PERSONALITY, SPEECH and CURIO 78S SHOLOM ALEICHEM [Author] PERSONALITY, SPEECH and CURIO 78s SHOLOM ALEICHEM [author]. Peres- yaslav, Ukraine, 1859-New York City, 1916. Known as “the Jewish Mark Twain”, Aleichem (born Sholem Rabinovich) was the most famous author of Yiddish literature, in- cluding plays, short stories, novels and child- ren’s tales. Representative works have been translated into most languages. In 1964, the musical Fiddler on the Roof was based on his writing and, in particular, his character Tevye, the Milkman. Aleichem made one record, not assigned a matrix number as it was apparently originally a private recording or a test. It includes two readings separated by a divider band. At the end of the first, the recording engineer can be faintly heard say- ing, “Is that all ya got?”. Following Aleichem’s SHOLOM ALEICHEM death, it was evidently thought worthwhile to publish it, although copies of it are indeed few and far between. 1382. 10” Purple Victor 60144.

During that decade he was also appointed to administrative posts, both theatrical and academic. In 1929 he directed opera for the first time, and during the 1930s established a reputation as an operatic director in Germany and beyond. A strong oppo- nent of Nazism, he left Germany in 1933 and did not return until 1945. Together with John Christie and the conductor Fritz Busch, Ebert created the Glyndebourne Festival Opera in 1934. Ebert remained its artistic director until 1959, though productions were suspended during the Second World War. In the 1930s and 40s Ebert helped establish a national conserva- tory in Turkey, where he and his family lived from 1940 to 1947.

    POPE JOHN PAUL I’S CRITIQUE OF TRILUSSA’S FAITH A TRANSLATOR’S DEFENSE JOHN DUVAL On August 26, 1978, Cardinal Albino Luciani was elected Pope at Rome and chose as his papal, public name John Paul I. Almost immediately Edizioni Messaggero published a volume of the new Pope’s essays as they had appeared earlier in the Messagero di Sant'Antonio magazine. The title was Illustrissimi, for the illustrious saints and scholars, fictional characters and writers (such as Mark Twain, Francesco Petrarca, and Gioachino Belli) whom Cardinal Luciani had addressed and imaginatively conversed with in each of these essays. On the night of September 28, 1978, most unexpectedly, Pope John Paul I died. Before the year was out, William Weaver in the United States completed his English translation of Illustrissimi and published it with Little Brown. In February of 1982, Bill Quinn, my friend and fellow medievalist at the University of Arkansas, learning that I was beginning to translate the poetry of Trilussa, a Roman dialect poet of the first half of the twentieth century, introduced me to Illustrissimi by giving me a copy of the book in English. I was delighted and felt vicariously honored that Trilussa, my poet, was one of only three Italian poets whom the Pope, that is, Albino Luciani, addressed in his book. The other two were Petrarca and Gioachino Belli, a poet who, like Trilussa, wrote not in standard Italian, but in Romanesco, the modern dialect of Rome. But Luciani’s essay, “To Trilussa: In the Heart of the Mystery,” bothered me, too.

