  • Mafia Motifs in Andrea Camilleri's Detective
    MAFIA MOTIFS IN ANDREA CAMILLERI’S DETECTIVE MONTALBANO NOVELS: FROM THE CULTURE AND BREAKDOWN OF OMERTÀ TO MAFIA AS A SCAPEGOAT FOR THE FAILURE OF STATE Adriana Nicole Cerami A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures (Italian). Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Dino S. Cervigni Amy Chambless Roberto Dainotto Federico Luisetti Ennio I. Rao © 2015 Adriana Nicole Cerami ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Adriana Nicole Cerami: Mafia Motifs in Andrea Camilleri’s Detective Montalbano Novels: From the Culture and Breakdown of Omertà to Mafia as a Scapegoat for the Failure of State (Under the direction of Ennio I. Rao) Twenty out of twenty-six of Andrea Camilleri’s detective Montalbano novels feature three motifs related to the mafia. First, although the mafia is not necessarily the main subject of the narratives, mafioso behavior and communication are present in all novels through both mafia and non-mafia-affiliated characters and dialogue. Second, within the narratives there is a distinction between the old and the new generations of the mafia, and a preference for the old mafia ways. Last, the mafia is illustrated as the usual suspect in everyday crime, consequentially diverting attention and accountability away from government authorities. Few critics have focused on Camilleri’s representations of the mafia and their literary significance in mafia and detective fiction. The purpose of the present study is to cast light on these three motifs through a close reading and analysis of the detective Montalbano novels, lending a new twist to the genre of detective fiction.

Matteuccia becomes a symbol of female independence, and as such should be stopped with the weapon of aridity and antidiabolic crusade.

  • BOOK REVIEWS Federica Colleoni E Francesca Parmeggiani, a Cura Di
    BOOK REVIEWS Federica Colleoni e Francesca Parmeggiani, a cura di. Forme, volti e linguaggi della violenza nella cultura italiana. Lonato del Garda, Brescia: Edibom Edizioni Letterarie, 2012. Pp. 260. Questo volume curato da Federica Colleoni e Francesca Parmeggiani raccoglie sedici saggi, tutti sulla rappresentazione della violenza nel cinema e nella letteratura italiana, eccetto il saggio di Sebastiano Ferrari, incentrato sulla canzone autoriale e sui modi in cui Lucio Dalla, Giorgio Gaber e Fabrizio De André hanno denunciato la violenza politica degli anni Settanta. Le curatrici hanno messo insieme efficacemente saggi che presentano, da una vasta gamma di prospettive, diversi aspetti del macro-argomento della violenza: tensione politica, violenza di genere, trauma, distruzione ambientale e criminalità solo per nominarne alcuni. Il volume propone un itinerario che, sebbene in maniera discontinua e con un’attenzione soprattutto al XX secolo, porta il lettore dal XVI secolo ai giorni nostri. Il primo saggio di Stefano Ciammaroni spiega che nei film neorealisti la violenza fascista viene mostrata in maniera plateale ed esteticamente curata così da ispirare negli spettatori un sentimento antifascista unitario e giustificare la violenza partigiana come necessaria per la salvezza del paese. Il saggio si concentra sul documentario Giorni di gloria (1945) realizzato da Visconti, De Santis, Pagliero e Serandei che, partendo da materiale di repertorio e scene ricostruite realisticamente, “presenta una lettura agiografica delle capacità del movimento partigiano di sopportare il martirio e reagire simultaneamente al nemico con equivalente ferocia” (18). I saggi di Chiara Borroni, Francesco Rosetti e Fabio Benincasa si occupano di cinema degli anni Sessanta e Settanta. Borroni si concentra sul cinema d’autore e sulla rappresentazione dello spazio domestico durante il boom economico.

  • Reviews of Books and Audiobooks in Italian
    Reviews of books and audiobooks in Italian Susanna Agnelli (1922-2009), Vestivamo alla marinara, 231pp. (1975). Susanna Agnelli's paternal grandfather founded the Fiat company in 1899. She was thus a member of one of the richest families in Italy. Vestivamo alla marina is an autobiography beginning in childhood and ending with Agnelli's marriage in 1945. The title \We dressed like sailors" refers to the sailor-suits her parents made all the children wear, and gives little hint of what the book is really about. It begins with the sailor-suits and her upbringing under the stern eye of British nanny \Miss Parker", but before long Italy has joined the Axis and the young \Suni", as Susanna was known, is volunteering as a nurse on ships bringing injured soldiers from Africa back to Italy. As a war memoir it is fascinating, including for example an account of the utter confusion and chaos created by the Armistice of September 8, 1943 (Suni was in Rome at the time). Judging by her own account, Suni was a very courageous young woman, but it is only fair to point out that her war experience was highly atypical because of her access to wealth and power. In the middle of the war, she takes a ski vacation in Switzerland. When she and her brother Gianni need a car in Firenze, hoping to get to Perugia where they can hide out in one of their grandfather's numerous houses and await the allied advance, as Agnellis they have only to go to the local Fiat headquarters and they're set.
