2002TULLIO PIRONTI 2002 681 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: SEGNI DEL TEMPO FRONTE RETRO IN COPERTINA, PER IL RESTO OTTIMO. Michel Zévaco (Ajaccio, 1º febbraio 1860, Eaubonne, 8 agosto 1918) è stato un romanziere, insegnante, giornalista, editore e attivista anarchico francese. Degno successore di Alexandre Dumas, Michel Zévaco, popolarissimo autore di feuilletons a cavallo tra Otto e Novecento, ci offre con Nostradamus, il primo romanzo del ciclo da lui dedicato alla figura del celebre autore delle profetiche Centurie. L'Autore dipinge il ritratto, cupo e sanguinoso, della Francia di Caterina de' Medici, delle guerre di religione, della caccia alle streghe. In un susseguirsi di duelli, agguati notturni, rapimenti, magie, evocazione di morti, prende corpo la trama della ventennale vendetta, con cui l'ormai anziano Nostradamus vuol punire coloro che gli hanno rovinato la giovinezza e sottratto Marie, la giovane sposa: re Enrico II di Valois, e i suoi infidi amici, Roncherolles e Saint-André. Recentemente ristampato in Francia dalla casa editrice Laffont, il romanzo ha riscosso un enorme successo. Soggetti: Romanzi storici, Fantasy, Letteratura francese, Ottocento, Classici, Eroi, Narrativa moderna e contemporanea (dopo il 1945), Streghe, Avventura, Magia, Previsioni, Futurologia, Futuro, Destino, Catastrofi, Racconti popolari, Intrighi, Duelli, Guasconate, Miguel de Zevaco, El hijo de Nostradamus, Gerfaut de Croixmart, Fran ois Ier, Romans populaires, écrivain français, Romanticismo, Cappa e spada, Cavalieri, Mantelli e spade, Pardaillan, Cape et d'épée, Suite romanesque, Cycle romanesque, Personnages romanesques, Cicli storici, Spagna, Francia, Filippo II, Roman-feuilleton, Le Matin, Fayard, Le Livre populaire, Romancier français du XXe siècle, Roman d'aventures, Affare Dreyfus, Romanzo d'appendice, Le Capitan, Borgia, Buridan, L'Héroïne, L'Hôtel Saint Pol, Parigi, Il Ponte dei sospiri, La marchesa di Pompadour, XX secolo, Ignazio di Loyola, Gesuiti, Carlo V, Caterina, Brabante, Enrico II, Re, Famiglie reali, Guerre, Battaglie, Corti, Regina, Cloak and dagger novels, Intrigue, Secrecy, Espionage, Mystery, Alexandre Dumas, Libri Vintage, Fuori catalogo, Magie, Morti, Evocazioni, Spiriti, Roncherolles, Valois, Cinquecento, Saint-André, Rapimenti, Vendette, Michel de Nostredame, Astrologia, Profezie, Medici, Montpellier, Montgomery, Myrtha, Montecuculi, Delfino, Marie, Chiaroveggenza, A posteriori, Beaurevers, Bouracan, Brabant, Trinquemaille, Renaud, Historical Novels, French Literature, Nineteenth Century, Classics, Heroes, Modern and Contemporary Fiction (after 1945), Witches, Adventure, Magic, Predictions, Futurology, Future, Destiny, Catastrophes, Popular Tales, Intrigues, Duels, Guasconades, Romance, Hood and sword, Knights, Cloaks and swords, Historical cycles, Spain, France, Philip II, Appendix novel, Paris, The Bridge of Sighs, The Marquise of Pompadour, 20th century, Ignatius of Loyola, Jesuits, Charles V, Catherine, Brabant, Henry II, Kings, Royal families, Wars, Battles, Courts, Queen, Books Out of print, Spells, Deaths, Evocations, Spirits, Saint-André, Abductions, Revenge, Astrology, Prophecies, Clairvoyance, Guaritori, Matrimonio, Caccia, Dame, Patibolo, Tornei, Figlio, Esecuzioni, Healers, Marriage, Hunting, Dames, Gallows, Tournaments, Son, Executions

1921réf. 56000Rome: La Vita Italiana 1921. First Italian edition. Softcover. g- to g. Octavo. 190 1pp. Tan paper wrappers with text in black and red on covers and spine. Translator not credited. The first Italian edition of the infamous and influential anti-Semitic forgery is quite scarce and is the only edition to have been published prior to the Fascist takeover of the country which occurred the following year. The book includes the full text of the Protocols and introductory comments as well as an extensive 60-page appendix at the rear prepared by publisher Giovanni Preziosi. Initial text at the front of the publication also includes Italian translations of the preface from the original 1920 London edition and the original introductory text from the 1905 Russian edition. It is interesting to note that even this early in the publication history of the Protocols editors were already admitting to the questionable authenticity of the text that they were so rabidly promoting as can be seen in the introductory comments here. The publication was issued by the right-wing political journal La Vita Italiana which was headed by prominent Italian anti-Semitic and nationalist writer Giovanni Preziosi 1881-1945 who would go on to become a prominent figure in Italian Fascist publishing. Wrappers with light staining and sunning. Spine with closed tears and rubbing to the head and tail.
