One day I met a girl and after that I spent so many hours thinking about how this girl would feel if I became Emperor of Mexico, or maybe died instead, that I had very little time left for anything else. So at night I filled my allotted space with invented stories which people liked very much because they were much more true to life than true ones. Of course, there is nothing surprising about this, because stories, like people, grow in a certain atmosphere.

CEU eTD Collection III ABSTRACT Despite a vast research about the impact of the Hungarian crisis of 1956 on the legacy of Communism in Italy, the controversial choices of the Italian Communist Party (PCI) have been often considered to be a sort of negative exception in the progressive path of Italian Communism toward modern European socialism. Instead, the main idea of this research is to reconstruct the PCI’s decision-making within the context of the enduring strategic patterns that shaped the political action of the party: can the communist reaction to the impact in Italy of the Hungarian uprising be interpreted as a coherent implication of the communist preexisting and persisting strategy? In order to answer this question, it is necessary to reconstruct how the news coming from Hungary left an imprint on the “permanent interests” of the PCI, and how the communist apparatus reacted to the crisis.

  • Adenauer, Marshall and Freedom in Europe
    1 Nikolas R. Dörr Adenauer, Marshall and Freedom in Europe Speech for the George Marshall Society George-Marshall-Haus in the Konrad Adenauer School, Kriftel, June 6, 2013 Ladies and gentlemen, today is a good day to think about German-American relations. A few hours ago, during his state visit, U.S. President Barack Obama held a speech at the Brandenburg Gate and almost exactly fifty years ago – on 26 June 1963 – John F. Kennedy famously proclaimed „Ich bin ein Berliner“ in front of the Rathaus Schöneberg. „Adenauer, Marshall and Freedom in Europe“– It is a comprehensive topic. Konrad Adenauer and George C. Marshall were globally two of the most important politicians in the post-war period. Numerous publications have been brought out about both of them: monographs, anthologies, even illustrated books, to say nothing of the multitude of articles in scientific and journalistic media. In this talk, I will focus on the immediate post-war period, in which both politicians reached the peak of their prowess. You see Konrad Adenauer, first Federal German Chancellor from 1949 and leader of the CDU from 1950 to 1966, as Time magazine‘s „Man of the Year“ in 1953 with very nice symbolism in the background: showing a new tree growing, slowly but surely, from the old German oak shattered after the loss of the World War. This was seen to be, above all, economic growth. This evening‘s second protagonist is George Catlett Marshall, Chief of Staff of the U.S. army in the Second World War, politically independent Secretary of State between 1947 and 1949 as well as Secretary of Defense 1950 to 1951.

  • The People of the Po's Volatile Relationship with Their River
    Semestrale di Studi e Ricerche di Geografia DOI: 10.13133/1125-5218.15383 XXXI, 1, 2019, ISSN 1125-5218 pp. 45-59 An “old drunken and malicious father”: the people of the Po’s volatile relationship with their river Peter Coates* Keywords: Flooding, Liquidity, Amphibious culture, Risk adaptation, Environmental humanities 1. Introducing Il grande fiume When we think about Italian rivers, those that usually spring to mind are the Tiber and the Arno (Mauch, Zeller, 2008, p. 1). Yet neither is Italy’s longest riv- er, nor the most influential watercourse in modern Italian history. Instead, the status of Il grande fiume and il fiume nazionale has been awarded to the Po (Can- estrelli, 1892, p. 23; Mammi, 1996; Papotti, 1996, pp. 27, 35, 53, 56). The main fluvial artery of Italian industry and commerce – the nation’s «only respectable river» according to journalist and writer Giovanni Guareschi (Guareschi, 2013), p. x) – the Po bisects Italy’s most productive agricultural region and most densely populated area. The river’s significance is also international. The science and technology of river control in continental Europe was born on its unstable banks. This cradle of hydraulic engineering is a superlative river of gastronomy too. The powerful taste of place transmitted by the river and its valley, Val Padana – also known as la pianura padana or la Bassa (Papotti, 1996, pp. 19-21) – has also inspired a wealth of literary and filmic representations. Culturally as well as economically, the Po has become il Mississippi italiano, or, il nostro Old Man River. The relationship between the Po and its people – who, following the lead of film director Michelangelo Antonioni, we might refer to as gente del Po (Anto- nioni, 1947)1 – is complex and multi-layered.

