From the Woman in White to La Donna in Bianco Saverio Tomaiuolo
Screening Collins in (and out of) Italy: from The Woman in White to La donna in bianco Saverio Tomaiuolo Abstract The Woman in White is an intrinsically visual narrative, in which images are as excessive as its themes. In light of the impact and influence of theatricality and of melodrama on Collins’s novel, visuality and sensation are thus constantly aligned in this narrative, which addresses its audience through a constant reference to the powerful appeal on the mind (and imagination) of the sensorial organ of sight. The first- rate value attributed by Collins to optical perception may be considered one of the reasons why many of his texts, and in particular The Woman in White, have had a fruitful visual afterlife on TV and cinema. After introducing a selection of movies and of TV renditions of Collins’s most famous novel, my essay will focus on its Italian adaptation, broadcast with the title of La donna in bianco on the National Public Broadcasting Company (RAI) in 1980. A common denominator in almost all screen translations of Collins’s story is their focusing on marital brutality, women’s legal imbalance, and female assertiveness. In this sense, my analysis aims at showing that Collins’s visual narrative succeeded in addressing its Italian audience in a specific historical, political and cultural phase of the nation’s history, during which divorce as well as social and domestic violence (including the inhumane treatment of the insane) were still cogent issues. Key Words Wilkie Collins; The Woman in White; divorce; domestic violence; La donna in bianco; Italian television; adaptation; treatment of the insane; RAI; BBC. -

The Crime Fiction Genre Was Relatively Slow to Catch Hold in It
The Italian Detective Novel: The Literary and Cinematic Giallo Joseph Eynaud (University of Malta) Introduction The crime fiction genre was relatively slow to catch hold in Italy although it gradually became very popular and eventually influenced some of the country’s most talented writers. As in most other countries the mystery entered Italy in the form of translations of American and especially British stories. There were, however, some very early local mystery writers including Francesco Mastriani who published The Blind Woman from Sorrento (Bietti, Milan, 1973) in serial form in 1852. Emilio De Marchi published an inverted mystery (one in which the guilty person is known at the outset) entitled The Priest’s Hat in 1858 (republished in 1927 by Fratelli Treves, Milan, 1927). The genre was really begat, however, in 1929 when the publishing house Mondadori began to turn out mysteries and especially translations of U.S. and British mysteries in the “pulp” style with yellow covers. These were christened “I libri gialli” or the “yellow books”. Thus “giallo” caught on as shorthand for the crime fiction genre, a term that eventually expanded to mean also thrillers and suspense and was also extended to films. Giallo (gialli, plural) became, as in most countries and especially Italy, a mass-market, popular type of literature. Gradually, indigenous writers were attracted in larger numbers to the genre. For example, Alessandro Varallo adopted an ironic tone in a number of his works (e.g. Dramma e Romanzo Poliziesco, Comoedia, 1932). Arturo Lanocita published Forty Million (Mondadori, Milan) in 1931 with comedy as the main theme. -

COUP DE PROJECTEUR Cinéma Italien
Octobre 2018 n° 18 Et pour quelques DVD de plus… vous présente les coups de coeur cinéma (nouveautés et rééditions) de la médiathèque de Meudon, ainsi qu’une sélection thématique. Retrouvez également toutes les dernières nouveautés dans la boîte à idées du portail. COUP DE PROJECTEUR Cinéma italien Coup de projecteur sur quatre beaux films italiens sortis ces derniers mois au cinéma et disponibles maintenant en DVD. Quatre films qui dans la veine du néo-réalisme italien des années 50, proposent des chroniques sociales poignantes et fortes de l'Italie d'aujourd’hui. A ciambra / Jonas Carpignano (2017) Deuxième long-métrage de Jonas Carpignano, jeune cinéaste italo-américain, A Ciambra suit le parcours d’un adolescent rom qui vit de combines et d’arnaques. Il va devoir endosser de façon précoce le rôle du chef de famille. Tourné avec le concours d’une véritable famille rom calabraise, ce film qui mélange avec énergie naturalisme et polar fait fortement penser au travail de Jean-Charles Hue en France (La BM du seigneur). L’Intrusa / Leonardo Di Costanzo (2017) Dans L'Intrusa, Leonardo Di Costanzo filme le combat d'une assistante sociale aux prises avec la mafia dans un centre d’aide aux enfants d’un quartier pauvre de Naples. Par son récit et son action ramassés à une unité de lieu et sa spontanéité documentaire, le film sous un aspect modeste révèle pour autant avec brio les profonds traumas de la société napolitaine. Cœurs purs / Roberto De Paolis (2017) Le premier long métrage De Roberto de Paolis dépeint l’amour naissant entre deux jeunes romains qui vivent dans deux mondes que tout oppose. -

