«GADDA The pain
of knowledge» by Franco Gàbici
ISBN 88-86792-40-9 pp.207 Euro 15,00
Carlo Emilio Gadda, one of the most interesting twentieth-century Italian writer,
was a civil engineer, and yet up to now there haven’t been any studies on the
influence of his scientific background on his fiction. Franco Gàbici produces
the first analysis, from a scientific point of view, of all the novels by this
unusual author.

«Essay on Ghilgames» by Claudio
Saporetti
ISBN 88-86792-45-X pp.208, Euro 20,00
The author has already translated and edited Ghilgamesh (Il Ghilgamesh -
Simonelli Editore), the ancient Sumerian poems found in the Assurbanipal’s
Palace (7th century BC) at Niniveh. It is the most recent, the most exhaustive
Italian translation with comments of the Ghilgamesh poems, and the first one
coming out from the original twelve tables in cuneiform inscription. Now Claudio
Saporetti gives you the opportunity to take a deeper look at these poems with
this collection of his essays on Ghilgamesh. Professor Saporetti teaches
Assyriology at the University of Pisa in Italy.
