2020I Regni d'Italia e di Prussia, nel decennio compreso tra l'unificazione italiana nel 1861 e la nascita del secondo Reich germanico nel 1871, assunsero un ruolo di particolare rilevanza nella storia dell'Europa nell'Ottocento. La presente monografia, incentrata sull'analisi delle relazioni tra i due Paesi nel periodo considerato, affronta le rispettive scelte di politica estera, i momenti di convergenza o divergenza riguardo ai principali eventi dell'epoca, presi in esame nel contesto dei rapporti bilaterali tra Torino (poi Firenze, infine Roma) e Berlino. Inoltre, lo studio si sofferma anche su quegli aspetti dei rapporti italo-prussiani sinora meno approfonditi, in relazione alla generale situazione internazionale del tempo. Emergono, infine, in queste pagine, l'azione e la personalità di statisti e i diplomatici quali Otto von Bismarck, Karl Hermann von Thile, Harry von ArnimSuchow, Emilio Visconti Venosta, Edoardo de Launay e Giulio Camillo di Barral de Monteauvrard. Autori: Massimiliano Valente.

2021brossura Dalle gesta di Enrico il Leone, attraverso l'epopea dell'Ordine dei cavalieri teutonici, per passare al dispotismo illuminato di Federico il Grande e alla dirompente personalità di Bismark, fino agli artefici della Rivoluzione conservatrice, l'autore ricostruisce e racconta con rigore storico e trame narrative, quel filo rosso che collega la Prussia con i valori tipici della tradizione solare e marziale dell'antica Roma. "Educazione Prussiana" mette in evidenza, con un linguaggio chiaro ed una trattazione del tema originale, il carattere del popolo prussiano che per molto tempo ha rappresentato l'epicentro dell'identità germanica.

Baron Trenck, Imprisoned in 1745, at Glatz under the guard of Heinrich August de la Motte Fouque. The King ordered that Friedrich had to sit on his own gravestone. In 1746 Trenck escaped. Then, in 1749, he obtained an employment as Rittmeister of an imperial cuirassier regiment in Hungary. He traveled to Russia where he, or so he claimed, became gentleman of the bed chamber in the court of Tsarina Elizabeth of Russia. He fell in love with a married woman, whose name he never revealed. In 1753, he went to Danzig for the funeral of his mother, but was again captured on the orders of Frederick II and was sent to the Citadel Magdeburg. To prevent him from attempting to escape, they fastened his hands, feet, and body with heavy chains and manacles. In 1763, he was released through the intervention of Empress Maria Theresa. During the next ten years he led an active life - writing literature, running a wine trading business, and travelling to England and France. His autobiography (1787) was first translated into English by Thomas Holcroft, an officer of the Royal Artillery. It became popular reading in the late 18th century, and must have been thrilling for its early Amish owner. Evans 27814. EVANS1
