The morphological variability and different modes of life result from beetle ability to adapt to all kinds of habitats. Terrestrial and soil living forms dominate. Beetles undergo a complete metamorphosis and most species live in soil during at least one of the stages. They include predators, herbivores, parasites and sapro- phagans, playing a fairly significant role in nature and in man’s economy. Our knowledge of beetles, even of the common species, is insufficient. In spite of the fact that the beetle fauna of Central Europe has been studied relatively well, the knowledge accumulated is generally limited to the adults, while the immature stages have not been adequately studied. -

Song As the Memory of Language in the Arbëresh Community of Chieuti
MY HEART SINGS TO ME: Song as the Memory of Language in the Arbëresh Community of Chieuti Sara Jane Bell A thesis submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Curriculum in Folklore. Chapel Hill 2011 Approved by: Dr. Robert Cantwell (Chair) Dr. William Ferris Dr. Louise Meintjes Dr. Patricia Sawin ABSTRACT SARA JANE BELL: My Heart Sings to Me: Song as the Memory of Language in the Arbëresh Community of Chieuti (Under the Direction of Robert Cantwell, Chair; William Ferris; Louise Meintjes; and Patricia Sawin) For the people of Chieuti who grew up speaking the Albanian dialect that the inhabitants of their Arbëresh town in the Italian province of Puglia have spoken for more than five centuries, the rapid decline of their mother tongue is a loss that is sorely felt. Musicians and cultural activists labor to negotiate new strategies for maintaining connections to their unique heritage and impart their traditions to young people who are raised speaking Italian in an increasingly interconnected world. As they perform, they are able to act out collective narratives of longing and belonging, history, nostalgia, and sense of place. Using the traditional song “Rine Rine” as a point of departure, this thesis examines how songs transmit linguistic and cultural markers of Arbëresh identity and serve to illuminate Chieuti’s position as a community poised in the moment of language shift. ii For my grandfather, Vincenzo Antonio Belpulso and for the children of Chieuti, at home and abroad, who carry on. -
