[Madonna del parto Monterchi] (17x24), pp. 168. I "depositi della memoria antropologica" ci parlano qui di quei valori, di quei "segni" delle antiche culture contadine, ecclissatisi con straordinaria velocità. L'immaginario e la realtà della cultura agropastorale, di tempi abbastanza vicini, sono già adesso i lontani racconti dell'uomo e della donna, della puerpera e del bifolco, della sterile e dell'affamato. L¿autore, con la collaborazione dell'Istituto Studi e Ricerche sulla Civiltà Appenninica di Sestino (Arezzo), ha qui raccolto pazientemente "liturgie", punti nodali, quadri di vita, atteggiamenti, rapporti sociali anche soprannaturali, caduti ormai nell'oblio, ma registrati dai più ansiani nell'archeologia della memoria. Superstizione e magia, non di rado intrecciate con la religione, fortemente radicate, riescono ancora a resistere anche se un po'sopite. Primaria la figura femminile. La sua fertilità e maternità erano la ricchezza di quel mondo. Le terre di Piero, quindi della "Madonna del Parto", simbolo di tutte le donne, segnate da acque salutari e lustrali, da pietre galattofore, da località sacralizzate erano pervase da una evidente cultura femminile. Lei, la donna, perpetuazione della vita, quindi "benedizione", "legame protettivo", "economia"

"Based on material collected by the World Committee for the Relief of the Victims of German Fascism." - subtitle. Madden describes this work as a "Marxist publication which concludes that the Nazis burned the Reichstag. An appendix claims to list 747 proven cases of murder committed by the Nazis. Above-average but not excessive wear and soiling to publisher's faded red cloth. Binding intact. The only markings begin at page 231 and continue to the end. Small handwritten fore-edge stickman images become moving pictures if you quickly flip through to the back of the book.

1944192 pages including index and an appendix listing contemporary personalities in Japan and Japanese-Occupied Asia. "The present study falls into two sections which are complementary. The first deals with machinery and methods and endeavours to give as full and detailed a survey as is possible of the various government organs directing and controlling political warfare, the structure of the Japanese press, the organisation of Japanese broadcasting, the functioning of censorship, and the extent to which education, science, literature, the arts and the cinema are being employed for purposes of propaganda, both in the Japanese homeland and in the wider area of the conquered empire... The second part deals... with the aims and policies of Japanese propaganda, and attempts to give an outline of the way in which the machinery, sketched in the first part, is being operated." - from introduction.

First published in its original form as Darwin's first monograph under the title "The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs Being the first part of the geology of the voyage of the Beagle under the command of Capt. Fitzroy R.N. during the years 1832 to 1836" The monograph set out Darwin's theory of the formation of coral reefs and atolls. He extensively revised and rewrote the book for its 1874 second edition to take into account James Dwight Dana's 1872 publication 'Corals and Coral Islands' and work by Joseph Jukes. This is the third edition with Darwin's prefaces to the first and second edition and a preface to this edition by his son Francis Darwin. It also includes an appendix by the geologist Thomas George Bonney on the study of coral reefs since 1874. "The Structure and Distribution of Coral Reefs" remains an important landmark in the science of coral reefs and is relatively uncommon. Includes references to North-West coast of Australia and the Great Barrier Reef 3rd edition. Half leather. D. Appleton hardcover
