of justice and humanity and in the spirit of Christendom with their unchanging qualities they had gone into the war and brought it to an end. In this spirit they would lead our people in a new way.<br /> <br /> That however gives us the courage and the right; today it lays the holy duty upon us as spiritual carers for our fellow captive brothers with all the earnestness of our duty of care to beg their leading personages and their responsible authorities to no longer passively watch the injustice that has been and is still being done to the Prisoners of War in the Middle East but rather to remedy the great spiritual need and despair which daily continue to gain ground through practical effective and quick measures.<br /> <br /> We have the bitter and serious concern that otherwise our fellow captives in the Middle East will lose the ultimate and best thing that we in the spirit of Christ so dearly wanted to show them how many have already lost it!: the belief and trust that in this world not power not the spirit of vengeance and retribution not the justice of the strong have the last word; rather that co-existence in the spirit of right justice humanity reconciliation and brotherly helpfulness within nations and between nations is possible.<br /> <br /> In the name and by order of the captured Lutheran Pastors in Egypt.<br /> <br /> Signed Norbert Rückert<br /> <br /> Dean of Pastors for the Middle East<br /> <br /> P.W. Camp 380<br /> <br /> 11 October 1947. Der Tribüne unknown

Designing civic consciousness. ABC per la ricostruzione della coscienza civile
br. Di fronte al declino della coscienza civile - intesa come consapevolezza dei diritti e dei doveri - i tradizionali strumenti di analisi risultano in affanno. Un problema di questa complessità può essere affrontato solo in maniera innovativa e facendo ricorso a tutti gli strumenti interpretativi e progettuali che discipline diverse possono apportare. Designing Civic Consciousness riunisce dunque interventi di filosofi, storici e designer accomunati dalla volontà di portare un contributo alla definizione di pratiche di "educazione civica" attraverso gli strumenti della riflessione e del progetto.

Sir Edmund Beckett Denison [afterwards Edmund Beckett, Lord Grimthorpe] (1816-1905), lawyer, architect and horologist who design
The horologist who designed the Big Ben clock: Sir Edmund Beckett Denison latterly Lord Grimthorpe. Three Autograph Letters Signed to Edward Hayes Plumptre regarding the business of Westminster girls’ school Queen’s College.
ONE: 14 January 1856; Queen’s College. TWO: ‘Valentines Day’ 14 February 1870; 33 Queen Anne Street W. London THREE: 3 April 1870; Doncaster. The third of these letters in particular gives a good indication of his Yorkshire bluntness his entry in the Oxford DNB describes him as ‘a man of arrogance and bile . capable of generosity strong friendships and kindness towards people in need of help’. The three items are in good condition lightly aged; the third with slight wear along one edge. All three are signed ‘E B Denison’ and the second and third are addressed to ‘My dear Plumptre’. ONE 14 January 1856: 3pp 4to. This letter concerns Queen’s College the girls’ school founded in 1848 by Denison’s relation Frederick Denison Maurice of which Plumptre would be Head 1875-1879. Subscribed ‘Chairman of the meeting of the Council this day’ and addressed ‘To the Chairman of the Committee of Education’. Begins: ‘Mr Nicolay is anxious that the Committee of Education should be informed of the opinion of the Council respecting the taking of Boarders in the new house No 68 Harley St.’. He reports the resolutions of the council who ‘think that the matter is now so far advanced that we may ask the Committee to come to a decision on the subject of taking boarders . We beg also to suggest that it is desirable that the meeting or meetings on this subject should be attended by as many of the Professors as possible as it is a matter seriously affecting their pecuniary interests’. TWO ‘Valentines day’ 1870: 2pp 16mo. ‘By this time you have possibly got my letter of yesterday which I took to the College expecting to see you & not observing that it was dated on Monday.’ After a brief discussion of College business he gives this in a postscript: ‘Crassweller came this morning wanted us to guarantee him in an action which a livery stable man is bringing against him for what he calls a nuisance in carrying off the rubbish through the Mews which Spooner referred to in his letter to you. Of course I did no such thing. It may or may not turn out that we shall have to do nothing but Crassweller will settle very differently for himself & yours.’ THREE 3 April 1870: 2pp 12mo. ‘Spooner’s account’ of Crassweller is ‘not very satisfactory’ but he has signed the cheque to him. ‘I have told Bailey that his continued employment is a disgrace to the Portland Estate after all that Bailey knows of him - & the Duke i.e. the Duke of Portland extensive London landowner too - By allmeans sic try the Duke again if you think it will do any good. I have a strong persuasion that in spite of Spooner we ought to have tried to get the building condemned by the M. Board & made it a landlord’s job’. He continues: ‘I have never heard of a 60 year marriage continuans before my father & mother’s. I shall not be in London on Wednesday for more than sleeping at any rate especially as our kitchen boiler is bust.’ Postscript refers to ‘Bickley liberality towards Q. C.’ and Lady Stanley. ONE: 14 January 1856; Queen’s College. TWO: ‘Valentines Day’ [14 February] 1870; 33 Queen Anne Street W. [London] THREE: 3 unknown

