    PORTOVENERE ITALY he ancient town of Portovenere looks T as if a brilliant impressionist painting has come to life. This romantic sentiment may not have been shared by those defending or assaulting the town over the past 1,000 years. However, today it can be said with relative cer- tainty that there is little chance of an attack by the Republic of Pisa, Saracen pirates, barbaric hordes or French Emperors. In other words, relax, have fun and enjoy your day in lovely, peaceful Portovenere. HISTORY With a population a little over 4,000, Portovenere is a small, Portovenere was founded by the Romans in the 1st century medieval town. It was built and defended by the Republic of Ge- BC.

  • The Palermo Crucible
    chapter 1 The Palermo Crucible The Piazza Marina is situated behind a row of antique palazzi facing the gulf in Palermo’s historic center. In the middle is an acre of garden called the Villa Garibaldi, which is surrounded by a handsome Art Nouveau, wrought iron fence depicting animals of the hunt. A gigantic Ficus mag- noloides tree dominates one quadrant of the garden, each enormous branch sending shoots to the ground like elephants’ trunks, creating a labyrinth of arched chambers underneath. The Piazza Marina was the center of elegance in eighteenth- and early nineteenth-century Palermo. Here men and women of baronial and princely pedigree gathered nightly, clothes and carriages on display, to eat jasmine petal ices and gossip (Eberstadt 1991: 48). After the unification of Italy in 1860, how- ever, the city’s northward expansion diminished the importance of this luxurious scene, creating new piazzas and boulevards as places for the elite to be seen. That the Piazza Marina was the scene of the 1909 mur- der of New York City police officer Joe Petrosino, sent to Palermo to pursue mafiosi, did nothing to enhance its reputation. Near the end of World War II, Allied bombers destroyed many of the waterfront palazzi, and by the mid-1960s the Piazza Marina was some- where to avoid, a place where you had to step over garbage, be vigilant against pickpockets and purse snatchers, and wonder whether the mag- nolia tree, abandoned to the surrounding patch of weeds, hid something sinister in its gothic roots. In a 1991 New Yorker article describing the neighborhood around the piazza, Fernanda Eberstadt vividly captured 1 2 The Palermo Crucible its degraded yet vibrant quality: “a row of bombed out buildings inhab- ited by cavernous little bodegas outfitted with altars to the Madonna and posters of local football stars; and a fishmonger’s outdoor stall, auto re- pair shops, and a stand selling semenza (lentils and seeds) served in brown paper cones.” Her hosts warned her about being robbed on the streets.
