hen as a singer-songwriter, before turning to writing crime fiction.
His first thriller, Io uccido (2002), sold 3.5 million copies in Italy only=
, and established him as one of the most popular contemporary Italian writ=
ers. Other titles include: Niente di vero tranne gli occhi (2004), Fuori da=
un evidente destino (2006), Pochi inutili nascondigli (2008) and Io sono D=
io (2009).
His novels have appeared in translation in France, Germany, Greece, Hungary=
, Norway, the Netherlands, Poland, Russia, Spain and Sweden. Io uccido is a=
vailable in English translation in the U.S.A., with the title I Kill (2008)=
, and it will soon be published by Constable&Robinson in the UK.

At the end of the corridor go through the doors on the left, follow the cor=
ridor round to the right and then to the left.

Italian Writers in Leeds
Italian Writers in Leeds is a series of events featuring some of the most i=
nteresting and exciting contemporary Italian writers. It was launched in 20=
07 by the Department of Italian at the University of Leeds, in collaboratio=
n with the Italian Consulate in Manchester.
The aim of the series is to increase awareness of contemporary Italian writ=
ers in the UK and at the same time to bring these writers to the North of E=
ngland, reflecting the interest in Italian issues in the region. An account=
of the writer's visit, in the form of an interview or discussion, will be =
published under the 'Writer's Desktop' rubric, in the journal The Italianis=
t.
Each year an Italian writer is invited to visit the Department and to give =
a lecture or lead a discussion, followed by questions. After Marcello Fois =
(May 2007), Giancarlo De Cataldo (January 2008) and Massimo Carlotto (Novem=
ber 2008), we are pleased to welcome Giorgio Faletti (October 2009).
If you would like to be kept informed about future events in the series, pl=
ease contact Gigliola Sulis at [log in to unmask], or visit www.leeds.ac.u=

(CISSGE)
Annual Conference
=20
Call for Papers

'Gender, Agency and Violence: European Perspectives from Medieval Times
to the Present Day'
=20
(to be held: IGRS, London: 18th and 19th March 2010)
=20
=20
=20
Papers are invited for a two-day conference that explores the cultural
impact and the role of men and women who stand out in terms of the acts
of violence they employ, whether directed against a community as a
whole; against individuals; or explicitly against the opposite sex.
Papers consider whether such (for example historical, mythical, artistic
or fictional) characters who cross accepted boundaries are indicative of
particular periods of time and / or pursue a personal agenda. While in
recent years, studies of women as victims and as perpetrators have
increased in number, this conference is concerned with both men and
women as violent agents.
=20
The conference takes an interdisciplinary approach and seeks to
establish potential patterns across times, genres and boundaries. It
pursues how violent men and women mark the long-term memory of
communities and to what degree male and female acts of violence allow
for comparisons in terms of their treatment in society. Other
considerations include
=20
- means, types and images of violence
- the importance of violent characters as potential role-models or how
they act as deterrents=20
- the promotion of ideas or change through unconventional methods
- the cross-cultural influence of violent individuals
=20
=20
A selection of papers will be published.

Dear italian-studies colleagues,
It may be the case that you accidentally -- or purposefully -- delete
a message from the list but then wish you could retrieve it. You can:
you can search for it at the list's archives, at:
https://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/cgi-bin/webadmin?A0=ITALIAN-STUDIES
The archives also give the address of the person who sent the
original message, so if you need to contact that person, it is simple
to do so directly. (In this way, you do not need to send your message
to the entire list).
Best wishes to all,
Kim

Dear italian-studies colleagues,
In the message Gregory Pell kindly sent to our list on 22 October, he
said, in his very first paragraph:
> Dear colleagues,
>
> below, you will find a list of books still available for review for
> Forum Italicum. Should you be interested, send your request, contact
> information and mailing address to Donna Severino at:
> [log in to unmask]
>
Gregory has instructed us very clearly on what to do. If you want to
review a book for Forum Italicum (an excellent journal!), there is no
need to send your replies to the list. Over one thousand other people
probably have little interest in knowing which books you would like
to review. (They will be interested in reading your actual review in
Forum Italicum, but that is a different matter!)
Moreover -- assuming the list software is working (and I have checked
-- it is working) -- if you send a message to the list, you receive
an automated reply, asking you if you are certain you wish for your
message to go to the list; and if you are, you are asked to click on
a link. I do not understand why someone, receiving such a message and
noting that their original message was sent to the list in error,
would persist in sending that message to the list.
In short: please read the instructions that are sent to you, and act
in accordance with them. If you have any questions whatsoever about
the list or how it functions, please write to the list owners at:
[log in to unmask]
Thank you!
Yours truly,

