«Vel Apolline Muto»
Este libro pretende reconstruir el paradigma estético que subyace a las producciones literarias y artísticas de la Antigüedad tardía (s. IV-VI d. C.), tan poliédricas y sofisticadas como tradicionalmente malentendidas. Propone para ello un nuevo modelo omnicomprensivo de análisis cultural, basado en tres pilares fundamentales. El primero consiste en la adopción de un enfoque multidisciplinar, que toma en consideración la mayor parte de las manifestaciones culturales de la época: literatura, urbanismo, filosofía, arte, religión, moda, propaganda, etc. El segundo conlleva un empleo crítico y sistemático de los principales marcos teóricos de nuestro tiempo - deconstrucción, psicoanálisis, polisistemas, etc. -, cuyas novedosas perspectivas aportan una comprensión más rica y profunda de dichas manifestaciones. Finalmente, un extremo rigor filológico preside el tratamiento de los textos. Este nuevo modelo, válido para dar cuenta de una gran variedad de fenómenos, se ensaya mediante su aplicación sistemática a la obra de Sidonio Apolinar, uno de los autores más representativos de la estética tardoantigua. De este modo, se consigue un equilibrio entre la especulación teórica y su aplicación analítica, lo que garantiza la fiabilidad de los resultados. Se trata, en definitiva, de un trabajo pionero y único en su género, llamado a abrir nuevos caminos en el estudio de la Antigüedad tardía.

Vel d'Hiv Raid
Beginning in the early morning hours of July 16, 1942, and lasting for two days, the French police went beyond Nazi ordinances and took it upon themselves to arrest and imprison more than 13,000 Jews at a Paris sporting arena, the Vélodrome d'Hiver. For most of the Jews, this detention without water, food, or sleep was the first horrific step toward death in the concentration camps. Using recently opened police files, Maurice Rajsfus details the internal organization of the police, showing the mechanisms of this raid in particular and of raids in general, making the book an indispensable micro-history of the Holocaust. A uniquely detailed study of a notorious incident of cooperation between xenophobic and anti-Semitic forces. Shocking, large compilation of published articles in the collaborationist press that promoted social discord and hatred of Jews, distorted or obscured the raids on immigrant Jews in Paris under Nazi occupation, and used emotional appeals to nationalism to justify persecution. A companion piece to Rajsfus's Operation Yellow Star / Black Thursday (DoppelHouse Press, 2017), The Vél d'Hiv Raid, is the only contemporary analysis of the roundup, its precursors and its aftermath, including witness and police reports, shocking excerpts from the collaborationist press, and speeches by contemporary French politicians whose official apology is still not complete and terribly overdue. With a foreword by Israeli activist and author Michel Warschawski. Maurice Rajsfus (b. 1928), a former investigative journalist for Le Monde, survived the Vél d'Hiv roundup. He has written thirty books, including many examining the Vichy regime and its legacy in French police culture. Several of his books about his World War II experiences are the basis of a YA comic published by Tartamudo editions, as well as a theatrical production and a film. He lives in Paris with his family.
