Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, we present a compilation of short stories by the Italian writer Giovanni Verga, one of the greatest exponents of the literary movement of verismo, which emerged in Italy at the end of the 19th century and was characterized by the precise and objective description of social, political, and cultural reality. Verga's stories portray life and culture in southern Italy, particularly in Sicily, where he was born and raised. His works are deeply rooted in local culture and traditions, and explore themes such as poverty, injustice, love, and the struggle for life. This collection includes some of Verga's most famous and acclaimed short stories, such as Rosso Malpelo, The She-Wolf (La lupa), Nedda, Pentolaccia, Rustic Chivalry (Cavalleria rusticana), The Robbery (La roba), War of Saints (Guerra di Santi), Liberty (Libertà), The Story of Saint Joseph's Donkey (Storia dell'asino di S. Giuseppe), Malaria, Jeli the Shepherd (Jeli il pastore), and The Lover of Gramigna (L'amante di Gramigna) and Another Flood (Un'altra inondazione). Each of these stories offers a penetrating insight into the life and emotions of ordinary people, showing the richness and complexity of the human experience. With his precise and realistic prose, he offers a vivid and moving portrait of life in southern Italy at the end of the 19th century, and his work continues to be a lasting influence on Italian and world literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Italian Wedding Two feuding families, two love stories - and a lot of delicious Italian food. Pieta Martinelli's sister is getting married. Since she is a bridal designer it falls to her to make the wedding gown. But Pieta is distracted by a series of unanswered questions. Why is her father feuding with another Italian in the neighbourhood? Why is her mother so faded and sad? And could the man she's always held a torch for really be getting married to someone else? As Pieta stitches and beads her sister's wedding gown she uncovers the secrets that have made her family what it is and that stand between her and happiness. THE ITALIAN WEDDING is a feast of food and love. It's about discovering who your parents really are. And who you really want to be. The Villa Girls Four friends, a sun-drenched escape, and a holiday that will change everything... THE VILLA GIRLS is the story of four young women who decide that wherever they are in the world and whatever they're doing they'll meet every few years for a holiday together somewhere sunny. Despite life taking them in very different directions, their snatched days in the sun in little hidden villas are crucial to them all. Escape, celebration, recovery - over the years the holidays change their lives. Rosie was always the odd one out - initially only invited as the others felt sorry for her, but it seems that in the end, she might be the one whose life is touched the most by her villa days. For it's there that she meets Enzo. The eldest son of an olive oil dynasty in southern Italy, he is being groomed to take over one day as head of the family. Rosie and Enzo have a holiday romance that seems set to become something more serious until she discovers he is not entirely what he seems. Years later they meet again and this time Rosie must decide how much she is prepared to compromise for the sake of love... The Food of Love Cookery School In the sun-drenched Sicilian hills, four women learn the lessons of a lifetime at the Food of Love Cookery School. In a remote Sicilian mountain town, four women arrive at a cookery school, each at a turning point in their lives. Moll is a foodie and an exhausted working mum on the holiday of a lifetime. Tricia, a top London lawyer is taking a break from the demands of her job and her family. Valerie, consumed by grief following the death of her partner, is trying to figure out how to live a life without him. And recently divorced Poppy has come to Sicily to learn about the place that her grandfather was born before emigrating to Australia. Luca Amore runs the school, using the recipes passed down to him by generations of Amore women. He expects this course to be much like all the others - but as sparks fly, friendships are made and secrets are shared. And for each of them nothing will ever be the same.

Book Synopsis Italy to Argentina by : Tullio Pagano
Download or read book Italy to Argentina written by Tullio Pagano and published by Amherst College Press. This book was released on 2023-04 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Italy to Argentina: Travel Writing and Emigrant Colonialism, Tullio Pagano examines Italian emigration to Argentina and the Rio de la Plata region through the writings of Italian economists, poets, anthropologists, and political activists from the 1860s to the beginning of World War I. He shows that Italians played an important role in the so-called conquest of the desert, which led to Argentina's economic expansion and the suppression and killing of the remaining indigenous population. Many of the texts he discusses have hardly been studied before: from Paolo Mantegazza's real and imaginary travel narratives at the time of Italian unification to Gina Lombroso's descriptions of Brazil, Uruguay, and Argentina in early 1900s. Pagano questions the apparent opposition between diaspora and empire and argues that there was a continuity between the "peaceful conquest" though spontaneous emigration envisioned by Italian liberal intellectuals at the turn of the century and the military colonialism of Italian Nationalists and Fascists. He shows that racist assumptions about Native American and "creole" cultures were present in the work of progressive authors like Edmondo de Amicis, whose writings became enormously popular in Argentina, and anarchist militants and legal scholars like Pietro Gori, who founded the first revolutionary unions in Buenos Aires while remaining dangerously attached to Cesare Lombroso's theories of atavism and primitivism. The "growl" of Italian emigrants about to land in Argentina, found in Dino Campana's poem Buenos Aires (1907), echoes throughout Pagano's book, and encourages the reader to explore the apparent oxymoron of "emigration colonialism" and the role of literature and public media in the formation of our social imaginary. "Italy to Argentina shows meticulous bibliographic work and is attentive to both fundamental and marginal texts in a double task, on the one hand, of textual analysis, and on the other, of rescuing and recovering a corpus forgotten by critics even when it is highly significant. It is, then, a research work that addresses the Italian emigration to Argentina from an original point of view, linking texts that have not been studied or that have not been sufficiently analyzed." --Fernanda Elisa Bravo Herrera, author of Huellas y recorridos de una utopía: La emigración italiana en la Argentina "From Boccadasse to La Boca. Tullio Pagano complexifies the relationship between 'diaspora' and 'colonialism' in the context of Italian migration to South America. In six thematic chapters, Pagano explores the thought of authors on and off the canon. Such diverse voices lead the reader to a new approach to the study of emigrant colonialism and creole studies, towards a deeper, more realistic understanding of the 'conquest of the desert' that Italian emigrants wanted to perform in Argentina."--Giuseppe Gazzola, Stony Brook University
