Royal Cooking Events a Sicilian Experience September 1 – 7, 2013 Royal Cooking Events A Sicilian Experience September 1 – 7, 2013 Live a week like a King and a Queen in the best Royal sites of Western Sicily. Eat what they were eating and learn to cook it! This cooking cxperience will take us back to 1860 when Don Fabrizio Corbera, Prince of Salina, lived a troubled time foreseeing the decline of the “Reign of the Two Sicilies” and the forming of the new nation: ITALY! (One of the most famous Italian novel “The Leopard” written by Prince Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa) Welcome in Sicily: Land of sun, sea, history, tradition and… good food! First Day We will stay at the Centrale Palace Hotel, a magnificent aristocratic residence from the 19th century, with original frescos and statues that recreate a magical atmosphere straight out of the novel “The Leopard”. Lunch at Trattoria San Francesco, established in 1834 to taste the “street food”. A 10 minute walk will take us to Teatro Massimo, the second theater in Europe after L’Opera of Paris. Our first cooking class will take place at “La Casa del Brodo” 120 years and five generations’ experience. Second Day A visit to St. Rosalie, Patron Saint of Palermo is a most. The church is on the top of Mount Pellegrino and is in a cave. The church and the view is breathtaking. We will then go to Torre di Scrigno, a tower inside the Palazzo Conte Federico (1194), were Chef Peppe Giuffrè will demonstrate the some of the dishes that will be served during the Gala Night. Chef Peppe has cooked for Pope John Paul II, the President of Italy, Robert De Niro and Sting. The Gala Night at the Palazzo will be exactly like it is described in the novel The Leopard, with servants in costumes and the Countess Federico singing opera for us, and after dinner we will waltz to the music of a string quartet. Third Day The Cathedral of Monreale (1174) is a jewel almost entirely covered with mosaic on gold background. We will then visit the Temple of Segesta, the best kept Greek temple in Sicily with the Theater nearby. In the world, when you say cannoli you think of Sicily and we will taste the best cannoli there is… Erice, the “Town of Science” with its cobblestone streets and medieval churches and castles is an experience to remember, we will stay in Erice and dine were most of the Nobel Price for Science have dined. And more sweets at Maria Grammatico Café, the author of “Bitter Almonds”. Maria will show us recipes of sweets “stolen” from the cloistered nuns. Forth Day What a view going down to Trapani from Erice with the cableway. A little taste of the best gelato in town and we will visit the “frantoio”, the oil mill were the Nonna Angelina’s extra virgin olive oil is processed. A stop to the salt flats of Marsala is a most. And now let’s go harvest the grapes… and are you ready ladies? Have fun stomping the grapes while the Sicilian Folkloristic music is going on, and at the end we will announce the best Lucy’s impersonator. We will then visit the winery were the Operetta wine and the Zibibbo are processed. The three generations of the Alagna family (mother, wife and daughter) will hold the cooking class at the country house of Princess Amelia Ometo Gordon, Vitaliana’s great-aunt. We’ll go back to the hotel in Erice with cableway for the night view. Fifth Day And off we go to the island of Favignana, Nonna Angelina’s home town. We will stay at the Hotel Tempo di Mare overlooking the sea and the island of Levanzo. A tour of Favignana with a street train is really fascinating, but Cala Azzurra will really amaze us and we will swim in the turquoise water. Stop at the 19th hundred Nonna Angelina’s country house for an aperitif and get ready for the fabulous dinner at the Palazzo Florio. We will dine in the same gala room were the Tsar of Russia, the King of England and the best nobility of Europe dined. Maria and Giovanna Guccione, famous chef and cook book writers, mentioned in the New York Times, Harper Bazaar and many more, will demonstrate some of the dishes served in the last century by Baroness Franca Florio in her summer Palazzo. Sixth Day Stabilimento Florio, the largest food processor of the 18 th century, is now a museum and we will visit this splendid factory were the tuna fish canned as we know it now was invented. We will then take a boat for a sea tour of Favignana, stopping for swimming in the best coves of the Island. A fish men’s lunch will be demonstrate on board wile going back to Trapani and to the hotel. A promenade in Trapani is so pleasant and relaxing. Our “farewell dinner” will take place at the “Le Mura”, an elegant restaurant inside the ancient walls of Trapani, overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea, Torre di Ligni and Erice. The chef will show us how to prepare the famous cous cous. Seventh Day Depending on the departure time, the bus will take us to the airport. The memories, experience and knowledge that we’ll take back will stay with us for years to come, producing a smile every time we remember those wonderful days in SICILY. Arrivederci a presto!

