The first part of Volume 14 of the Yearbook presents ten essays concerned with Futurism in Italy, Russia, Ukraine, Czechoslovakia, Romania and Germany, and two focusing on dance and typography. Among other things, this publication provides analysis of the futurist manifestos from late 1910 and 1911 and Velimir Khlebnikov’s futurist essays, as well as the networks of Futurism in Odessa. In the second part, a section on Caricatures and Satires of Futurism in the Contemporary Press examines five humorous images from five countries, in which the movement and its leader were lampooned. This section is followed by nine reviews of recent exhibitions, conferences and publications, and an annual bibliography with details of 128 new books on Futurism.

La malattia sopraggiunta nel 1947, in concomitanza con la narrazione degli ultimi avvenimenti esposti, e la successiva morte gli impedirono, però, di pubblicare l’opera.
