History is the most boring subject in school. Don’t believe me? Ask any student. Or listen to the lead story in Newsweek’s combined issue of March 28 & April 4, 2011: “How to Get Smart Again.” If we as teachers want to make history a quality subject we have to make it relevant and interesting. That’s why I wrote The Murder of History: Why Students Hate History and What to Do About It.

Depuis trop longtemps on confond la magie avec les prestiges des charlatans, avec les hallucinations des malades, et avec les crimes de certains malfaiteurs exceptionnels. La magie est en fait la science des anciens mages ; et la religion chrétienne, qui a imposé silence aux oracles menteurs, et fait cesser tous les prestiges des faux dieux, révère elle-même ces mages qui vinrent de l'Orient, guidés par une étoile, pour adorer le Sauveur du monde dans son berceau.

"Je hais les voyages et les explorateurs", toute première phrase de l'ouvrage, affirme sans détour son rejet de l'exotisme comme porte vers le sensationnel.

Comment se positionner face à l'autre, face à des cultures aux structures si différentes ? Quelles sont les valeurs intrinsèques de l'Homme ?

Students hate history. That’s because 95 percent of high school and college history students don’t know what they are supposed to be learning. History is not an academic subject; it’s a tool for life. If history teachers knew what they were doing, they’d be teaching their students to “think like a pirate". Which is exactly what this book does.

Costruito dal Centro internazionale di studi Primo Levi, "Auschwitz, città tranquilla" ci offre dieci suoi testi narrativi, incorniciati da due poesie: dodici punti di vista, inaspettati e avvincenti, sulla maggiore tragedia collettiva del Novecento. Nel segno di un paradossale titolo d'autore, la "città tranquilla" del campo di sterminio si apre, in questa antologia, in ogni direzione: quella fantastica, nel trittico di racconti distopici e "tedeschi" costituito da Angelica Farfalla, Versamina e La bella addormentata nel frigo.

Februar 1944 bis Januar 1945: Primo Levi beschreibt das Jahr, das er in Auschwitz verbracht hat. Es ist eines der eindrücklichsten Zeugnisse des Holocaust. Durch Levis kühlen Blick des Naturwissenschaftlers auf das Vernichtungslager tritt der alltägliche Horror umso deutlicher hervor. Er schildert, wie der Kampf um das Überleben zum einzigen Ziel eines jeden Tages wurde und wie jeder Einzelne immer wieder auf dieselben Fragen zurückgeworfen wurde.
