CALL FOR PAPERS
"Shifting Souths: New Perspectives in Italian Cultures"
September 17-18, 2005
University of Connecticut, Storrs, Connecticut
In the era of globalization, the concepts of South and Southerness have
undergone fundamental changes, thereby begging the reassessment of old,
often vexing questions. The negotiation of local, regional identities
alongside the creation of supranational and transnational communities
and organizations (i.e. the European Union, the Global Market, the
Internet) forces us to rethink the many ontologies of the South
inherited from a rich Italian literary, historiographic and cinematic
tradition: from the scuola sicilianaand Boccaccio to Vico, Cuoco,
Croce, Verga, Pirandello, Lussu, Gentile, Gramsci, Carlo Levi,
Sciascia, Consolo, Lina Wertmüller, Amelio, Salvatores and many others.