  • Trilussa E Scarpetta
    TRILUSSA E SCARPETTA doardo Scarpetta debuttò a Roma al teatro Metastasio, ora spa­ E rito, nel 1877. Poi con i superstiti comici del e< San Carlino » - erano già spenti Antonio Petito, il famoso « Pulcinella », e Pasquale Altavilla - egli tornò nella Capitale l'anno appresso reci­ tando al Quirino. Dal 1890, o poco dopo, lo Scarpetta s'insediava al teatro Valle e d'allora sistematicamente dava tre mesi di rappresen­ tazioni all'anno, prediletto e acclamato dal pubblico romano e da quello cosmopolita che si riversava a Roma. In questi periodi Edoardo Scarpetta faceva trasportar da Napoli cocchio e cavalli per la sua passeggiata al Corso, additato dai romani con compiacenza, e faceva trasportare anche grosse casse di pasta ali­ mentare di Gragnano che divorava, da buon napolitano, quotidia­ namente. Un giorno, al principio di questo secolo, il conte Andrea Sola, mecenate lombardo, scrittore, deputato e soprattutto appassionato del teatro invitò a colazione nel suo soggiorno romano alcune signore e alcuni artisti, fra cui la principessa di Gravina, Trilussa e Scarpetta. Il nostro Trilussa era già celebre allora, soprattutto per il poe­ metto Er Serrajo che l'editore Voghera gli aveva stampato nel 1903. Come è noto Er Serrajo è suddiviso in tre parti: Er Comizzio - La Ribbejione - La fine dello Sciopero. Naturalmente, a cena compiuta, Trilussa fu invitato a recitare qualche sua poesia ed egli disse la prima parte del Serraglio, il Co­ mizio. Appena terminato, gli astanti invitarono il comico napolitano a dir qualcosa di suo e Scarpetta dichiarò che avrebbe recitato di nuovo il Comizio di Trilussa ma ..

  • Censorship and Literature in Fascist Italy'
    H-Italy Valisa on Bonsaver, 'Censorship and Literature in Fascist Italy' Review published on Saturday, March 1, 2008 Guido Bonsaver. Censorship and Literature in Fascist Italy. Toronto: University of Toronto Press, 2007. 405 pp. $80.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-8020-9301-1; $35.00 (paper), ISBN 978-0-8020-9496-4. Reviewed by Silvia Valisa (Department of Foreign Languages and Literatures, San Francisco State University) Published on H-Italy (March, 2008) A Passion for Detail: Mussolini, Fascism, and Censorship The interest in Fascist editorial and ideological politics has produced some excellent work in the last decade, including Giorgio Fabre's L'elenco: censura fascista, editoria e autori ebrei (1998), devoted to the regime's racial politics; as well as Ruth Ben-Ghiat'sFascist Modernities: Italy, 1922-1945 (2001) and Marla S. Stone's The Patron State: Culture and Politics in Fascist Italy (1998), both of which address state-culture relations during the Fascist regime. Guido Bonsaver's new volume, Censorship and Literature in Fascist Italy, adds to these an idiosyncratic, thoroughly researched, and very readable portrait of what it meant to be a writer and/or a cultural operator during the ventennio. (In 2005, Bonsaver also edited, together with Robert Gordon, the proceedings of a conference, Culture, Censorship and the State in Twentieth Century Italy.) As this new monograph cogently confirms, "Fascist censorship was not a monolithic and tightly coordinated machine of repression" (p. 5). Bonsaver illustrates the extent to which censorship needs to be contextualized, historicized, and examined from multiple standpoints to call into question the notion of absolute consistency that is often ascribed to "censorship" as a phenomenon.

  • Fans, Romans, Countrymen: Soccer Fandom and Civic Identity in Contemporary Rome
    International Journal of Communication 5 (2011), 1990–2013 1932–8036/20111990 Fans, Romans, Countrymen: Soccer Fandom and Civic Identity in Contemporary Rome MATTHEW GUSCHWAN Indiana University In Italy, football (soccer) fandom is an important site on which to construct and perform civic identity. Based on a constructivist, communication-oriented understanding of identity, this article uses ethnographic data to illustrate how Roman soccer fans construct civic identity through various communicative forms, such as verbal performance and visual display. The essay draws from museum studies scholarship to highlight the role of fan-created displays in the construction of fan identities. Ultimately, the fans’ notions of place and local identity emerge through these discursive practices. In mass media fan cultures, geographic boundaries tend to recede as nationally or globally dispersed fans have virtually simultaneous access to media texts and spatially transcendent online forums in which to socialize. In most cases, the physical proximity of the viewer to the setting of a text seems trivial, if not irrelevant. Conversely, sports fan culture remains firmly rooted in notions of locality. Despite global trends of deterritorialization that weaken the “spatial connections of cultural practices, identities, products, and communities” (Giulianotti & Robertson, 2009, p. 34), the local team, be it at the high school, college, or professional level, always plays against the team from over there—down the street, in the next city, across state lines, or from another continent (Dunning, 1999, p. 5; Giulianotti & Robertson, 2009). As various scholars (including Kraszewski, 2008; Maguire, 2005; Williams, 1994) have argued, sports can symbolize local identity. Teams at all levels claim to represent local community as they compete for pride and glory at the expense of their geographically othered adversaries.

