El cuerpo del duce Un ensayo sobre el desenlace del fascismo
En una entrevista Jung retrató a Mussolini como el hombre de la fuerza física, con él se tiene la agradable sensación de estar frente a un ser humano, mientras con Hitler se siente miedo. Seguramente, junto con Berlusconi, el duce es el líder político más corporal del siglo XX italiano. El consenso del que llegó a gozar se basó en su físico y en el dominio del espacio. Sergio Luzzatto sigue la pista de ese carisma a través de una visión panóptica del fascismo y del antifascismo cultural y político, pre y postbélico, incluyendo la gran literatura y la literatura de consumo, hasta completar una apasionante radiografía de las representaciones del dictador en el imaginario colectivo.

Indiana University Press Moshe's Children: The Orphans of the Holocaust and the Birth of Israel
Moshe's Children presents the inspiring story of Moshe Zeiri, a Jewish carpenter responsible for rescuing hundreds of Jewish refugee children who had survived the Final Solution. During the liberation of Italy, Zeiri, a volunteer in the British Army in Italy, assumed responsibility for and vowed to help around seven hundred Polish, Hungarian, Russian, and Romanian children. Although these orphans of the Shoah had been deprived of a family, a home, and a language and were irreparably robbed of their past, they were able to rebuild their lives through Zeiri's efforts as he founded the largest Jewish orphanage in postwar Europe in Selvino, Italy, where he began to rehabilitate the orphans and to teach them how to become citizens of the new nation of Israel.Moshe's Children also explores Zeiri's own story from birth in a shtetl to his upbringing and Zionist education, his journey to the Land of Israel, and his work there before the war. With narrative verve and scholarly acumen, Sergio Luzzatto brilliantly tells the gripping stories of these orphans of the Holocaust and the good man who helped point them to a real future.
