  • La Cultura Italiana
    LA CULTURA ITALIANA FEDERICO FELLINI (1920-1993) This month’s essay continues a theme that several prior essays discussed concerning fa- mous Italian film directors of the post-World War II era. We earlier discussed Neorealism as the film genre of these directors. The director we are considering in this essay both worked in that genre and carried it beyond its limits to develop an approach that moved Neoreal- ism to a new level. Over the decades of the latter-half of the 20th century, his films became increasingly original and subjective, and consequently more controversial and less commercial. His style evolved from Neorealism to fanciful Neorealism to surrealism, in which he discarded narrative story lines for free-flowing, free-wheeling memoirs. Throughout his career, he focused on his per- sonal vision of society and his preoccupation with the relationships between men and women and between sex and love. An avowed anticleric, he was also deeply concerned with personal guilt and alienation. His films are spiced with artifice (masks, masquerades and circuses), startling faces, the rococo and the outlandish, the prisms through which he sometimes viewed life. But as Vincent Canby, the chief film critic of The New York Times, observed in 1985: “What’s important are not the prisms, though they are arresting, but the world he shows us: a place whose spectacularly grand, studio-built artificiality makes us see the interior truth of what is taken to be the ‘real’ world outside, which is a circus.” In addition to his achievements in this regard, we are also con- sidering him because of the 100th anniversary of his birth.

  • Riflessi Di Fellini-Satyricon Nella Stampa Periodica Illustrata Contemporanea*
    RIFLESSI DI FELLINI-SATYRICON NELLA STAMPA PERIODICA ILLUSTRATA CONTEMPORANEA* di Raffaele De Berti Il ruolo della stampa nel creare attese e suscitare curiosità nel pubbli- co per sollecitarlo alla visione di un film è un fenomeno già presente nei primi decenni della storia della cinematografia, quando nascono le rivi- ste di cinema, e con gli efficienti uffici stampa delle case di produzione, soprattutto hollywoodiane, che fin dagli anni Venti passano notizie e immagini ai giornali di tutto il mondo. Si è così creato un rapporto di reciproca interazione fra media, nel quale la stampa “sfrutta” il cinema e i diversi personaggi che vi gravitano attorno (attori, registi, produttori ecc.) per interessare i propri lettori e aumentare la tiratura; mentre, nello stesso tempo, il cinema usa la stampa passando anticipazioni più o meno vere di quanto sta accadendo sul set di un film, magari creando ad arte anche situazioni scandalistiche per influenzare le scelte degli spettatori e attirarne il numero maggiore possibile all’uscita della pellicola. In genere si studia la fortuna critica di un film dalla sua prima pro- iezione, mentre più raramente ci si occupa di ricostruire la campagna di stampa che ne ha preceduto l’uscita ma che può, invece, aver contribui- to in modo decisivo a raggiungere alte cifre d’incasso. Naturalmente non si tratta di un meccanismo automatico di causa-effetto, per cui il succes- so è assicurato a fronte di un grande spiegamento dei mezzi di stampa o, più in generale, dei mass-media quando sono progressivamente entrati nella “catena mediatica” radio, tv e internet, ma nei singoli casi entrano in gioco fattori specifici, ad esempio legati al contesto culturale e socia- * Il presente lavoro riprende in parte DE BERTI 2007.

In La Dolce Vita, Otto & Mezzo and Amarcord, Fellini always sailed between the palpable and the phantasmagorical. In this article, we will try to decorticate this complementarity, by attempting to clarify what Fellini tries to convey to the audience as a real fantasy.

  • Imagination, the Open, and the Movies of Federico Fellini
    TO DISCOVER THAT _ THERE IS NOTHING TO DISCOVER: IMAGINATION, THE OPEN, AND THE MOVIES OF FEDERTCO FELL1NI By DAVID L. LAVERY A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE COUNCIL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1978 COPYRIGHT 1978 David L. Lavery For Lee Bluestein (1938-1968) and John F. Reinhardt, who first showed me the Journey Out and Back and taught me to endure it. For W. R. R. , Taylor, my parents, Carol, Joyce, and Susan. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I think I have told you, but if I have not, you must have understood, that a man who has a vision is not able to use the power of it until after he has performed the vision on earth for the people to see. Black Elk In the rites of passage of many native American peoples it is common for a young man, approaching maturity, to embark on a vision quest into the wilderness in search of a message or revelation on which he might shape his existence. I would like to think of the follow- ing work as such a vision quest, and I wish here to thank those who were responsible in their various ways for helping me complete the quest. W. R. Robinson introduced me to Fellini and to the movies and taught me to see as well as an amblyopic blind person like myself could hope to. Taylor Scott brought me, I hope, back to earth, pronouncing, like Guido's producer, the magic words, "Down, definitely down," when I most needed to hear them.

