Book Synopsis Authentic Italian by : Dina M. Di Maio
Download or read book Authentic Italian written by Dina M. Di Maio and published by . This book was released on 2018-03-19 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pizza. Spaghetti and meatballs. Are these beloved foods Italian or American? Italy declares pizza from Naples the only true pizza, but what about New York, New Haven, and Chicago pizza? The media says spaghetti and meatballs isn't found in Italy, but it exists around the globe. Worldwide, people regard pizza and spaghetti and meatballs as Italian. Why? Because the Italian immigrants to the United States brought their foodways with them 100 years ago and created successful food-related businesses. But a new message is emerging--that the only real Italian food comes from the contemporary Italian mainland. However, this ideology negatively affects Italian Americans, who still face discrimination that pervades the culture--from movies and TV to religion, academia, the workplace, and every aspect of their existence. In Authentic Italian, Italian-American food writer Dina M. Di Maio explores the history and food contributions of Italian immigrants in the United States and beyond. With thorough research and evidence, Di Maio proves the classic dishes like pizza and spaghetti and meatballs so beloved by the world are, indeed, Italian. Much more than a food history, Authentic Italian packs a sociopolitical punch and shows that the Italian-American people made Italian food what it is today. They and their food are real, true, and authentic Italian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What happens when an eccentric captain (who says “Poppycock!” all the time) gets tired of not having any more wars to fight and decides to create his own? It’s a special day in a small village on the hills. It’s the day of the mayor’s daughter wedding, and everyone is ready to celebrate. But suddenly ... A war submarine appears in the central square! Where did it come from?! How did it get there ... without any water?! It'll take a while to understand that the culprit is the eccentric captain who decided to declare war on the small hilltop village. What will this crazy situation lead to? What will happen when the captain (left alone in the depths of the sea for such a long time) starts to acquaint himself with the villagers? A humorous story with a pacifist background about the discovery of ourselves and the world around us. Funny, tender, surreal. A story to make you smile and reflect, talking about friendship, pastries, kisses and smiles. Because another life (… another way) is always possible. For all readers aged 6 to ... 100!

A fairy tale for everyone, with 13 watercolour and pastel illustrations. “He couldn’t actually fish, but he found it quite relaxing to sit there listening to the sound of the water flowing. He had always seen the water from below the surface. What a surprise it was to look at it from above, with the reflection of the sun, the scents in the air and the sounds of the countryside.” Also available in Italian and paperback.

Book Synopsis The Good Wife's Guide (Le Ménagier de Paris) by :
Download or read book The Good Wife's Guide (Le Ménagier de Paris) written by and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2012-09-15 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the closing years of the fourteenth century, an anonymous French writer compiled a book addressed to a fifteen-year-old bride, narrated in the voice of her husband, a wealthy, aging Parisian. The book was designed to teach this young wife the moral attributes, duties, and conduct befitting a woman of her station in society, in the almost certain event of her widowhood and subsequent remarriage. The work also provides a rich assembly of practical materials for the wife's use and for her household, including treatises on gardening and shopping, tips on choosing servants, directions on the medical care of horses and the training of hawks, plus menus for elaborate feasts, and more than 380 recipes. The Good Wife's Guide is the first complete modern English translation of this important medieval text also known as Le Ménagier de Paris (the Parisian household book), a work long recognized for its unique insights into the domestic life of the bourgeoisie during the later Middle Ages. The Good Wife's Guide, expertly rendered into modern English by Gina L. Greco and Christine M. Rose, is accompanied by an informative critical introduction setting the work in its proper medieval context as a conduct manual. This edition presents the book in its entirety, as it must have existed for its earliest readers. The Guide is now a treasure for the classroom, appealing to anyone studying medieval literature or history or considering the complex lives of medieval women. It illuminates the milieu and composition process of medieval authors and will in turn fascinate cooking or horticulture enthusiasts. The work illustrates how a (perhaps fictional) Parisian householder of the late fourteenth century might well have trained his wife so that her behavior could reflect honorably on him and enhance his reputation.

Book excerpt: Deals with the history of eyeglasses from their invention in Italy ca. 1286 to the appearance of the telescope three cent. later. "By the end of the 16th cent. eyeglasses were as common in western and central Europe as desktop computers are in western developed countries today." Eyeglasses served an important technological function at both the intellectual and practical level, not only easing the textual studies of scholars but also easing the work of craftsmen/small bus. During the 15th cent. two crucial developments occurred: the ability to grind convex lenses for various levels of presbyopia and the ability to grind concave lenses for the correction of myopia. As a result, eyeglasses could be made almost to prescription by the early 17th cent. Illus.
Book Synopsis I Am Your Air by : Antonio Romagnolo

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is a woman who writes. She recounts the last hours of consciousness of her man. Leaving nothing out, she describes the moments prior to an incident, particularly her bitter loneliness. These reflections recorded in a diary have a very clear purpose. In a succession of memories, Beatrise gives out precious information. She claims to be a foreigner, confesses to love Italy, and hints at how important this man was in her life. She does this by averring that she was his lover, his childhood friend, and hinting at certainly having been much more. She writes of having had a child with Marco, but also of being the stepmother of his son, a young man with whom she falls in love and who will soon enter the world of adolescence, the fruit of Marco's and Marianne's marriage. Marco was a correspondent for a famous magazine in Britain; Marianne teaches cello at a prestigious college in London, while Beatrise is a woman behind schedule, still in school, and she must work very hard to make ends meet. Theirs has been a troublesome love triangle, an exciting and dangerous game that laid bare human vulnerabilities, but also a golden opportunity to achieve love.

Download or read book The Bedroom written by Attilio Bertolucci and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Bilingual Editon. Translated from the Italian by Luigi Bonaffini. THE BEDROOM [La camera da letto] is Bertolucci's best-known work, so popular that the poet once read it to television viewers on a seven-hour program. It is a narrative poem that traces the history of the poet's family across seven generations with directness, precision and attention to everyday details, major events and fantastic surprises. Paolo Lagazzi writes in his introduction: "THE BEDROOM is a sort of a multi-novel, or a distillation of very diverse narrative forms and intuitions: a Bildungsroman and fairytale, an epoch novel, a novel-chronicle, a dramatic novel and a picaresque novel. An experimental work in the most authentic sense of the word..." "Nothing of time's essence escapes or is neglected by the author's ravenous sensibility, no less active in recording the multiple places in which existence rests (the city and the countryside, the sea and the plane, the Po river and the Maremma) in an exuberant display of forms, lights, perspectives, tonalities."—Luigi Ferrara

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses issues of broad cultural consequence by examining the work of three of Italy's most prominent living novelists, Umberto Eco, Vincenzo Consolo, and Antonio Tabucchi. The introductory chapter continues a discussion of some of the topics already broached in the author's Narrating Postmodern Time and Space (1997).

The book deals with fictions of very recent publication, many of which have been published after the turn of the millennium, filling important gaps in the critical bibliography. Close readings relate texts to their historical and cultural contexts, critiquing their ideology while preserving their Utopian moments.
