Volontario della libertà. Prigioniero in Germania, partigiano in Italia (1943-1945)

"Il mattino dell'8 settembre 1943, a noi, duecento reclute del 39 Rgt. Art. d'Armata, fu data la sveglia più presto del solito. Il programma era tutto nuovo. Si doveva andare in distaccamento a Bibbiano, distante poco più di 20 Km da Reggio Emilia, per fare qualche esercitazione un po' più militaresca, ma soprattutto per lasciare sgombra la piazza d'armi non so bene per quali altri arrivi". Iniziò così la tragedia di Enzo Furiozzi che con altri migliaia venne fatto prigioniero e portato in Germania con carri bestiame. Internato prima nel "Kriegsgefangenerlager II A", il campo di concentramento di Neubrandenburg con il numero 102028 e poi nello Stalag 269 a Wipperfhürt, a una trentina di chilometri a nord-ovest di Colonia, nel cuore della Renania, Furiozzi perse casualmente lo status di I.M.I. (Internato Militare Italiano). Fu così che fortunosamente ottenne la possibilità del rimpatrio come civile non più abile al lavoro e, una volta giunto in patria, entrò a far parte della Resistenza.
Montaigne in Motion

Author: Jean Starobinski
language: en
Publisher: University of Chicago Press
Release Date: 1985
Educated in the humanities and trained in psychiatry, Jean Starobinski is a central figure in the Geneva School of criticism. For twenty-five years his work has had considerable influence on postmodern European critics (notably Derrida), scholars of French literature, and intellectual historians. Montaigne in Motion is his subtly conceived and elegantly written study of the Essais of Montaigne, whose deceptively plainspoken meditations have entranced readers and stimulated philosophers since their first publication in 1580 and 1595. Starobinski here offers a decidedly postmodern reading of Montaigne. In chapters dealing with the themes of public and private life, friendship, death, the body, and love, Starobinski interprets Montaigne's writings as a constant "working through" that leads Montaigne from a situation of unreasoned dependence to a revolt affirming his independence and self-sufficiency, and finally toward an acceptance and mastery of necessary relations. Placing this ternary movement at the very heart of the Montaignian enterprise, Starobinski reveals much that will remind us that Montaigne's thought is as apropos to our time as it was to his own.
Sicilian Uncles

The expression 'Sicilian uncle' has the same sense in Italian as 'Dutch uncle' does in English, but with sinister overtones of betrayal and inconstancy. The four novellas in Sicilian Uncles, originally published in 1958, are political thrillers of a kind - the first fruits of Sciascia's maturity. In these stories, illusions about ideology and history are lost in mirth, suffering and abandoned innocence. Each novella has its historical moment: the Allied invasion of Sicily, the Spanish Civil War, the death of Stalin, the 'events' of 1848. These occasions and their consequences are registered in the lives of Sciascia's wonderfully drawn characters. Each has voice, wit and a private history which opens out onto the wider circumstances of his time.
