David Morante will read extracts from Moravia’s works. Alberto Moravia , born Alberto Pincherle , (November 28, 1907 – September 26, 1990) was one of the leading Italian novelists of the twentieth century whose novels explore matters of modern sexuality, social alienation, and existentialism. or his anti-fascist novel Il Conformista ( The Conformist ), the basis for the film The Conformist (1970) by Bernardo Bertolucci; other novels of his translated to the cinema are Il Disprezzo ( A Ghost at Noon or Contempt ) filmed by Jean-Luc Godard as Le Mépris ( Contempt ) (1963), and La Ciociara filmed by Vittorio de Sica as Two Women (1960). In 1960, he published one of his most famous novels, La noia ( The Empty Canvas ), the story of the troubled sexual relationship between a young, rich painter striving to find sense in his life and an easygoing girl, in Rome. It won the Viareggio Prize and was filmed by Damiano Damiani in 1962. An adaptation of the book is the basis of Cedric Kahn's the film L'ennui ("The Ennui") (1998). In 1960, Vittorio De Sica cinematically adapted La ciociara with Sophia Loren; Jean- Luc Godard filmed Il disprezzo ( Contempt ) (1963); and Francesco Maselli filmed Gli indifferenti (1964). In 1962 Moravia and Elsa Morante parted; he went to live with the young writer Dacia Maraini. Increasingly, he concentrated on theatre; in 1966, he and Maraini and Enzo Siciliano founded the company called "Il Porcospino", which staged works by Moravia, Maraini, Carlo Emilio Gadda, and others. The short story collection, La cosa e altri racconti ("The Thing and other stories"), was dedicated to Carmen Llera, his new companion (forty-five years his junior), whom he married in 1986. In 1984 he was elected to the European Parliament as member from the Italian Communist Party. His experiences at Strasbourg, which ended in 1988, are told in Il diario europeo ("The European Diary"). In 1985 he won the title of "European Personality". In September of 1990, Alberto Moravia was found dead in the bathroom of his Lungotevere apartment, in Rome. In that year, Bompani published his autobiography, Vita di Moravia ("Life of Moravia"). Dacia Maraini was born November 13, 1936 in Fiesole, Italy. She is the daughter of Topazia, an artist who belonged to an aristocractic Sicilian family. She has won many awards for her work, among which the Formentor Prize for L'età del malessere (1963), the Premio Fregene for Isolina (1985), the Premio Campiello and book of the year award for La lunga vita di Marianna Ucrìa (1990) and the Premio Strega for Buio .When she was a child, Maraini's family moved to Japan in 1938 to escape fascism. They were interred in a Japanese concentration camp from 1943 to 1947 for refusing to recognize the military government. After the war, the family returned to Italy and lived in Sicily with her mother’s family in the town of Bagheria. Not long after, her parents separated and her father moved to Rome where, some years later, at the age of eighteen, Maraini joined him. She married Lucio Pozzi, a Milanese painter, but they separated after four years. She then became Alberto Moravia's companion, living with him from 1962 until 1983. In 1973, she helped to found the Teatro della Maddalena which was run by women. Maraini is a prolific and well-known writer who continues to produce works today. Prof.Wood (University of Leicester) is the author of Italian Women’s Writing 1860–1994 (London 1995) and co-editor of the Cambridge History of Women’s Writing in Italy (Cambridge 2000). Forthcoming books are on Elsa Morante and Grazia Deledda. Translations from Italian include texts by Romana Petri, Susanna Tamaro and Primo Levi. .

