Buon Natale from the Solare Team! Ciao -- Here is a note about 3 Italian Christmas delicacies that we are making in a very limited amount. The intent is that these are items that you may select to buy, take home, and enjoy with your holiday dinner. Solare Home-Made Artisanal Traditional Christmas Panettone Panettone is a type of sweet bread loaf originally from Milan (in Milanese dialect of the Lombard language it is called paneton), usually prepared and enjoyed for Christmas and New Year in Italy. It is made during a long process that involves curing the dough, which is acidic, similar to sourdough. The proofing process alone takes several days, giving the cake its distinctive fluffy characteristics. Chef Accursio made ours with Italian flour, butter, milk … and honey, eggs, candy oranges, sultana raisins, vanilla, lemons, almonds, amaretti, spices, and Sicilian sea salt. See attached photos! In Italy the panettone comes with an often varied history, but one that invariably states that its birthplace is in Milan. The word "panettone" derives from the Italian word "panetto", a small loaf cake. The augmentative Italian suffix "-one" changes the meaning to "large cake". The origins of this cake appear to be ancient, dating back to the Roman Empire, when ancient Romans sweetened a type of leavened cake with honey. The first recorded association of panettone with Christmas can be found in the writings of 18th century illuminist Pietro Verri. He refers to it as "Pane di Tono" (luxury cake). (credit: Wikipedia) We have a total of 30 artisanal panettone Italian Christmas cakes that we made – please order asap if interested. We have a few that are 63% Belgian chocolate infused also (limited). Each panettone serves 6 to 8 persons. It lasts a couple of weeks after purchase. Available for pick up December 21. $20 each.

Attitudes Towards the Safeguarding of Minority Languages and Dialects in Modern Italy
ATTITUDES TOWARDS THE SAFEGUARDING OF MINORITY LANGUAGES AND DIALECTS IN MODERN ITALY: The Cases of Sardinia and Sicily Maria Chiara La Sala Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds Department of Italian September 2004 This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. The candidate confirms that the work submitted is her own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. ABSTRACT The aim of this thesis is to assess attitudes of speakers towards their local or regional variety. Research in the field of sociolinguistics has shown that factors such as gender, age, place of residence, and social status affect linguistic behaviour and perception of local and regional varieties. This thesis consists of three main parts. In the first part the concept of language, minority language, and dialect is discussed; in the second part the official position towards local or regional varieties in Europe and in Italy is considered; in the third part attitudes of speakers towards actions aimed at safeguarding their local or regional varieties are analyzed. The conclusion offers a comparison of the results of the surveys and a discussion on how things may develop in the future. This thesis is carried out within the framework of the discipline of sociolinguistics. ii DEDICATION Ai miei figli Youcef e Amil che mi hanno distolto

The Simulacrum Precedes the Truth: Padre Onofrio Branda's Linguistic Counterfeit Jason M Collins Giambattista Vico in His Aptl
The Simulacrum Precedes the Truth: Padre Onofrio Branda’s Linguistic Counterfeit Jason M Collins Giambattista Vico in his aptly titled Principi di scienza nuova d’intorno alla commune natura delle nazioni, or simply The New Science, presents the axiom “Men of limited ideas take for law what the words expressly say” (Vico 93). Vico’s assessment is not one meant to be a caveat isolated to one event in time. Vico’s work attempts to align facts, erroneous and exaggerated as they may be due to inaccurate or limited resources, so as to fashion not only an original approach to historiography, but also a theory and methodology. He does so by presenting history and its structures as corsi e ricorsi; it is a theory that recognizes history is not the linear history bar on the wall of classrooms marked with pertinent historical dates, undeviating in its appearance as unique events, but rather as a configuration that is cyclical in nature, and therefore with a repetitive schema. Vico’s axiom’s relevance lies in the theory he sets forth that owing to corsi e ricorsi, history (in its recurrent quality with the obvious supposition of man using ostentatiously dubious observations and contestations subjective in nature to fashion consent through misinformation) will repeat as a function of humanity to persistently be examined. This ostensible barrage of falsehoods obtains realization even in the Enlightenment era, clouded with its cliché of adages on truth and knowledge from Immanuel Kant’s Sapere aude1 to Cesare Beccaria’s La massima felicità divisa nel maggior numero.2 Padre Onofrio Branda, a Milanese scholar, educator, and cohort to members of Il Caffè including Beccaria, endeavored to further his own renown by creating a simulacrum fashioned as a Socratic dialogue that addresses the Tuscan language as a primary didactic and social commodity to be diffused.

