  • Mafia Motifs in Andrea Camilleri's Detective
    MAFIA MOTIFS IN ANDREA CAMILLERI’S DETECTIVE MONTALBANO NOVELS: FROM THE CULTURE AND BREAKDOWN OF OMERTÀ TO MAFIA AS A SCAPEGOAT FOR THE FAILURE OF STATE Adriana Nicole Cerami A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Romance Languages and Literatures (Italian). Chapel Hill 2015 Approved by: Dino S. Cervigni Amy Chambless Roberto Dainotto Federico Luisetti Ennio I. Rao © 2015 Adriana Nicole Cerami ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Adriana Nicole Cerami: Mafia Motifs in Andrea Camilleri’s Detective Montalbano Novels: From the Culture and Breakdown of Omertà to Mafia as a Scapegoat for the Failure of State (Under the direction of Ennio I. Rao) Twenty out of twenty-six of Andrea Camilleri’s detective Montalbano novels feature three motifs related to the mafia. First, although the mafia is not necessarily the main subject of the narratives, mafioso behavior and communication are present in all novels through both mafia and non-mafia-affiliated characters and dialogue. Second, within the narratives there is a distinction between the old and the new generations of the mafia, and a preference for the old mafia ways. Last, the mafia is illustrated as the usual suspect in everyday crime, consequentially diverting attention and accountability away from government authorities. Few critics have focused on Camilleri’s representations of the mafia and their literary significance in mafia and detective fiction. The purpose of the present study is to cast light on these three motifs through a close reading and analysis of the detective Montalbano novels, lending a new twist to the genre of detective fiction.

  • L'homme Qui Tombe De Don Delillo
    UDA 2008-2009 Le monde en pages L’homme qui tombe de Don DeLillo Animation de l’Atelier Daniel Simon L'Homme qui tombe, Don DeLillo, traduit de l'américain par Marianne Véron, Actes Sud, 298 pp., env. 22 € Le 11 septembre de DeLillo Guy Duplat Mis en ligne le 11/04/2008 Le romancier américain publie, à son tour, son roman sur "la catastrophe" A près avoir donné du temps au temps et laissé retomber l'émotion immédiate, les grands romanciers américains se sont emparés des attentats du 11 septembre comme d'un événement mythique, refondateur ou destructeur, de l'identité américaine. Il y eut l'an dernier, le roman de Jay McInerney "La belle vie" (aux Editions de l'Olivier), un des plus réussis sur ce thème. La semaine dernière, nous parlions du dernier livre d'Updike, "Terroriste" (au Seuil), un thriller. On attendait encore le roman de Don DeLillo, le voici. A nouveau, comme dans ces autres romans sur le 11-9, "L'homme qui tombe" ne parle pas immédiatement de la chute des tours (quoique) mais évoque plutôt son impact sur les esprits. Il raconte comment certains survivants ont reçu dans leur chair, comme des stigmates, des bouts de corps des victimes. Et, surtout, comment des millions d'autres Américains ont vu leurs tours intérieures se fissurer et leur vision de leur monde proche, dangereusement basculer. Il y avait un monde avant le 11 septembre, il y en a un autre après. POKER À LAS VEGAS L'histoire est d'apparence simple. Keith, un banquier qui travaillait dans une des tours du WTC, juste en dessous de l'impact meurtrier, a pu, par miracle, s'échapper à temps et il arrive couvert de gravats et de coupures chez son ex-femme Lianne et leur fils Justin.

  • A Short Survey of Czech Literature
    A Short Survey of Czech Literature who later lived as a journalist in Paris, and was close to the Surrealists and avant- James Naughton garde painters such as the Czech Josef Šíma. Some similarity has also been observed between Kafka and the outsider and refugee anti-heroes of Egon Hostovský (1908- 73), a Czech novelist of Jewish family, who went to the United States after the 1948 CZECH LITERATURE SINCE 1918 Communist takeover. A skilful practitioner of the mystery short-story, especially in its detective form, as An independent Czechoslovak Republic was established after the First World War well as of anti-Utopian science-fiction, was the Czech author Karel Čapek (1890- under the leadership of its first president Tomáš Garrigue Masaryk (1850-1937). 1938). An admirer of H. G. Wells and Chesterton, Čapek was rather well known in Masaryk’s own writings on the course of Czech history, his war memoirs, and English translation before the Second World War. His drama R.U.R (=Rossum's expositions of his political and philosophical ideas won him a devoted following, Universal Robots, 1920) turned the Golem and related figures into commercially though there is doubtful matter in his seductive interconnecting of Hussitism and useful products of bio-engineering, who proceed to threaten mankind and the Czech plebeian or non-aristocratic traditions with modern ideas of democratic survival of the human soul. The play gave the world the term “robot” (from robota - government into a Czech “meaning of history”. feudal labour), nowadays associated with fairly unworrying Japanese machine-tools. Jaroslav Hašek’s (1883-1923) Osudy dobrého vojáka Švejka (The Good Soldier His detective stories in Povídky z jedné a druhé kapsy (Tales of Two Pockets, 1929) Švejk, 1921-23) is one place to begin a look at post-1918 literature, with its First explore epistemological and moral issues with a light, often whimsical touch.

