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.

1946rif. 99751946. United States Department of State. The International Control of Atomic Energy: Scientific Information Transmitted to the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission June 14 1946 - October 14 1946 1946 constitutes one of the earliest formal U.S. government submissions to the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission outlining proposed mechanisms to regulate nuclear weapons following the atomic bombings of Japan. Issued in the immediate aftermath of World War II and within one year of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima the report presents a technical and policy framework focused on controlling fissile materials as the primary safeguard against proliferation. This copy bears a direct inscription by Theodore Van Kirk navigator of the Enola Gay on August 6 1945 linking the theoretical policy proposals of international governance with firsthand participation in the first operational use of atomic weapons. Van Kirk underscores a central conclusion of the report by writing: "As stated on p. 164 The best control measure for the prevention of atomic bomb manufacture are those intended to prevent the accumulation of the essential fissionable materials" followed by his identification: "Theodore Van Kirk - Navigator - Enola Gay 6 Aug. 1945." United States Department of State. The International Control of Atomic Energy: Scientific Information Transmitted to the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission June 14 1946 - October 14 1946. Washington D.C.: Department of State 1946. Softcover volume measuring approximately 6 x 9 inches 195 pages. The work compiles scientific data policy recommendations and diplomatic proposals submitted to the United Nations concerning the international management of atomic energy and the prevention of nuclear weapons development. The inscription appears on the title page in Van Kirk's hand directly referencing a specific passage within the text and reinforcing its central argument regarding material control. Produced during the earliest phase of postwar nuclear diplomacy the report aligns with U.S. efforts to establish international oversight of atomic energy before the escalation of Cold War arms competition. The presence of Van Kirk's annotation situates the document within both policy formation and military execution bridging governmental attempts at regulation with the lived experience of atomic warfare. Light wear to covers with minor handling; internally clean; inscription clear and legible. Overall very good condition. unknown
1945rif. 114571945. Marx Joseph L. Seven Hours to Zero. 1967 account of the planning and execution of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima containing a signed annotation by Theodore J. "Dutch" Van Kirk navigator of the B 29 bomber Enola Gay. The book addresses the events leading to the United States' use of atomic weapons against Japan on August 6 1945 the mission that introduced nuclear warfare into modern military history and contributed directly to the end of the Second World War in the Pacific. Van Kirk one of the three principal crew members aboard the aircraft that delivered the uranium bomb over Hiroshima inscribed the title page with a critical assessment of the narrative: "A generally good account of our mission to drop the first atomic bomb over Hiroshima. There are a few historical discrepancies as memories fade after the fact. Theodore J 'Dutch' Van Kirk Navigator Enola Gay August 6 1945." The inscription provides a firsthand comment by a participant whose navigational calculations guided the aircraft to its target during the mission. Marx Joseph L. Seven Hours to Zero. New York: Putnam 1967. Signed commentary by Theodore J. "Dutch" Van Kirk on the title page. Hardback with dust jacket. The volume presents a narrative reconstruction of the hours leading to the Hiroshima bombing and the military planning undertaken by the United States Army Air Forces during the closing phase of the Pacific War. Van Kirk's handwritten note identifies his role as navigator of the Enola Gay and directly addresses the historical accuracy of the work. The Hiroshima mission represented a turning point in twentieth century military and political history demonstrating the destructive capacity of nuclear weapons and initiating the nuclear age that shaped Cold War international relations. Theodore J. "Dutch" Van Kirk served as navigator under pilot Paul W. Tibbets and bombardier Thomas Ferebee during the mission determining the flight path that brought the aircraft over Hiroshima on the morning of August 6 1945. Inscribed copies of historical works by individuals directly involved in the atomic bombing provide documentary testimony from participants whose recollections and interpretations continue to influence debates over nuclear warfare military decision making and the closing stages of the Second World War. Light handling wear to dust jacket and boards consistent with age. Overall condition very good. unknown
1945rif. 129771945. Hecht Selig. Explaining the Atom signed and inscribed by Theodore Van Kirk framing the atomic bombing of Hiroshima within a longer intellectual history of atomic theory and modern physics. As navigator of the Enola Gay during the August 6 1945 mission Van Kirk contributed directly to the operational execution of nuclear warfare and his inscription frames that event as the culmination of developments beginning with ancient atomism and extending through 20th-century scientific breakthroughs. By referencing figures such as Democritus and Einstein alongside the Manhattan Project the inscription integrates scientific theory with wartime application offering a condensed narrative linking philosophical origins of atomic thought to its realization in military technology. Hecht Selig. Explaining the Atom. New York: Viking Press 1947. 205 pages. Hardcover with dust jacket. Signed and extensively inscribed on the inside title page by Theodore Van Kirk. The inscription reads: "'Page 9; In 400 B.C. Deocritus theoryed the existence of atoms. In 1905 Einstein theorized E=MC squared. In 1943 Oppenheimer heads the Manhattan Project. In 1945 our 'Enola Gay' crew drops the atomic bomb on Hiroshima - Theodore 'Dutch' Van Kirk Navigator - Enola Gay August 6 1945." The text presents a chronological sequence of scientific and historical developments culminating in Van Kirk's own role in the Hiroshima mission. Published in the immediate postwar period Explaining the Atom aimed to make atomic science accessible to a broad audience at a time when nuclear technology had reshaped global politics and warfare. Van Kirk's inscription reflects how participants in the atomic mission interpreted their actions within a broader scientific and historical continuum linking abstract theory to its most consequential application. The juxtaposition of popular scientific exposition with firsthand annotation from a mission participant offers a layered artifact for the study of nuclear history scientific communication and the integration of intellectual and military developments in the mid-20th century. Dust jacket shows moderate wear; volume itself remains clean and well-preserved with strong legible inscription. Overall very good. unknown