ABSTRACT Today, Italy contains one of the most rapidly changing populations of the European Union. Currently, 7.2% of Italy’s 60 million residents are non-citizens. Recent demographic data trends towards a large demographic shift in Italy society. One of every six babies delivered was born to a foreign born immigrant in 2008. This wave of immigration, especially the segment arriving from Africa, has not been integrated smoothly into Italian society, however. Because of a prevailing xenophobic attitude in Italy, immigrants have been greeted with prejudice and even acts of violence. Thus, immigrants have become the “other” in Italy. The purpose of this thesis is to uncover “othering” in Italy and its origins through the translation of a work of a respected Italian journalist (Gian Antonio Stella). Additionally, this thesis offers a reflection on the process of translation. i TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT..………………………………………………………………………………..i TABLE OF CONTENTS……………………………………………………………………ii

The Rhaeto-Romance Languages
Romance Linguistics Editorial Statement Routledge publish the Romance Linguistics series under the editorship of Martin Harris (University of Essex) and Nigel Vincent (University of Manchester). Romance Philogy and General Linguistics have followed sometimes converging sometimes diverging paths over the last century and a half. With the present series we wish to recognise and promote the mutual interaction of the two disciplines. The focus is deliberately wide, seeking to encompass not only work in the phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, and lexis of the Romance languages, but also studies in the history of Romance linguistics and linguistic thought in the Romance cultural area. Some of the volumes will be devoted to particular aspects of individual languages, some will be comparative in nature; some will adopt a synchronic and some a diachronic slant; some will concentrate on linguistic structures, and some will investigate the sociocultural dimensions of language and language use in the Romance-speaking territories. Yet all will endorse the view that a General Linguistics that ignores the always rich and often unique data of Romance is as impoverished as a Romance Philogy that turns its back on the insights of linguistics theory. Other books in the Romance Linguistics series include: Structures and Transformations Christopher J. Pountain Studies in the Romance Verb eds Nigel Vincent and Martin Harris Weakening Processes in the History of Spanish Consonants Raymond Harris-N orthall Spanish Word Formation M.F.

IN ALTRE LINGUE a Lombard Sinti Ethno-Text on Mourning and Marriage
IN ALTRE LINGUE A Lombard Sinti ethno-text on mourning and marriage Andrea Scala (State University of Milan) Department of Literary Studies, Philology and Linguistics [email protected] ABSTRACT The ethno-text presented in this contribution concerns some cultural practices connected with mourning and marriage in use in the Lombard Sinti communities. In the landscape of Romani varieties spoken in Italy by Roma and Sinti of old settlement, the dialect of the Lombard Sinti shows a good degree of intergenerational transmission and retention of inherited Indo-Aryan morphology. Of course, as all Romani varieties, the Romani dialect spoken by Lombard Sinti presents many innovations as well, especially in the lexicon. The text is a good example of the Lombard Sinti speech characterized by frequent instances of code-switching and code-mixing. Some peculiar features and innovations of this Romani dialect, emerging here and there in the text, are shortly discussed in the final part of the paper. ISO 639-3 code: rmo DOI: 10.23814/ethn.16.20.sca The ethno-text here published has been recorded in 2010 from a 50 year old female informant belonging to a Sinti community settled in the territory of Piacenza (Emilia- Romagna, Italy). The variety used by the informant is clearly identifiable as Lombard Sinti, a dialect of Romani belonging, as all Sinti dialects, to the North-Western Branch of the Romani dialect continuum. Although being the variety of a Romani speaking group of old settlement in Italy, Lombard Sinti has not yet been illustrated by a comprehensive

ELSA PASSERA THE SEMANTIC EVOLUTION OF THE LATIN TERMS DOMINA, FEMINA AND MULIER IN THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE Domiììci. femiiici and Diiilicrwen^ terms of common usage throughout \'ar- ious stages of Latin history', which later evolved into various forms in the modern Romance languages. The derivatives can be linked closely semanti- cally with the original Latin words and concepts. Others may have taken on completely innovative meanings. Through the course of this study, which consists of an in-depth look at the Italian derivatives, we will see, for exam- ple, how the semantic possibilities of \\'ords stemming from these Latin ety- mons have expanded and widened to include references to tools, plants, animals and even cuisine. The purpose of this study is to illustrate the semantic evolution of the derivatives of the Latin terms domina, femina, and millier in literary Italian and its spoken dialects from a diachronic point of view. Similar linguistic studies on these specific concepts exist that outline important stages in the semantic evolution of the three terms to be studied. For example, the article entitled Femmina e donna by G. Bonfante, pub- lished in 1958. is useful for the present paper because it deals with the evo- lution of the terms donna and femmina in early Italian literary history', specifically the 13 and 14^^ centuries. Another relevant article, entitled Ricerche sulle denominazioni della donna nelle lingue indeuropee, by Anna Giacalone Ramat, appeared over 10 years later in 1969. The section on the Latin language where the author explains the semantic stages of mulier and femina and the competition between the two is particularly valuable and the author also deals briefly with donna ana femmina in Old Italian.

