Comma 22 [Book] Goodreads
author: Joseph Heller / Sergio Claudio Perroni Bompiani 2019 - 5
Comma 22 ha rappresentato dal momento della sua pubblicazione una feroce critica alla guerra al punto che l’espressione “Comma 22” è entrata nell’immaginario collettivo come sinonimo dell’assurdità di tutti i conflitti. Ambientato in Italia durante la Seconda guerra mondiale, è la storia di Yossarian, antieroico bombardiere americano, ossessionato dall’idea che migliaia di nemici sconosciuti, ai quali personalmente non ha fatto nulla, vogliano porre fine ai suoi giorni senza un reale motivo. Ma la seccatura più grande non sono i nemici quanto il suo esercito che non fa che intensificare gli sforzi bellici e seguire zelantemente la disciplina marziale. Il numero delle missioni sembra crescere esponenzialmente e Yossarian e gli altri commilitoni si troveranno a fare i conti con l’ambizione e il cinismo dei loro superiori. Pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1961, il romanzo è stato universalmente riconosciuto come il capolavoro della letteratura antimilitarista di tutti i tempi, per la rappresentazione grottesca della retorica militare e per la chiave di lettura paradossale della guerra. Molti dei pacifisti che manifestavano davanti alla Casa Bianca ai tempi della guerra del Vietnam portavano appunto una spilla con lo slogan “Yossarian vive”. Dal romanzo è stato tratto l’omonimo film di Mike Nichols del 1970 e nel 2019 la serie TV Catch-22 diretta, prodotta e interpretata da George Clooney.

Das Kapital 1 [Book] Google Books Goodreads
author: Karl Marx CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform 2011 - 8
Marx, Heinrich Karl, was born in Trier on May 5, 1818, the son of the lawyer and later counsellor of justice Heinrich Marx, who, as is shown by the baptismal certificate of his son, converted with his family from Judaism to Protestantism in 1824. After concluding his preparatory education at Trier Gymnasium, Karl Marx studied from 1835 in Bonn and then in Berlin, first law and later philosophy, attaining his Dr. Phil. in Berlin in 1841 with a dissertation on the philosophy of Epicurus. In the same year he moved to Bonn in order to qualify as a lecturer, but the obstacles which the government laid in the path of his friend Bruno Bauer, officially there as lecturer in theology, which culminated in Bauer's removal from the university, soon made it clear to him that there was no room for him at a Prussian university. - This was the time when the younger elements of the radical bourgeoisie of the Rhineland, tinged with Young Hegelianism, urged, in agreement with the liberal leaders Camphausen and Hansemann, the publication of a big opposition paper in Cologne; Marx and Bauer were also consulted as capable main contributors. A concession - necessary at that time - was quietly obtained by a devious route, and the Rheinische Zeitung appeared on January 1, 1842. Marx contributed lengthy articles from Bonn for the new paper; foremost among these were: a critique of proceedings in the Rhine Province Assembly, a study of the situation of the peasant vintners on the Mosel, and another on wood theft and the relevant legislation. In October 1842 he took over the management of the paper and moved to Cologne. From this point the paper adopted a sharply appositional character. But the management was so adroit that despite first double censorship, and then triple censorship, imposed upon the paper (first the ordinary censor, then the Regierungspräsident, and finally a Mr. von Saint-Paul dispatched ad hoc from Berlin), the government found this sort of newspaper hard to deal with and therefore decided to forbid further publication of the paper as of April 1, 1843. Marx's resignation from the editorial board on this date bought a three months' stay of execution, but then the paper was finally suppressed.

Chi ha paura del gender? [Book] Goodreads
author: Judith Butler Editori Laterza 2024 - 9
In tutto il mondo il gender è sempre più spesso descritto come un mostro dai poteri distruttivi. A sentire chi diffonde il panico, il gender sarebbe una minaccia per la famiglia tradizionale, una negazione delle leggi di natura, un complotto delle élite, un attacco diretto alla mascolinità, Satana in persona, un pericolo per la vita e per la civiltà. Ma chi agita questo fantasma di cosa ha davvero paura? Quale agenda politica, questa sì reale e pericolosa, si nasconde dietro l'ideologia anti-gender?



I movimenti contro l'ʽideologia del gender' ritraggono il genere come un monolite, il cui potere e la cui portata sarebbero devastanti. In Russia il gender è stato definito una minaccia alla sicurezza nazionale. Il Vaticano ritiene sia un rischio per l'intera civiltà e per 'l'uomo' stesso. Per i conservatori di tutto il mondo vuole distruggere la famiglia tradizionale e proibire l'uso di termini come 'madre' e 'padre'. Negli Stati Uniti c'è chi dice che educa i minori all'omosessualità. La lista è ancora lunga.
Dipinto come una minaccia totalitaria, il gender è oggi un fantasma su cui si proiettano una miriade di ansie e paure. È uno spauracchio creato ad arte da chi vuole il ripristino di un ordine sociale autoritario, reazionario, patriarcale.
A più di trent'anni da Questione di genere, non serve allora una nuova teoria del genere, né smontare una a una le falsità in circolazione. Molto più urgente, secondo Judith Butler, è interrogarsi sulla struttura di questo fantasma, per capire da quali scopi è animato e come combatterlo. Spetta a noi produrre un immaginario alternativo, che tuteli i diritti e le libertà conquistati in decenni di lotte. Perché nulla è in grado di sconfiggere questo fantasma più dell'affermazione del desiderio di amare e di esistere nel mondo, respirando, muovendoci e vivendo liberamente. Perché mai non si dovrebbe volere che chiunque possa godere di queste libertà fondamentali?
