I spent 8 days in Lucca in Tuscany at a cooking school a couple of summers ago — absolutely fabulous! I love Italy. The food was out of this world and the people loved to stuff me silly. I had one of the most amazing dishes of my life—fluffy light gnocchi with pesto sauce. I had a foodgasm right there are the table! Alas, I now have 3 small children and my traveling is over for quite a few years. In the meantime, I am learning to cook authentic dishes! I loved Venice such a cliche I know. The gelato was so very delicious. I also remember staying in a dorm in a convent on Murano. Three years ago we spent two weeks in Le Marches and Umbria only staying at agriturismi. I cannot say how wonderful and totally Italian the experience was. For a very authentic trip I would suggest that travelers go off the beaten path and visit the less traveled regions. Spent 10 days in Rome — fabulous city! Though my best day of the trip was the cooking class we took in the medieval hilltop village of Toffia, which is located in Central Italy in Sabina. Toffia and the surrounding villages are self-supporting, growing and sharing their wonderful food within their communities. We cooked with only local ingredients and some of the best olive oil I have ever tasted. It was a wonderful day and a delicious meal shared with very kind, welcoming people. Lombardia and Piemonte by far! I loved the small towns in these two regions, and we started off the experience by staying at la Torrazzetta near Milano. Very welcoming family and workers; they make their own wine. I would love to do much more traveling and eating! I recently spent two weeks in Italy with my husband and another couple…loved it all. Picking my favorite is very hard. But I think I would have to choose Sienna. The entire Tuscany region is amazingly beautiful, the people so friendly and the food and wine amazing! You live in a wonderful country and I look forward to going back there someday!! My dad was born in the Veneto region and his entire family is still there. I have visited several times, but I think my favorite is being anywhere in the alps. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway opportunity and good luck to everyone. But really, any place in Italy will do! The book looks gorgeous, and thanks for the opportunity to win a copy! The food throughout Italy was wonderful — the research for writing this book must have been Italian Farmers Table: Authentic Recipes and Local Lore from Northern Italy My girlfriend and I planned our first trip to Europe last May. We planned to spend 10 days in Italy. We were both looking forward to the trip more than anything, but had to cancel due to extenuating circumstances. We will be rescheduling this trip very soon and cannot wait to come!! I spent a week in Italy about 10 years ago, and while I loved it all, I would have to say Vernazza part of Cinque Terre was my favorite. I would love to go back there. Big change but there is a beauty that is released when you see the Duomo and other architectural buildings. We go to the Tuscan country house, where we have olive trees that make wonderful oil every year. We have also planted Italian Farmers Table: Authentic Recipes and Local Lore from Northern Italy crops of different kinds of vegetables with competition from the slugs, porcupines and wild bores. When the summer heat hits big highs in Florence, we trek to the Dolomites. Nothing beats the beauty and tranquility of the Alps. What a dream trip! Thanks for the chance to win the book! I spent about a week in Italy 10 years ago. I got to visit Naples and Florence as well and though I loved them both, Rome is where my heart is. The food, the history, the art… and hearing the language everywhere is so beautiful. I cannot win, as I live in the UK but I love to places…. Lake Como and the area, so beautiful…and Liguria…Favourite?? I think I would have to go for Italian Farmers Table: Authentic Recipes and Local Lore from Northern Italy, hard choice, but you can get to France to, and all the wonderful little towns on the italian riveria coastline. Michelle, Me. Send the book to me. I need it bad. I am a terrible cook of our beloved Italian foods and for me Campania is right on target. Poor little flowers died in vain…. Italian Farmers Table: Authentic Recipes and Local Lore from Northern Italy love love love both north and south Italian…. I will eat everything! My grandfather was from Ascoli Piceno, and while most of my immediate family have visited Italy, I Italian Farmers Table: Authentic Recipes and Local Lore from Northern Italy not managed the trip. We went to a small restraunt and asked for the specialty of the house. They served that dish. When it was time for dessert they asked what I would like and I asked for clams and linguinne again. Oh so good!!!!!!!!!!! Basaldella di Vivaro. Small town just northeast of Venice. This is where my dad is from and there are still many family members there. Of course, anywhere in Italy would make me happy! The book would be a great start! My absolute favorite area is the Chianti region of Tuscany. I recently visited Rome and loved it all! But I am anxious to visit Tuscany and Lombardy as soon as possible! Thanks for great comments thus far! My favorite region of Italy is Calabria of course; however Sicily is close second! My parents were born just outside of Reggio Calabria in a small mountainside village called Pellegrina a 10 minute drive from the sea and Bagnara Calabra. The southern part of Italy has some undiscovered gems both from a culture and food perspective! Best, Vince Scordo. My comment is not for winning the book, but rather to thank you for this post. A lovely write up with beautiful images. This is a wonderful way to introduce your fans to a wonderful resource and two amazing people. BTW — Venice. Vince Scordo. This is a tough one. Having been to several cities in Italy, I would say that Siena and Rome were among the Italian Farmers Table: Authentic Recipes and Local Lore from Northern Italy. My greatest memory of the Siena area was a tour of a small winery in Montalcino. And Rome had a great combination of history, hipness and solid food if you have a good guide to help you find the little gems. My favorite city is Ascoli Piceno, a gorgeous, unknown place that I was blessed to call home for nearly three years.

