The Dynamics of Italian Transcultural Exchanges SCONTRI E INCONTRI: THE DYNAMICS OF ITALIAN TRANSCULTURAL EXCHANGES 9th Biennial ACIS Conference Monash University Prato Centre 4-7 July 2017 TABLE OF CONTENTS WELCOME FROM ACIS 2 WELCOME FROM THE CONFERENCE CONVENORS 3 CONFERENCE PROGRAM 4 KEYNOTE PRESENTATIONS 10 PLENARY PANEL 14 PRE‐CONVENED PANELS 15 ABSTRACTS 16 WELCOME FROM ACIS On behalf of the Australasian Centre for Italian Studies (ACIS) I am delighted to welcome everyone to our 9th Biennial Conference in Prato. Our previous conferences have been held across Australasia in Canberra, Perth, Brisbane, Auckland, Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney. In 2005 we organised our conference at the Cassamarca Foundation’s Casa dei Carraresi in Treviso so it is a pleasure now to return to Italy and hold this conference in Prato. As always we are very grateful to the universities which have supported the events and to their staff, academic and administrative, who have worked so hard to organise them. In this case our thanks are due to Monash and La Trobe universities for the opportunity to meet in Monash’s Prato Centre. Staging the conference in Italy offers particular encouragement for scholars from both Australasia and overseas to participate, establish or renew contacts, and exchange ideas. Ensuring a mix of participants from different places, disciplines and statuses has been a hallmark of ACIS conferences so we are very pleased to welcome everyone from our keynote speakers to the postgraduate scholars who will be the keynote speakers of the future. We hope that you all, old friends and new, will enjoy a productive, intellectually exciting conference, enlivened also by the convivial evening atmosphere which no group of people with experience of Italian life could possibly fail to create. David Moss Chair, ACIS 2 WELCOME FROM THE CONFERENCE CONVENORS It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to the Monash Prato Centre for the 9th Biennial ACIS Conference. In selecting the conference theme, ‘Scontri e incontri: the dynamics of Italian transcultural exchanges’, we aim to provide an interdisciplinary platform to identify, discuss and debate those trends and turning‐points which characterise advances in society, science and the arts in terms of clashes, connections and encounters. The program for the conference promises to be equal to this task. We are privileged to have four eminent and thought‐provoking keynote speakers. As is the tradition with ACIS conferences, we have selected keynote speakers representing a range of areas of expertise under the broad umbrella of Italian Studies. Pierangela Diadori explores questions of interculturality and multiculturalism primarily through the lens of linguistics, Maurizio Isabella specializes in intellectual, political and cultural history, Nicholas Terpstra focuses on the Renaissance and early modern period and Barbara Spackman is a literature scholar specialising in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. We are also delighted at the richness and diversity of the papers that are to be presented at the conference, and especially at the large number of new researchers who will be participating. We wish to express our gratitude to our respective universities and to our sponsors, Casalini Libri – Torrossa Digital Library and Modern Italy, the journal of the Association for the Study of Modern Italy, for financially supporting the conference. We would also like to thank Giulia Aureli, Anna Grogan, Sarah Gore and all the staff at the Monash Prato Centre for their assistance in the organisation and running of the conference. To all the speakers and participants, we wish an enjoyable and stimulating experience.

  • Criticism of “Fascist Nostalgia” in the Political Thought of the New Right
    ACTA UNIVERSITATIS WRATISLAVIENSIS No 3866 Studia nad Autorytaryzmem i Totalitaryzmem 40, nr 3 Wrocław 2018 DOI: 10.19195/2300-7249.40.3.6 JOANNA SONDEL-CEDARMAS ORCID: 0000-0002-3037-9264 Uniwersytet Jagielloński Criticism of “fascist nostalgia” in the political thought of the New Right The seizure of power by the National Liberation Committee on 25th April, 1945 and the establishment of the republic on 2nd June, 1946 constituted the symbolic end to Mussolini’s dictatorship that had lasted for more than 20 years. However, it emerged relatively early that fascism was not a defi nitively closed chapter in the political and social life of Italy. As early as June of 1946, after the announcement of a presidential decree granting amnesty for crimes committed during the time of the Nazi-Fascist occupation between 1943 and 1945, the country saw a withdrawal from policies repressive towards fascists.1 Likewise, the national reconciliation policy gradually implemented in the second half of the 1940s by the government of Alcide De Gasperi, aiming at pacifying the nation and fostering the urgent re- building of the institution of the state, contributed to the emergence of ambivalent approaches towards Mussolini’s regime. On the one hand, Italy consequently tried to build its institutional and political order in clear opposition towards fascism, as exemplifi ed, among others, by a clause in the Constitution of 1947 that forbade the establishment of any form of fascist party, as well as the law passed on 20th June, 1 Conducted directly after the end of WW II, the epurazione action (purifi cation) that aimed at uprooting fascism, was discontinued on 22nd June 1946, when a decree of president Enrico De Nicola granting amnesty for crimes committed during the Nazi-Fascist occupation of Italy between 1943–1945 was implemented.