  • Federico Fellini: a Life in Film
    Federico Fellini: a life in film Federico Fellini was born in Rimini, the Marché, on 20th January 1920. He is recognized as one of the greatest and most influential filmmakers of all time. His films have ranked in polls such as ‘Cahiers du cinéma’ and ‘Sight & Sound’, which lists his 1963 film “8½” as the 10th-greatest film. Fellini won the ‘Palme d'Or’ for “La Dolce Vita”, he was nominated for twelve 'Academy Awards', and won four in the category of 'Best Foreign Language Film', the most for any director in the history of the Academy. He received an honorary award for 'Lifetime Achievement' at the 65th Academy Awards in Los Angeles. His other well-known films include 'I Vitelloni' (1953), 'La Strada' (1954), 'Nights of Cabiria' (1957), 'Juliet of the Spirits' (1967), 'Satyricon' (1969), 'Roma' (1972), 'Amarcord' (1973) and 'Fellini's Casanova' (1976). In 1939, he enrolled in the law school of the University of Rome - to please his parents. It seems that he never attended a class. He signed up as a junior reporter for two Roman daily papers: 'Il Piccolo' and 'lI Popolo di Roma' but resigned from both after a short time. He submitted articles to a bi- weekly humour magazine, 'Marc’Aurelio', and after 4 months joined the editorial board, writing a very successful regular column “But are you listening?” Through this work he established connections with show business and cinema and he began writing radio sketches and jokes for films. He achieved his first film credit - not yet 20 - as a comedy writer in “Il pirato sono io” (literally, “I am a pirate”), translated into English as “The Pirate’s Dream”.

Dr. David H. Sick Project Sponsor Dr. James M. Vest Second Reader Dr. Michelle M. Mattson Extra-Departmental Reader Dr. Kenneth S. Morrell Department Chair Acknowledgments In keeping with the interdisciplinary nature of classical studies as the traditional hallmark of a liberal arts education, I have relied upon sources as vast and varied as the monuments of Rome in writing this thesis. I first wish to extend my most sincere appreciation to the faculty and staff of the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies in Rome during the spring session of 2008, without whose instruction and inspiration the idea for this study never would have germinated. Among the many scholars who have indelibly influenced my own study, I am particularly indebted to the writings of Catherine Edwards and Mary Jaeger, whose groundbreaking work on Roman topography and monuments in Writing Rome: Textual approaches to the city and Livy’s Written Rome motivated me to apply their theories to a modern context. In order to establish the feasibility and pertinence of comparing Rome’s antiquity to its modernity by examining their prolific juxtapositions in cinema as a case study, I have also relied a great deal upon the works of renowned Italian film scholar, Peter Bondanella, in bridging the ages.

Berlin/Boston: De Gruyter, 635-648. Marie-Therese Mäder 39 FedericoFellini: From Catholicismtothe Collective Unconscious The interface between Federico Fellini’s(1920–1993) oeuvreand religion is rich but complex and evident in abroad rangeofreligiouslyconnoted topics,motifs, stories, and styles.Literal biblical references rarelyappear in Fellini’scinematic universe. Nevertheless they are present,often visualized and materialized in asubverted char- acter.For biblical reception in Fellini’swork is mediated through his interpretation of Catholic ideas inasmuchashereceivedthe biblical tradition in athoroughlyRoman Catholic context. Fellini’screative period, which started in 1950 with Luci del varietà (a.k.a.Variety Lights)and ended in 1990 with La voce della luna (a.k.a. TheVoice of the Moon), com- prises twenty-four films thathedirected. Films withoutreference to Roman Cathol- icism are in the minority,asFellini unremittingly accused the Church and its agents of factitiousness and ambivalence. Roman Catholic censorsofficiallybanned La ten- tazionedel dottor Antonio (1962, a.k.a. TheTemptationofDr. Antonio,acontribution to the omnibus production Boccaccio ’70)and 8½ (1963). Conservative groups pro- tested at the screenings of other works.Fellini’scritical ambivalencetowardthe Church is repeatedlyevident in the aesthetic of his workand attests to the signifi- cance of RomanCatholicism in his familial, social,and educational background.
