KEYNOTE PRESENTATIONS Decolonising the Emotions of Neptune in Canada Kathryn Prince, University of Ottawa, Canada The first play believed to have been both written and performed in Canada, Marc Lescarbot’s 1606 pageant Le théâtre de Neptune en la nouvelle France, transforms the subjugation of Canada’s indigenous Mi’kmaq into a display of French supremacy. Marking the safe return to Port Royal (in ‘Acadie’, present-day Nova Scotia) of the explorers Baron de Poutrincourt and Samuel de Champlain from an expedition in search of a more temperate site for the troubled colonial outpost, Neptune borrows from the French genres of réception and oceanic masque to mobilise emotions of triumph, conquest and patriotism.

As Joseph Pivato’s (2004) paper shows for Canada, Calabrians in the diaspora too have also given literary articulation to the migration experience and its consequences. Calabrian Australians constitute the second largest Italian regional group (the largest being the Sicilians) and according to community estimates currently number approximately 70000 of which about 38000 are Calabrian born. They have distinguished themselves in Australia mainly in the economic sector such as the many small businesses and the few large ones established by Calabrians while many of the second generation have experienced upwards socioeconomic mobility by entering the professions (solicitors, certified practicing accountants, doctors).

    Transnational Italies: Mobility, Subjectivities and Modern Italian Cultures Conference, The British School at Rome, 26-28 October 2016-10-24 ABSTRACTS 1A - “Moving Borders, Moving Identities” Panel submitted by Eden McLean, Borut Klabjan, Vanni D’Alessio, Maura Hametz Chair: Loredana Polezzi Panel Overview Transnational studies have traditionally concerned themselves with the movement of goods, ideas, and people along and across borders, but not with the movement of the borders themselves. This panel seeks to position the movement of borders as a vital component of any conversation about what it means to be transnational, particularly in Europe’s era of the world wars. The four papers proposed here use case studies from the multiethnic—and transnational— borderlands of northeastern Italy (Trieste, Fiume/Rijeka, the Carso, and Alto Adige) to explore questions of Italian identity, citizenship, and state formation in the first half of the twentieth century. In the years directly following World War I, Italy sought to “redeem” the Italian identity of the populations living in the territories it acquired from the former Austro-Hungarian Empire. As the following papers will show, it sought to do so by imposing an official definition of Italian-ness on resident populations through the simultaneous processes of modifying language, education, and public space and subverting the presence of alternative national or ethnic affiliations. All of these efforts worked not only to transform the cultural landscape of these borderlands, but also to establish the very definition of what it meant to be Italian, at least on the edges of the Italian nation-state. Borut Klabjan, European University Institute and University of Primorska [email protected] “’Italianize it!’ National Homogenization in Interwar Trieste/Trst/Triest” After World War I, newly acquired borderlands played a key role in the national symbolism of post-war Italy.

  • Russia's Compatriot Policy and Its Reception by Estonian-Russian
    Journal on Ethnopolitics and Minority Issues in Europe Vol 15, No 3, 2016, 1-25. Copyright © ECMI 2016 This article is located at: http://www.ecmi.de/fileadmin/downloads/publications/JEMIE/201 6/Kallas.pdf Claiming the diaspora: Russia’s compatriot policy and its reception by Estonian-Russian population Kristina Kallas Tartu University Abstract Nearly a decade ago Russia took a turn from declarative compatriot protection discourse to a more programmatic approach consolidating large Russophone 1 populations abroad and connecting them more with Russia by employing the newly emerged concept of Russkiy Mir as a unifying factor for Russophones around the world. Most academic debates have since focused on analyzing Russkiy Mir as Russia’s soft power tool. This article looks at Russia’s compatriot policy from the perspective of the claimed compatriot populations themselves. It is a single empirical in-depth case study of Russia’s compatriot policy and its reception by the Russian-speaking community in Estonia. The focus is on Russia’s claims on the Russophone population of Estonia and the reactions and perceptions of Russia’s ambitions by the Estonian-Russians themselves. Keywords: compatriots, Russian diaspora, diasporisation, integration in Estonia, identity of Russian-speakers Introduction Following Russia’s annexation of Crimea and military intervention in Eastern Ukraine in 2014 dozens of journalists have ventured to Narva, the easternmost town of Estonia, with one question on their mind: “Is Narva next?” As one article in The Diplomat Publisher put it, The author is a director of Tartu University Narva College and a PhD candidate at the Johan Skytte Institute of Political Studies, Lai 36, Tartu, Estonia.

