Koln, Taschen 2008, cm.30x42, formato albo. pp.592, centinaia di figure bn.e a colori nel testo, legatura editoriale in mz.tela. An in-depth exploration of Bergman’s complete works. On November 24, 2008 The Ingmar Bergman Archives editors Paul Duncan and Bengt Wanselius won the August Prize 2008 for the Best Non-Fiction Book published in Sweden. This is the most prestigious literary prize in Sweden, voted for by booksellers and librarians throughout the country. The complete works of Ingmar Bergman: an homage to one of the most esteemed film and theater artists of all time, began in cooperation with Bergman himself and made with full access to his archives. Since 1957, when he released The Seventh Seal and Wild Strawberries, Ingmar Bergman has been one of the leading figures in international cinema. In a career that spanned 60 years, he wrote, produced, and directed 50 films that defined how we see ourselves and how we interact with the people we love, in films like Persona, Scenes from a Marriage, and Fanny and Alexander. Before his death in 2007, Bergman gave TASCHEN and the Swedish publishing house Max Ström complete access to his archives at The Bergman Foundation, and permission to reprint his writings and interviews, many of which have never been seen outside of Sweden. Picture researcher Bengt Wanselius, who was Bergman’s photographer for 20 years, scoured photo archives all over Sweden, discovered previously unseen images from Bergman’s films, and selected unpublished images from the personal archives of many photographers. Text editor Paul Duncan gathered a team of Bergman experts as contributing editors—Peter Cowie and Bengt Forslund (for film/TV), and Ulla Åberg & Birgitta Steene (for theater)—who have researched and written a narrative that, for the first time, will combine all of Bergman’s working life in film and theater. Such is the depth of Bergman’s writings that most of the story is told in his own words.

Coll.Assonanze,11. “Una stanza tutta per sé” ha avuto e continua ad avere il valore di un manifesto: rivendicando il diritto della donna alla creatività, alla scrittura, Virginia Woolf pone di fatto in crisi il ruolo subordinato che ha avuto per secoli in un sistema dominato dai valori maschili. «Una stanza tutta per sé e cinquecento sterline annue di rendita sono le condizioni minime necessarie per una donna che scrive» afferma. E Marisa Bulgheroni, nel saggio che accompagna questa nostra edizione, magnificamente tradotta da J. Rodolfo Wilcock e Livio Bacchi Wilcock, così commenta tali condizioni: «La duplice richiesta ha una rivoluzionaria carica metaforica: se la donna è stata per secoli assente dalla storia, negata, rimossa, non potrà nascere a se stessa, alla propria parola, se non conquistando il diritto fisico, economico, alla vita sociale».