  • A Continuation of Myth: the Cinematic Representation of Mythic American Innocence in Bernardo Bertolucci’S Last Tango in Paris and the Dreamers
    A CONTINUATION OF MYTH: THE CINEMATIC REPRESENTATION OF MYTHIC AMERICAN INNOCENCE IN BERNARDO BERTOLUCCI’S LAST TANGO IN PARIS AND THE DREAMERS Joanna Colangelo A Thesis Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of The requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS December 2007 Committee: Carlo Celli, Advisor Philip Hardy ii ABSTRACT Carlo Celli, Advisor The following thesis aims to track the evolution and application of certain fundamental American cultural mythologies across international borders. While the bulk of my discussion will focus on the cycle of mythic American innocence, I will pay fair attention to the sub-myths which likewise play vital roles in composing the broad myth of American innocence in relation to understanding American identities – specifically, the myth of the Virgin West (or America-as-Eden), the yeoman farmer and individualism. When discussing the foundation of cultural American mythologies, I draw specifically from the traditional myth-symbol writers in American Studies. Those works which I reference are: Henry Nash Smith’s, Virgin Land: The American West as Symbol and Myth, Leo Marx’s, The Machine in the Garden: Technology and the Pastoral Ideal in America and R.W.B. Lewis’s, The American Adam: Innocence, Tragedy, and Tradition in the Nineteenth Century. I focus much of my discussion on the applicability of the myth of innocence, rather than the validity of the actual myth throughout history. In this sense, I follow the myth as a cycle of innocence lost and regained in American culture – as an ideal which can never truly reach its conclusion for as long as America is invested in two broad definitions of innocence: the American Adam and the Noble Savage.

  • Valerie Mcguire, Phd Candidate Italian Studies Department, New York University La Pietra, Florence; Spring, 2012
    Valerie McGuire, PhD Candidate Italian Studies Department, New York University La Pietra, Florence; Spring, 2012 The Mediterranean in Theory and Practice The Mediterranean as a category has increasingly gained rhetorical currency in social and cultural discourses. It is used to indicate not only a geographic area but also a set of traditional and even sacrosanct human values, while encapsulating fantasies of both environmental utopia and dystopia. While the Mediterranean diet and “way of life” is upheld as an exemplary counterpoint to our modern condition, the region’s woes cast a shadow over Europe and its enlightened, rationalist ideals—and most recently, has even undermined the project of the European Union itself. The Mediterranean is as often positioned as the floodgate through which trickles organized crime, political corruption, illegal immigration, financial crisis, and more generally, the malaise of globalization, as it is imagined as a utopian This course explores different symbolic configurations of the Mediterranean in twentieth- and twenty-first-century Italian culture. Students will first examine different theoretical approaches (geophysical, historical, anthropological), and then turn to specific textual representations of the Mediterranean, literary and cinematic, and in some instances architectural. We will investigate how representations of the Mediterranean have been critical to the shaping of Italian identity as well as the role of the Mediterranean to separate Europe and its Others. Readings include Fernand Braudel, Iain Chambers, Ernesto de Martino, Elsa Morante, Andrea Camillieri, and Amara Lakhous. Final projects require students to isolate a topic within Italian culture and to develop in situ research that examines how the concept of the Mediterranean may be used to codify, or in some instances justify, certain textual or social practices.

  • Fiera Internazionale Del Libro Di Torino
    Fiera Internazionale del Libro 2007 XX edizione Torino - Lingotto Fiere, 10-14 maggio I CONFINI, TEMA CONDUTTORE DELLA FIERA 2007 Torino, 16 aprile 2007 - L’edizione 2007, con cui la Fiera del libro festeggerà i suoi vent’anni, avrà per tema conduttore i confini. Un motivo che consentirà di affrontare alcuni tra i problemi più scottanti della nostra epoca. Il confine è infatti ciò che segna un limite, e dunque separa, ma insieme unisce, mette in relazione. E’ il limite che bisogna darsi per cercare di superarlo. E’ la porta del confronto con noi stessi e con gli altri. E’ una linea mobile che esige una continua ridefinizione. Un concetto che la Fiera intende appunto declinare nella sua accezione di apertura e di scambio. Il confine mette in gioco un’idea di polarità, di opposizioni chiamate a misurarsi, a rispettarsi e a dialogare. E allo stesso tempo ci rimanda l’immagine complessa, paradossale e contraddittoria del mondo d’oggi. Primo paradosso: un mondo sempre più virtualizzato e globale sembrerebbe avere attenuato o addirittura abolito il concetto di separatezza, sostituito da quello di un gigantesco mercato, che consuma ovunque i medesimi prodotti. Eppure i confini cancellati dai mercati ritornano drammaticamente sia nella crescente divaricazione tra Paesi ricchi e Paesi poveri, sia nell’affermazione di esasperate identità locali, opposte le une e altre, che si risolvono in tensioni, conflitti, guerre di tutti contro tutti. Le divisioni etniche e religiose, lungi dal conciliarsi in un dialogo possibile, scatenano opposizioni sempre più radicali e devastanti, che si affidano al braccio armato dei terrorismi. La miscela di cosmopolitismo, globalizzazione e fanatismi locali produce nuovi recinti e innalza nuovi muri.

