  • Thirty Years After: American Vietnam War Literature
    Rosso­Manoa­Nov. 2005­p. 1 Thirty Years After: American Vietnam War Literature in Italian Stefano Rosso (University of Bergamo) [email protected] (23.000 bytes, including notes and bibliography) It is well known that the American War in Vietnam had a great impact in Europe from 1966 up to the American withdrawal and the fall of Saigon. The Vietnam War triggered off an unprecedented anti­imperialist political awareness in Italy, too. Several books and essays on history and politics –some translated from English and French– 1 came out between the mid sixties and the early seventies and were the most important references on imperialism until the coup d’état against Salvador Allende and Chile’s legitimate government aided by the CIA in 1973. Seminars on the Vietnam War became frequent in schools and universities; newspapers and journals, not necessarily left­oriented, continued publishing articles critical of American intervention. The slogan “Yankees Go Home!”, chanted during the major Italian anti­imperialist mass demonstrations, came to mean only one thing: “Americans Get Out of Vietnam!” 2 In the publishing world, the so­called “Sessantotto”, the 1968 protest movement, was also characterized by the end of the “editori protagonisti” (protagonist publishers), such as Mondadori, Einaudi, Garzanti and, later, Feltrinelli, that is, the end of a long period – from the 1930s to the 1960s – dominated by a few publishers with a strong, articulated and recognizable cultural project involving intellectuals and thinkers. The late sixties saw, on the one hand, the birth of several small and very small publishers, and on the other, a strong process of concentration among the major companies.

  • Chapter Four T H E P L a C E O F T H E G O O D in Aristotle's Natural Teleology
    Chapter Four The Place of the Good in Aristotle's Natural Teleology by Allan Gotthelf In previous writings I have offered an interpretation of Aristotle's conception of final causality in terms of his conception of an "irreducible potential for form."1 I have argued that final causality is operative in nature, and teleological explanation thus appropriate, only when there is being actualized a potential for a complex organic outcome which is not ontologically reducible to a sum of actualizations of potentials of the organ- ism's elemental constituents. At no place in this analysis do I refer to the goodness of that complex organic outcome.2 Some recent writers have suggested that the absence of any reference to goodness in the analysis of Aristotelian ends is a mistake. Thus, one of the most influential recent discussions of teleological explanation, John Cooper's 1982 Owen Festschrift paper, "Aristotle on Natural Teleology," begins as follows: Aristotle believed that many (not, of course, all) natural events and facts need to be explained by reference to natural goals. He understands by a goal (ov evexa) whether natural or not, something good (from some point of view) that something else causes or makes possible, where this other thing exists or hap- pens (at least in part) because of that good. Copyright © 1988 Allan Gotthelf. Revised from the paper read November 19, 1987, at Clark University, as part of the Tenth Annual Boston Area Colloquium in Ancient Philosophy. 1. Gotthelf 1976/77, reprinted with a long "Postscript 1986" as Gotthelf 1987a. Cf. Gotthelf 1980, 19876.

Abstract We studied the distribution dynamics of the demand for books in Italy. We found that for each of the three broad sub-markets into which the book publishing industry can be classified − Italian novels, foreign novels and non-fiction − sales over a three-year sample can be adequately fitted by a power law distribution. Our results can be plausibly interpreted in terms of a model of interactions among buyers exchanging information on the books they buy.

  • An Historical and Textual Study of Emilio De Marchi's Il
    Art for the Reader’s Sake: An Historical and Textual Study of Emilio De Marchi’s Il cappello del prete (1888) Christina Petraglia “Ma quando io avrò durata l’eroica fatica di trascrivere questa storia da questo dilavato e graffiato autografo, e l’avrò data, come sul dirsi, alla luce, si troverà egli poi chi duri la fatica di leggerla?” -Introduzione, I promessi sposi (“…but when I have labored through the heroic task of transcribing this ancient story from its defaced and faded manuscript – when I have brought it to the light of day, to use the common phrase – who will labor through the task of reading it?” -Narrator’s Foreword, The Betrothed)1 Alessandro Manzoni’s narrator of I promessi sposi (1842) grapples with the task of writing throughout the story of Renzo and Lucia. Manzoni’s narrator, though omniscient, is certainly not the removed, unbiased observer that the Italian reader will come to know almost forty years later in Giovanni Verga’s verismo, which proposes a “studio sincero e spassionato” (“sincere and dispassionate study”)2 of individuals struggling in their social milieus. The Manzonian narrator, though loosely employing free indirect style, frequently enters into the story, coloring it with opinionated language and value judgments, and openly addressing his “dear reader.” In the brief citation above, derived from the novel’s preface, the narrator explicitly appeals to the reader in first person and presents himself as a kind of “reader” who feels called to decipher a 200-year-old manuscript containing the accounts of the lives of Renzo and Lucia.

