Antenati, Santi e Terra Nostra. I nomi dei «figli di Bonito». Uno studio sull’onomastica personale degli emigrati bonitesi 215. Bibliografia INTRODUZIONE Il perché di questo libro. Questo volume si affianca idealmente al Dizionario di topono- mastica bonitese. Dopo la ricerca sull’origine e il significato dei nomi di luogo, ecco ora un’indagine sulle parole che designano i cognomi e i nomi personali. Ho cercato di appro- fondire la conoscenza di un altro aspetto della vita della comunità bonitese – l’onomastica – indagando in un altro terreno in cui si incontrano e si intrecciano storiografia e linguistica. Come i toponimi, anche i nomi di famiglia e quelli di persona (così come i soprannomi) hanno in sé il valore di deposito della memoria e di traccia di una storia (linguistica, ma non solo).

In addition, millions of dollars and supplies of weapons were channeled to the IRA and played a key role in sustaining its campaign of violence. While this Irish-American connection has been the focus of extensive media and scholarly analysis, virtually nothing has been written about the simultaneous small, but determined, Unionist sup port network in the United States.

The increasing success of constitutional nationalists put a severe strain on the activities of republican groups in America. Noraid lead.ers today accept that the st. Patrick's Day statement by the Four Horsemen was a set-back to their efforts to win Irish-American support. The Irish National Caucus was similarly alarmed by the carter statement. It showed that constitutional nationalists had the power to influence the President. compared to this significant breakthrough, the small successes of the I.N.C. on Capitol Hill seemed singularly unimpressive.

  • Las Tendencias Monárquicas En Italia
    LAS TENDENCIAS MONÁRQUICAS EN ITALIA Es más bien reciente la aparición en Italia de un movimiento monárquico coincidente con la instauración del régimen republicano, acaecida en 1946. Si pensamos que en una sociedad tradicional la Monarquía, la patria, la religión, son valores que no pertenecen, a una clase social o a una ideología, sino que están umversalmente aceptados, resulta fácil comprender por qué los monárquicos se organizan tan tarde en relación con los demás componentes políticos. Antes sólo cabía la. oposición .al Rey o al Papa después de haber rechazado el principio de autoridad, lo cual iba a originar la crisis de los regímenes monárquicos. a) EL REFERÉNDUM INSTITUCIONAL DE 1946 Cuando en febrero de 1944 el gobierno del Reino se trasladó a Salernpr los Aliados decidieron aplazar hasta ei final de la guerra la cuestión de la forma institucional, tratando así de conciliar los puntos de vista de la Corona y de las fuerzas políticas, con la doble finalidad de concentrar todos los. esfuerzos en la lucha contra Alemania y de hacer 'aprobar, sucesivamente, el Diktat a un Gobierno legítimo. La solución de compromiso —dado que. las; fuerzas del C. L. N. no querían al viejo Rey Víctor Manuel III— se halló en el nombramiento de Humberto de Saboya como' lugarteniente general de! Rey {5 de junio de 1944, 10 de mayo de 1946). En realidad, el compromiso- sólo fue aparente porque los Aliados favorecieron directa o indirectamente a los componentes republicanos. En la línea de los principios existían dos mo- tivos válidos que podrían justificar esta actitud: Hay que tener en cuenta, sobre todo, que la víspera del referéndum la República aparecía como la ven- cedora más probable y el realismo político de los Aliados lo tuvo en cuenta,, y después —como muchos representantes antimonárquicos afirmaron en CO' micios y en declaraciones públicas— una República habría aceptado sin gran- des dificultades cualquier tratado de paz.
