And fortunately coming back!
I refer to the essay on the great Benito Jacovitti (Jacovitti - sixty years of comic surrealism "), edited by Nicola Pesce Editore .
This is, in effect, a new edition of the essay (by the same authors) published in the now remote 1992, the United Press (Jacovitti - the cartoonist and the myth in fifty ' years of Italian Comics ").
But between that and this is the same difference is found between the "Custody and Lucia" and "The Betrothed."
not because the authors have gone to wash clothes in the Arno (which, being all from Tuscany, it was unnecessary), but because you are dealing with a work rewritten, updated and expanded.
The book is a hardback with laminated cover (size 20x27 cm), 352 pages, well printed in black and white (but we also have a polychrome sixteenth as an insert) and richly illustrated (with ' Excellent graphics Sebastian Barcaroli).
The tome begins with a foreword by Gianni Brunoro and continues with a historical-critical essay, smooth and deep, Luca Boschi-rodatissimo trio of Leonardo Gori, Andrea Sani, who, in six chapters, traces the life and works of master Termoli inception to recent work. The three essayists then added a chapter with the analysis of the relationship between Jac and the society in which he lived and two with acute examination of its graphic language and verbal.
This is followed by a long interview with cartoonist and closes with three appendices References (edited by Franco Bellacci), which collect all his works (comic or otherwise).
An indispensable book on a Great World of Comics, to buy, read and enjoy.