  • Jaroslav Tůma Tomáš Jamník Gustav Mahler and Prague
    czech music quarterly 1 | 2 0 0 7 Jaroslav Tůma Tomáš Jamník Gustav Mahler and Prague Dear Readers, As you have certainly already noticed, Czech Music Quarterly has been graphically reworked for 2007. We thought that the existing design needed freshening up, and I hope the new appearance of the magazine will give you the same pleasure that it has given us. The smaller format and more attractive paper should make for more comfortable reading. This issue of the magazine also comes with a free CD, containing pieces by six contemporary Czech composers, which means that Czech Music Quarterly is now a magazine not just to be read but to be “listened to” as well. The Chamber Music compilation is the fi rst in a series. You can read more about the whole project in the preface to the CD itself and so I here I shall just draw you attention to the article by Miroslav Pudlák, which is related to the CD and highlights some aspects of the contemporary Czech scene in composing. I would also like to remind you that you can order older numbers of Czech Music Quarterly – if we have any of the ones you want, we shall be glad to post them to you. You can fi nd a list of the contents of all preceding numbers at www.czech-music.net, and there is plenty of choice! And please feel free to contact us any time if you have a question or a comment – just write to the e-mail address [email protected].

  • Famous People from Czech Republic
    2018 R MEMPHIS IN MAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL Tennessee Academic Standards 2018 EDUCATION CURRICULUM GUIDE MEMPHIS IN MAY INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL Celebrates the Czech Republic in 2018 Celebrating the Czech Republic is the year-long focus of the 2018 Memphis in May International Festival. The Czech Republic is the twelfth European country to be honored in the festival’s history, and its selection by Memphis in May International Festival coincides with their celebration of 100 years as an independent nation, beginning as Czechoslovakia in 1918. The Czech Republic is a nation with 10 million inhabitants, situated in the middle of Europe, with Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Poland as its neighbors. Known for its rich historical and cultural heritage, more than a thousand years of Czech history has produced over 2,000 castles, chateaux, and fortresses. The country resonates with beautiful landscapes, including a chain of mountains on the border, deep forests, refreshing lakes, as well as architectural and urban masterpieces. Its capital city of Prague is known for stunning architecture and welcoming people, and is the fifth most- visited city in Europe as a result. The late twentieth century saw the Czech Republic rise as one of the youngest and strongest members of today’s European Union and NATO. Interestingly, the Czech Republic is known for peaceful transitions; from the Velvet Revolution in which they left Communism behind in 1989, to the Velvet Divorce in which they parted ways with Slovakia in 1993. Boasting the lowest unemployment rate in the European Union, the Czech Republic’s stable economy is supported by robust exports, chiefly in the automotive and technology sectors, with close economic ties to Germany and their former countrymen in Slovakia.

  • Reason to Visit Prague
    Reason to Visit Prague Largest castle complex in the world Dating back to the ninth century, Prague Castle is recognized by the Guinness Book of Records as the largest castle complex in the world, covering an impressive 70,000 square meters. The castle complex is comprised of a number of buildings, which include the gothic St. Vitus Cathedral, a number of defense towers, a few museums and churches, the presidential palace, and Golden Lane, a 16th-century street that once housed the royal goldsmiths. 1 ©2018 – 2019 TSI To admire stunning architectural masterpieces Because Prague wasn’t severely damaged during WWII, many of its most impressive historical buildings remain intact today. Thus, Prague has another major advantage going for it: while many major European capitals were rebuilt and destroyed during the 17th and 18th centuries, Prague’s buildings were left untouched. As a result, the city is a breathtaking mix of baroque, gothic and renaissance architecture, hard to find anywhere else in Europe. The Our Lady Before Týn church in Old Town Square is a magnificent example of gothic architecture, while Schwarzenberg Palace inside the Prague Castle’s grounds is a perfect example of renaissance design. Examples of cubism and neoclassicism also abound, with touches of Art Nouveau in places, such as the Municipal House. 2 ©2018 – 2019 TSI To see where Franz Kafka grew up Franz Kafka was born and grew up on the streets of Prague, not far from Old Town Square. Born into a Jewish family who spoke German (the language in which Kafka wrote all his books), Kafka was a lawyer who worked at an insurance company even though all he wanted to really do was write.