Sir Patrick Abercrombie [ Sir Leslie Patrick Abercrombie ] (1879-1957), town planner and architect [ Department of Civic Design,
Sir Patrick Abercrombie town planner. Six Typed Letters Signed and one Autograph Letter Signed to W. Perry and G. K. Menzies of the Royal Society of Arts concerning various talks given by him there.
Autograph letter on letterhead of 18 Village Road Oxton Birkenhead; five on letterheads of Department of Civic Design School of Architecture University of Liverpool; one on his Abercrombie Square letterhead. 1930 3 1931 2 and 1934 2. Each letter 1p. 4to. The collection in fair condition on aged and worn paper. Two items with the Society's stamp. The first three items from 1930 relate to the appointment of a chairman for a 'meeting in March' by Abercrombie at the Society. On 28 November he suggests the Bishop of Chichester 'who as Dean of Canterbury worked in very close co-operation with me or Lady Milner'. He next 11 December suggests 'Lord Cornwallis of the Kent County Council who is also a member of the East Kent Committee'. He is pleased 16 December when Cornwallis agrees writing: 'He has taken a great interest in the work in Kent from its very beginning and it is of the more importance to have him as he represents the wider outlook of the whole county of Kent.' Two letters from 1931 relate to another talk and the typescript of a paper from it to be printed in the Society's journal. On 16 March Anbercrombie enquires: 'I have been asked by a friend who is coming whether it is usual to wear full evening dress on these occasions. My own idea is that that would be desirable for the lecturer but dinner jacket and black tie would be quite suitable for the audience.' On 1 March 1934 he asks to 'see someone and select slides both from the West Wycombe and the late Sir Frank Baines' collection' anticipating that he will 'get something extremely useful for my lecture'. For information on Anbercrombie see his entry in the Oxford DNB. Autograph letter on letterhead of 18 Village Road, Oxton, Birkenhead; five on letterheads of Department of Civic Design, School unknown

Sisi, autori vari
L'Ottocento in Italia - Le arti sorelle - Il Neoclassicismo 1789 1815
1 lingua: italiano Legat. edit. in tela rigida con sovracop. illustrata e cofanetto editoriale rigido illustrato, cm 29x26, pag. 346, con 367 illustraz. a colori e in b.n. - A cura di Carlo Sisi e altri - Il Neoclassicismo raccontato attraverso i rapporti di interconnessione tra le diverse arti figurative, e tra queste e la letteratura, il teatro, la decorazione e il costume. Il volume, primo della collana: 'L'Ottocento in Italia' si apre con l'introduzione di Carlo Sisi, che pone le basi del dibattito teorico sulle istituzioni e gli indirizzi dell'estetica neoclassica. Seguono quattro macrosezioni, dedicate ai generi della pittura, alla scultura, allo scenario architettonico e alle cosiddette 'arti sorelle': letteratura, teatro, decorazione e costume - Perfetto stato.

Sisi, autori vari
L'Ottocento in Italia - Le arti sorelle - Il Romanticismo 1815 1848
1 lingua: italiano Legat. edit. in tela rigida con sovracop. illustr. e custodia edit. illustrata, cm 26x28, pag. 368, con 382 illustraz. a col. e in b.n. - Indaga sulle arti figurative dell'Ottocento italiano evidenziando le connessioni con le arti 'sorelle' (arti decorative, moda e costume) - Lungi dall'essere celebrato e noto quanto quello francese, il patrimonio artistico dell'Italia dell'Ottocento attende ancora un giusto riconoscimento che ne riporti alla luce la straordinaria complessità e ricchezza; una preziosa occasione per poterne (ri)scoprire la qualità, è offerta da questo progetto a cura di Carlo Sisi, che ha, tra l'altro, il pregio di non limitarsi all'analisi di pittura, scultura e architettura, ma di ampliare il discorso alle arti decorative, alla letteratura, alla moda e al costume, offrendo uno sguardo profondo e puntuale sulla creatività artistica ottocentesca in tutte le sue forme. Questo approccio interdisciplinare - che costituisce uno dei tratti più originali e interessanti del progetto - intende sottolineare la stretta relazione che intercorre tra le diverse espressioni artistiche del XIX secolo. In un gioco di rimandi assai suggestivo, gioielli e complementi di arredo sfilano accanto alle loro immagini riprodotte in tele d'epoca; raffinate ceramiche dialogano con le loro sorelle dipinte; affascinanti progetti architettonici si rispecchiano negli edifici costruiti. Tra Canova e Alfieri, Appiani e il Bonaparte, Porta e Bossi, fasti napoleonici e emozioni da Grand Tour, algide forme idealizzate e primi afflati romantici, il volume restituisce l'epoca Neoclassica italiana in tutte le sue molteplici sfumature.

Sivewright, Sandy
One Man's Mission: 20,000 Ships
xiv, 257 pages. Index. Numerous quality black and white reproductions of archival photos. "Since 1924 Robert MacGregor had worked to perfect an acceptable design of steel hatch cover. In 1933 he entered into partnership with his brother Joseph and in November 1945 Henri Kummerman arrived on the Tyne for his first meeting with the MacGregors. Kummerman's extraordinary entrepreneurial talent was to be the catalyst that activated the now legendary success of the international MacGregor organisation. That these men came together to change the shape of ships is a matter of record. The driving energy and passion with which Henri Kummerman set about telling the world about the need for change are descriobed in the pages of this book, as is the story of this highly successful multinational business." - dust jacket. Gift greetings upon front endpaper otherwise book tight, square, clean, bright and unmarked with very light wear. Light wear to dust jacket now preserved in glossy new archival quality Brodart. A quality copy of this excellent history. Book
