Chi fu veramente Concetto Marchesi? Il «più audace dei pensatori moderni», come lo definì Togliatti, o «un grande partigiano», come polemicamente lo rivendicò Pietro Secchia? Luciano Canfora affronta la figura di uno dei personaggi più controversi della sinistra italiana. Di Concetto Marchesi (1878-1957) può dirsi che ebbe due vite: quella vera, di uomo di genio, con la sua grandezza, e le sue debolezze e zone d'ombra, il suo fiuto politico, il suo pessimistico individualismo; e quella, artificiosa, del mito postumo. L'esperienza che segnò tutta la sua vicenda fu la resa, e poi adesione, al fascismo della maggioranza degli italiani. Marchesi convisse col fascismo nella difficile po...

'Espionage, Diplomacy & the Lodge' is one of Ric Berman's most recent works. The book unveils one of eighteenth-century Britain's least known but most influential figures - Charles Delafaye, under-secretary of state, spymaster, investigating magistrate and freemason. Delafaye was a member of the elite Horn Tavern lodge in London and at the centre of the government's inner circle for some two decades. He was a key conduit for intelligence from the Secret Department of the Post Office and the decrypters and code-breakers within its deciphering branch, and central to the measures taken against the Jacobite supporters of James Stuart, 'the king over the water'. Ric Berman provides a unique glimpse into Britain's early secret service operations and explains for the first time the cross-over between freemasonry, espionage and diplomacy.