  • Don-Camillo-Comrade.Pdf
    Table of Contents Gold Fever Don Camillo’s Revenge Don Camillo in Disguise Operation Rondella A Forced Rest The Space Cell Politics on the Road Christ’s Secret Agent The Rains Came to Stay Three Stalks of Wheat The Cell Goes to Confession In the Jaws of Hell Comrade Nadia’s Coffee The Next-to-Last Wave A Story That Has No End A Note from the Author Gold Fever The news exploded like a bomb around Monday noon, upon the arrival of the newspapers. Someone in the village had won ten million liras in the national soccer sweepstakes. The papers gave the name of the winner as Pepito Sbezzeguti, but no one in the town was known under such an exotic name. The bet collector, besieged by a curious mob, threw out his arms hopelessly. 'I sold any number of tickets to fellows from out of town at the market on Saturday,' he said. 'It must be one of them. Ten million liras! He's bound to show up.' But no one showed up, and the village continued to fret, because they felt sure there was something fishy about the name. Sbezzeguti was plausible, someone of that name might have come to the market. But Pepito was going a little too far. Nobody who dealt in wheat, corn, hay, livestock and Parmesan cheese would be called Pepito. 'It's a phony name, if you ask me,' said the proprietor of the Molinetto.'And someone using a false name isn't likely to be a stranger. It must be a villager who doesn't want it known that he played the sweeps.

  • When TV Series Permeate and Produce Reality. Preliminary Reflections on Performativity of the «Small Screen»
    Isabelle Dumont When TV Series permeate and produce Reality. Preliminary Reflections on Performativity of the «Small Screen» The last decades witnessed the development of a «new narrative formula» in the world of TV series, able to influence opinions and behaviours and to stimulate in spectators a sort of «state of immersion». Furthermore, some series end up with having a more tangible performative effect, realizing a state of permeation of reality which can be materialized for instance in the fiction induced tourism, but also with the creation of «public forums» where TV viewers mix up political opinions and their private sphere. Nevertheless, «permeation» only constitutes a first step of performativity, while a second stage – «production of reality» – is reached in some cases when locations physically take on some characteristic features of a TV series. Which are then the factors and mechanisms that trigger performativity? A possible key to answer the question can be found applying Berques’ concept of médiance to the analysis of this phenomenon. Quando la fiction permea e produce la realtà. Riflessioni preliminari sulla performatività del «piccolo schermo» Gli ultimi decenni hanno visto lo sviluppo di una «nuova formula narrativa» nel mondo della fiction, in grado di in- fluenzare opinioni e comportamenti e di stimolare negli spettatori una sorta di «stato di immersione». Inoltre, alcune fictions finiscono per avere un effetto performativo più tangibile, realizzando uno stato di permeazione della realtà che può concretizzarsi ad esempio nel turismo indotto dalla fictionstessa, ma anche nella creazione di «forum pubblici» dove i telespettatori mescolano opinioni politiche e sfera privata. Tuttavia, la «permeazione» costituisce solo un primo livello della performatività, mentre un secondo stadio – la «produzione della realtà» – viene raggiunto in alcuni casi allorquando determinate locations assumono fisicamente alcune caratteristiche di una fiction.

Guareschi's "Mondo Piccolo" and the Sacrality of Conscience Abstract This study adopts a Christian hermeneutic to explore sacred themes in several of the 346 Don Camillo short stories that Giovannino Guareschi wrote between 1946 and 1966. Such a critical approach may seem non- traditional to use in analyzing a post-World War II, twentieth-century author. And yet, Guareschi defies convention in many ways beyond his profession as a journalist, humorist and popular author: he openly opposed the anti-clerical and Marxist literary establishment; defined himself as an anti-intellectual; and, as a layperson, he wrote unromantically about matters of faith. Especially as editor of the immensely popular weekly newspaper Candido, he had the perfect forum to reach millions of readers who shared his Christian values and were not part of the intellectual elite.

  • 10 Fiction Books Every Catholic Should Read (Or at Least Try Once)
    10 fiction books every Catholic should read (or at least try once) Humans are wired to seek the truth. God created us that way. It helps us in finding God who is Truth itself. While science and math give us measurable facts, the place where we reach real, intangible truth is usually in our stories. Good fiction helps us recognize who we are, who we want to be and how to live a life of courage, honesty, endurance and compassion. There’s a reason that Jesus told so many parables, after all. If you’ve got the choice between a detailed lecture and an exciting story, which one would you pick? In today’s world we may come across few parables, but we do have an abundance of novels and short stories. Here are 10 good stories for you to try. Some of the authors are Christian, some are not, but all have truth at the heart of their tales — in a very entertaining package. “The Epic of Gilgamesh” (2100 BC) Just because a story is 4,000 years old doesn’t mean you won’t understand it. The basic plot is a lot like a modern superhero movie. Gilgamesh (half-god) is the cruel king of Uruk. He and good-hearted Enkidu (monster slayer) become best friends after an epic wrestling match proves them equals. When Enkidu dies, the grieving Gilgamesh hunts the key to immortality. But nothing he finds changes the fact that every person must die. Gilgamesh returns to Uruk and becomes the good king that the people wanted all along.