  • 1 Migrating 'Ndrangheta in the Case of Australia. a Historical Perspective
    Migrating 'Ndrangheta in the case of Australia. A historical perspective. Abstract This paper attempts to present the phenomenon of the ‘ndrangheta - criminal organisation from Calabria, South of Italy, and most powerful among the Italian mafias – through its migrating routes. In particular, the paper, by focusing on the peculiar case of Australia, aims at showing the overlapping of migrating flows with criminal colonisation, which has proven to be a ‘policy’ of this particular mafia. The paper uses the very thin literature on the subject alongside official reports on migration and crime, mainly from Italian sources, to start an historical journey on the migration of people from Calabria to Australia in various moments of the last century. The aim is to prove that, alongside the dreams for a better life, also criminal habits migrated with people, reinforced to this day through tight family ties. The topic is largely unexplored and is still underreported among Australian institutions and scholars, which is why this paper chooses a historical narration as main methodology to describe the principal threads in this very new field of research. Keywords: Australian ’ndrangheta; Italian mafias in Australia; Italian migration in Australia; organised crime in Australia; criminal colonisation; transnational organised crime 1 Migrating 'Ndrangheta in the case of Australia. A historical perspective. Migratory routes and criminal settlements The link between migration and organised crime can be considered physiological and not just because the movements of illegal immigrants for years have been almost totally managed by powerful criminal organisations based on transnational arrangements. Studies of migration have shown that those who leave their country, bring with them their own world made of life experiences and patterns of social relations, and they tend to reorganise, often through intense sacrifices, a complex system of self-defence of their ethno-cultural identity, without necessarily dismissing advanced forms of integration.

  • The Poe Tradition and the Limits of American Africanism
    Comparative Literature MATT SANDLER “Negras Aguas”: The Poe Tradition and the Limits of American Africanism N PLAYING IN THE DARK: Whiteness and the Literary Imagination (1993), Toni IMorrison argues that white American authors have used representations of blackness and Black characters — an “American Africanism” she describes as a “fabricated brew of darkness, otherness, alarm, and desire” (38) — to structure the moral and psychological dilemmas of white characters.1 Her claim that “No early American writer is more important to the concept of American Africanism than Poe” (32) has motivated Americanist scholarship seeking to situate Poe’s work in the antebellum period (see, for example, Kennedy and Weisberg; Nelson; Dayan; and Goddu). In this essay, I make a case for the ambivalence of Poe’s “American Africanism” as an aesthetic mode and demonstrate its use by anti- colonial and anti-racist writers from Latin America, the Caribbean, and the U.S.2 I begin by reading an episode in Poe’s only novel, The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym, in order to show that the book’s designs on the anxieties of its white readers depend on a deeply ironic sense of race as an idea. From there, I turn to Comte de Lautréamont, one of the first of Poe’s readers to engage his work in the context of firsthand experience with New World slavery. I conclude with a discussion of a contemporary African American novel, Mat Johnson’s Pym, which rewrites Poe’s 1 Playing in the Dark owes significant debts to postcolonial studies. Morrison’s key term, “American Africanism,” and her references to “the entire range of views, assumptions, readings, and misreadings that accompany Eurocentric learning about these people” resonate with Edward Said’s Orientalism (7).

  • Chapter 10. 500 Euro Notes
    NOTES ON THE 500 EURO On Mafias and Instituted Precarity V Theodoros Rakopoulos Between 2001 and 2016, there was a purple paper com- modity in circulation within the Eurozone that encap- sulated the highest denomination within that currency union—and, indeed, the world. No other major economy1 (not the United States nor the UK, for instance) had in cir- culation such a strong (in terms of its purchasing power) means of currency as the purple-coloured €500 note. It should come as no surprise that the vast majority of resi- dents of many Eurozone countries (including Greece or Italy, the places where I have pursued fieldwork) actually never got to see the note up close during its sixteen years of circulation. For most, the €500 measurement never materialized as cash. As it drew, in its brief life, the licit and illicit together in a symbolically loaded material artefact, the €500 note calls for a shift of analytical priorities in our understand- ing of money and the symbolic power of hard currency. This is because there is currently much demonetisation of cash, as it has been deemed a culprit of potential corrup- tion. Certain cash units (especially strong denominational notes) have raised concern for their role in facilitating illicit dealings. But while polite bourgeois media and autocrats like India’s prime minister Narendra Modi are busy demonising cash, other current economic practices, This open access library edition is supported by the University of Copenhagen.
