The geographic circulation of writers and the cross-cultural encounters generated by this motion have led to a significant and ever-expanding literary and artistic output concerned with all forms of existing and creating between two worlds. This two-part program is devoted to\u00a0poets, novelists, playwrights, philosophers, essay writers, translators, film directors, and journalists who have given voice to these complex cultural collisions and interchanges as protagonists or witnesses. While Italy and the U.S. play central roles, the program highlights the truly global nature of this production by also addressing writers from Europe and Latin America.<\/p>\n
The first part of the program is\u00a0a symposium<\/a>\u00a0which includes academic presentations given in Italian (primarily) and in English by a group of international scholars investigating the cultural, psychological and social implications of multiple geographies. The second part is the\u00a0presentation of two recent groundbreaking anthologies<\/a>\u00a0(Italoamericana<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0Poets of the Italian Diaspora<\/em>) that compile some of the most relevant writings of the Italian diaspora. The program includes readings and live musical accompaniment.<\/p>\n \u2022 Presented by the\u00a0Inserra Chair in Italian and Italian American Studies<\/a>\u00a0(Italian Program in the Department of Spanish and Italian) at ÌÇÐÄvlog<\/p>\n \u2022 Co-sponsored by\u00a0Centro di Studi \u00abAldo Palazzeschi\u00bb\u00a0(Universit\u00e0 di Firenze),\u00a0Italian Poetry Review<\/em>,\u00a0Dipartimento di Filologia Classica e Italianistica- Alma Mater Studiorum Universit\u00e0 di Bologna, and\u00a0Global Education Center<\/a>\u00a0at ÌÇÐÄvlog\u200c\u200c\u200c\u200c<\/p>\n \u2022 In collaboration with\u00a0Centro Studi Sara Valesio<\/a>\u00a0\u200c\u200c\u200c\u200cand\u00a0Genus Bononiae<\/a>\u00a0\u2013 Musei nella Citt\u00e0, and Columbia University \u00a0\u200c<\/p>\n \u2022 Special thanks to The N Beverage Group and Gruppo Fooding<\/p>\n