Dear Professor Bellati,
I=E2=80=99m writing on behalf of Phillip Usher, a professor in the French
department at Barnard College, to let you know of an upcoming lecture
at Barnard with Professor Giuseppe Gazolla about Marinetti's
unpublished translations of Mallarm=C3=A9 and which I think may be of
interest to yourself, as well as to faculty and students in your
department. I=E2=80=99d be grateful if you could pass on the information to
anyone you think might be interested. Many thanks in advance,
All best,
Penelope Meyers

MARINETTI, TRANSLATOR OF MALLARM=C3=89
A LECTURE WITH GIUSEPPE GAZZOLA
Monday, 11/02 6pm
Sulzberger Parlor
3rd Floor Barnard Hall
In this talk, Giuseppe Gazzola, a specialist of nineteenth century
Italian literature who teaches at SUNY Stonybrook, will discuss the
border crossings and literary connections between the Italian Futurist
Filippo Tommaso Marinetti (1876-1944) and the French symbolist
St=C3=A9phane Mallarm=C3=A9 (1842-1898). In particular, Gazzola will read fr=
om
and then discuss Marinetti=E2=80=99s unpublished translations of Mallarm=C3=
=A9,
with an eye to explaining how we can understand more about both poets
via this textual trace of influence. Gazzola will also talk about the
modern edition of these translations that he is currently preparing.
The talk is free and open to the public.

Sponsored by the Mellon Foundation as part of the Translation Across
the Disciplines lecture series.

Dear list members,
Durham's Department of Italian is pleased to announce the following
seminar by Dr Marco Barbon (Paris) and Neelam Srivastava (Newcastle):
Asmara Dream: A photographic presentation and discussion of Eritrea,
Italy's first overseas colony.
Abstract: Eritrea is one of the smallest African states, perched on the
coast of the Red Sea, in the Horn of Africa. Marco Barbon has just
published a book of photographs documenting the colonial architecture of
its capital, entitled Asmara Dream. The first part of the seminar will
introduce the topic of the book by tracing some aspects of Eritrea's
complex history; as Italy's first overseas colony, it was deeply marked
by the Italian presence, whose most visible traces can be seen in the
stunning modernist buildings of Asmara. This historical introduction
will be followed by a commentary on the photographic images. Starting
from a choice of images from the book, the author will talk about his
experience of Asmara and of how his initial ideas for the book developed
into the final project.
The Seminar will take place in Durham, School of Modern Languages and
Cultures, New Elvet, Elvet Riverside, DH1 3JT, Room A56 at 12 noon.=20

Dear Jim,
There are already some online journals relating to Italian Studies, such as=
the Bulletin of Italian Politics, available here: http://www.gla.ac.uk/pol=
itics/bulletinofitalianpolitics/
I am sure colleagues will be able to provide details of other online journa=
ls. While I agree that it is frustrating to wait for scholarly articles to =
come out in print, part of this time lag is due to the refereeing process.

Dear Jim,
Excellent idea. However, I would like to inform everyone that Forum
Italicum will be online starting January 2010. Forty-three years of
publication have been scanned and will be also available starting with the
new calendar year.

Dear Jim,
There are already some online journals relating to Italian Studies, such
as the Bulletin of Italian Politics, available here:
http://www.gla.ac.uk/politics/bulletinofitalianpolitics/
I am sure colleagues will be able to provide details of other online
journals. While I agree that it is frustrating to wait for scholarly
articles to come out in print, part of this time lag is due to the
refereeing process.

We at the University of California have recently inaugurated an
electronic journal of Italian studies whose first issue should see the
light by the end of November: California Italian Studies. =20
The first, double issue will feature more than 50 articles. Look for an
official announcement soon.
CIS is a new digital, peer-reviewed scholarly journal committed to
publishing in a timely manner the finest, most innovative, and most
potentially influential scholarly work being done internationally in the
field of Italian Studies, including topics related to Italy in any
discipline or cross-disciplinary and comparative field of inquiry, from
the Middle Ages to the present. CIS seeks contributions meeting one or
more of the following criteria: interdisciplinarity; comparativity;
criticality.

