  • Maltese Colonial Identity: Latin Mediterranean Or British Empire?
    The British Colonial Experience 1800-1964 The Impact on Maltese Society Edited by Victor Mallia-Milanes 2?79G ~reva Publications Published under the auspices of The Free University: Institute of Cultural Anthropology! Sociology of Development Amsterdam 10 HENRY FRENDO Maltese Colonial Identity: Latin Mediterranean or British Empire? Influenced by history as much as by geography, identity changes, or develops, both as a cultural phenomenon and in relation to economic factors. Behaviouristic traits, of which one may not be conscious, assume a different reality in cross-cultural interaction and with the passing of time. The Maltese identity became, and is, more pronounced than that of other Mediterranean islanders from the Balearic to the Aegean. These latter spoke varieties of Spanish and Greek in much the same way as the inhabitants of the smaller islands of Pantalleria, Lampedusa, or Elba spoke Italian dialects and were absorbed by the neighbouring larger mainlands. The inhabitants of modern Malta, however, spoke a language derived from Arabic at the same time as they practised the Roman Catholic faith and were exposed, indeed subjected, to European iDfluences for six or seven centuries, without becoming integrated with their closest terra firma, Italy.l This was largely because of Malta's strategic location between southern Europe and North Mrica. An identifiable Maltese nationality was thus moulded by history, geography, and ethnic admixture - the Arabic of the Moors, corsairs, and slaves, together with accretions from several northern and southern European races - from Normans to Aragonese. Malta then passed under the Knights of St John, the French, and much more importantly, the British.

  • Houses in Merch~Nts Street, V Alletta
    HOUSES IN MERCH~NTS STREET, V ALLETTA by VICTOR F. DENARO Merchants Street, stretching from the Auberge d'Italie at one end to the Infermeria or old hospital at the other, is one of the busiest thoroughfares of Valletta. Every morning the street between St. John Street and Old Theatre Street is crowded with buyers at the stalls set up by vendors of every des­ cription of goods. At the left hand of the corner formed by Merchants Street and St. Lucia Street is what may be termed the cereal and potato exchange where brokers transact a considerable volume of business with exporters of potatoes and importers of cereals, whilst the opposite side of the road is oc­ cupied by importers of provisions and foodstuffs and their brokers. Near the Monte di Pietil (1) gold and jewellery changes hands, and the Valletta Market is only about fifty yards away. All these factors combine to make the street a hive of activity during the forenoon. At the head of Merchants Street, or Strada San Giacomo as it was known during the rule of the Order, opposite the Auberge d'Italie, stands the Palazzo Parisio at present used as the General Post Offi<;e. The site was originally occupied by two houses, one belonging to Chev. Fra Michel Fonterme dit la Chiesa and the other by Francesco This. These were purchased by the Bali of Manosca, Comm. Fra Giovanni di Ventimiglia, of the Langue of Provence, and formed part of an usufruct which he instituted in 1608 in favour of those members of his family who at any time might be serving in the Order (2).

  • Heritage Malta (Hm) Annual Report 2014
    HERITAGE MALTA (HM) ANNUAL REPORT 2014 CAPITAL WORKS An international design competition was launched to select the design for MUZA , involving the relocation of the National Museum of Fine Arts (NATIONAL MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS) from Admiralty House, South Street to the Auberge d’Italie, following which the chosen professional multi-disciplinary team was commissioned the project. An exhibition with all entries, incorporating also the newly-acquired Sciortino sculpture ‘Speed’, was set-up in October at the Auberge. This project is being proposed for ERDF funding. In the meantime preparations are underway for the necessary permits and tender documents. In collaboration with the Office of the Prime Minister, two design contests were launched to select the designs of national monuments for former Presidents Prof Guido de Marco and Dr Censu Tabone, Prime Minister Perit Dom Mintoff (Castille Square, Valletta), and an ‘ Artistic Statement to the Maltese Republic ’ (end of Republic Street, Valletta). The monuments for Prof Guido de Marco and Dr Censu Tabone were inaugurated in September and December in Valletta and St Julian’s respectively, whereas works are progressing well to complete the remaining monuments/artistic statement in 2015. Works also continued with the restoration of the main façade and the structural consolidation of the turrets of the Malta Maritime Museum . Restoration works also commenced in the loggia around the lower courtyard of the National Museum of Natural History in Mdina and on Bighi ’s historic smoking shed.

  • The Sacra Infermeria, the Knights' Hospital at Valletta
    MALTESE HISTORY C. Some of the Order’s Projects in Malta Form 3 1 Unit C.1 - Valletta and the Three Cities H F E B D C A G Grand Harbour c. 1750. 1. Valletta in the 17th and 18th centuries To the original group of public buildings in Valletta the Order added in the 17th and 18th centuries, a theatre, a library, a custom house and a municipal palace for the Università of Valletta and the Three Cities. The Law Courts (Castellania) were rebuilt and the Church of St John was decorated by the paintings and sculpture of the Neapolitan artist Mattia Preti. During the 18th century new buildings in Valletta had a more worldly use. In 1732 the Manoel Theatre was built (the oldest standing theatre in Europe today), a library and warehouses along the Valletta Grand Harbour waterfront. Grand Master Pinto’s warehouses (known as Pinto Wharf) were built in the second half of the 18th century – today these have become the Valletta Waterfront sea- passenger terminal. The Grandmaster’s Palace and most of the auberges had their façade decorated on the th baroque style. Some of the richest houses (eg.Casa Rocca Piccola) were built in the 18 century. Strada San Giorgio and Strada Mercanti were the best streets of Valletta having most of the finest buildings with shops, stores or workrooms in the ground floor. Strada Forni and Strada San Paolo were mainly residential having fewer shops and fewer public buildings. In the 17th century more and more people went to live within the walls of the city.

  • Women Troublemakers in 18Th Century Malta
    STORJA '98 33 EARTHLY MADONNAS? WOMEN TROUBLEMAKERS IN 18TH CENTURY MALTA Yosanne Vella . In the criminal reports and court proceedings of the eighteenth century one comes across a large number of women, almost equal to the number of men, getting into all kinds of trouble. In many cases women were the victims of injustices and criminal acts. However at other times it was the women themselves who were personally involved and committed the crimes. Although their own legal rights were limited, women regardless of marital status,could be sued in the same way as men. For example, court records show that women were sued in civil law in such matters as the non-payment of debts and illicit gambling in their taverns. Accusations against women both from Valletta and the villages included those of abusive and blasphemous conduct, drunkeness,theft offense,smolesting,fighting and beating up people. Punishments took the form of fines,warnings as well as imprisonment, incarceration in a conserllatorio and even exile to Gozo. From the large number ofinstances of imprisonment of women found throughout the eighteenth century, the population in the women's prison must have been impressive. Unfortunately it is impossible to check the actual figure, since no published records of the prison population of the eighteenth century exists. One need not, in fact be too surprised at a huge number of women prisoners in the eighteenth century, considering that for example a mere 76 years ago in 1921, there was a total of 480 women prisoners in Malta. l This figure is relatively high for Malta's 1921 population of210,000, especially since for the past twenty years the average number of women prisoners has been in the region of 10! One explanation for a large number of 18th century prisoners might be that women were imprisoned for reasons which we would today consider minor offenses .