Italian Female Epistemologies Beyond 'The Scene of the Crime' by Leslie
Italian Female Epistemologies beyond ‘The Scene of the Crime’ By Leslie Elwell A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies in the Graduate Divison of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair Professor Albert Ascoli Professor Mia Fuller Professor Mary Ann Smart Fall 2013 Abstract Italian Female Epistemologies beyond ‘The Scene of the Crime’ by Leslie Elwell Doctor of Philosophy in Italian Studies University of California, Berkeley Professor Barbara Spackman, Chair The crime genre, more familiarly referred to in Italian as the giallo, thrives in Italy and finds it origins in the late nineteenth-century popular novel or romanzo d’appendice. This dissertation groups together four twentieth and twenty-first century Italian novels written by women that elicit the crime genre only to then short-circuit it. Rather than placing them within the revisionist subgenre ‘Feminist crime fiction,’ I suggest that these novels are radical in that they stage their own withdrawal from a gendered structure of knowledge inhabited and engendered by the crime novel: an epistemology that leaves them unthought. Indeed, these novels must leave the genre behind in order to pursue the construction of a female site of knowledge and the possibility of a female knower. In creating space for alternate, experimental discourses, these narratives rethink the relation between epistemology and gender, epistemology and narrative, epistemology and the body, and epistemology and the maternal by returning to, and rewriting, stories of origin so as to begin again and know differently. 1 Introduction This dissertation groups together four twentieth and twenty-first century Italian novels written by women, and in so doing creates a mini-genealogy, by way of a shared, and complicated, relationship to the detective or crime novel. -

Guido Davico Bonino the Einaudi Primer
guido davico bonino The Einaudi Primer Translated by Yvonne Freccero o my newly graduated students , who are preparing for Ttheir plunge into the next century (as we used to say), I always wish the boldest of fortunes. In fact I believe that a young person’s professional future depends as much on the favors of the blind goddess as on natural gifts and advanced studies. I’ve noticed this in many of the people around me — and above all in myself. In 1960 I had written a twenty-page essay on Our Ancestors, the three fairy-tale romances by Italo Calvino, published in the Supercoralli collec- tion. An academic colleague had done me the favor of forwarding it to Giambattista Vicari, the founder and director of the review Il Caffe in Rome. Vicari in turn was kind enough to publish it, but not without a few changes, especially to the conclusion. Calvino, who was working at Il Caffe at the time, read it and called Vicari to ask for the author’s tele- phone number: “But surely you know him? He’s Torinese. I believe he’s one of Getto’s clan of students, like Sanguineti and Bàrberi Squarotti.” Calvino called me and made an appointment to meet at the publishing house. He was very generous (too generous) in his opinion of my essay. Then he made sure that I was indeed Torinese, by birth as well as up- bringing, and without further ado asked me: “Would you like to work here? At the end of the year I will be giving up my role as director; I still have two or three novels I want to write before retiring from literature. -
ITALIAN CRIME FICTION and the GLOBAL PENAL STATE Francesco
ITALIAN CRIME FICTION AND THE GLOBAL PENAL STATE Francesco Bratos 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 Studies. Chapel Hill 2021 Approved by: Serenella Iovino Roberto Dainotto Maggie Fritz-Morkin Federico Luisetti Ennio Rao © 2021 Francesco Bratos ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Francesco Bratos: Italian Crime Fiction and the Global Penal State (Under the direction of Serenella Iovino) This dissertation analyzes contemporary Italian crime fiction’s success, relating it to the penal system’s growing centrality in the Italian (and global) political, social, and cultural scene. Although crime literature’s great popularity is commonly accepted as a fact, literary criticism has rarely examined the reasons for this long-standing success. Combining an analysis of the Italian publishing market and a study of some socio-cultural dynamics that have affected the world of politics, the judiciary, and the media in the last thirty-forty years of Italian history, this dissertation tries to explain the fortune of crime fiction abandoning purely stylistic, psychologizing and sociologizing approaches. In this sense, crime fiction is seen as a point of contact between instances and powers capable of shedding light on some critical dynamics of contemporary Italian society, such as social fears, the institutional clash between state powers, the media’s role in modern trials. It emerges that crime fiction, being an enormously varied and profoundly flexible genre, is directly related to all these aspects. Although this link with reality influences a large part of contemporary crime fiction production, it is particularly evident in the work of many real-life magistrates, police officers, and investigative journalists who have turned into successful crime fiction writers.
