italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies Dear Dino, I am getting a bit more organized now (I am back from Rome and found a huge amount of email and other things to deal with, as usual). If you care to call me to discuss the issue of a possible writer or filmmaker as guest lecturer at the AAIS next year, tomorrow would actually be better than tonight (Tuesday March 23) since I am having guests to dinner tonight, I can be reached at home a 773 241-5617. Also, I would be glad to reivew Keala Jewell's book for Annali if no one else has claimed it. Best, Rebecca ps Hope the Petrarch conference went well! >Content-Type: text/plain >X-MIME-Autoconverted: from 8bit to quoted-printable by >kili.jiscmail.ac.uk id i2HLDPxe014839 > >italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies > >News from Annali d'italianistica and Carolina (Chapel Hill, NC), March >17, 2004. > >Dear Colleagues: > >1.