  • A Citizen Sociolinguistic Case Study of the Roman Dialect
    Ideologies of Personhood: A Citizen Sociolinguistic Case Study of the Roman Dialect Andrea R. Leone University of Pennsylvania The status and role of Italy’s dialetti (dialects) in contemporary Italian society are contested among both citizens and sociolinguists, and their nuanced uses have begun to circulate (with commentary) around social media. This report adopts a citizen sociolinguistic approach (Rymes & Leone, this volume) to analyze a single controversial case about the Roman dialect via YouTube and Facebook, drawing on social media users’ metacommentary and recontextualizations (Rymes, 2012) of an interview with two young women at the beach. Rather than attempting to identify static and isolated characteristics of the Roman dialect based on this interview, this report analyzes the social values and linguistic characteristics that citizen sociolinguists attribute to these young women’s particular ways of speaking, acting, and being. uring one of the hottest weeks of the year in July of 2010, an Italian journalist and a camera crew at Ostia beach (near Rome, Italy) approached a bikini-clad teenage girl for an interview, asking “Fa caldo?” (“Is it hot?”), and proceeded Dto do a 52-second interview with the girl (Debora, right, Figure 1) and her friend (Romina, left, Figure 1) about how one tolerates the heat at the beach (nicves1992, 2010). They told him that they keep cool and comfortable with beer and push-pops, as well as the occasional shower in order to keep from getting itchy from the salt water. The video of the interview was broadcast on the station’s news channel and quickly went viral on YouTube after having been subtitled with exaggeratedly “correct” Italian (see Figure 3).

  • Corriere Della Sera”
    Grazia Deledda Fabulist on Newspapers: The Experience with “Corriere della Sera” Giambernardo Piroddi University of Sassari Proceeding of the AATI Conference in Cagliari [Italy], June 20-25, 2018. Section Literature. AATI Online Working Papers. ISSN: 2475-5427. All rights reserved by AATI. ABSTRACT: The aim of this article is to contextualize the journalistic apprenticeship of Grazia Deledda inside the polarity represented on the one hand by ethnographic writings published in the magazine «Rivista delle tradizioni popolari», and on the other hand by her novelistic production intended for publication in the Italian newspaper «Corriere della Sera»: a perfect parabola that – almost paradoxically – shows us how the author moves from writing about popular traditions in a magazine (the place of literary productions for leisure and entertainment) to inventing fantasy tales within the pages of a newspaper (the place par excellence of chronicles). This writing activity is bound to the request from newspaper’s management of any type of short stories or tales: it was the rule, rather than the exception, from the starting in the second half of 1800s, when Italian publishing market is ever-expanding. All these aspects are well documented in Deledda - «Corriere della Sera» correspondence (1909-1936), kept at the Historical Archive of the newspaper in Milan. The archive consists of one hundred sixty-six epistolary communications, some of which are analyzed in this article to document better nature and purposes of Deledda’s journalistic production. Keywords: Elzeviro, ethnographic, journalism, newspaper, epistolary, faire-tales bestiary, chronicle, fiction Grazia Deledda’s writing activity in the greatest Italian daily newspaper, «Corriere della Sera», covers a time-frame extending from 1909 to 1936.

Regina Psaki My dissertation examines the ethical engagement ofpolitical invective poetry in thirteenth- and fourteenth-century Italy. Modem criticism tends to treat medieval invective as a playfully subversive but marginal poetic game with minimal ethical weight. Instead, I aim to restore these poetic productions to their original context: the history, law, and custom ofTuscan cities.
