È tempo di bilanci dopo 15 anni di ricerche topografico-archeologiche in Magna Grecia tra il fiume che segnava in età antica il confine tra il Reggino e la Locride e l'area dove era sorta la 'prima Locri'. Il paesaggio insediativo tra Capo Bruzzano e Palizzi mutò tra l'età protostorica, ricca di piccoli abitati siculi in contatto forse già con il mondo miceneo, e l'età alto-arcaica (ed oltre), epoca quest'ultima in cui i Greci fondarono Rhegion e Lokroi Epizephyrioi e giunsero poco dopo a fissare come limite tra i loro territori l'odierna fiumara di Palizzi, 'fortificata' su entrambi i versanti dalle due litigiose comunità elleniche. Mentre la città-stato sullo Stretto, a differenza dei vicini Locresi, strutturò la propria 'chora' realizzandovi alcuni strategici abitati greci minori, le perioikides note a Strabone e ormai documentate archeologicamente fino al confine con la Locride, in epoca successiva l'arrivo dei Brettii, agli inizi dell'età ellenistica, portò in zona alla nascita, a danno dei Locresi, di un piccolo autonomo stato indipendente incentrato sull'oppidum di Serro Mandi sopra Spropoli, la cui fine ebbe luogo solo a seguito dell'imposizione del dominio romano in Aspromonte.

  When the Austro-Hungarian Empire disintegrated after World War I, control of the Adriatic port of Fiume (now Rieka, Croatia) was hotly disputed. Enter “Pirate King” Gabriele d’Annunzio, an Italian poet who stormed the city with 3,000 Italian nationalists. D’Annunzio declared Fiume a free republic and himself commander. He envisioned a utopian city-state, but Fiume quickly became a surreal center of violence, looting, and decadence, with shades of the Fascist movement to come. Acclaimed comics artist David B. uses this real event as a backdrop and seamlessly weaves history, hysteria, and highly stylized art into the tragic love story of a beautiful torch singer and a young soldier haunted by the horrors of trench warfare. Praise for Black Paths: “David B. draws with the chaotic, high-contrast style he used in his best-known work, Epileptic, to capture the distressed, surreal mood of artists struggling to run the world.” ―Publishers Weekly, Starred Review “Expressive, colorful drawings and vivid character designs” ―Booklist “As with Epileptic, the art in Black Paths is twisted but the writing is straight, charting a clear narrative path through the insanity of Italy in the year following World War I...” ―The A.V. Club “Here’s a book that has everything going for it.” ―Comic Book Resource’s Robot6 blog “Black Paths is a fascinating study of the strange convergence of anarchy, fascism and art a century ago.” ―The Milwaukee Shepherd Express

WINNER OF THE 2013 SAMUEL JOHNSON PRIZE FOR NON-FICTION The story of Gabriele D'Annunzio, poet, daredevil - and Fascist. In September 1919 Gabriele D'Annunzio, successful poet and occasional politician, declared himself Commandante of the city of Fiume in modern-day Croatia. His intention - to establish a utopia based on his fascist and artistic ideals. It was the dramatic pinnacle to an outrageous career. Lucy Hughes-Hallett charts the controversial life of D'Annunzio, the debauched artist who became a national hero. His evolution from idealist Romantic to radical right-wing revolutionary is a political parable. Through his ideological journey, culminating in the failure of the Fiume endeavour, we witness the political turbulence of early 20th-century Europe and the emergence of fascism. In The Pike, Hughes-Hallett addresses the cult of nationalism and the origins of political extremism - and at the centre of the book stands the charismatic D'Annunzio: a figure as deplorable as he is fascinating.
