All rights are reserved. ​ ​ HIST/SOC/ENG 360: The Italian American Experience: An Interdisciplinary Perspective Course Syllabus Instructor: Elgin K. Eckert ​ Credits: 3 ​ Contact Hours: 45 ​ Class Hours: TBA. ​ Office Hours: TBA ​ Course Type: Standard Course ​ Lab Fee: 10 € ​ Course Description This course will focus on the history of Italian immigration to the US and on the contribution of Italians to the formation of a collective American cultural identity. It will examine the history of Italian American immigration to the US and the experience and depiction of Italian identity (as well as its related themes of ethnic identity and cultural conflict) in American society, especially after the turn of the Twentieth century. Students will analyze the historical reasons of why Italians left their homeland and look at the conditions of their voyages and first arrival in the United States. The course will then go on to examine the conditions, treatment, and cultural experiences of the immigrants in their new home, and to consider which changes old-world traditions (familial, sexual, political, social) underwent. Course purpose: This course will introduce students to Italian American history and investigate how the specific experiences of this immigrant group have contributed to forming a “larger” American identity. It will provide students with interdisciplinary tools for investigating cultural history, which provide a foundation for the continued study in various fields. The course will get students to apply knowledge gained about one particular cultural and historical experience to similar experiences throughout history and in the contemporary world.

  • Fasanella, Marc (2017) Images of Optimism, (With Essay by Leslie Umberger and Chronology by Paul S
    Journal of Working-Class Studies Volume 3 Issue 1, June 2018 Zandy Fasanella, Marc (2017) Images of Optimism, (with essay by Leslie Umberger and chronology by Paul S. D’Ambrosio), Pomegranate, Portland, Or. Review by Janet Zandy A reproduction in a book is no substitute for actually standing before a great painting, taking in its size, color, brush strokes, and the power of its intellect and emotion. This new book on Ralph Fasanella (1914-1997), the great narrative painter of the working classes, comes close to that visual, physical experience. So much more than a museum catalog or coffee table art book, Images of Optimism is charged with a palpable fusion of artistic expression and political consciousness. Designed with insight about the grand scale of Fasanella’s epical paintings and the telling details of his visual narratives, tuned to the challenge of reproducing his vibrant colors and dark hues, this book opens working-class history and worker art to a new generation. If you detect a whiff of Gramsci’s ‘pessimism of intellect, optimism of will’ in the title, you won’t be disappointed. Such curatorial labels as outsider, folk, primitive, regional, even self-taught, ill fit Ralph Fasanella’s scope and political vision. In her Introduction, ‘Ralph Fasanella: Lest We Forget,’ Leslie Umberger, curator of folk art at the Smithsonian American Art Museum in Washington, D.C., eschews such categories, choosing ‘art of conviction’ (p. 9) as a better descriptor. She begins by tracing Ralph Fasanella’s roots in working-class immigrant culture. The son of Italian immigrants Giuseppe (Joe) and Ginevra Fasanella, Ralph grew up in working-class neighborhoods in lower Manhattan and the Bronx.
