    Italian Americans and the Mythology of Crime: “The Godfather Paradox”

    Italian Americans and the Mythology of Crime: “The Godfather Paradox” STEFANO MARANZANA University of Arizona Proceeding of the AATI Conference in Cagliari [Italy], June 20-25, 2018. Section Cultural Studies. AATI Online Working Papers. ISSN: 2475-5427. All rights reserved by AATI. ABSTRACT: This article examines the portrayal of Italian Americans in American media. The Order Sons of Italy in America (OSIA), the largest and longest-established national organization for men and women of Italian heritage in the USA, denounces the entertainment industry for damaging the collective reputation of Italian Americans. Particularly, the OSIA charges Coppola’s trilogy The Godfather with being “the principal agent responsible” for promulgating a discriminatory ethnic stereotype that all Italians are criminals, while accusing the series The Sopranos of having reinforced this notion. Yet, the authors of these works of fiction, both Italian Americans, maintain that exploring their own ethnic identities led them to utilize the Mafia as a metaphor for American society. We will see that, not only it is unjust to accuse a movie trilogy to be the “the principal agent responsible” for such stereotype, but I would submit that The Godfather has helped to mitigate the negative image of the Mafioso existing in American cinema long before Coppola’s films, turning it into a liminal figure conveying a positive impression formerly missing. An examination of early American gangster movie stereotyping and scholarship on Italian American studies will substantiate the claim that neither The Godfather nor The Sopranos have truly damaged the image of Italians in America. Paradoxically, the Italian-as-a-gangster stereotype has helped Italian Americans to break out of the margins.

    Cases and Materials on the Outfit

    Rosen: Cases and Materials on The Outfit David Rosen Don Corleone to Sonny, in The Godfather The Don sighed. "Well, then I can't talk to you about how you should behave. Don't you want to finish school, don't you want to be a lawyer? Lawyers can steal more money with a briefcase than a thousand men with guns and masks. " Robert Warshow, in "The Gangster as Tragic Hero" Thus, the importance of the gangster film, and the nature and intensity of its emotional and esthetic impact, cannot be measured in terms of the place of the gangster himself or the importance of the problem of crime in American life. Those European movie-goers who think there is a gangster on every comer in New York are certainly deceived, but defenders of the "positive" side of American culture are equally deceived if they think it relevant to point out that most Cases and Materials Americans have never seen a gangster. What matters is that the experience of the gangster as an experience of on art is universal to Americans. There is almost nothing we understand better or react to more readily or with The Outfit quicker intelligence. This night, though, Pam had a different tale to tell. She announced that she and her friend Annie, the daughter of a prize-winning biologist, had gone to see "The Godfather," that they had been so deeply moved that, instead of going home, she'd gone tripping around town in search of the Mafia. I remember one night Pam showed up at the House at "The Mafia!" three in the morning.

(USA) Online ISSN: 2249-460x & Print ISSN: 0975-587X The Sociolinguistic Features of Gangster Argot in the Godfather By Zheng Yang Shanghai Jiao Tong University Abstract- Modern linguists reached an agreement on the argument that language capability makes human species unique among all group-living species on the planet, so it can be hypothesized that a language could not survive if it were disconnected from interpersonal relations. Despite a well entrenched consensus on language equality among modern linguists, there is an intangible pyramid of languages due to linguistic discrimination. Gangster argot, which is subjected to a subliminal “censorship” from the vast majority of people, has seldom been considered as a decent and valuable topic in the field of modern linguistic studies. In view that The Godfather is exemplary of the way Mafia members speak in real-life scenarios, this novel is sampled as an optimal literary discourse to study what makes gangster argot different from ordinary speech. On the basis of literary specimens excerpted from the novel, this research concludes that gangster argot, which juxtaposes conciseness with confidentiality, is characteristic of adaptive resilience, absorptive capacity, and provocative rhetoric.