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear Jim,
=20
This seems to me an entirely sensible proposal, for all the reasons you
outline, and probably some others too such as the costs to libraries and
individuals of periodicals subscriptions. That said, I do know of at
least one initiative for admittedly a minority interest area of Italian
Studies which is shortly to launch from St Andrews (Scotland), i.e.,
Mosaici - http://www.st-andrews.ac.uk/~mosaici/index.php?sectID=3D7.
=20
Best wishes,

Cari colleghi,
I would like to propose an idea for discussion among colleagues on this
list: an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the present time, there
exists, to my knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line resource of
this type of which I am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted by
Michigan State University (www.h-net.org/~italy), which publishes timely
reviews of Italy-related books, and has discussion forums for specific
topics. Why shouldn't we have a similar resource for scholarly articles?
This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently, if I
submit an article to a journal, I must wait at least 6 months to hear a
response, then wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in
print. At that point, I can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on
the article and the ideas in it. Why should the flow of ideas and
information in the humanities be so slow? After all, in the hard
sciences, the on-line publication of articles and abstracts in a timely
manner has been the norm for many years, which generates immediate
feedback and advances the pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are the
humanities really different from the hard sciences in some fundamental
way? Or might we benefit also from such an accelerated rhythm of the
free and timely exchange of ideas? After all, we already have such
forums as this as a means of asking scholarly questions on a specific
topic. Why not extend this to articles as a whole?
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea.
I'm looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this
proposal.

I would like to propose an idea for discussion among colleagues on this =
list:
an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the present time, there =
exists, to my
knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line resource of this type of =
which I
am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted by Michigan State University
(www.h-net.org/~italy), which publishes timely reviews of Italy-related =
books,
and has discussion forums for specific topics. Why shouldn't we have a =
similar
resource for scholarly articles?<br>
This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently, if I =
submit an
article to a journal, I must wait at least 6 months to hear a response, =
then
wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in print. At that =
point, I
can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on the article and the =
ideas in
it. Why should the flow of ideas and information in the humanities be so =
slow?
After all, in the hard sciences, the on-line publication of articles and
abstracts in a timely manner has been the norm for many years, which =
generates
immediate feedback and advances the pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are =
the
humanities really different from the hard sciences in some fundamental =
way? Or
might we benefit also from such an accelerated rhythm of the free and =
timely
exchange of ideas? After all, we already have such forums as this as a =
means of
asking scholarly questions on a specific topic. Why not extend this to =
articles
as a whole?<br>
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea. =
I'm
looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this =
proposal.<br>

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear Jim and all colleagues,
I am a new entry in this mailing list, so maybe I should firstly introduce
myself.
My name is Veronica Periani and I am just starting a PhD at the University
of Birmingham, UK, on the connections between Italian contemporary
literature and Web 2.0, with a particular focus on the new literary trend
termed "New Italian Epic'. Although, for obvious reasons, I still don't
have any experience about articles' publication, I find interesting Jim's
reflections, especially the comparison he advances between publications
modalities in humanities and hard sciences.
If I understand correctly, what you propose, Jim, is not the creation of
another online journal, rather speeding up the peer-review process? In a few
words, extending the purpose of this mailing list, also including peer
review on articles by list members?
I think this could be feasible and not particularly complicated, if a
certain number of collegues were available. Let's wait and see what
happens...
P.S. By the way, I often make reference to this database of Italian
journals: http://www.italinemo.it/.
It includes Italian studies journals from all over the world.
Greetings,
Veronica.

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear Jim,
Couldn't agree more on the frustration. However, there are by now
several online journals in Italian Studies.
In many ways, rather than have a generic Italian Studies venture, it
would seem to be best to continue to develop sub-area specific e-
periodicals. The risk with a generic super-venture would be the size
and the identity of the operation.
On processing times. Web productions are quite time consuming and do
require investment and staff. So again, while it is great to have
these new facilities and expect faster processing times, we should
bear in mind that e-editors (i.e., busy academics) take on all roles,
going well beyond conventional editing, incl. web designing,
publishing and promoting.
Can I invite you and other list members to visit the EJGS - Edinburgh
Journal of Gadda Studies - http://www.arts.ed.ac.uk/italian/gadda/index.php
The EJGS is going for 10 next year. To mark the anniversary, the EJGS
Team is planning a series of events (soon to be announced to the list)
and a Decennial Special Edition.
All best,

