Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Decade of Italian Women, Vol. 1 of 2 Of such times, the most striking in this respect, as in so many others, is that fascinating dawn time of modern life, that ever wonderful renaissance season, when a fresh sap seemed to rush through the tissues of the European social systems, as they passed from their long winter into spring. And in the old mother land of European civilisation, where the new life was first and most vehemently felt, - in Italy, the most remarkable constellations of these attractive figures were produced. The women of Italy, at that period remarkable in different walks, and rich in various high gifts, form in truth a very notable phenomenon; and one sufficiently prevalent to justify the belief, that the general circum stances of that society favoured the production of such.

Book Synopsis Early Italian Love Stories (Classic Reprint) by : Una Taylor
Download or read book Early Italian Love Stories (Classic Reprint) written by Una Taylor and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-24 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Italian Love Stories But notwithstanding all that is lost in the re-telling, in a different language and at a different day, something remains, independent of both the old life and the old language, which the past has and can bestow even upon the unlettered readers of an alien country and an alien time, and that is the stories themselves, apart from their treatment and expression. Even retold their charm cannot, we are fain to hope, wholly evaporate. It is at all events possible to convey in some measure, by a simple recital of their contents, some idea of the positive genius for the picturesque in incident, episode, and surroundings, characteristic of the school to which they belong; of the blind intensity with which a single passion is painted, dominating and determining the living and dying of men and women of bygone generations; of the simple and undeviating directness of aim, good or evil, upon which the plots are constructed with such excellence of art that they seem a mere accident of instinct.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woman in Italy: From the Introduction of the Chivalrous Service of Love to the Appearance of the Professional Actress The fertile vigour of little Italian States from the thirteenth to the sixteenth century created a new world. Its momentum is still felt in literature, in art and in social life. It was then that woman began to emerge from the protective bondage which barbarism and social insecurity had rendered necessary. Now, all development has an economic basis, and the economic foundation for this exuberant vitality and novel freedom is to found in expanding commerce, regulated by the co-partnership of trade-associations. The intellectual energy of Italians, fostered by growing wealth and civic pride, culminated in that fine blossoming of life which we speak of as the High Renaissance. But most writers on the period have taught, and it has come to be generally credited, that the Renaissance was a time of exceptional moral depravity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Little Novels of Italy Not easily would you have found a girl more winning in a tender sort than Giovanna Scarpa of Verona at one and twenty, fair-haired and flushed, delicately shaped, tall and pliant, as she then was. She had to suffer her hours of ill report, but passes for near a saint now, in consequence of certain miracles and theophanies done on her account, which it is my business to declare; before those she was considered (if at all) as a girl who would certainly have been married three years ago if dowries had not been of moment in the matter. In a city of maids as pretty as they are modest - which no one will deny Verona to be - there may have been some whose charms in either kind were equal to hers, while their estate was better in accord; but the speculation is idle. Giovanna, flower in the face as she was, fit to be nosegay on any hearth, posy for any man's breast, sprang in a very lowly soil. Like a blossoming reed she shot up to her inches by Adige, and one forgot the muddy bed wondering at the slim grace of the shaft with its crown of yellow atop.

Download or read book Personal Effects written by Nancy Caronia and published by Fordham Univ Press. This book was released on 2014-10-15 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Celebrating one of the most important Italian American female authors of our time, Personal Effects offers a lucid view of Louise DeSalvo as a writer who has produced a vast and provocative body of memoir writing, a scholar who has enriched our understanding of Virginia Woolf, and a teacher who has transformed countless lives. More than an anthology, Personal Effects represents an author case study and an example for modern Italian American interdisciplinary scholarship. Personal Effects examines DeSalvo’s memoirs as works that push the boundaries of the most controversial genre of the past few decades. In these works, the author fearlessly explores issues such as immigration, domesticity, war, adultery, illness, mental health, sexuality, the environment, and trauma through the lens of gender, ethnic, and working-class identity. Alongside her groundbreaking scholarship, DeSalvo’s memoirs attest to the power and influence of this feminist Italian American writer.

Book Synopsis Italy and the Classical Tradition by : Bloomsbury Publishing
Download or read book Italy and the Classical Tradition written by Bloomsbury Publishing and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italy's original fascination with its cultural origins in Greece and Rome first created what is now known as 'the Classical tradition' - the pervasive influence of ancient art and thought on later times. In response to a growing interest in Classical reception, this volume provides a timely reappraisal of the Greek and Roman legacies in Italian literary history. There are fresh insights on the early study of Greek and Latin texts in post-classical Italy and reassessments of the significance attached to ancient authors and ideas in the Renaissance, as well as some innovative interpretations of canonical Italian authors, including Dante, Petrarch and Alberti, in the light of their ancient influences and models. The wide range of essays in this volume - all by leading specialists - should appeal to anyone with an interest in Italian literature or the Classical tradition. Italy's early fascination with its Hellenic and Roman origins created what is now called 'the classical tradition'.This book focuses on the role of the Greek and Latin languages and texts in Italian humanist thought and Renaissance poetry: how ancient languages were mastered and used, and how ancient texts were acquired and appropriated. Fresh perspectives on the influences of Aristotle, Plutarch and Virgil accompany innovative interpretations of canonical Italian authors - including Dante, Petrarch and Alberti - in the light of their classical models. Treatments of more specialized forms of writing, such as the cento and commentary, and some opening chapters on linguistic history also prompt reassessment of Renaissance perceptions of both Greece and Rome in relation to early modern Latin and vernacular culture. The collection as a whole highlights the importance of Italy's unique legacy of antiquity for the history of ideas and philology, as well as for literary history. The essays in this volume, all by leading specialists, are supplemented by a detailed introduction and a subject bibliography.
