Title :
Parties in CongressAuthor: Moody Colette Publisher: Bold Strokes Books They say politics makes strange bedfellows... Elated to secure her first paid political staff position, Bijal Rao is eager to focus her efforts on the election of her candidate to U.S. Congress. However, Bijal's first unforeseen obstacle is her profound and unexpected attraction to their opponent—incumbent Congresswoman Colleen O'Bannon¬—who is outspoken, charismatic, and openly lesbian. An even greater hurdle is the subterfuge and pretense that pervades the climate in Washington, D.C., where small missteps are readily painted as major gaffes, and lies are explained away as 'in the public's best interest.' During the heated campaign, both Bijal and Colleen struggle not to cross the lines of propriety—and perhaps more importantly, their party lines. € 15,20

Title :
Shadows of a Fleeting WorldAuthor: Martin David F., Bromberg Nicolette, Wilson Betsy (FRW), Mudrock Theresa (FRW) Publisher: Univ of Washington Pr Pictorialism emerged in the early twentieth century as a prominent style of fine art photography. Artists engaged in this style were interested in the effects of transient light and Japanese compositional elements. They developed innovative darkroom techniques to create unique soft-focus photographs that reflected contemporary painting styles, especially Impressionism. Historically, Pictorial photography was narrowly defined by certain characteristics that led to an inaccurate assessment of its important contributions to the medium. Recent rediscoveries from American regional camera clubs, including the Seattle Camera Club (SCC), reveal that the movement was broader and more individualist than previously thought. Shadows of a Fleeting World provides a rare glimpse into the regional Pictorialist movement. It documents the lives and artistic accomplishments of the SCC photographers. The SCC was one of the most active and successful in the United States, and, fortunately, preservation of its works and history allow for a rich interpretation of its art. Japanese immigrants formed the club's core, and their work routinely blended Pictorialist methods with Japanese aesthetic traditions. The Japanese-influenced Pictorialist works of the SCC made a unique contribution to the international art movement. The book is generously illustrated with images and prints from SCC artists, many of which have never been published before. € 40,20

Title :
La stregoneria. Storia di una follia profondamente umanaAuthor: Arnould Colette Publisher: edizioni Dedalo Argomento ampiamente frequentato dalla storiografia (e non solo), la stregoneria ha sempre suscitato notevole curiosità in un vasto pubblico, una curiosità talvolta morbosa, che ha spesso nuociuto alla qualità degli studi ad essa dedicati. Il merito di quest'opera risiede innanzitutto nel rigore scientifico con cui l'autrice interroga la storia e ne trae interpretazioni che investono l'uomo nelle pieghe più intime e oscure del suo immaginario e del suo inconscio. Il libro va dritto al cuore del problema, ripercorrendo le tracce di una storia che affonda le radici nell'antichità e giunge fino ai nostri giorni, dopo aver caratterizzato in forme diverse il Medioevo e l'epoca moderna. Medea e Circe sono le mitiche progenitrici di una figura, quella della strega (e, in minor misura, dello stregone), che riesce a catalizzare su di sé alcuni nodi cruciali della vicenda storica dell'Occidente, in un groviglio nel quale religione, superstizione e magia convivono. Una lucida e penetrante analisi storico-culturale, capace di svelare meccanismi e moventi di un fenomeno da cui abbiamo ancora molto da imparare. Prefazione di Massimo Centini. € 31,00

Title :
Righteous PorkchopAuthor: Niman Nicolette Hahn Publisher: Avon A Investigating hog manure pollution was hardly the glamorous assignment Nicolette Hahn Niman pictured when going to work for Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. in New York. But her odyssey into the inner workings of the 'factory farm' industry transformed her into an intrepid environmental lawyer who goes up against the big-business farming establishment. Niman uncovers shocking practices, including inhumane animal confinement and devastating water and air pollution. She organizes a national reform movement to fight these practices and shows that livestock farming can be done in a better way--not only for hogs, but also for poultry, fish, and dairy cows. She also tours the best of farms, where traditional farmers and ranchers treat their animals humanely and have joined with other farmers to successfully market the foods they produce. She profiles the innovative and cost-effective methods these operations have incorporated to make a profit by ethical, sustainable means.--From publisher description. € 14,30

Title :
L'Ingenua libertinaAuthor: Colette Publisher: ES 'Quando scrissi 'Minne' avevo l'intenzione di scrivere una novella, e la sola ambizione di poterla firmare. Bisognava dunque, per distogliere da essa un desiderio che si rivolgeva in genere alle dimensioni del romanzo, che si trattasse di una novella piuttosto breve. E lo fu, ma non per molto. Il successo fu la sua rovina: una bocca coniugale pronunciò parole di lode, ed altre parole troppo insistenti perché io possa trovar loro un posto in questa Nota. Dovetti diluire un poco Minne. Dovetti scrivere 'Les égarements de Minne', che non riuscii mai a considerare un buon romanzo. Divenne forse migliore quando più tardi, ridiventando di mia proprietà, abbreviato e alleggerito, lo unii a Minne facendone un unico volume.' (Colette) € 20,00