an>Cari colleghi,<br>I would like to propose an idea for discussion among c=
olleagues on this list: an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the prese=
nt time, there exists, to my knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line r=
esource of this type of which I am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted b=
y Michigan State University (<a href=3D"http://www.h-net.org/~italy)">www.h=
-net.org/~italy)</a>, which publishes timely reviews of Italy-related books=
, and has discussion forums for specific topics. Why shouldn't we have a si=
milar resource for scholarly articles?<br>This proposal comes out of my per=
sonal experience. Currently, if I submit an article to a journal, I must wa=
it at least 6 months to hear a response, then wait another 8-15 months befo=
re the article appears in print. At that point, I can begin to receive feed=
back from colleagues on the article and the ideas in it. Why should the flo=
w of ideas and information in the humanities be so slow? After all, in the =
hard sciences, the on-line publication of articles and abstracts in a timel=
y manner has been the norm for many years, which generates immediate feedba=
ck and advances the pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are the humanities real=
ly different from the hard sciences in some fundamental way? Or might we be=
nefit also from such an accelerated rhythm of the free and timely exchange =
of ideas? After all, we already have such forums as this as a means of aski=
ng scholarly questions on a specific topic. Why not extend this to articles=
as a whole?<br>Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss=
this idea. I'm looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on thi=

Special guest: Natalia Aspesi, journalist, /La Repubblica/
Starting from the premise that emotions are historically and culturally=20
conditioned, this conference focuses on emotions in historical=20
perspective in Italy =96 an area whose modes of social interaction and=20
cultural production have long had an influential role in shaping ideas=20
about emotions well beyond its own geographical borders. Among the=20
themes examined by over 65 speakers will be
* Emotions, politics and public life
* The emotions of war, colonial conquest, victory and defeat
* Emotion in Italian art, music, literature and cinema
* Fascism as a politics of emotion
* The gendering of emotions
* Religion and the emotional imagination
* Italy=92s international influence on concepts of emotion
The conference is the first of its kind, and as the range of themes=20
suggests, it offers valuable potential for interdisciplinary exchange.=20
The keynote speakers are internationally pioneering scholars whose work=20
on the emotions has led the way in re-thinking major areas of research=20
such as politics and war. As well as bringing together established=20
scholars from Europe, the USA, and Australasia, the conference also=20
provides a forum for younger researchers to contribute to an approach=20
that places emotions at the forefront of humanities research rather than=20
seeing them as a by-product of other historical processes.
As the whole western world is increasingly forced to re-evaluate its=20
unsustainable addiction to consumption as the basis of happiness, this=20
focus on human emotions in historical perspective is particularly=20
timely. The conference therefore aims not only to develop new ways of=20
approaching research in its own subject areas, but also to contribute to=20
a broader process of reflection about the trajectories =96 past, present=20
and future =96 of western society.

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Among the Italian Studies journals, may I mention that Italian Studies
in Southern Africa (not a mainstream one, I am aware) is online at AJOL:
http://ajol.info/index.php/issa
Speaking of the proposal, I think that discussing new ways of
scholarly exchange of ideas is important, not only regarding online
journals, but also the ways in which conferences and meetings are
made. I went to a congress recently and I had to present a paper
within a one-and-half-hour panel with at least another ten-twelve
people. You can do the math about the speaking time we had. I really
doubt that the traditional paper presentation is fit for such a
crowded session (not to speak of questions and answers), and I was
wondering if some sort of preliminary exchange of material could in
some way help. Usually this kind of papers are not full-length
articles, but research-in-the-making presentations, so why not sending
online a work-in-progress version and use the face-to-face session for
real Q&A?
Cordiali saluti,
Giorgio Guzzetta

Cari colleghi=2C<br>I would like to propose an idea for discussion among co=
lleagues on this list: an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the presen=
t time=2C there exists=2C to my knowledge=2C no such journal=3B the only on=
-line resource of this type of which I am aware is the excellent H-Italy=2C=
hosted by Michigan State University (www.h-net.org/~italy)=2C which publis=
hes timely reviews of Italy-related books=2C and has discussion forums for =
specific topics. Why shouldn't we have a similar resource for scholarly art=
icles?<br>This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently=2C i=
f I submit an article to a journal=2C I must wait at least 6 months to hear=
a response=2C then wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in =
print. At that point=2C I can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on =
the article and the ideas in it. Why should the flow of ideas and informati=
on in the humanities be so slow? After all=2C in the hard sciences=2C the o=
n-line publication of articles and abstracts in a timely manner has been th=
e norm for many years=2C which generates immediate feedback and advances th=
e pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are the humanities really different from =
the hard sciences in some fundamental way? Or might we benefit also from su=
ch an accelerated rhythm of the free and timely exchange of ideas? After al=
l=2C we already have such forums as this as a means of asking scholarly que=
stions on a specific topic. Why not extend this to articles as a whole?<br>=
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea. I'm =
looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this proposal.<br>C=

