brossura Negli anni del secondo dopoguerra il Partito comunista italiano si distinse nella costruzione di strumenti e di strutture per il "lavoro culturale", finalizzati al coinvolgimento degli intellettuali. Anche in questo ambito Palmiro Togliatti fu determinante non solo per il ruolo di segretario nazionale del PCI, ma soprattutto perché riteneva che la politica culturale svolgesse una funzione fondamentale per un partito politico. In un contesto dominato dallo scontro tra i due blocchi, malgrado l'allineamento dei comunisti all'Unione Sovietica, Togliatti mirò a rafforzare, anche in contrasto con alcuni componenti del suo partito, le radici nazionali del PCI, a non limitare la politica culturale a mera propaganda ideologica, a fare in modo che il pensiero di Antonio Gramsci non solo ispirasse la costruzione del «partito nuovo», ma fosse anche riconosciuta, come scrisse, quale «coscienza critica di un secolo di storia del nostro paese». La documentazione che si è resa disponibile dopo la fine della Guerra fredda fornisce nuovi elementi per comprendere la complessità e l'originalità della politica culturale di Togliatti. A cinquant'anni dalla scomparsa, la Fondazione Istituto Gramsci ne vuole ricordare la figura anche con questa ricerca di Albertina Vittoria sul suo rapporto con gli intellettuali.

P. Togliatti - Per un nuovo indirizzo della politica italiana - 1953 pp. 63 Il rapporto tenuto al Comitato Centrale del PCI dal leader comunista, per appassionati, studiosi e collezionisti
br. Almeno due generazioni di italiani non hanno un ricordo di Palmiro Togliatti da vivo. Sono passati cinquant'anni dalla sua morte e di Togliatti è sopravvissuta forse un'immagine di uomo freddo, scostante, che portava occhiali da professore, un intellettuale avaro nei sentimenti, un politico scaltro e cinico, troppo filosovietico e ortodosso per ispirare o appassionare. Ma bisogna allora spiegare perché l'Italia proletaria fu pronta all'insurrezione armata quando si attentò alla sua vita, e perché milioni di italiani di ogni ceto ebbero il sentimento, nel giorno della sua morte, che con lui se ne andava uno dei padri della Repubblica. "Quegli incredibili funerali! Un milione di persone al seguito del feretro, gente arrivata da ogni parte d'Italia, comunisti e non comunisti, gente che ha preso il primo treno, il primo aereo per vederlo l'ultima volta nella camera ardente, gente che saluta con il pugno chiuso o chinando il capo, o segnandosi con la croce, donne e uomini in lacrime come se piangessero un loro padre. Ma l'uomo che è morto non è colui che ha sempre ritenuto la politica cosa troppo importante per lasciarla fare alla gente semplice? Che cosa è che gli italiani piangono in quell'uomo?" Giorgio Bocca tentò nel 1973 di rispondere a queste domande: anche solo osare occuparsi di Togliatti per un giornalista (non uno storico) non comunista significava esporsi a critiche e attacchi di ogni tipo. Prefazione di Luciano Canfora.

19471474<p>Robeson Paul W.E.B. Du Bois and Roscoe Dungee.</p><p>To the President and Congress of the United States of America Petition and Typed Letter Bearing Signatures of Robeson Du Bois and Dungee. New York: Communist Party USA 1947.</p><p><br />Single-page typed letter and two-page petition printed on rectos only. Each page 8 1/2 x 11 inches 215 x 280 mm.</p><p>A rare typed letter bearing signatures of Paul Robeson W.E.B. Du Bois and Roscoe Dungee asking recipients to sign a petition against banning the Communist Party USA. <strong>We believe the signatures were printed as does an autograph expert we consulted.</strong></p><p>In any case the three African-American leaders sprang into action after President Truman's Labor Secretary Lewis B. Schwellenbach told Congress that the Communist Party should be outlawed. Schwellenbach was concerned about Communist control and infiltration of labor unions and thought no Communist should be allowed to lead a union.</p><p>The letter is dated March 22 1947 and carries the address of 23 West 26th Street New York the Communist Party's headquarters at the time. The letter is aimed at African-American recipients: "This invitation to sign the petition is also being sent to several hundred other Negro leaders throughout the country."</p><p>According to the letter "It is clear that Labor Secretary Schwellenbach's proposal to suppress the Communist Party involves a flagrant negation of our constitutional Bill of Rights. It represents therefore a serious threat to the civil liberties of all minority groups." The authors urge recipients to mail back a postal reply card confirming they would sign the petition. The card is not present probably because it was mailed back to the Communist Party.</p><p>The petition which is also rare is addressed to the President and Congress urging them to reject Schwellenbach's "fascist-like proposal" to ban the Communist Party. The Party was not banned but the government regularly harassed and imprisoned its leaders in the 1940s and '50s.</p><p>Even though we believe the signatures on the letter were printed these materials are nonetheless rare. We have not found any institutional holdings of the letter or petition. None in commerce.</p><p>CONDITION: Pages lightly creased for mailing staple on petition badly rusted. A Very Good set. <strong>RARE</strong>.</p> [Communist Party USA]

