The Red "Lega"
A Conversation with Gianfranco Azzali (Micio) Giuseppe Morandi Paolo Barbaro Claudia Cavatorta, (Università di Parma) Established in 1967 and still active today, the Lega di Cultura di Piadena (a small town in the province of Cremona in the northern Italian Po Valley) was modeled and named after the red unions (leghe rosse) that at the turn of the century supported the battles of the field workers in that part of the country, raising a class conscience and attempting to put into practice socialist ideals. Forty years later, two of the founders of the Lega - its president Gianfranco (Micio) Azzali and internationally acclaimed photographer and documentarian Giuseppe Morandi - discuss their grassroot work and political and cultural activism. On the occasion of The Italian Festival of the Arts and Humanities: An Italian Sense of Place: Land and Identity held at Montclair State University.

The Missing Italian Nuremberg. Cultural Amnesia and Postwar Politics (Palgrave: 2007)
By Michele Battini A book presentation with the author and Marta Petrusewicz(CUNY Grad. Ctr) and Nadia Urbinti (Columbia U.) Moderated by Ruth Ben-Ghiat(NYU) Introduced by Michele Battini, a Professor of Modern European History and Political Thought at the University of Pisa explores in this book the failure to bring to trial the military command of Nazi power in Italy. This lack of an "Italian Nuremberg" resulted in an enormous historical misrepresentation of the Nazi occupation of Italy and threatens to change our collective memory of the past. On the occasion of the Giorno della Memoria (in collaboration with Centro Primo Levi and The Italian Cultural Institute) For a full description of the programs for the Giorno della Memoria visit: http://www.primolevicenter.org and http://www.iic.esteri.it Co-sponsored by the Remarque Institute (NYU) Tuesday, February 5 at 6pm TOP |

Towards a Gendered History of Italian Literature
Conference organized by Department of Italian Studies Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò Istituto Italiano di Scienze Umane Friday and Saturday, February 8, 9 The aim of this two-day conference is to explore the implications of a full integration of gender as an analytic category within the study of Italian history. In recent decades the literary contribution of Italian women writers has received renewed critical interest. The rise of women?s studies has enabled sustained critiques of the exclusion of women from the traditional literary canon. This conference departs from critical approaches that focus on ?women in x, y, or z? and examines, instead, attitudes toward gender in literary texts through the lenses of the competing ideological systems to which authors subscribe, and the changing material and social contexts of literary production and consumption. FRIDAY, February 8 1:30pm WELCOME Stefano Albertini (Director, Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò, New York University) Ruth Ben-Ghiat (Chair, Department of Italian Studies, New York University) Aldo Schiavone (Director, Istituto Italiano di Scienze Umane) Introduction Nadia Fusini (Università di Roma "La Sapienza") KEYNOTE SPEAKER Teodolinda Barolini (Columbia University) Towards a Gendered History of Italian Literature 3:15-5:15pm PANEL I: MEDIEVAL Speakers Jane Tylus (New York University) Writing St. Catherine.

Banana and Booh in Security
by Susan Tenneriello a Staged Reading by Daniel Manley (Booh), Donna Mitchell (Banana), Andrea Stover (Martha) Directed by Andrea Stover Emily Vescht, Katie Clancy, Kelley Natella, and Ana Wu Banana and Booh celebrate comic duos and wacky Yankee storytellers with a discordant twist. Set in an airport, this quirky pair are cast offs, contemporary archetypes derived from nineteenth-century Yankee storytellers. The play shares characteristics with these wide-eyed, spirited journeymen, whose itinerant adventures became the mythos of a national character. Banana and Booh (the wanderer and the hero) embody our historical landscape. Banana has her own idiom, a contemporary logic, which is the playwright's attempt to recast for the theatre, a heightened, poetic language in order to tell the stories of our times. Susan Tenneriello is assistant professor of theatre in the Fine and Performing Arts Department at Baruch College. Banana and Booh in Security was originally commissioned by America-in-Play.

Value, Riches and Luxury in Today's Life
a Lecture by Claudio Baccarani (Professor of Management, University of Verona) The business world is currently dealing with the issue of time and is realizing that the the answer does not lie in making life faster.

Claudio Baccarani is the author of several academic works and books such as Diario di viaggio sul treno che non va in nessun posto. Riflessioni per chi vive l'impresa (Giappichelli, 2005) and Dalla penombra alla luce: un saggio sul cinema per lo sviluppo manageriale (Giappichelli Editore, 2003, in cooperation with Federico Brunetti).

Made in Italy (Lost & Found in New York)
A monologue by Carol Crespo Mica Bagnasco performed by Mica Bagnasco This one-woman show is about an aspiring Italian actress who, bored to death, leaves her little village by the pre Alps and goes to Manhattan to learn English where, instead, she discovers therapy! Martina Castiglione is the protagonist of this geographic and psychological journey into self discovery. Her ingenuity and naiveté will take her places she had never dreamed of going before. Trough a series of poignant and funny vignettes we see Martina's transformation from a gullible hick to a sophisticated city girl. The psychological and cultural changes she is able to endure will make her a new person, yet, she remains just as endearing and engaging as she was before she left her little village. Mica Bagnasco was born and grew up in Northern Italy. She studied acting with Vittorio Gassman and Jeanne Moreau and in the late 80's moved to New York and decided to stay. Here she has performed works by Pirandello, Agatha Christie and Mario Fratti. In 2003 Mica translated Our Fathers by Italian author Luigi Lunari in which she interpreted the role of Rosemary Kennedy at the Samuel Beckett Theatre. "Duse's Fever" a one-woman show about the great Italian actress Eleonora Duse is Mica's latest work. The play is also her first solo as a writer and was performed at the Kirk Theatre at Theatre Row in december 2006. http://www.micabagnasco.com Tuesday, March 11 at 6pm TOP |

Adelfi
A book presentation with the author Paolo Mastrolilli with Maurizio Molinari (La Stampa) and Antonia Monda (La Repubblica/NYU) Adelfi tells the story of two Italian brothers that during WWII took opposite sides, when Italy signed the September 8 1943 armistice with the US and the UK. The eldest was a Navy intelligence officer based in Rome, and decided to join the Military clandestine resistance to fight the Nazis that were occupying Italy. The youngest was a Bersaglieri officer, prisoner of the British in India, and refused to cooperate with the former enemy. Both made their dramatic and contradictory decisions convinced that there was no other way to defend Italy's dignity and their personal honor. The story is real, based on documents never published before. PAOLO MASTROLILLI was born in Rome on 1965. He travels back and forth from Rome to New York and is the head of the editorial of Esteri del Tg1 RAI. He has written Hackers.

The Welles Mission to Rome 1940
A talk by Robert L. Miller As Italy was still "non-belligerent," Franklin D. Roosevelt decided to explore the thinking of the enigmatic Italian dictator and his son in law who were already in Hitler's ominous shadow. FDR dispatched his trusted personal friend and Under Secretary of State, Sumner Welles, to visit Mussolini and Galeazzo Ciano. Italy was viewed as a potential broker in a potential peace agreement. Political tensions and intrigue were high in the United States, as Roosevelt was considering whether or not to run for a third term as president. An episode that remains mysterious and largely neglected by major historians. Robert L. Miller is founder and editor of Enigma Books specializing in contemporary history, he is also the translator and publisher of Renzo De Felice's Storia degli ebrei italiani sotto il fascismo , and of Galeazzo Ciano's Diario 1937-1943 .
