The Mask and the Face; a Satire in Three Acts
This witty satire from Chester Bailey Fernald and Luigi Chiarelli tells the story of a foppish aristocrat who tries to conceal his true identity by wearing a mask. But when his ruse is uncovered, he must confront the consequences of his deception--and learn to face the world unmasked. With sharp dialogue and comic timing, The Mask and the Face is a delightful romp through the world of high society.

Travels and Translations
This volume explores the fascinating interactions and exchanges between British and Italian cultures from the early modern period to the present. It looks at how these exchanges were mediated through personal encounters, travel writings, and translations, involving a variety of protagonists: explorers, writers, poets, preachers, diplomats and tourists. In particular, this book examines the understanding of Italy as a destination and set of locations, each with their own distinctive geographical character, during a period which saw the creation of the modern Italian state. It also charts the shifts in travelling activity during this period, from early explorers and cartographers, via those taking part in the Grand Tour in the 18th and 19th centuries, to more modern poet-travellers and blogging tourists. Drawing upon literary studies, history, art history, cultural studies, translation studies, sociology and socio-linguistics, this volume takes a cross-disciplinary approach to its rich constellation of ‘cultural transactions’.