  • Notes from the Sicilian Archipelago

    Notes from the Sicilian Archipelago

    Baldacchino: Sicily/Lingering Colonial Outlier - ISLAND REFLECTIONS - LINGERING COLONIAL OUTLIER YET MINIATURE CONTINENT: NOTES FROM THE SICILIAN ARCHIPELAGO GODFREY BALDACCHINO University of Malta/ University of Prince Edward Island <[email protected]> Abstract The fortunes of the wider Mediterranean Sea, the world’s largest, have never rested on Sicily, its largest island. A stubbornly peripheral region, and possibly the world’s most bridgeable island, Sicily has been largely neglected within the field of Island Studies. The physically largest island with the largest population in the region, and housing Europe’s most active volcano, Sicily has moved from being a hinterland for warring factions (Sparta/Athens, Carthage/Rome), to a more centrist stage befitting its location, although still remaining a political outlier in the modern era. Unlike many even smaller islands with smaller populations, however, Sicily has remained an appendage to a larger, and largely dysfunctional, state. The Maltese islands are part of ‘the Sicilian archipelago’, and it was a whim of Charles V of Spain that politically cut off Malta from this node in the 1520s, but not culturally. This article will review some of the multiple representations of this island, and its changing fortunes. Keywords Archipelago, heterotopias, Island Studies, Sicily, Italy, Malta, Mediterranean, periphery Introduction In both its physical and its human setting, the Mediterranean crossroads, the Mediterranean patchwork, leaves a coherent image in the mind as a system in which everything mingles and is then recast to form a new, original unity (Braudel, 1985: 5). On a clear wintry day, one can easily see the snow-capped top of Mount Etna, Europe’s largest active volcano, from various vantage points on the Maltese islands; and the lights along the southern Sicilian coast are also readily visible from the northern hills of Malta during clear nights (see Figure 1).

    Paradigm of Knowledge № 4(36), 2019 DOI 10.26886/2520-7474.4(36)2019.2 UDC 008 OMERTÀ AS A WORLDVIEW PHENOMENON OF THE ITALIAN MAFIA Olena Andriyenko, PhD, Professor Academician of the Academy of Higher Education of Ukraine, Ukraine, Kiev The article is devoted to the philosophical inquiry of mafia worldview system the base of which is omertà – the code of honor of the Italian mafia which is based on the code of silence deeply rooted in southern Italy and Corsica, the refusal to cooperate with the authorities and non-interference in other people’s legal affairs. The methodological mistakes connected with trying to analyze mafia worldview in comparison with the scale of values of democratic society have been shown. It has been stressed that omertà is not only a system of keeping silence but also a system of specific ways of communication inside of the mafia community. The forms of manipulation of the consciousness of the personality have been revealed depending on the characteristics of political regimes (democratic, authoritarian, totalitarian forms of the social mechanism of manipulation of the personality consciousness). It has been concluded that mafia as worldview system and type of social organization is an alternative form of social integration. It has deep historical and cultural roots which are connected with absence of stable national state governance in the South of Italy during ages; with deep distrust of the official state; with irrational desire to reproduce the “real power” in another form based on the family values and kinship. Key words: Worldview, Personality, Community, State, Values.

Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT Analyzing the personalities and relationship of the characters is an effective method for both the professionals and the ordinary audience to comprehend movies. By discovering and explaining how Michael Corleone in The Godfather influences his relationship with other characters, this dissertation is aimed at assisting readers to fully comprehend the essence of movies in detail. This paper utilizes the method which extracts a variety of conflicts and major transitions between Michael and other characters to reflect how Michael’s personalities work on these relationships. Based on the facts in the movie, Michael demonstrates different attitudes to his family members and the outsiders of his family. It will be helpful for the audience if there are researches which can deeply analyze a more well-rounded image of Michael’s Corleone, besides analyzing his relationship and personalities appears in the future. This paper finally concludes that Michael’s personalities cause him to have completely different relationships with two types of character, as the family members and the outsiders. Keywords: Personalities, relationship, influence, gangster, Godfather 1. INTRODUCTION 2. OVERVIEW OF MICHAEL CORLEONE’S PERSONALITIES The Godfather, as a classic and representative Italian gangster movie, reflects the conflicts between Corleone Overall, Michael has two types of personalities, including family and other forces in United States as well as the stable personalities and the variational personalities.

Robinson. But there was a vital difference. Its examination of the Corleone family had a consistently human dimension that made the evil of the Mafia, who loved it for the wrong reasons, all the more horrendous. As a study of evil, it was all the better for assuming that such darkness emanated not from dyed-in-thewool villains but out of some of the family values we now most cherish. Added to that, of course, was the brilliance of its making, with Gordon Willis’ photography and Nino Rota’s score adding to Coppola’s fine orchestration of a terrific cast.
