In the late summer of 1943, when Italy broke with the Germans and joined the Allies after suffering catastrophic military losses, an Italian Resistance was born. Four young Piedmontese women - Ada, Frida, Silvia and Bianca - living secretly in the mountains surrounding Turin, risked their lives to overthrow Italy’s authoritarian government. They were among the thousands of Italians who joined the Partisan effort to help the Allies liberate their country from the German invaders and their Fascist collaborators.

Since childhood Helene Stapinski heard lurid tales about her great-great-grandmother, Vita. In Southern Italy she was a loose woman who had murdered someone. Immigrating to America with three children, she lost one along the way. Helene's youthful obsession with Vita deepened as she grew up, eventually propelling the journalist to Italy, where, with her own children in tow, she pursued the story, determined to set the record straight.

In a thrilling narrative built on formidable research, Ben Lewis tracks the extraordinary journey of a masterpiece lost and found, lied and fought over across the centuries. In 2017, Leonardo da Vinci’s small oil painting, the Salvator Mundi was sold at auction for $450m. In the words of its discoverer, the image of Christ as saviour of the world is ‘the rarest thing on the planet by the greatest human being who ever lived’. Its dazzling price also makes it the world’s most expensive painting.

The Moors are well-known for their presence on the Iberian Peninsula during the Middle Ages and for the conflicts they fought in Europe, but the term Moor is a historical rather than an ethnic name. It is an invention of European Christians for the Islamic inhabitants of Maghreb (North Africa), Andalusia (Spain), Sicily, and Malta, and it was sometimes used to designate all Muslims.

Covering more than 1,000 years of history, and an empire that stretched from Scotland to Syria, Ancient Rome reveals in vivid detail all of the key political, cultural, and military events that shaped the Roman Empire and explores what it was like to live in a society that laid the foundations for many aspects of the modern world.

Foreign correspondent Christine Toomey spent years renovating her glorious, long-abandoned hill-top home in Le Marche, Italy, as a haven of rest from covering crises around the world. But in 2016, the peace and beauty of this beloved landscape were thrown into chaos when a series of powerful earthquakes struck the heart of the Apennines. Wracked with grief for a place still reverberating with seismic aftershocks, Christine set out on a journey of discovery through the history of a landscape that gave birth to so much of Western culture and civilisation.

Siamo a Firenze nel 1921, le squadracce fasciste imperversano in città e si organizzano i gruppi di autodifesa socialisti e comunisti. Gli scontri sono all’ordine del giorno e il giovane fascista Giovanni Berta viene prima malmenato e poi gettato da un ponte nell’Arno. Immediatamente i fascisti trasformarono questo fatto in un martirio, enfatizzando la brutalità e la ferocia delle masse operaie. A queste dovevano porre un argine l’indomita fede e il senso di sacrificio dei sostenitori del fascismo.

Nella Resistenza italiana, parte integrante di un conflitto globale che travolge i confini nazionali e spazza vite e destini ai quattro angoli del pianeta, hanno combattuto migliaia di persone – non meno di 15-20.000 – che italiane non erano. Le nazionalità sono decine: statunitensi e britannici, neozelandesi e sudafricani, jugoslavi e francesi, libici, etiopi, eritrei e somali, e poi tedeschi, sovietici, polacchi, cecoslovacchi, ebrei stranieri.

È tutto vero. È tutto rimasto finora nell’ombra. 1992: la mafia attacca il cuore dello Stato. 2022: trent’anni dopo, una ricostruzione inedita su quelle terribili stragi. Perché quella che fu una vera e propria guerra allo Stato è stata ideata con il contributo di una mafia segreta e intoccabile. Non solo: la strategia stragista di Cosa nostra servì al giovane boss Matteo Messina Denaro per attuare un ricambio generazionale e prendere il comando dell’organizzazione, facendo compiere un salto di qualità alla mafia e trasformandola in maniera profonda, con conseguenze che riusciamo a capire solo oggi.

The campaign of 1859 in Northern Italy was one of the first of the epoch-making, rapidly conducted wars that marked the latter half of the nineteenth century. It was, moreover, as has been pointed out by the author of Imperial Strategy, the “first war in Europe which conveyed some preliminary indication of what railways can accomplish.”

Based on previously undisclosed archival materials, this book tells the fascinating, untold, and troubling story of an anti-Protestant campaign in Italy that lasted longer, consumed more clerical energy and cultural space, and generated far more literature than the war against Italy's Jewish population.

A 75 anni dalla Liberazione, finalmente una ricostruzione con l'ambizione di proporre uno sguardo complessivo su fatti, momenti e protagonisti che hanno cambiato per sempre il nostro Paese.

Questa, più che una storia di mafia, è la storia di un gruppo di ragazzi, cresciuti nella Sicilia degli anni Ottanta, compagni di gioco sullo stesso campetto di terra battuta, che si allontanano fino a diventare nemici. I ragazzi di Regalpetra racconta la lunga guerra di mafia che agli inizi degli anni Novanta insanguinò una parte della Sicilia. E il conflitto, che vedeva amici di un tempo gli uni contro gli altri, esplose anche nei luoghi di Leonardo Sciascia, il grande scrittore che proprio sessant'anni fa fece letteratura delle cronache del suo paese con Le parrocchie di Regalpetra.

A partir del siglo XVII el grandioso arte del Renacimiento va tomando matices nacionalistas y de cierta exageración que se expresan en cada nación de una manera muy distinta. Es el estilo que se denomina habitualmente barroco y que presenta más diferencias que las que aparecían en el Renacimiento. Italia destaca de nuevo en este estilo artístico con la misma fuerza que en otras épocas.

In The Einstein Vendetta, Thomas Harding recounts the story of an unthinkable crime, one that unspools to reveal Italy’s brutal wartime history – its fall to fascism, antisemitism and bitter partisanship – and a family’s search for justice. Vividly told, drawing on previously unpublished archival sources and first-hand accounts, Harding threads history and detective story to build an unquiet, haunting testimony.

For listeners eager to experience Gibbon’s brilliant primary historicism, to understand the long decline of Rome—and the reasons for the Empire’s demise—there exists no better or more accessible condensation of Decline and Fall.

The story of the Giro d'Italia—Italy's equivalent of the Tour de France, and its superior in the eyes of many—is as dramatic and full of extraordinary characters as the story of Italy itself. Heroism, suffering, feuds and betrayals, tradition under threat from modernity all play out against a timeless landscape. The iconic riders, mythical stories and career-defining exploits are conveyed in rich, vibrant prose.

Between 1950 and 1970, the Vatican and the American Catholic Church sent nearly four thousand Italian children to the United States for adoption into “good” Catholic homes. With the religious stigma of unwed motherhood turning families against daughters and a Church and State wanting “illegitimate” children sent abroad, mothers were lied to, given forms to sign that they didn’t understand, or even told their baby had died, all to further supply this international adoption pipeline.
