    Oaches Have Left Little Room for Reviewing the Poem As a Reading Experience

    The Cantilena as a Reading Experience Bernard Micallef A patrimony of readings Emerging as a legible text from the comparative obscurity of its fifteenth- century world, Peter Caxaro’s Cantilena has understandably inspired primary interest in its medieval origins. The cultural and social climate of its historical era, the medieval medium in which it is written, and its author’s personal circumstances mark out an irresistible field for scholarly research. It should come as no surprise, therefore, that the greater part of Cantilena studies have dwelt on Caxaro’s genealogy and public roles, on potential real-life motives behind his intricately wrought allegories of hopeless despair and regained fortitude, and on the vernacular idiom showcased in his poem. These predominantly biographical and philological approaches have left little room for reviewing the poem as a reading experience. Consequently, the performative aspect of the work has often been assigned a secondary status to the scholarly endeavour to put together an historical picture of the author’s life and times. To be sure, articles such as Oliver Friggieri’s “Il-Kantilena ta’ Pietru Caxaru: Stħarriġ Kritiku [Peter Caxaro’s Cantilena: A Critical Analysis]” have redressed the balance somewhat, providing a close and insightful analysis of the poem’s rhetorical and figurative dynamics. Nonetheless, most of us still associate the Cantilena primarily with the question whether its dominant allegory of a collapsed house were not representative of Caxaro’s public humiliation due to his thwarted

    Houses in Merch~Nts Street, V Alletta

    HOUSES IN MERCH~NTS STREET, V ALLETTA by VICTOR F. DENARO Merchants Street, stretching from the Auberge d'Italie at one end to the Infermeria or old hospital at the other, is one of the busiest thoroughfares of Valletta. Every morning the street between St. John Street and Old Theatre Street is crowded with buyers at the stalls set up by vendors of every des­ cription of goods. At the left hand of the corner formed by Merchants Street and St. Lucia Street is what may be termed the cereal and potato exchange where brokers transact a considerable volume of business with exporters of potatoes and importers of cereals, whilst the opposite side of the road is oc­ cupied by importers of provisions and foodstuffs and their brokers. Near the Monte di Pietil (1) gold and jewellery changes hands, and the Valletta Market is only about fifty yards away. All these factors combine to make the street a hive of activity during the forenoon. At the head of Merchants Street, or Strada San Giacomo as it was known during the rule of the Order, opposite the Auberge d'Italie, stands the Palazzo Parisio at present used as the General Post Offi<;e. The site was originally occupied by two houses, one belonging to Chev. Fra Michel Fonterme dit la Chiesa and the other by Francesco This. These were purchased by the Bali of Manosca, Comm. Fra Giovanni di Ventimiglia, of the Langue of Provence, and formed part of an usufruct which he instituted in 1608 in favour of those members of his family who at any time might be serving in the Order (2).

    MALTESE HISTORY C. Some of the Order’s Projects in Malta Form 3 1 Unit C.1 - Valletta and the Three Cities H F E B D C A G Grand Harbour c. 1750. 1. Valletta in the 17th and 18th centuries To the original group of public buildings in Valletta the Order added in the 17th and 18th centuries, a theatre, a library, a custom house and a municipal palace for the Università of Valletta and the Three Cities. The Law Courts (Castellania) were rebuilt and the Church of St John was decorated by the paintings and sculpture of the Neapolitan artist Mattia Preti. During the 18th century new buildings in Valletta had a more worldly use. In 1732 the Manoel Theatre was built (the oldest standing theatre in Europe today), a library and warehouses along the Valletta Grand Harbour waterfront. Grand Master Pinto’s warehouses (known as Pinto Wharf) were built in the second half of the 18th century – today these have become the Valletta Waterfront sea- passenger terminal. The Grandmaster’s Palace and most of the auberges had their façade decorated on the th baroque style. Some of the richest houses (eg.Casa Rocca Piccola) were built in the 18 century. Strada San Giorgio and Strada Mercanti were the best streets of Valletta having most of the finest buildings with shops, stores or workrooms in the ground floor. Strada Forni and Strada San Paolo were mainly residential having fewer shops and fewer public buildings. In the 17th century more and more people went to live within the walls of the city.
