For a Culture of Innovation Series curated by Mimma Gallina (Associazione Culturale Ateatro), Oliviero Ponte di Pino (Associazione Culturale Ateatro). The transformations in society, technology and communication have a decisive impact on live performance and on its functions, as well as on its creative, organisational and production methods. New developments are emerging in this fast changing scenario thanks to many factors, among which the inter- twining of arts, media and cultures, the evolution of the relationship between culture, politics and citizens, the transformation of urban spaces and places of creativity, and the appearance of new audiences. Theatre and the performing arts, especially in their most innovative expressions, have always offered a key to understanding and a tool for confronting the changes in our personal and collective identities. These comprehensive, state-of-the-art volumes, with an international outlook, rich in data but also in ideas and practical suggestions, identify and analyse ground-breaking trends in the world of entertainment, without forgetting that theatre and culture are the memory of the future.

ISBN 9788835122258 Notes on Translations By way of introduction, it seems useful to clarify here the meaning of certain terms used throughout the following volume. The terms Animazione teatrale (theatre animation), Nuovo teatro (new theatre), Teatro sociale d’arte (artistic social theatre) and Teatro sociale di comunità (social community theatre) are quoted in Italian because they indicate experiences and definitions used in Italy and which do not have an exact equivalent in English. Animazione teatrale is a cultural movement developed in Italy in the 1960s and 1970s. Through play, theatre, feasts and every form of art, it aimed to promote a free, creative, social and political pedagogy at school, in the neigh- bourhoods and in every sphere of the life of children and young people. Nuovo teatro indicates all the artistic experiences which, since the second half of the 20th century, have revolutionised the forms of expression and the professional and organisational practices of the theatre, breaking with the past and affirming the intrinsic value of what is new. Teatro sociale d’arte refers to professional groups formed by or including people with disabilities, their experiences and innovative aesthetics. Teatro sociale di comunità is the specific term used by the Social and Com- munity Theatre of Turin to

Statement of use of third party for editorial help (if applicable) I can confirm that my thesis was copy edited for conventions of language, spelling and grammar by Hilary Wright 2 Abstract The recognition of rights to couples outside the institution of marriage has been, and still is, a contentious issue in Italian Politics. Normative notions of family and kinship perpetuate the exclusion of those who do not conform to the heterosexual norm. At the same time the increased visibility of kinship arrangements that evade the heterosexual script and their claims for legal recognition, expose the fragility and the constructedness of heteronorms. During the Prodi II Government (2006-2008) the possibility of a law recognising legal status to de facto unions stirred a major controversy in which the conservative political forces and the Catholic hierarchies opposed any form of recognition, with particular acrimony shown toward same sex couples.

  • MARIANGELA TEMPERA to Laugh Or Not to Laugh: Italian Parodies Of
    EnterText 1.2 MARIANGELA TEMPERA To Laugh or not to Laugh: Italian Parodies of Hamlet Some years ago, at the beginning of an undergraduate course on Hamlet at the University of Ferrara, only fifteen of my eighty students admitted to having previously read the play or seen it performed. When I asked the others to write down all they knew about Hamlet and to include at least one quote from the text in their summaries, only thirty came up with a plot line that bore some resemblance to the original, but all sixty-five selected “To be or not to be, that is the question” as their quote. Hardly surprising, since this line has a life of its own, independent not only of the rest of the play but, quite often, of the rest of Hamlet’s most famous monologue. If “Shakespeare now is primarily a collage of familiar quotations,” “To be or not to be” is undoubtedly its centrepiece .1 Predictably, the monologue features prominently in Italian parodies of Hamlet. Occasionally very funny, such parodies are always worth examining because of what they can tell us about the reception of Shakespeare’s tragedy outside the theatre and the level of familiarity with Hamlet that can be assumed in the general public. Together with parodies of Romeo and Juliet and Othello, they testify to a popularity of Shakespeare in Italy that is not Tempera: To Laugh or Not to Laugh 289 EnterText 1.2 necessarily linked to any real knowledge of the dramatist’s “greatest hits”, but rather to a vague acquaintance with their basic plots and their catchiest lines.