UK: Legoland cancels Muslim family fun day in fear of “guest and employee safety” – Legoland cancelled a family outing organized by a prominent Muslim scholar in fear of guest and staff safety after they received a number of threatening calls, emails and social media posts. The family fun day which was organised by Sheikh Haitham al Haddad of the Muslim Research and Development Foundation (MRDF) for Sunday 9th March and would not be going ahead after a barrage of violent messages were made by far- right Islamophobic extremists. The English Defence League, Casuals United and other far-right groups vowed to hold a protest outside Legoland, many threatening to use violence to prevent the family outing. Legoland issued the following statement: The Legoland Windsor Resort prides itself on welcoming everyone to our wonderful attraction; however due to unfortunate circumstances the private event scheduled for Sunday 9th March will no longer take place. This was an incredibly difficult made after discussions with the organisers and local Thames Valley Police, following the receipt of a number of threatening phone calls, emails and social media posts to the Resort over the last couple of weeks. These alone have led us to conclude that we can no longer guarantee the happy fun family event which was envisaged or the safety of our guests and employees on the day – which is always our number one priority. “Sadly it is our belief that deliberate misinformation fuelled by a small group with a clear agenda was designed expressly to achieve this outcome.

All participants were also given information on how to access this content on the internet via the Humans of Europe - Europe for Humans Facebook page. Foreword Humans of Europe – Europe for Humans was a UK-wide campaign launched by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD) in 2017 and 2018. When this project was conceived, the aim was to highlight some of the thoughts and feelings of everyday citizens on Europe. But how could these thoughts be conveyed in an intuitive and powerful way? We decided to take to the streets and have an open discourse with people from all over the UK - mostly from Brighton, Bristol, Glasgow and London - from all walks of life and share the results through social media. By combining portrait photography and conversation extracts, the public were invited to share in the personal narratives of those people on any aspect of Europe. Combining these media allowed us to establish a connection with people we might usually never have crossed paths with and gain impressions of our commonalities, as well as disparities of thought with regards to Europe.

  • Singing Off Charnel Steps: the War Poetry of Emily Dickinson
    SINGING OFF CHARNEL STEPS: THE WAR POETRY OF EMILY DICKINSON AND ELIZABETH BARRETT BROWNING by LEIGH-ANNE URBANOWICZ MARCELLIN (Under the Direction of Douglas Anderson) ABSTRACT Emily Dickinson and Elizabeth Barrett Browning are not known primarily as war poets. However, Dickinson addressed the American Civil War in both her letters and in a substantial number of poems, while Barrett Browning wrote extensively about the Risorgimento, the struggle of the Italian states for independence and unification during much of the nineteenth century. The first chapter of this project treats Dickinson’s letters that refer to the war, revealing how the poet engaged with this conflict in her correspondence with her Norcross cousins, Samuel and Mary Bowles, and Thomas Wentworth Higginson. In the second chapter, Dickinson’s war poetry is examined in detail. These poems about the soldiers who fall in battle and those who mourn them do not present a coherent political view, but rather suggest multiple stories and meanings. The third chapter includes poems less directly related to the war: poems about peace, revolution, patriotism, race, and the wars within nature and within ourselves. These works show how integral the Civil War was to Dickinson’s world view. The fourth and final chapter investigates Barrett Browning’s political and martial poems, focusing on three areas: her hero-worship, her position as an English poet writing about Italy, and her treatment of gender in these works. An examination of these themes illuminates the complexity of Barrett Browning’s Risorgimento poetry and the extent to which she wrestled with the political, philosophical, and social issues the Risorgimento brought to the fore.
