Description

Product Description Following the more theoretical first installment of New Perspectives in Italian Cultural Studies devoted to Definitions, Theory, and Accented Practices, the second volume of New Perspectives deals with practicing cultural studies by offering articles that are valuable for both scholars of Italian studies and students interested in a cultural studies approach. Divided in four sections, the articles included offer complex approaches to literature, film, the visual arts, and a particular moment in Italian history with which Italians are still coming to terms, fascism. The essays cover about two hundred years of Italian cultures dealing with the construction of national myths, the role of soccer in contemporary debates, the contemporary success of mystery novels, and issues of race and crime in fascist Italy. Contributors look at film through the lens of fashion history and the particular Italian use of dubbing that continues even today. Place and memory are the topics of a number of essays that also allow for an interpretation of Italian culture inAmericans' imagination. This volume contains a multifaceted representation of Italy and invites additional discussion on the complexity of representing cultures Review "Enhanced with a usefully comprehensive index, New Perspectives in Italian cultural Studies: The Arts and History is a seminal work of collective scholarship and highly recommended for academic library Italian History & Contemporary Culture reference collections and supplemental reading lists."--Midwest Book Review About the Author Graziella Parati is the Paul D. Paganucci Professor of Italian Literature and Language and professor in the Comparative Literature and Women's and Gender Studies Programs at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire.