Dear colleagues=2C

I was wondering whether anyone on the list might have a copy of any of the =
following films:
=20
Malemare (1997=2C Pasquale Marrazzo)
Rose e pistole (1999=2C Carla Apuzzo)
I cinghiali di Portici (2003/2006=2C Diego Olivares)
Ossidiana (2007=2C Silvana Maja)

None of these are commercially available and I=92ve been after them for qui=
te a while as background for a book I am writing. Any help that you can pro=

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear colleagues,
I am forwarding this to the list on behalf of Giovanni Porfido.
CALL FOR PAPERS
The Politics of Sexuality in Contemporary Italy=20
Guest Editors: Isabel Crowhurst (Birkbeck, University of London), Giovanni =
Porfido (University of Birmingham), and Chiara Bertone (Universit=E0 del Pi=
emonte Orientale).
The aim of this special issue is to discuss the politics of sexuality in co=
ntemporary Italian cultural and social life. The analysis of how sexuality =
may articulate citizenship, social inclusion/exclusion, belonging and parti=
cipation, racial, class and gender relations (Lister 2007, Bell and Binnie =
2000, Weeks 1998; Seidman 1997; Rubin 1982) is still a relatively under-res=
earched area of study in the Italian context. Nevertheless, recent heated d=
ebates and troubling events in Italian public life, including the increase =
in homophobic violence, disputes over same-sex partnerships and a new prost=
itution law, suggest that a rigorous critical engagement with these issues =
is much needed.=20
Key questions to be explored include: Which sexualities are constructed and=
treated as privileged and which are minoritized or/and stigmatized? What a=
ccounts for these distinctions (sexual orientation, 'race', ethnicity, disa=
bility, gender)? How/Do these differentiations map out onto policies and so=
cial practices? What are the tensions between and within dominant normative=
sexualities and minoritized ones?=20
Potential contributions might address the following issues and topics: sexu=
ality and 'the family'; heterosexual normativity; social and legal recognit=
ion of same-sex relationships; the regulation of sexual practices; reproduc=
tive rights; transgender recognition; sex work and prostitution; sexuality =
and politics; sexuality and religion; sexuality and migration; sexuality an=
d the constructions of 'the nation'; sexual rights; sexuality and the welfa=
re agenda.
The editors of Modern Italy have expressed a strong interest in dedicating =
the early 2013 issue of the journal to this theme. We therefore invite prop=
osals for high-quality interdisciplinary articles from different theoretica=
l and methodological approaches exploring the proposed theme, with a view t=
o further developing an understanding of sexual policies, politics and prac=
tices in contemporary Italy.=20
Expressions of interest in the form of 400-500 word abstracts and a brief C=
V should be sent to the guest-editors: [log in to unmask]; g.porfido@bha=
m.ac.uk and [log in to unmask] by 15th January 2010. We plan to no=
tify authors whether their abstracts have been accepted by early February 2=
010. To discuss ideas for submission in advance, or for further questions, =
please send an email to: [log in to unmask]

dy of Modern Italy published by Routledge, please visit: http://www.tandf.c=

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear colleagues,
please allow me to advertise Skepsi, the online postgraduate journal
of the School of European Culture and Languages, based at the
University of Kent, UK. While not strictly dedicated to Italian
studies, the journal welcomes proposals from all the humanities, with
special attention to modern European languages, thought and literature.
Submissions for the forthcoming third issue are now closed, and we
would like to announce that the fourth issue will be a collaborative
effort with the Centre for Medieval and Early Modern Studies, and will
be dedicated to 'Bad Behaviour'.
You can find more information at this website: http://www.kent.ac.uk/secl/journals/skepsi/index.html
or writing to me at the following address: [log in to unmask]
I hope this may be of interest to you,
with my best regards,
Alvise Sforza Tarabochia

