About the book:    (from the dust jacket) Gactano, a beautiful blue-tailed pheasant, lived in a game preserve in Italy. 'There, Cecco carefully tended the birds so that they would be in fine plumage when the hunting season opened. In the first days of the season, Gactano was horrified to see many of his friends killed by the hunters' bullets. Managing to escape, he tried to tell the other pheasants how to avoid the hunters. When the hunting season was finally over, he determined to fly away to some place that would be safe for pheasants. This hunting fable is about wild birds and the sportsmen who shoot them, about courage and conformity and freedom. Most of all, it is a beautiful and tender story magnificently illustrated, that will be read and loved by children everywhere. Cingoli, Giulio; Carloni, Giancarlo (illustrator).…

Brossura. Condition: new. Jonadi, 2025; br., cm 16x22. In questo libro, l'autore intreccia passione genealogica e memoria storica per restituire voce e dignità a uomini e donne del proprio paese, Piscopio, le cui vite rischierebbero altrimenti di svanire nell'oblio. Ispirandosi alla visione storiografica di Marc Bloch e Lucien Febvre, pionieri della storia "dal basso", questo lavoro raccoglie e ricostruisce genealogie familiari a partire dai registri parrocchiali del Settecento, integrandole con frammenti di vita, dati anagrafici e racconti tramandati. Guidato dal concetto ebraico di Toledoth - generazioni - e dall'imperativo morale di Zakhor - ricorda -, l'autore ci invita a riflettere su una verità tanto semplice quanto potente: ogni vita merita di essere ricordata. Non solo quella dei grandi personaggi, ma anche quella delle persone semplici, umili, apparentemente anonime, che hanno contribuito silenziosamente alla storia collettiva. Questo libro è, in definitiva, un atto d'amore verso la memoria, un omaggio alla dignità umana e un invito a riconoscere valore anche nelle vite più ordinarie, perché - come scriveva Bloch - niente di ciò che gli esseri umani hanno vissuto può non interessare lo storico.
