Абрам Липскеров был владельцем газеты «Новости дня», были у него и скаковые конюшни, также имел громадный особняк сначала на Неглинке, а потом на Мясницкой. Он держал на Покровке открытый дом – и там был стол для "недостаточной интеллигенции", то есть для бедных. Можно было прийти пообедать и получить рюмку водки. У него бывали Шаляпин, Горький и Чехов. "Новости дня" – газета более-менее бульварная, но Гиляровский, Чехов и Дорошевич там тоже печатались.

Mea Schearim, die Stadt der 100 Tore, ist ein Viertel von Jerusalem, das fast ausschließlich von ultraorthodoxen Juden bewohnt wird. Um diese unfassbar aufregende und fremde Welt und ihre Spiritualität erfassen und verständlich machen zu können, muss man dort gelebt haben – so wie Tuvia Tenenbom, der in Mea Schearim aufgewachsen ist und nach vielen Jahren in New York hierher zurückgekehrt ist, um sich seiner Vergangenheit zu stellen: Denn Tenenbom entstammt selber einer ultraorthodoxen Familie, lernte in einer Jeschiwa, und ihm wurde eine Zukunft als einer der ganz großen Rabbis prophezeit.

Pulitzer. È sufficiente il nome perché la mente vada al premio che, da un secolo, è il più ambito nel mondo dell'informazione e incarna l'idea di un giornalismo rigoroso e autorevole. Il premio Pulitzer nasce grazie al lascito di Joseph Pulitzer, uno dei più influenti editori e giornalisti di tutti i tempi, immigrato ungherese che, nel 1864, approdò negli Stati Uniti con pochi soldi e molta intraprendenza. Uomo di straordinario talento, Pulitzer occupò la scena pubblica americana per anni, ingaggiando battaglie e polemiche dalle colonne del suo giornale, il «World».

Marguerite Higgins was both the scourge and envy of the journalistic world. A longtime reporter for the New York Herald Tribune, she first catapulted to fame with her dramatic account of the liberation of Dachau at the end of World War II. Brash, beautiful, ruthlessly competitive, and sexually adventurous, she forced her way to the front despite being told the combat zone was no place for a woman. While the Herald Tribune exploited her feminine appeal—it was Maggie's dogged determination, talent for breaking news, and unwavering ambition that brought her success from one war zone to another.

«Questo libro l’ho pensato una sera di qualche anno fa, dopo un reportage realizzato a Taranto, che trovate tra le storie che ho scelto di raccontarvi. Me ne stavo in albergo, a chiedermi: dov’è finita la Costituzione? In quell’istante ho squadernato con la memoria le tante situazioni e persone che ho incontrato in vent’anni di giornalismo. Qui ne trovate alcune. Ciascuna è un frammento di una storia corale, quella dell’Italia repubblicana, che chiama in causa due parole: giustizia e popolo.

Che cos'è oggi la Siria dopo anni di sconfitte e di speranze, di occasioni negate e di lotta quotidiana contro l'indifferenza? È nel difetto, anzi nell'assenza, di qualsiasi solidarietà e riconoscimento di quanto accade che attecchiscono i semi dell'integralismo. Perché non dovrebbe essere così? Abbiamo lasciato soli i siriani all'interno del Paese, ignorando la loro tragedia abbiamo spinto le nuove generazioni al sacrificio, al martirio. Eppure è in Siria che affondano, cristallizzandosi, questioni importanti che toccano il mondo intero.

L’esistenza è felicità, è un’eterna celebrazione, è una festa.”

Small acts of courage matter. Sometimes, they change the world. Our history books are filled with the stories of those who fought for democracy and freedom—for idealism itself—against all odds, from Mahatma Gandhi and Nelson Mandela to Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. These iconic struggles for social change illustrate the importance of engagement and activism, and offer a template for the battles we are fighting today. But using the right words is often easier than taking action; action can be hard, and costly.

Mary Welsh, a celebrated wartime journalist during the London Blitz and the liberation of Paris, meets Ernest Hemingway in May 1944. He becomes so infatuated with Mary that he asks her to marry him the third time they meet—although they are married to other people. Eventually, she succumbs to Ernest's campaign, and in the last days of the war joined him at his estate in Cuba. Through Mary's eyes, we see Ernest Hemingway in a fresh light. Their turbulent marriage survives his cruelty and abuse, perhaps because of their sexual compatibility and her essential contribution to his writing.