    Review of Historical Geography and Toponomastics, vol. VII, no. 13-14, 2012, pp. 89-112 VILLA FLORIO FROM FAVIGNANA ISLAND: ARCHITECTONIC AND FUNCTONAL HISTORY Grazia VECCHIO* * Doctor in Philosophy of Geography and Lecturer, University of Catania, Faculty of Literature and Philosophy, Department of Humanistic Sciences, Monastero dei Benedettini, No. 32, 95124, Catania, Italy email: [email protected] Abstract: Villa Florio from Favignana island: architectonic and functional history. The far Sicilian West which, besides the Egadi islands, includes the area between Marsala and Trapani is characterized by a specific landscape and socio-economic unity. In this context, the island of Favignana may be considered as the last vertex of a hypothetical economic-industrial triangle (Palermo – Marsala/Trapani – Favignana) characterized by a whole series of activities referable to the bourgeois house of Florio, one of the most powerful in Sicily from the second half of 19th century to the first decades of 20th. In the area under examination it is in Favignana that, after having bought the Egadi in 1874, they had Villa Florio built by G. Damiani Almeyda. At the same time this was intended to be an official country house and link with their tuna fisheries which were then the first industry in the Mediterranean and now significant testimony of industrial archaeology. Starting from the architectonic and functional history of the Villa and tuna fisheries and passing to an analysis which through the Florio family events, connected to those of some great English entrepreneurs, outlines their ascent and decline, in this paper we aim at reconstructing the interconnection between the Florio enterprises and the history of the aforesaid territory in relation to that of Sicily.

    Architetti in Sicilia Collana diretta da Maria Giuffrè e Maria Luisa Scalvini 1 Ettore Sessa Ernesto Basile 1857-1932 Fra accademismo e “moderno”, un’architettura della qualità FLACCOVIO EDITORE Ringraziamenti Questo libro di sintesi si inserisce nel mio percorso di tre decenni di ricerche, mostre e pubblicazioni su Ernesto Basile. Pertanto sento il dovere di estendere i ringraziamenti non solamente a chi mi ha effettivamente aiutato nella realizzazione di questo volume ma anche a chi come Gianni Pirrone mi ha iniziato a questi studi e a chi, come Giuseppina Cotroneo Catania, Ezio Godoli, Enrico Guidoni e Marco Pozzetto, mi ha accompagnato nella mia formazione di studioso e mi ha aperto nuovi orizzonti di conoscenza e di riflessione anche sullo specifico contesto culturale europeo del periodo di Basile. In un’ottica più allargata temporalmente, rispetto alla sola ste- sura di questo volume, ritengo di dover ringraziare anche Giuliana Titi Basile e Domitilla Alessi che all’inizio del mio percorso hanno avuto fiducia in me, non facendomi mai mancare nei decenni seguenti il loro appoggio e il loro affetto. Ma un particolare ringraziamento va ad Eliana Mauro con la quale ho svolto il mio percorso di cre- scita e ho condiviso tutti questi anni di studi. A lei devo incoraggiamenti e scambi di riflessioni, di ricerche e di slanci interpretativi. Con lei ho discusso in tutte le sue fasi questo lavoro e a lei devo la prima revisione del rela- tivo volume. Ho un debito di riconoscenza con Maria Giuffrè e Maria Luisa Scalvini che hanno curato la reda- zione del volume.
