Silences and Divided Memories
The Istrian Peninsula, which is made up of modern-day Croatia, Slovenia, and Italy suffered from the so-called "Istrian exodus" after the Second World War. This book looks at this difficult, silenced past and shifts the usual focus from migrants to those who stayed behind and to the new immigrants who came to the “emptied” towns.The research, based on individual memories, deals with silences and competing national discourses, reasons to stay and leave, hybrid border ethnic identities, and the renewal of Istrian society and its new social relations. It is a self-critical reflection on an ignored chapter of national history, which, with an empathetic approach, allows the silence to speak.
Forgotten Italians
Scholarship on Italian emigration has generally omitted the Julian-Dalmatians, a group of Italians from Istria and Dalmatia, two regions that, in the wake of World War Two, were ceded by Italy to Yugoslavia as part of its war reparations to that country. Though Italians by language culture, and traditions, it seems that this group has been conveniently excised from history. And yet, Julian-Dalmatians constitute an important element in twentieth-century Italian history and represent a unique aspect of both Italian culture and emigration.

La seduzione dell'altrove
'Io sono nata viaggiando. Ho saputo solo più tardi, da grande, che il viaggio era un male di famiglia.' Partita per Tokyo ad appena un anno di età, abituata alle valigie e al contatto con l'altro sin da bambina, con il tempo Dacia Maraini ha fatto del viaggio un destino, un modo di vita. In queste pagine, che raccolgono racconti, articoli e reportage, offre al lettore uno spaccato del mondo come è apparso ai suoi occhi vagabondi, dall'Africa nera delle savane e delle baraccopoli affogate nei fumi della diossina all'Europa pasciuta, dall'Oriente che dimentica inesorabilmente le proprie radici ai ricchi campus degli States, alle città del Sudamerica cariche di prezioso passato. Attraverso le sue parole, che si intrecciano e rievocano brani, visioni e passaggi firmati da grandi scrittori come Marguerite Yourcenar, Henry James e molti altri, i luoghi ripongono la maschera che indossano a beneficio del turista e svelano finalmente la loro anima.

Literarische Mehrsprachigkeit im österreichischen und slowenischen Kontext
Die Erforschung literarischer Mehrsprachigkeit befindet sich in einer Phase der Konsolidierung, aber auch zunehmender theoretischer, methodologischer und kontextueller Diversifikation. Vor dem Hintergrund des zu Einsprachigkeit tendierenden Literaturbetriebs erörtern die Beiträge grundlegende literatursystemische und gesellschaftliche Fragen sowie neue konzeptuelle Zugänge zu kleinen, minoritären, überregionalen, polyphonen, migrantischen oder transkulturellen Literaturen. Zum anderen beleuchten sie anhand von Texten minoritärer oder migrierter Autor*innen wie Florjan Lipu, Peter Handke, Vladimir Vertlib, Tomer Gardi, Goran Vojnovi, Josip Osti, Ivan Tavar, Fulvio Tomizza, Diego Runko, Ada Christen und Zofka Kveder unterschiedliche Formen und Funktionen literarischer Ein- und Mehrsprachigkeit mit Fokus auf den österreichischen und slowenischen Kontext einschließlich Friaul-Julisch Venetiens und Istriens. Die Publikation richtet sich gleichermaßen an ein interessiertes Fachpublikum wie an Unterrichtende und Studierende.
