This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2006 Pietro Di Donato and John Fante Literary Award from The Grand Lodge of the Sons of Italy, New York State Robert Viscusi takes a comprehensive look at Italian American writing by exploring the connections between language and culture in Italian American experience and major literary texts. Italian immigrants, Viscusi argues, considered even their English to be a dialect of Italian, and therefore attempted to create an American English fully reflective of their historical, social, and cultural positions. This approach allows us to see Italian American purposes as profoundly situated in relation not only to American language and culture but also to Italian nationalist narratives in literary history as well as linguistic practice. Viscusi also situates Italian American writing within the "eccentric design" of American literature, and uses a multidisciplinary approach to read not only novels and poems, but also houses, maps, processions, videos, and other artifacts as texts.

Book excerpt: The Hidden Italy is the first bilingual English edition of some of the best Italian dialect poetry written over the past two centuries. The selection of more than four hundred poems in Piedmontese, Venetian, Milanese, Romagnol, Roman, Neapolitan, Sicilian, and other dialects illustrates the impressive variety of Italy's literary and linguistic civilization. Italian dialect literature originated in the Renaissance, after Tuscan had won its preeminence as the officially sanctioned Italian literary language. Despite the official victory of Tuscan, however, many writers consciously preferred and chose their own regional or local dialects as their medium of literary expression. This departure from Tuscan became a particularly significant phenomenon in the 18th century and has continued up to the present day. Much of the poetry is characterized by its realistic portrayals of the lower classes, their suffering from social injustice and poverty, the simplicity of their approach to life, particularly to earthy, sensual experience. Many poets use or create a language that is mimetic, expressive, often unabashedly obscene and irreverent. The dialect becomes the language of pain and anger, of biting satire or political rebellion, of humor and meditation. It is also the language which reveals the spirit of Italy's diverse regional civilizations. Haller's literal prose translations and commentaries are aimed at leading the reader back to the original text. and its intrinsic flavor. Thus the book has appeal and importance both for poetry lovers in general and for people with a special interest in Italian linguistic and literary culture.

Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated from the Italian by Andrew Frisardi. After World War II dialect poetry became widespread in Italy, withthe Milanese poet Franco Loi being one of its most prominent and masterful practitioners. In the 1970s, a leading critic called Loi "the most powerful poetic personality of recent years," and since then Loi has been considered one of the most distinguished living Italian poets. The present volume, translated and edited by Andrew Frisardi, provides a selection of Loi's shorter lyrical poems, drawn from the full span of his career, as well as an extraordinary interview with Loi in which he discusses poetry, religion, politics, writing in dialect, and the shaping experience of living through wartime Milan.

Download or read book The Renaissance in Italy written by Guido Ruggiero and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015 with total page 655 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a rich and exciting new way of thinking about the Italian Renaissance as both a historical period and a historical movement. Guido Ruggiero's work is based on archival research and new insights of social and cultural history and literary criticism, with a special emphasis on everyday culture, gender, violence, and sexuality. The book offers a vibrant and relevant critical study of a period too long burdened by anachronistic and outdated ways of thinking about the past. Familiar, yet alien; pre-modern, but suggestively post-modern; attractive and troubling, this book returns the Italian Renaissance to center stage in our past and in our historical analysis.

Download or read book Charlemagne in Italy written by Jane E. Everson and published by Boydell & Brewer. This book was released on 2023-01-24 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of the many depictions of Charlemagne in the Italian tradition of chivalric narratives in verse and prose. Chivalric tales and narratives concerning Charlemagne were composed and circulated in Italy from the early fourteenth to the mid-sixteenth century (and indeed subsequently flourished in forms of popular theatre which continue today). But are they history or fiction? Myth or fact? Cultural memory or deliberate appropriation? Elite culture or popular entertainment? Oral or written, performed or read? This book explores the many depictions of the Emperor in the Italian tradition of chivalric narratives in verse and prose. Beginning in the age of Dante with the earliest tales composed for Italians in the hybrid language of Franco-Italian, which draw inspiration from the French tradition of Charlemagne narratives, the volume considers the compositions of anonymous reciters of cantari and the prose versions of the Florentine Andrea da Barberino, before discussing the major literary contributions to the genre by Luigi Pulci, Matteo Maria Boiardo and Ludovico Ariosto. The focus throughout is on the ways in which the portrait of Charlemagne, seen as both Emperor and King of France, is persistently ambiguous, affected by the contemporary political situation and historical events such as invasion and warfare. He emerges through these texts in myriad guises, from positive and admirable to negative and despised.
