Pietro Mascagni and His Operas
Just twenty-six when the electrifying premiere of his Cavalleria Rusticana at the Teatro Costanzi in Rome catapulted the impoverished musician into sudden fame and fortune, Pietro Mascagni (1863-1945) went on to write fifteen more operas, including L'Amico Fritz, Guglielmo Ratcliff, Iris, Parisina, and Il Piccolo Marat. With privileged access to extensive primary sources, including Mascagni's 4,200 letters to Anna Lolli, his mistress for more than three decades, author Alan Mallach provides a compelling portrait of a flamboyant, combative, and emotional man who was passionately devoted to the Italian opera tradition and committed to innovation in musical language and dramatic form. Deftly co...

Italian Discourse
Using the Natural Semantic Metalanguage methodology, Gian Marco Farese presents a comprehensive analysis of the most important Italian cultural keywords and cultural scripts that foreign learners and cultural outsiders need to know to become linguistically and culturally proficient in Italian. Farese focuses on the words and speech practices that are used most frequently in Italian discourse and that are uniquely Italian: both untranslatable into other languages and reflective of salient aspects of Italian culture and society. Italian Discourse: A Cultural Semantic Analysis sheds light on ways in which the Italian language is related to Italians’ character, values, and way of thinking, and it does so in contrastive perspective with English. Each chapter focuses on a cultural keyword, tracing the term through novels, plays, poems, and songs. Italian Discourse will be an important resource for anyone interested in Italian studies and Italian linguistics, as well as in semantics, cultural studies, linguistic anthropology, cognitive linguistics, intercultural communication, and translation.

Community/architecture
In che termini l’architettura interpreta l’esigenza comunitaria nell’era della globalizzazione e della conseguente evoluzione dei fenomeni urbani anche alla luce di una crescita esponenziale dell’espressione comunitaria virtuale? Partendo da questo primo interrogativo critico il Festival raccoglie una serie di materiali e testimonianze che dimostrano anche il superamento dell’identificazione esclusiva del tema con le grandi tipologie collettive pubbliche, architettoniche e urbane, dell’esperienza storica. Tuttavia, pur attraverso il rilievo di fenomeni insediativi non caratterizzati, articolazioni tematiche differenziate e contributi apparentemente riferibili alla soggettività d...