  • Contentious Migration Policies: Dynamics of Urban Governance and Social Movement Outcomes in Milan and Barcelona
    Contentious migration policies: Dynamics of urban governance and social movement outcomes in Milan and Barcelona PhD dissertation by Raffaele Bazurli Scuola Normale Superiore, Florence Faculty of Political and Social Sciences Ph.D. Program in Political Science and Sociology, XXXI Cycle 28 April 2020 Ph.D. Coordinator Professor Donatella della Porta Ph.D. Supervisor Professor Donatella della Porta To those who struggle, whose pain is the very reason for my efforts. To my family and friends, whose love is the very reason for my happiness. ii Abstract Local governments—of large cities especially—enact policies that crucially affect the daily life of immigrants. Migration policy-making has proliferated across cities of the Global North—and so did its own contestation. The urban environment is, in fact, a fertile breed- ing ground for the flourishing of activist networks by and in solidarity with immigrants. Yet, research on social movement outcomes in the field of migration has been lagging behind. This thesis is aimed to theorize how and under what conditions pro-immigrant activists can affect policy-making at the city-level and beyond. By adopting a strategic-interaction and mechanisms-based approach to the study of contentious politics, the research con- tends and demonstrates that movements can rely on strategic leverages within three arenas of interaction. First, brokerage mechanisms are essential to the emergence of a social movement in the civil society arena. The peculiar qualities of urban spaces—notably, the availability of dense relational networks extended over an array of geographical scales— allow immigrants to create bonds of solidarity, craft alliances, and ultimately turn into vo- cal political subjects.

Indagine di un affamato (60’) written and performed by Angelo Campolo set design Giulia Drogo assistant director Antonio Previti secretary Mariagrazia Coco produced by DAF Company and Teatro dell’Esatta Fantasia winner of the 2020 In-Box Award winner of the 2019 Nolo Milano Fringe Festival Award The filling in of a grant application concerning social issues, gives the opportunity to tell the audience the experience of Angelo, actor and director from Messina, engaged in a theatrical research in refugee shelters. Steve Jobs’ motto “Stay Hungry”, sounds like a farce when compared with the kaleidoscope of human stories, from North to South, that cross the actor’s memories. For three years his theatre training classes has been a meeting point of stories and trajectories. Without pietism, rethoric, or standpoints. Angelo takes us to his classes by the Straight, to tell the real experience of a theatre that can still be a weapon to face life. His personal daily experience of meeting and hearing the other turns into a tale on a country, Italy, which has opened and closed the doors of welcome in a schizophrenic way, leaving outside many stories, dreams, projects and human relationships that started under the cry of “Integration”. An autobiographical monologue in which victims and oppressors get confused and good and evil are separated by uncertain boundaries. All the characters are marked, each one in his own way, by a “hunger” of love and knowledge, in a time of a deep emptiness that becomes an abyss.

  • Changing Jewish Communities
    Changing Jewish Communities Number 66 February 24, 2011 http://jcpa.org/article/the-paradox-of-the-italian-jewish-experience-in-1990-2010/ The Paradox of the Italian Jewish Experience in 1990- 2010 Dr. Ephraim Nissan There is a paradox to the Italian Jewish experience in the 2000s. Jews are more integrated than ever since 1945, and Israel has been relegitimized in important quarters after being in practice delegitimized by the Communists, Socialists, and those media close to the Christian Democrats in the late 1970s and 1980s, reaching the lowest point in the second half of 1982. Yet, because of various factors including the web as well as unwillingness to take things in stride any longer, the organized and individual voices of Italy’s Jews are now often blunt, harsh, and resentful in a way that would have been unthinkable previously. While the Jews are indeed more accepted than ever, sporadic expressions of direct, incontrovertible anti-Semitism have occurred even in the circles of power, and even at the highest levels. The past twenty years have seen a confluence between Italy’s far Left and far Right in adopting anti-Israeli and sometimes anti-Semitic positions. In some cases this has involved tolerance of right-wing Holocaust denial by elements on the Left. Italy’s severely anti-Israeli and anti-Semitic responses to the 1982 Lebanon war involved both global and local aspects. It both reflected Italy’s past and has partly shaped patterns of response to Middle Eastern and Jewish affairs by a sizable part of Italy’s media and public opinion.

  • A Travelling Tale: Shakespeare on the Italian Stage Considers the Transposition from Page to Stage of Some of Shakespeare’S Plays in Italy
    Maria Coduri A Travelling Tale: Shakespeare on the Italian Stage Thesis submitted for the Degree of MPhil January 2013 Departments of Italian and English School of European Languages, Culture and Society University College London University of London 1 DECLARATION I, Maria Coduri, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis considers the transposition from page to stage of some of Shakespeare’s plays in Italy. In particular it concentrates on different approaches to Shakespeare’s texts and different ways to transform them into theatrical action. The first chapter has an introductory function, and lays the groundwork for subsequent discussion. It illustrates the encounter between the work of the English playwright and the Italian people through an overall view of the reception of Shakespeare in Italy from the first mention of his name in 1667 to Francesco De Sanctis’s critical writings in the mid- nineteenth century. The following chapters discuss how Shakespeare’s plays have been adapted for the stage by some prominent Italian actors and directors. The focus is on three periods of the history of Italian theatre. The Great Actors of the mid-nineteenth century offered stagings of Shakespeare’s plays that focused on the main character, thus depriving them of anything that did not enhance the role of the lead actor. The generation of the directors, that flourished in Italy in the mid-twentieth century, advocated a philological reading of the playtexts, after they had been so severely altered by the generation of the actors.