Lettere a MissyAuthor: Colette; Bordji S. (cur.); Maget F. (cur.) Publisher: Archinto Nella tumultuosa vita sentimentale di Colette, accanto ai tre mariti (Henry Gauthier-Villars alias Willy, Henry de Jouvenel e Maurice Goudeket), la marchesa de Morny (detta Missy) occupa un posto particolare. Di nobili natali, dopo un matrimonio combinato con un aristocratico durato pochi anni, Missy si ritrova in possesso di un'immensa fortuna e, in spregio di tutte le convenzioni, decide di affermare la propria mascolinità: porta i capelli corti, veste in completo da uomo, calza stivali troppo grandi imbottendoli di fogli di giornale, fuma il sigaro e si fa chiamare Max o zio Max. La corrispondenza inizia nel 1907, quando Colette si separa da Willy. In questi anni, che vanno annoverati tra i più difficili della scrittrice, Missy porta dolcezza e conforto e al contempo un sostegno materiale. Ma da bambina incorreggibile, viziata, collerica qual è, Colette mal si adatta all'inguaribile malinconia dell'amica. Se le lettere che le scrive parlano di amore e di passione, lasciano anche presagire che, mossa da un impulso naturale, non ci metterà molto a lasciare questa figura materna, come aveva fatto con la vera madre, Sido. Quando, nel dicembre del 1931 sul 'Gringoire' inizia la pubblicazione di 'Ces plaisirs...', nel cuore del racconto si profila una maestosa ed enigmatica figura chiamata la Cavallerizza. € 17,00

Title :
Tu non sei soloAuthor: Nys Mazure Colette Publisher: Servitium Editrice La vita moderna è segnata dal sigillo della solitudine. L'angoscia esistenziale è palpabile. I malintesi, l'indifferenza, la falsità, la morte scavano il baratro che ci separa dall'altro. E tuttavia, 'non siamo giustapposti, ma misteriosamente legati, tessuti nella trama universale'. Se la solitudine è la nostra comune condizione, basta un niente una parola, un sorriso, uno sguardo inaspettato perché la distanza venga eliminata, perché divampi la gioia di reincontrarsi. La missione dei poeti non è forse quella di aprirci a questo percorso, di provocare l'incontro? In una trentina di brevi testi, Colette Nys-Mazure ci invita a penetrare nel cuore di questo segreto intreccio che sostiene tutti gli esseri. € 14,00

Title :
Wisdom of the Hidden Realms Oracle CardsAuthor: Baron-Reid Colette Publisher: Hay House Inc Mystics have passed down stories of magical realms hidden from mortal sight, bridging the world of Nature and Spirit. Even before the written word, the ancients established a Divine partnership between humans and these Hidden Realms. Both agreed to form an eternal Sacred Alliance to establish harmony and balance between the material and the spiritual. The Alliance ensured that when we asked for guidance in manifesting our reality, they would help us find our way to the highest good for all. But in time, humanity turned itself away from the natural world as a source for the Divine and forgot about the realms in the Unseen realities. Religious superstition, dominance, and the power of intellect, reason, and technology became our focus; and our partnership was forgotten, so the realms faded away. As our global concerns have increasingly been more plaintive, they have returned to help us find our way home to our true purpose, prosperity, hope, and happiness. These cards represent some of those realms and their Queens and Kings, Princes, and other magical helpers. Let the Swan Queen point the way to transformation, the Arrow Master help you reach your goals, the Sun Dancers herald your victories, and the Sacred Union speak to the depth of your longing for love. Ask and ye shall receive, for the Highest Good is their motto. If you call upon them, they will answer € 17,90

Title :
Picturing the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific ExpositionAuthor: Bromberg Nicolette, Nowell Frank H. (PHT) Publisher: Univ of Washington Pr For those who experienced it, the Alaska-Yukon-Pacific Exposition was a time of wonder in a 'citadel set in stars' -- a grand world's fair that transformed the summer of 1909 in Seattle into a whirl of excitement and pleasure. On what would become the University of Washington campus, for a brief moment a huge city emerged. At noon on June 1, amidst the blasting of horns and whistles, confetti filled the air and the gates were opened to a pent-up crowd of about 80,000 fairgoers. At the end of the evening on October 16, the fair was over and the magical city became a memory for its 3.7 million visitors. For those who couldn't make the trip to see the exhibits and for the rest of us today, the best record of the event was made by Frank H. Nowell, official photographer for the exposition. He documented the construction of the city, its landscaping, the people who built it, and the people who visited it, as well as the buildings that housed displays from dozens of foreign countries. He used a large view camera and 8 x 10 glass-plate negatives to create several thousand photographs. For this book, Nicolette Bromberg has chosen the best and most representative. Her essay illuminates both the man and the fair, providing perspective to a history of the West that connects us to a world-expanding event a hundred years ago, and also contains Nowell's photographs of Alaska during the gold rush, relating how an Alaskan photographer became the official A-Y-P photographer. For the 100th anniversary of the exposition, John Stamets organized and led University of Washington students in a project to rephotograph the site. This book includes an essay by Stamets describing the challenges, delights, and problems of the project, along with thirty rephotographs that imagine the fabulously spectacular ghost city on the campus. € 32,70