  • Primo Levi's “Small Differences” and the Art of the Periodic Table
    1 Primo Levi’s “Small Differences” and the Art of The Periodic Table: A Reading of “Potassium” Murray Baumgarten Monday, August 8, 2011 The brief narratives that make up Primo Levi’s masterful account of a young man’s modern education take the reader through 21 elements of Mendeleev’s Periodic Table, from which the book takes its name. Each episode—Primo Levi calls them “moments”1 -- focuses on one element: we begin with Argon – the inert, noble gas echoing the passivity and accommodation of his Italian Jewish ancestors – and conclude more than 230 pages later with Carbon, whose ability to join with many other elements in what some have thought of as impure combinations, powers life, and generates the kinesthetic action of writing, with which the book concludes. Discourses of Science and of Art: The Two Primo Levis Playing the building blocks of the scientific elements against the personal experience of the narrator, Primo Levi constructs an interactive account. Here scientific analysis and technological know-how engage social observation and psychological 2 description—a combination discussed by several scholars – and noted in Rothberg and Druker’s account in Shofar. 2 The impact of the combination, as Pierpaolo Antonello notes, defines central features of the writing: “The kind of virtues that Levi fosters through his work in the lab” and seeks to lead the reader to engage are “multifold: his is a form of distributed, holistic intelligence, in which mental reasoning is combined with the sagacity of smell, touch, and the intuitiveness of the eye.” They build on the “other virtues .

  • Il Castellet 'Italiano' La Porta Per La Nuova Letteratura Latinoamericana
    Rassegna iberistica ISSN 2037-6588 Vol. 38 – Num. 104 – Dicembre 2015 Il Castellet ‘italiano’ La porta per la nuova letteratura latinoamericana Francesco Luti (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, España) Abstract This paper seeks to recall the ‘Italian route’ of the critic Josep Maria Castellet in the last century, a key figure in Spanish and Catalan literature. The Italian publishing and literary worlds served as a point of reference for Castellet, and also for his closest literary companions (José Agustín Goytisolo and Carlos Barral). All of these individuals formed part of the so-called Barcelona School. Over the course of at least two decades, these men managed to build and maintain a bridge to the main Italian publishing houses, thereby opening up new opportunities for Spanish literature during the Franco era. Thanks to these links, new Spanish names gained visibility even in the catalogues of Italian publishing houses. Looking at the period from the mid- 1950s to the end of the 1960s, the article focuses on the Italian contacts of Castellet as well as his publications in Italy. The study concludes with a comment on his Latin American connections, showing how this literary ‘bridge’ between Barcelona and Italy also contributed to exposing an Italian audience to the Latin American literary boom.

It has been deemed “ferocious,” “a death-defying linguistic tightrope act,” and a combination of “dark and spiky emotions” in reviews appearing in popular newspapers. Taking the considerable critical investment in the affective dimension of Ferrante’s work as a point of departure, my dissertation examines the representation of emotions in My Brilliant Friend and in two Italian novels written between the 1960s and the 1970s – La Storia (1974, History: A Novel) by Elsa Morante (1912-1985) and L’arte della gioia (The Art of Joy, 1998/2008) by Goliarda Sapienza (1924-1996).