I would like to propose an idea for discussion among colleagues on this =
list:
an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the present time, there =
exists, to my
knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line resource of this type of =
which I
am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted by Michigan State University
(<a href=3D"http://www.h-net.org/~italy">www.h-net.org/~italy</a>), =
which publishes timely reviews of Italy-related books,
and has discussion forums for specific topics. Why shouldn't we have a =
similar
resource for scholarly articles?<br>
This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently, if I =
submit an
article to a journal, I must wait at least 6 months to hear a response, =
then
wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in print. At that =
point, I
can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on the article and the =
ideas in
it. Why should the flow of ideas and information in the humanities be so =
slow?
After all, in the hard sciences, the on-line publication of articles and
abstracts in a timely manner has been the norm for many years, which =
generates
immediate feedback and advances the pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are =
the
humanities really different from the hard sciences in some fundamental =
way? Or
might we benefit also from such an accelerated rhythm of the free and =
timely
exchange of ideas? After all, we already have such forums as this as a =
means of
asking scholarly questions on a specific topic. Why not extend this to =
articles
as a whole?<br>
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea. =
I'm
looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this =
proposal.<br>

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear Colleagues,
The issue of electronic journals is very timely, and all those involved=20
in publishing have followed this fairly recent trend, which moves=20
precisely toward electronic publications.
For electronic publications, in this case journals, to be effective,=20
they must have the same high standards of traditional publications and=20
thus they may require as much time as traditional publications: see the=20
case of the new California Italian Studies, announced about a year ago,=20
and ready to appear shortly, as I read from Thomas Harrison's email.
As to Annali d'italianistica, the journal has a website=20
(www.ibiblio.org/annali), which contains the table of contents of all=20
issues, the introductory essay to recent volumes, and all book reviews=20
since 1998, freely accessible. I am considering expanding the electronic=20
publication of the journal.
What the initiator of this interesting debate had in mind, most likely,=20
may be a forum for discussion, some kind of blog (?), where one can post=20
one's research and receive some feedback from colleagues. Obviously this=20
list does also serve this purpose.
Concerning traditional journals, I would like to bring to the attention=20
of Italianists a journal published at Carolina, Romance Notes, open to=20
all of us. In fact the editor of the journal solicits submissions from=20
Italianists because historically essays on Italian issues have appeared=20
only sporadically. I am posting below pertinent information. For any=20
Hispanists of the list, I am also posting information about another=20
journal of our Department, Hispanofila.
Let's keep the discussion going.

*ROMANCE NOTES* is published three times a year. The journal accepts=20
articles on any literary, cultural, or linguistic topic dealing with=20
Romance studies. Articles can be written in any Romance language and in=20

Cited=94 at the end of the essay. The Editors have a policy of =93blind=20

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
I fully agree with Federica. The EJGS - Edinburgh Journal of Gadda
Studies is not only a journal, but also a set of online resources
(bibliographies, texts, glossaries, etc.) on a single author, of
invaluable utility to the specialists but also students and readers
generally. I think we need a lot more of these.
Of course broader venues for the publication of academic articles (or
simply the exchange of ideas) are also very much crucial. But on the
internet (unlike in traditional libraries) there's room for everything...
Yours,
Giuseppe Stellardi

I fully agree with Federica. The EJGS - Edinburgh Journal of Gadda
Studies is not only a journal, but also a set of online resources
(bibliographies, texts, glossaries, etc.) on a single author, of
invaluable utility to the specialists but also students and readers
generally. I think we need a lot more of these.<br><br>
Of course broader venues for the publication of academic articles (or
simply the exchange of ideas) are also very much crucial. But on the
internet (unlike in traditional libraries) there's room for
everything...<br><br>
Yours,<br>
Giuseppe Stellardi<br><br>

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear Jim, <br><br>
Couldn't agree more on the frustration. However, there are by now several
online journals in Italian Studies. <br><br>
In many ways, rather than have a generic Italian Studies venture, it
would seem to be best to continue to develop sub-area specific
e-periodicals. The risk with a generic super-venture would be the size
and the identity of the operation. <br><br>
On processing times. Web productions are quite time consuming and do
require investment and staff. So again, while it is great to have these
new facilities and expect faster processing times, we should bear in mind
that e-editors (i.e., busy academics) take on all roles, going well
beyond conventional editing, incl. web designing, publishing and
promoting. <br><br>
Can I invite you and other list members to visit the EJGS - Edinburgh
Journal of Gadda Studies -

