Maltese Colonial Identity: Latin Mediterranean Or British Empire?
The British Colonial Experience 1800-1964 The Impact on Maltese Society Edited by Victor Mallia-Milanes 2?79G ~reva Publications Published under the auspices of The Free University: Institute of Cultural Anthropology! Sociology of Development Amsterdam 10 HENRY FRENDO Maltese Colonial Identity: Latin Mediterranean or British Empire? Influenced by history as much as by geography, identity changes, or develops, both as a cultural phenomenon and in relation to economic factors. Behaviouristic traits, of which one may not be conscious, assume a different reality in cross-cultural interaction and with the passing of time. The Maltese identity became, and is, more pronounced than that of other Mediterranean islanders from the Balearic to the Aegean. These latter spoke varieties of Spanish and Greek in much the same way as the inhabitants of the smaller islands of Pantalleria, Lampedusa, or Elba spoke Italian dialects and were absorbed by the neighbouring larger mainlands. The inhabitants of modern Malta, however, spoke a language derived from Arabic at the same time as they practised the Roman Catholic faith and were exposed, indeed subjected, to European iDfluences for six or seven centuries, without becoming integrated with their closest terra firma, Italy.l This was largely because of Malta's strategic location between southern Europe and North Mrica. An identifiable Maltese nationality was thus moulded by history, geography, and ethnic admixture - the Arabic of the Moors, corsairs, and slaves, together with accretions from several northern and southern European races - from Normans to Aragonese. Malta then passed under the Knights of St John, the French, and much more importantly, the British. -

MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 272 June 2019 1 MALTESE E-NEWSLETTER 272 June 2019 The theme for 2019: 'A Connected Commonwealth' The Royal Commonwealth Society was founded in 1868. It was given its present name in 1958 and is constituted as a charity. Over the years, the role of the Society has evolved to meet the changing nature of the Commonwealth and the Mrs Libby Ellis OAM needs of its Supporters. It is a network of individuals and organisations committed President of the Royal; to improving the lives and prospects of Commonwealth citizens across the world. Commonwealth It is non-partisan, is independent of governments and is supported solely by public Society S.A. Branch generosity. Each year the Commonwealth Day Observance is based around an annual Commonwealth theme. In 2015, the international theme was ‘A Young Commonwealth’, underlining the fact that people aged twenty- five or under account for the majority of the Commonwealth’s population, and recognising their capacity, contribution and potential. Through its educational, youth and outreach programmes, the Royal Commonwealth Society seeks to encourage young people to develop their skills and, with an increased understanding of their role as global citizens, to engage with challenges facing the international community. It aims to bring alive the fundamental principles of the modern Commonwealth-–tolerance, diversity, freedom, justice, democracy, human rights and sustainable development-–to a generation living in an increasingly interconnected world. RCS projects seek to enable young people to engage with their counterparts across the Commonwealth in youth leadership programmes, creative writing such as the Commonwealth Essay Competition.