  • Stemming the Flood: the Censorship of Translated Popular Fiction in Fascist Italy”, Perspectives 26(6): 838-851
    This is an Accepted manuscript of an article published by Tayor & Francis: Rundle, Christopher (2018) “Stemming the flood: the censorship of translated popular fiction in Fascist Italy”, Perspectives 26(6): 838-851. DOI: 10.1080/0907676X.2018.1444646. Stemming the flood: the censorship of translated popular fiction in Fascist Italy Christopher Rundle aDepartment of Interpreting and Translation, University of Bologna, Forlì Campus, Italy; bSchool of Arts Languages and Cultures, University of Manchester, Manchester, UK Abstract In this article I will show how the hostility towards translation in Italy during the Fascist regime, and in particular in the 1930s and the early 1940s, was principally motivated by a hostility towards popular fiction and its dramatic impact on the Italian publishing industry. I also want to show how, when the regime eventually intervened against translation, its main objective was to restrict the flow of popular fiction and protect the masses from its perceived harmful influence. In conclusion, I shall argue that the history of translation and of popular fiction in this period are inextricably linked and that an examination of this theme can provide a significant insight into the evolution of Fascist cultural policy. Keywords: translation, censorship, popular fiction, crime fiction, fascism, Italy 1. Introduction In this article I want to show how the hostility towards translation in Italy during the Fascist regime, and in particular in the 1930s and the early 1940s, was principally motivated by a hostility towards popular fiction. In my earlier research on translation in Fascist Italy I have recounted in some detail how the regime’s attitudes towards translation evolved in line with its increasingly xenophobic and racist policies, and I have recounted how it only intervened relatively late with specific censorship measures aimed at translations (Rundle, 2010).

  • Teleology, First Principles, and Scientific Method In
    Teleology, First Principles, and Scientific Method in Aristotle’s Biology by Allan Gotthelf Oxford/New York: Oxford University Press, 2012. Pp. .ISBN 978– 0–19–928795–6. Cloth $99.00 xviii + 440 Reviewed by Tiberiu Popa Butler University [email protected] Students of Aristotle may take it nearly for granted today that a rigorous study of his biological writings is worthwhile not just because of the intrinsic merits of those works but also because they can help us to acquire a deeper and more nuanced understanding of other parts and aspects of Aristotle’s oeuvre—especially his metaphysics and natural philosophy, and his philos- ophy of science.This view, however, was considerably less popular just a few decades ago. David Balme, and subsequently Allan Gotthelf, James Lennox, and other influential scholars, contributed significantly to this par- adigm shift in the field of Aristotelian studies. Besides his work devoted to Ayn Rand’s philosophy, Gotthelf is well known as the author of many seminal articles and chapters on ancient philosophy, and as the editor or co-editor of several important books on Aristotle’s biological treatises and their philosophical implications. His prominent place in the recent history of Aristotelian scholarship has been acknowledged, among other things, by the publication of Being, Nature, and Life in Aristotle: Essays in Honor of Allan Gotthelf [2010]. Teleology, First Principles, and Scientific Method in Aristotle’s Biology gathers 16 articles (some based on conference presentations), of which four—chapters 4, 12,

    In memoriam Allan Gotthelf (30 December 1942–30 August 2013) ⋆ James G. Lennox University of Pittsburgh [email protected] Allan Gotthelf passed away on August 30, 2013 in his apartment in Philadel- phia under the care of close friends, finally succumbing to the cancer that he had battled successfully for many years. He has left behind a lasting legacy of distinguished scholarship on Aristotle’s philosophy and science; but more than that, Allan was able, through his infectious enthusiasm, spirit of coopera- tion, and formidable organizational skills, to reshape the field of Aristotelian studies fundamentally. Not only through his scholarly publications but through his prodigious organization of workshops, conferences, summer insti- tutes, and a truly astounding network of correspondence, which only became more astounding with the advent of the Internet, Allan was able to involve an ever expanding number of scholars in a systematic study of Aristotle’s biological writings, encouraging us to consider the Generation of Animals, Parts of Animals and History of Animals as much a part of our scholarly diet as the Organon, Metaphysics, or Nicomachean Ethics.Indeed, he en- couraged us to think of these investigations as sources of insight into these philosophical works and not merely as documents in the history of biology. Born in Brooklyn on December 30, 1942, Allan Gotthelf came of age during the heyday of the Brooklyn Dodgers, attending games at Ebbets Field as a young boy shortly after Jackie Robinson had joined the team, an event that left

So I picked up his latest book, America the Philosophical, and I was disappointed.1 Romano’s thesis is that the United States is a nation of vigorous philosophical activity and—contrary to the critics who portray it as an intellectual wasteland of complacency and platitudes—a culture that takes philosophy seriously. It’s a great topic, and I agree with Romano’s thesis. First impressions matter, however, and the first section of America the Philosophical I read was the eight pages on philosopher-novelist Ayn Rand, a case study in how not to write about other philosophers (pp. 359-66). Here’s how to write a book about other philosophers: (1) Present their positions. (2) At least sketch the arguments for the positions they take. (3) Criticize those positions when necessary by making counter- arguments. Here’s how not to write about other philosophers: (4) Ignore the academic literature about the philosopher and use only critical remarks gleaned from amateurs or non-philosopher professionals. (5) Focus more on gossip about the philosopher’s person rather than the person’s philosophy. (6) Identify the philosopher’s views in passing with those of contemporary politicians whom you despise. 1 Carlin Romano, America the Philosophical (New York: Alfred A. Knopf, 2012).