The EJGS is going for 10 next year. To mark the anniversary, the EJGS
Team is planning a series of events (soon to be announced to the list)
and a Decennial Special Edition.<br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite="">italian-studies: Scholarly
discussions in any field of Italian studies Cari colleghi,<br>
I would like to propose an idea for discussion among colleagues on this
list: an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the present time, there
exists, to my knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line resource of
this type of which I am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted by
Michigan State University
(<a href="http://www.h-net.org/~italy)">www.h-net.org/~italy)</a>, which
publishes timely reviews of Italy-related books, and has discussion
forums for specific topics. Why shouldn't we have a similar resource for
scholarly articles?<br>
This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently, if I submit
an article to a journal, I must wait at least 6 months to hear a
response, then wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in
print. At that point, I can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on
the article and the ideas in it. Why should the flow of ideas and
information in the humanities be so slow? After all, in the hard
sciences, the on-line publication of articles and abstracts in a timely
manner has been the norm for many years, which generates immediate
feedback and advances the pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are the
humanities really different from the hard sciences in some fundamental
way? Or might we benefit also from such an accelerated rhythm of the free
and timely exchange of ideas? After all, we already have such forums as
this as a means of asking scholarly questions on a specific topic. Why
not extend this to articles as a whole?<br>
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea.
I'm looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this
proposal.<br>
Cordiali saluti.<br>

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies

the organizers of future conferences.

Cari colleghi,
l'idea di Jim Ward, cos=EC come altre idee formulate in risposta alla sua

convegno AAIS, non vi sarebbe posto per un paio di tavole rotonde in cui
dibattere almeno alcune di queste questioni "viva voce"...

italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Dear italian-studies colleagues,
If there are sufficient numbers of you that are interested, the
technical resources for such a forum, linked to our list, already are
in place (albeit very recently, so its arrival is well timed). I
propose to you that I consult my computing colleagues in this regard,
and get back to you in the next couple of weeks with further details.
Best wishes,
George Ferzoco

CALL FOR PAPERS:
=20
=20
Conference: Art Histories, Cultural Studies and the Cold War
=20
Date: Friday 24 September 2010
=20
Venue: Institute of Germanic & Romance Studies, University of London
=20
Keynote Speaker: Miranda Carter (author of Anthony Blunt: His Lives,
2001)
=20
=20
Study Day: Cold War Cities
=20
Date: Saturday 25 September 2010
=20
Venue: Institute of Germanic & Romance Studies, University of London
=20
Twenty years ago the world witnessed the most momentous geo-political
changes since the end of the Second World War: the fall of the Berlin
Wall,
the implosion of the Soviet Union and the emergence of the USA as the=20
global superpower. The period of the Cold War (c.1948-89) was one of=20
ideological struggle and profound cultural crisis, no less so than for
the=20
discipline of Art History, rooted in the ideals and aspirations of the=20
European Enlightenment. But the crucible of the Cold War also witnessed=20
the re-definition of Art History, the birth of the New Left and a
nascent=20
tradition of Cultural Studies.
=20
In 1952 Erwin Panofsky wrote a paper surveying Three Decades of Art
History in
the United States - an essay pervaded by an acute sense of how the
development=20
of the discipline of Art History, and the lives of individual art
historians, had been shaped by the momentous political events of the
1930s and 40s. In a specific reference to McCarthyism, Panofsky noted
how 'nationalism and intolerance' remained a terrifying threat to
academic freedom and that 'even when dealing with the remote past, the
historian cannot be entirely objective.' Although the situation=20
was less extreme in the UK, intellectuals and academics with left wing
sympathies such as Frederick (Frigyes) Antal, Francis Klingender and
Eric Hobsbawm still faced 'red baiting' and other challenges in gaining
employment in universities and other teaching-related posts.=20
=20
Writing in 1960 to Adrian Stokes about his book Art and Illusion, Ernst
Gombrich reflected on the 'considerable shock' with which he discovered
that Art History had been misused to propagate pseudo-historical myths
on both the Right and the Left.=20
Some decades later Peter Fuller was faced with a changing political
landscape and
the need to re-consider his own response to national identity and to the
Marxism he had cherished earlier in his career.=20
=20
This conference on Friday 24 September, organized by the department of
History & Philosophy of Art at the University of Kent, aims to explore
how the Cold War delineated approaches to Art History, Historiography
and Cultural Studies and how its conditions and constraints shaped the
professional careers and influenced the writings and ideas of scholars
and cultural theorists. We welcome a wide range of perspectives that
might include, for example, the use of particular methodologies, the
choice of specific subjects for analysis that were explicitly
politically motivated or contextualised readings of particular art
historical monographs or reviews of wider art historical topics, such as
'the Renaissance' or 'the history of Modern Art', as sites of displaced
ideological conflict.=20
=20
Alternatively, papers might involve the exploration of state patronage
and of the intellectual debates and cultural events around the visual
arts, whether overt in the form of Soviet Realism, or more covert as in
the CIA-funded Congress for Cultural Freedom. Contributions are not
confined to Anglo-Saxon Art History and we welcome Post-Colonial and
European perspectives (from both sides of the former Iron Curtain).=20
=20
A related study day on Saturday 25 September, organized by the Centre
for the Study of Cultural Memory (CCM) at the Institute of Germanic &
Romance Studies, will explore Cold War Cities. We welcome papers from a
variety of angles and disciplines, including history, art history, film,
architecture, politics, memory and cultural studies. Amongst other
things, papers may address: post-war memories; cities at the
centre/cities at the fringes; architecture, including divisive
architecture (e.g. walls); cities in film; the Eastern Bloc, especially
former Yugoslavia; utopian/distopian cities; cities and the space race;
migration; terrorism and the city.