8vo, hardcover in dj, 451pp. “In Vladimir Alexandrov’s To Break Russia's Chains we are offered a poignant idea of what ‘might have been’ in the last century of history if Savinkov’s struggle for a democratic Russia had succeeded….Alexandrov presents Savinkov in all his complexity, particularly the blind spots which sank so many of his efforts.” - Washington Independent Review of Books “To Break Russia’s Chains is well-written, often gripping. Spies, double deals, subterfuge, plots, arrests, escapes, and revolutionary acts abound across its 500 pages. Alexandrov offers the best conclusion for understanding Savinkov’s remarkable life and ultimate fate: ‘as is often the case, what happened was the exact opposite of what he expected.’” - Origins "This excellent study expertly chronicles the complexities of the Russian Revolution and the Civil War through the extraordinary life of Boris Savinkov...The breadth of Alexandrov’s research is highly impressive as is his large cast of characters, whom he handles very deftly. This very welcome biography now brings Savinkov’s adventures to a whole new audience." - History of War "This compelling study distils a great deal of research into a fast-paced narrative [that] reads like a political thriller...it is a story Alexandrov tells with aplomb.” - Times Literary Supplement “A thorough and detailed study. One of the more remarkable lives in an era of remarkable lives. Alexandrov wonders just what might have been had Savinkov’s last plot not been thwarted…a question worth asking.” - The Los Angeles Review of Books "[An] engaging and thoroughly readable new biography... important and fascinating." - The Critic "Alexandrov’s biography is well worth reading for its depiction of the real feel of the historical situation and for the complexity of a historical character like Savinkov, whose life spanned a whole chapter of Russian history." - The American Conservative "A controversial figure in Russian history earns an impassioned, long-overdue treatment. This thoroughgoing biography builds [Savinkov’s] story with meticulous, novelistic detail...Throughout this fascinating historical biography, Alexandrov demonstrates his facility with the Soviet archives, delivering a scholarly yet accessible work perfect for library collections. A painstaking work of archival research that unearths little-known details of early Soviet history." - Kirkus, Starred Review "Marshalling a large cast of characters and a mountain of research into a fluid narrative, Alexandrov clarifies the complex dynamics of the Russian Revolution. This trenchant biography gives its fascinating subject his due." - Publishers Weekly "The importance of Boris Savinkov and his controversial role in the Russian Revolution and Civil War have been overlooked recently, but this excellent and well-written biography by Professor Alexandrov should do much to reawaken interest in his extraordinary life." -- Antony Beevor - author of STALINGRAD “Boris Savinkov was one of the most colourful, notorious and enigmatic figures in revolutionary Russia – a flamboyant hero to some, an untrustworthy villain to others. Extraordinarily influential in his lifetime – and still a legendary figure in Russia – this complex individual has been all-but forgotten in the West. Vladimir Alexandrov’s superb biography provides a page-turning account of Savinkov’s roller-coaster life, as well as throwing valuable new light on the history of the Russian state.” -- Giles Milton, best-selling author of Churchill's Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare and D-Day "The extraordinary life of Boris Savinkov—revolutionary assassin, self-described terrorist, and novelist—is one of those historical enigmas peculiar to the tragedy of modern Russia. But in the hands of this masterful biographer, Savinkov is resurrected. Vladimir Alexandrov expertly mines the archives to write a spy story filled with intrigue, passion and improbable adventures—and along the way we learn a great deal of history. A formidable achievement." -- Kai Bird is a Pulitzer Prize winning historian, the Director of the Leon Levy Center for Biography and the author most recently of The Outlier: The Unfinished Presidency of Jimmy Carter. Praise for The Black Russian—One of San Francisco Chronicle's Top Ten Nonfiction Books of 2013 "Magnetizing and unforgettable . . . In his assiduously researched, prodigiously descriptive, fluently analytical, and altogether astonishing work of resurrection, Alexandrov provides uniquely focused accounts of racial struggles in America and decadence and bloodshed in Europe and Russia while insightfully and dynamically portraying a singular man." - Booklist (starred review) "[A] gracefully written feat of historical sleuthing. . . . Through prodigious archival research, historical scholarship and painstaking reconstruction of secondhand accounts, [Alexandrov] has drawn a moving and vivid portrait of a remarkable American life." - The San Francisco Chronicle "With so much focus on the black experience in America in the 19th century, we might never consider the black experience in Europe at the same time. Vladimir Alexandrov's The Black Russian rectifies this oversight, and does so with panache. His tale is the biography of an individual who is wholly remarkable, regardless of race, and whose vitality, guile, and charm led him from Mississippi to Moscow, with plenty of adventures along the way. . . . Alexandrov transports the reader to an exotic era. Some of the most memorable parts of Thomas's life story lie in the incidental grace notes that add color to the lands through which he traveled." - The Daily Beast "Although Alexandrov constructed this vessel with sturdy timbers of historical research, it sails lightly on a swift narrative current that transports us from Reconstruction Mississippi to Memphis, New York City, London, Paris, Moscow and, finally, Constantinople. . . . Alexandrov excels at recreating the various worlds Thomas inhabited from his restricted existence during Reconstruction to his glittering fast-lane life on the Continent. . . . What [Thomas’s] life illustrates, as Alexandrov skillfully and gracefully shows, is that when people are unshackled from slaveries—of whatever sort—freedom's buoyancy can lift them to surprising heights, can offer miraculous views." - Cleveland Plain Dealer L'autore Vladimir Alexandrov& ;received a Ph.D. in comparative literature from Princeton. He taught Russian literature and culture at Harvard before moving to Yale, where he is B.E. Bensinger Professor of Slavic Languages and Literatures. He is the author of&The Black Russian&;as well as books on Bely, Nabokov, and Tolstoy, and lives in New Haven, Connecticut.
