8vo, herdcover in dj, 368 pages. During a 1931 trial of four Nazi stormtroopers, known as the Eden Dance Palace trial, Hans Litten grilled Hitler in a brilliant and merciless three-hour cross-examination, forcing him into multiple contradictions and evasions and finally reducing him to helpless and humiliating rage (the transcription of Hitlers full testimony is included. ) At the time, Hitler was still trying to prove his embrace of legal methods, and distancing himself from his stormtroopers. The courageous Litten revealed his true intentions, and in the process, posed a real threat to Nazi ambition. When the Nazis seized power two years after the trial, friends and family urged Litten to flee the country. He stayed and was sent to the concentration camps, where he worked on translations of medieval German poetry, shared the money and food he was sent by his wealthy family, and taught working-class inmates about art and literature. When Jewish prisoners at Dachau were locked in their barracks for weeks at a time, Litten kept them sane by reciting great works from memory. After five years of torture and hard labor-and a daring escape that failed-Litten gave up hope of survival. His story was ultimately tragic but, as Benjamin Hett writes in this gripping narrative, it is also redemptive. It is a story of human nobility in the face of barbarism. The first full-length biography of Litten, the book also explores the turbulent years of the Weimar Republic and the terror of Nazi rule in Germany after 1933

8vo, br ed. bandelle pp.xii-292. Poco prima di morire Gershom Scholem ampliò notevolemente il testo dei suoi ricordi di gioventù "Da Berlino a Gerusalemme". Mentre nella prima versione veniva descritto l'ambiente ebraico tedesco durante la Prima guerra mondiale, in questa edizione il centro della sua analisi si sposta maggiormente verso Gerusalemme, soprattutto con il progetto di una nuova vita culturale e sociale per lo Stato di Israele. È la storia di un itinerario intellettuale ricco di incontri con alcune figure chiave del periodo come Martin Buber, Franz Rosenzweig e Samuel Agnon che, nello stesso tempo, rivela il tentativo di definire una nuova identità ebraica, attraverso la difesa della lingua e le ricerche sulla mistica.
8vo, br. ed. 298pp. Nel 1928 Ludwig Lindner, un liberale protestante, viene nominato console della Repubblica di Germania a Genova e sposta in Liguria la sua famiglia, composta dalla moglie, Elisabeth Binswanger, di famiglia ebraica, e dai figli Lore e Wolfgang. Lore era la mamma dell'autrice di questo libro. Tra i due rami della famiglia – quello che resta in Germania e quello trapiantato in Italia – intercorre un fitto carteggio: centinaia di lettere scritte con cadenza regolare dalla nonna Lina e dalla sua nipotina Anneliese, destinate ai parenti «italiani». Trascritte e tradotte nei loro passaggi più importanti, queste lettere rappresentano ora un documento eccezionale, che ci permette di vivere in presa diretta le vicende di una famiglia ebraica tedesca dall'ascesa al potere di Hitler, nel 1933, alla deportazione delle due donne, nel 1942. Dalla serenità di un giardino sulle rive del Danubio all'inferno del Lager. Il carteggio, composto di parole sincere, intime, familiari, strazianti, descrive nel suo complesso il lento percorso, durato nove interminabili anni, attraverso il quale nonna e nipote vengono condotte senza pietà, umiliazione dopo umiliazione, all'esito atroce della deportazione e della morte. Grazie al lavoro di contestualizzazione storica operato da Mara Fazio, in queste pagine il lettore ha il privilegio di seguire la storia in prima persona, condividendo la commozione, l'angoscia, le esili speranze, la dignità, l'impotenza e il terrore che le parole di queste lettere ancora suscitano a distanza di ottant'anni. Ed è tanto più importante che l'operazione di recupero di questo materiale unico sia stata compiuta proprio da Mara Fazio, una diretta discendente, che oltre alla competenza storiografica mostra una dedizione ostinata, ispirata da profonda pietas filiale, dolorosamente percepibile.

8vo, 390pp. The straggly beard, the hooked nose, the bag of coins, and gaudy apparel - the religious artists of medieval Christendom had no shortage of virulent symbols for identifying Jews. Yet, hateful as these depictions were, the story they tell is not as simple as it first appears. Drawing on a wide range of primary sources, Lipton argues that these visual stereotypes were neither an inevitable outgrowth of Christian theology nor a simple reflection of medieval prejudices. Instead, she maps out the complex relationship between medieval Christians' religious ideas, social experience, and developing artistic practices that drove their depiction of Jews from benign, if exoticized, figures connoting ancient wisdom to increasingly vicious portrayals inspired by (and designed to provoke) fear and hostility. At the heart of this lushly illustrated and meticulously researched work are questions that have occupied scholars for ages-why did Jews becomes such powerful and poisonous symbols in medieval art? Why were Jews associated with certain objects, symbols, actions, and deficiencies? And what were the effects of such portrayals-not only in medieval society, but throughout Western history? What we find is that the image of the Jew in medieval art was not a portrait of actual neighbours or even imagined others, but a cloudy glass into which Christendom gazed to find a distorted, phantasmagoric rendering of itself.

8vo, br. ed. pp.278. Un memoir, i ricordi dell'autore: la sua famiglia, la famiglia d'origine della madre, i due villaggi che l'hanno visto bambino. E i personaggi veri che popolano Leoncin e Bilgoraj - il padre sognatore, ingenuo, fragile, affascinato dal chassidismo con la sua vena mistica, le sue danze e i suoi canti, ma incapace di mantenere la famiglia a un livello accettabile; la madre, donna colta e intellettuale; il nonno, rabbino autorevole e benestante; la nonna, regina di una cucina generosa e affollata - sono, se possibile, ancora più vivi e originali di quelli dei romanzi, come se l'autore, mentre scrive, stesse rivivendo quei giorni lontani, e li raccontasse con lo stesso sguardo critico, ironico, ma affettuoso e tollerante che gli appartiene sempre. Una storia vera, calata nell'ambiente ristretto di due villaggi d'antan, che in realtà rivela un intero universo.

8vo, hardcover in dj. Lauded as a “great Jew,” excoriated by antisemites, and one of Britain’s most renowned prime ministers, Benjamin Disraeli has been widely celebrated for his role in Jewish history. But is the perception of him as a Jewish hero accurate? In what ways did he contribute to Jewish causes? In this groundbreaking, lucid investigation of Disraeli’s life and accomplishments, David Cesarani draws a new portrait of one of Europe’s leading nineteenth-century statesmen, a complicated, driven, opportunistic man. While acknowledging that Disraeli never denied his Jewish lineage, boasted of Jewish achievements, and argued for Jewish civil rights while serving as MP, Cesarani challenges the assumption that Disraeli truly cared about Jewish issues. Instead, his driving personal ambition required him to confront his Jewishness at the same time as he acted opportunistically. By creating a myth of aristocratic Jewish origins for himself, and by arguing that Jews were a superior race, Disraeli boosted his own career but also contributed to the consolidation of some of the most fundamental stereotypes of modern antisemitism.