  • Beyond Intellectual Insularity: Multicultural Literacy As a Measure of Respect
    Beyond Intellectual Insularity: Multicultural Literacy as a Measure of Respect Lisa Taylor Bishops University Michael Hoechsmann McGill University Authors’ Note For their support of this research we are deeply indebted to the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council, the Canadian Race Relations Foundation, Bishop’s University, and our participating school boards, schools, teachers, and students. Note des auteurs Pour leur soutien à cette recherche, nous sommes profondément reconnaissants au Conseil de recherche en sciences humaines du Canada, à la Fondation canadienne des relations raciales, à l'Université Bishop's, et aux conseils scolaires qui ont participé ainsi qu'aux écoles, aux enseignants et aux étudiants. Abstract We report on a national survey (942 secondary students, 10 school boards, 5 provinces) that measures what young people know about the histories and the intellectual, political, and cultural legacies of racialized peoples, globally and nationally, and where they learned it (school, media, family, community). Intended as a contribution to, and challenge of, existing frameworks for multicultural education, the research demonstrates the importance of in and out of school learning, and how the various sites of learning resonate differently for particular groups of young people. It demonstrates the key role schools can play for different youth in building, or augmenting, a consistent, common knowledge base. Résumé Nous faisons le rapport d'une enquête nationale (942 élèves du secondaire, 10 conseils scolaires, 5 provinces) qui mesure la connaissance des jeunes, de l'histoire et de l'héritage intellectuel, politique et culturelle des peuples racialisés, mondialement et nationalement, et où ils l'ont appris (l'école, les médias, la famille, la communauté).

By invoking the looming presence of a graver, more insidious threat the rhetoric of the lesser evil legitimizes fascist violence against dissidents and vulnerable populations. Through an analysis of texts by fascist philosopher Giovanni Gentile and his Brazilian counterpart Miguel Reale, I reveal that the rhetoric of the lesser evil is a constitutive part of fascist discourse and that in Italy and Brazil this aspect of fascist doctrine met a favorable combination of subjective and objective conditions which has allowed it to thrive within democratic structures.

  • O Discurso Da Antropofagia Como Estratégia De Construção Da Identidade Cultural Brasileira

Colombo, 5790, 87020-900, Maringá, Paraná, Brasil. 2Departamento de Letras Modernas, Universidade Estadual de Maringá, Maringá, Paraná, Brasil. *Autor para correspondencia. E-mail: [email protected] RESUMO. Este artigo apresenta uma reflexão teórica a respeito do termo ‘deglutição’ utilizado por Oswald de Andrade no Manifesto Antropófago (1928). Nesse manifesto, recortamos o conceito de antropofagia, vocábulo que descreve a devoração do Outro no intuito de absorvê-lo, no afã de assimilar as características das estéticas estrangeiras, e que expressa o impacto dos processos colonizadores na formação da identidade brasileira. Partindo da crítica à civilização europeia (colonialista), Oswald de Andrade, nas entrelinhas de seu discurso sobre a antropofagia, dialoga com as atuais discussões acerca da dependência cultural dos países periféricos. Diante desses apontamentos, nosso propósito é traçar um percurso histórico das leituras e apropriações que o termo ‘deglutição’ sofreu ao longo destes 88 anos, na esteira de estudos de críticos consagrados como Candido, Schwarz e Santiago. Palavras-chave: antropofagia; deglutição; identidade cultural. The discourse of cannibalism as a strategy of building Brazilian cultural identity ABSTRACT. This paper presents a theoretical discussion about the term ‘swallowing’ used by Oswald de Andrade in Manifesto Antropófago (1928). In this manifesto we cut the concept of cannibalism, a word that describes the devouring of the Other in order to absorb it, in his eagerness to assimilate the characteristics of foreign aesthetic, which expresses the impact of colonizing processes in the formation of Brazilian identity.
