1966SUGAR 1966 294 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: SEGNI DEL TEMPO ALLA COPERTINA, VOLUME INTONSO, MAI SFOGLIATO. SEBBENE NON INTEGRA, ANCORA PRESENTE LA FASCETTA PUBBLICITARIA EDITORIALE CHIUSA, COME DA FOTO Il bombardamento di Londra visto da Virginia Woolf, le prime bombe atomiche su Nagasaki e Hiroshima, le ultime parole di Stefan Zweig prima del suicidio, una lettera di Simone Weil a Maurice Schumann, l'8 settembre descritto da Giaime Pmtor, i rischiosissimi e avventurosi voli dl Samt-Exupéry in Africa, la "scoPerta" dei campi di sterminio da parte dei generali americani in Germania i diari di Kaj Munk e Julius Fucik assassinati dai nazisti, gli ultimi appunti musicali di Anton Webern ucciso "per sbaglio" nel 1945. Oltre a queste celebri testimonianze, altre raccolte in questo volume portano firme poco conosciute o sono addirittura anonime testimonianze individuali di combattenti e di borghesi, di intellettuali e di proletari ben diverse le une dalle altre, anche perché provengono da differenti paesi. Si fondono tuttavia insieme per ricostruire davanti ai nostri occhi, in una cronaca appassionata e intima, disperata e generosa, gli avvenimenti che vanno dal 1939 al 1945. Questi documenti fanno parte della storia e ci aiutano a capirla e a ricordarla, ad analizzarla e a esorcizzarla. Proprio su questa memoria della tragedia e su questo rifiuto dell atrocità è basata l'unica possibilità di pace.

1945réf. 221391945. Editor unknown. Atlanta Journal August 6 1945 records the first American newspaper cycle responding to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima a military and political event that introduced nuclear weapons into warfare and reshaped the final phase of World War II. The issue supports research into wartime journalism anti-Japanese racial language in the American press home-front reception of nuclear warfare and the public announcement of the atomic age; Hiroshima was bombed on August 6 1945 and President Truman's statement described the bomb as having "more power than 20000 tons of T.N.T." Atlanta Journal. Atlanta Georgia. August 6 1945. Final Home Edition. Number of pages and size not stated. Front-page headlines include "Atomic Power Bomb Loosed on Jap Cities" "Death Charge Equals 20000 Tons of TNT" and "Japs Fail to Scratch New Hornet in Terrific 14-month War Cruise." The headlines preserve the immediacy of American reporting on Hiroshima as well as the racialized wartime language used in mainstream newspapers during the Pacific War. General handling wear good overall. A same-day Southern newspaper issue documenting how the first use of atomic warfare entered American public consciousness through mass-circulation news. unknown
1945réf. 193451945. Van Kirk Theodore "Dutch." Signed poster reproducing the navigator's log of the August 6 1945 Enola Gay mission documents the flight that delivered the first atomic bomb used in warfare. Van Kirk served as navigator aboard the B-29 plotting the aircraft's course from North Field on Tinian to Hiroshima and back during a mission that initiated the wartime use of nuclear weapons and transformed military strategy international relations and public understanding of technological destruction. The National Museum of the United States Air Force records that the Enola Gay departed at 2:45 a.m. and released the uranium bomb known as "Little Boy" over Hiroshima later that morning. The poster provides a signed visual chronology for the study of World War II aviation operational navigation the Manhattan Project and the beginning of the nuclear age. Hiroshima Mission Navigator's Log of the Enola Gay. Issuer place and date of printing not identified. Poster reproducing three manuscript pages entirely in Van Kirk's hand; dimensions not supplied. The successive entries trace the mission from takeoff through navigation toward Japan the bombing run and the aircraft's return to base. The log records the 0245 departure the turn onto a 345-degree heading and the climb to 30800 feet with "BOMB AWAY" entered at 0915. These operational notations reduce the mission to headings altitudes times and navigational actions preserving the procedural language by which the crew recorded an event of extraordinary human consequence. Signed at the bottom "Theodore J. 'Dutch' Van Kirk Navigator-Enola Gay Hiroshima Aug. 6 1945." Because the three manuscript pages are photographically or mechanically reproduced the poster should not be described as Van Kirk's original wartime log; only the concluding inscription and signature are represented as original autograph material. The Enola Gay's release of "Little Boy" over Hiroshima marked the first use of a nuclear weapon in war; the bomb detonated approximately 1800 feet above the city. The reproduced entries offer an operational perspective distinct from later narrative accounts showing how the navigator organized the mission through timed observations and course calculations while leaving the destruction below largely outside the log's technical vocabulary. No creasing staining fading tears or edge losses are identified; reproduced manuscript images and Van Kirk's signed inscription remain clear near fine. Signed commemorative record joining the navigator's minute-by-minute flight chronology with direct identification by the last surviving member of the Enola Gay crew. unknown

1945réf. 125961945. World War IIAtomic Bomb Van Kirk Theodore J. "Dutch". Single blueprint copy inscribed and signed dated "6 Aug 1945." Single blueprint sheet. Annotated blueprint of "Little Boy" the uranium-235 atomic bomb detonated over Hiroshima on August 6 1945 inscribed and explained by Theodore Van Kirk navigator of the B-29 Enola Gay during the first wartime use of a nuclear weapon. Developed under the direction of the Manhattan Project the bomb marked a decisive technological and geopolitical rupture at the close of World War II inaugurating the nuclear age and reshaping global military doctrine. Approximately 70000 people were killed as a direct result of the blast with comparable numbers injured rendering the event one of the most consequential military actions of the twentieth century. Black-and-white blueprint copy approximately 18 x 24 inches illustrating the internal configuration of "Little Boy" employing the gun-type assembly method in which a sub-critical uranium-235 projectile was fired into a hollow uranium-235 target to achieve supercritical mass and initiate a nuclear chain reaction. Van Kirk has added detailed manuscript notations in pencil and ink identifying principal components including the "Neutron Source" "Steel Tamper" "Gunpowder" "Explosion Device" "Highly Sensitive Radio Antennae" "Uranium 235 'Bullet' Fired into Target to Create a Critical Mass" and "Uranium 235 Hollowed out Target." Along the margin in black ink he writes: "This is a blue print of our Hiroshima Atomic bomb 'Little Boy.' It was the only uranium bomb made. The bomb was designed as a gun type bomb with a bullet of U-235 fired into a U-235 target to create a critical mass." Signed below in blue ink: "Theodore J 'Dutch' Van Kirk Navigator - Enola Gay 6 Aug 1945." The design of "Little Boy" was finalized by early 1945 and reflected a conservative engineering approach intended to ensure detonation reliability despite the unprecedented nature of atomic warfare. As a navigational officer on the mission Van Kirk occupied a critical operational role in delivering the weapon to its target and his explanatory annotations reveal how participants later articulated the bomb's mechanics and singular status as the only uranium-based device used in combat. Minor edge wear and light handling marks; blueprint lines sharp and legible; manuscript annotations and signature clear and strong. Overall very good to near fine condition. unknown