Dear Listmenbers
I have followed your interesting discussion - and have noticed some titles =
I didn't knew. I wonder why nobody has mentioned Heliotropia
http://www.heliotropia.org/.
Heliotropia and Fulgor are both listed in "Directory of Open Access Journal=
s" http://www.doaj.org/doaj?func=3Dhome and now I ask: Why only these two?
Best regards

Subject: [I-S] A modest proposal
italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Cari colleghi,
I would like to propose an idea for discussion among colleagues on this lis=
t: an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the present time, there exists=
, to my knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line resource of this type =
of which I am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted by Michigan State Univ=
ersity (www.h-net.org/~italy), which publishes timely reviews of Italy-rela=
ted books, and has discussion forums for specific topics. Why shouldn't we =
have a similar resource for scholarly articles?
This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently, if I submit a=
n article to a journal, I must wait at least 6 months to hear a response, t=
hen wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in print. At that p=
oint, I can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on the article and th=
e ideas in it. Why should the flow of ideas and information in the humaniti=
es be so slow? After all, in the hard sciences, the on-line publication of =
articles and abstracts in a timely manner has been the norm for many years,=
which generates immediate feedback and advances the pursuit of knowledge i=
mmensely. Are the humanities really different from the hard sciences in som=
e fundamental way? Or might we benefit also from such an accelerated rhythm=
of the free and timely exchange of ideas? After all, we already have such =
forums as this as a means of asking scholarly questions on a specific topic=
. Why not extend this to articles as a whole?
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea. I'm =
looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this proposal.
Cordiali saluti.
Jim Ward, Berkeley, CA

I would like to propose an idea for discussion among colleagues on this lis=
t:
an on-line journal of Italian studies. At the present time, there exists, t=
o my
knowledge, no such journal; the only on-line resource of this type of which=
I
am aware is the excellent H-Italy, hosted by Michigan State University
(www.h-net.org/~italy), which publishes timely reviews of Italy-related boo=
ks,
and has discussion forums for specific topics. Why shouldn't we have a simi=
lar
resource for scholarly articles?<br>
This proposal comes out of my personal experience. Currently, if I submit a=
n
article to a journal, I must wait at least 6 months to hear a response, the=
n
wait another 8-15 months before the article appears in print. At that point=
, I
can begin to receive feedback from colleagues on the article and the ideas =
in
it. Why should the flow of ideas and information in the humanities be so sl=
ow?
After all, in the hard sciences, the on-line publication of articles and
abstracts in a timely manner has been the norm for many years, which genera=
tes
immediate feedback and advances the pursuit of knowledge immensely. Are the
humanities really different from the hard sciences in some fundamental way?=
Or
might we benefit also from such an accelerated rhythm of the free and timel=
y
exchange of ideas? After all, we already have such forums as this as a mean=
s of
asking scholarly questions on a specific topic. Why not extend this to arti=
cles
as a whole?<br>
Che ne dite? Perhaps this forum could be a place to discuss this idea. I'm
looking forward to hearing responses from colleagues on this proposal.<br>

Dear italian-studies friends,
Off line, our colleague John Scott has pointed out to me the
Electronic Bulletin of the Dante Society of America; the URL is:
http://www.princeton.edu/~dante/ebdsa/
Needless to say, this is a publication of the highest quality.
Best wishes to all, George