ITALIAN BOOKSHELF Edited by Dino S. Cervigni and Anne Tordi
ITALIAN BOOKSHELF Edited by Dino S. Cervigni and Anne Tordi REVIEW ARTICLE Vita nuova * Rime. A cura di Donato Pirovano e Marco Grimaldi. Premessa (XIII-XVII) e Introduzione di Enrico Malato (XIX-XXXI). Bibliografia citata in forma abbreviata (XXXII-LXXIV). Volume 1, tomo 1 delle Opere di Dante. 8 volumi. Roma: Salerno Editrice, 2015. Pp. 804. Hardcover. €49. ISBN 978-88-8402-986-7. This very elegant volume of more than 800 pages — containing prefaces, introductions, Dante’s Vita nuova, Rime of the Vita nuova, and other rhymes of the same time, with a very extensive commentary — constitutes the first volume of a new edition, accompanied by commentary, of the entire opus of Dante Alighieri. Spearheaded and directed by the eminent professor Enrico Malato, supported by a committee of distinguished scholars, and edited by renowned philologists and literary critics, this new edition and commentary — divided in eight volumes and several tomes, some of which have already appeared — links itself with, relies on, and seeks to supersede the editions of the sixth centenary of Dante’s death and seventh centenary of his birth, as well other very prestigious editions of Dante’s works appeared afterward, such as — to mention just a few — Giorgio Petrocchi’s critical edition of the Divine Comedy and Domenico De Robertis’s Vita nuova (1980) and Rime (2002). Begun a few years ago, this Nuova edizione commentata delle opere di Dante (NECOD) is scheduled to be completed by 2021, the seventh centenary of Dante’s death. Judging from the high scholarly level of the volumes already published, including this one edited by Donato Pirovano and Marco Grimaldi, one cannot but applaud such an undertaking: a true monument (as I will further elaborate below) to Dante, Italian scholarship, and Italy’s illustrious literary culture.

Padre Agostino Gemelli and the crusade to rechristianize Italy, 1878–1959: Part one Abstract Padre Agostino Gemelli (1878-1959) was an outstanding figure in Catholic culture and a shrewd operator on many levels in Italy, especially during the Fascist period. Yet he remains little examined or understood. Scholars tend to judge him solely in light of the Fascist regime and mark him as the archetypical clerical fascist. Gemelli founded the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan in 1921, the year before Mussolini came to power, in order to form a new leadership class for a future Catholic state. This religiously motivated political goal was intended to supersede the anticlerical Liberal state established by the unifiers of modern Italy in 1860. After Mussolini signed the Lateran Pacts with the Vatican in 1929, Catholicism became the officialeligion r of Italy and Gemelli’s university, under the patronage of Pope Pius XI (1922-1939), became a laboratory for Catholic social policies by means of which the church might bring the Fascist state in line with canon law and papal teachings.

Early Evidence for Tuscanisation in the Letters of Milanese Merchants In
Early evidence for Tuscanisation in the letters of Milanese merchants in the Datini Archive, Prato, 1396-1402 Volume 1 Joshua Brown BA (Hons), BEcon This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of The University of Western Australia School of Humanities Italian Studies 2011 ii Abstract The process of Tuscanisation, understood here as the adoption of Tuscan linguistic forms in non-Tuscan regions, affected different areas of medieval Italy at different times. In the linguistic history of Lombardy, this is generally considered to have become discernible in literary texts during the late Trecento. In non-literary texts, the earliest time that has been suggested is during the late Quattrocento. This thesis examines a corpus of letters sent from Milan by merchants between 1396-1402 to show that a process of Tuscanisation was occurring even earlier. These letters, written to the ‘merchant of Prato’ Francesco Datini and his associates around the Mediterranean, seem to show a strong presence of Tuscan or Tuscanised forms. These letters have been published by Frangioni (1994) and are subjected to a linguistic analysis for the first time here. I define a corpus of five Milanese writers based on biographical information taken from economic histories of medieval Milan and Italy, studies of medieval anthroponomy as well as family histories, and highlight evidence of Tuscanisation in both the phonology and morphology in the letters from these five merchants. Both phonology and morphology present a wide variety of outcomes. Uncertainty regarding ‘correct’ Tuscan usage is evident in hypercorrect occurrences of certain phenomena, such as diphthongs. Consonants, too, show much variation and a strong presence of Latin or Latinizing forms.
