Lisbon's charm is legendary, but its vibrant 2,000-year history is not widely known, from its Roman legacy to its centuries under Moorish rule. Its journey from port town to Portugal's capital was not always smooth sailing--in 1755 the city was devastated by the largest earthquake ever to strike modern Europe, followed by a catastrophic tsunami and a six-day inferno that turned sand to glass.Barry Hatton unearths these forgotten memories in a vivid account of Lisbon's colourful past and present, bringing to life the 1147 siege during the Iberian reconquista, the assassination of the king, the founding of a republic and the darkness of a modern dictatorship. He reveals the rich, international heritage of Portugal's metropolis--the gateway to the Atlantic and the unrivalled Queen of the Sea.

Hace unos 50 años, la gente usaba cámaras de 35 mm e Instamatic del mismo modo que nosotros usamos teléfonos inteligentes en la era de Instagram y Snapchat. Tomaban fotos de lo que comían y bebían, de los lugares que visitaban en vacaciones y de las fiestas que celebraban. Inmortalizaron nacimientos de bebés, la bicicleta nueva de un niño o un televisor en color, el turismo en parques nacionales, las salidas a pescar, bodas, fiestas en la oficina, reuniones familiares y parejas bebiendo, cogidos de la mano, besándose o bailando. Estas ocasiones solo tenían sentido para quienes participaban, o tal vez ni siquiera para ellos. El objetivo último de The Anonymous Project es imaginar cuál fue su razón de ser, las emociones ocultas o los motivos que impulsaron a alguien hace décadas a tomar una fotografía.Todo comenzó con una simple compra en eBay. El cineasta Lee Shulman compró un conjunto de diapositivas Kodachrome de 35 mm de fotos familiares anónimas y quedó tan impresionado por ''el valor emocional de estos pedazos de vida'' que supo que debía tener más. Lanzó The Anonymous Project en 2017 y desde entonces ha reunido unas 700.000 imágenes por medio de donaciones o adquisiciones a vendedores de objetos usados.Esta colección presenta una selección de unas 150 imágenes tomadas entre las décadas de 1950 y 1970 que ofrecen una mirada íntima a las vidas de personas anónimas. Los lugares, fechas, fotógrafos y personas retratadas pueden ser desconocidos, pero estas imágenes y las fascinantes historias que contienen las conoce todo el mundo.

Invitado a exponer sus piezas de cerámica en el museo Nissim de Camondo, Edmund de Waal disfrutó del inesperado privilegio de adentrarse en uno de los palacetes más lujosos de París, antigua propiedad de una influyente familia sefardí. Construido por deseo del filántropo y coleccionista de arte Moïse de Camondo en 1 9 1 2, el edificio acoge desde entonces una extraordinaria colección de arte francés del siglo xviii. Sin embargo, como ocurrió a los antepasados de De Waal, los Ephrussi, también los Camondo se convirtieron pronto en blanco del antisemitismo. El infausto destino de este ilustre linaje sobrecogió a De Waal, que comenzó a escribir las cartas reunidas en este libro para rendir homenaje al recuerdo de una familia perdida y «contrarrestar el silencio del desdén». El resultado es una conmovedora y personalísima reflexión sobre el precio de la asimilación, la melancolía, los vínculos familiares, el arte, las vicisitudes de la historia y el valor de la memoria.

Espacio vital -publicado originalmente como Elbow Room en 1977- es el epítome de lo que James Alan McPherson significó para la literatura de su tiempo, que es también el nuestro. Ser un escritor negro en los Estados Unidos marcó tanto la escritura de McPherson como la percepción que de él tuvo el mundillo literario que le tocó vivir, un mundillo en el que, a golpe de codazos, supo abrirse un espacio vital donde permitirse ser auténtico. Los doce relatos que están recogidos en este volumen, con el que McPherson se convirtió en el primer autor afroamericano en recibir un premio Pulitzer en la categoría de ficción (en 1978), continúan apelando a un mundo extrañamente familiar de desigualdades e injusticias, de violencias e incomprensiones, pero también de lucha y reivindicación. Un ejemplo irrefutable de la destreza narrativa de McPherson, con un característico tono desenfadado que rebosa humor y que acerca las historias a la narrativa oral. Espacio vital sigue interpelándonos a pesar de los años transcurridos. McPherson, en su momento, asumió la responsabilidad de concebir estas inolvidables historias, nos corresponde ahora la responsabilidad de leerlas e intentar hacer del mundo que reflejan un lugar distinto y, si tenemos un poco de suerte, un lugar mejor.
