traduzione di Lucia Corradini SAGGI BLU GARZANTI 1995 155 PP. PRIMA EDIZIONE. LIEVI SEGNI DEL TEMPO, LIEVI FIORITURE AI TAGLI, VOLUME PRESSOCHé PERFETTO Con il ritmo incalzante di una tragedia classica, Todorov ha ricostruito minuziosamente un episodio di guerra civile: una pagina trascurata dalla storiografia ufficiale e tuttavia simile a mille altre vicende, anche italiane. Il tempo è l'estate del '44, pochi giorni prima dello sbarco alleato in Normandia. Il luogo, una cittadina della Francia centrale. Resistenti, popolazione civile, miliziani e tedeschi sono i personaggi del dramma. La liberazione sembra ormai vicina, e i partigiani decidono di anticiparla occupando Saint-Armand-Montrond. La reazione del governo di Vichy e dei tedeschi è immediata. Si innesca così il meccanismo implacabile della cattura di ostaggi, delle trattative inconcludenti e delle rappresaglie: un tragico braccio di ferro di cui fanno le spese soprattutto i civili, una lotta fratricida che avrà un esito catastrofico. Da tale successione di azioni e reazioni, narrata con assoluta verità documentaria, Todorov fa emergere una inquietante esemplarità. Nell'idealismo e nell'assolutismo dei fratelli nemici c'è un medesimo «stile», dettato da un'«etica della convinzione anziché da un'«etica della responsabilità», da una «morale del sacrificio» e non dalla «morale del rischio». Quest'ultima, semmai, è assunta da alcuni civili che si fanno mediatori tra le parti avverse, più preoccupati delle sofferenze e della sorte delle persone reali e concrete che non dei principi astratti. Alla fine, il senso profondo della messinscena allestita da Todorov non è quello dei fatti, ma quello delle posizioni etiche assunte, nelle convulsioni della storia, dagli esseri umani: vittime e carnefici, testimoni e protagonisti, eroi e vigliacchi.

Apologist documentary history of Ukranian participation in the Nazi Occupational Governemtn in Poland. "Volodymyr Mykhailovych Kubiyovych, was a Ukrainian geographer with a specialty in demography, a cartographer, an encyclopedist, politician, and statesman. Of mixed Ukrainian and Polish ethnic background, he was an important intellectual supporting the Ukrainian national movement in inter-war Poland, and his scholarly works from this period dealt with the Ukrainian ethnic presence in Poland, Czechoslovakia, and Romania, and with the geographical boundaries of ethnographic Ukraine. During World War II he headed the Cracow-based Ukrainian Central Committee which organized social and charitable work among Ukrainians in occupied Poland. Kubiyovych became a main proponent of the cooperation between certain Ukrainian Nationalist organizations and Nazi Germany with the ultimate goal of achieving an independent Ukrainian national state. After the war, he retired from political work but became one of the leading scholars of the Ukrainian diaspora in the West. After 1945, and throughout the Cold War, Kubiyovych remained a target of vociferous criticism by the Soviet authorities, focusing on some of his wartime activities, in particular his sponsoring of the Ukrainian division of Waffen-SS.
