Download or read book A Canniatura written by Achille Serrao and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1995 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Achille Serrao, who writes in the dialect of Caivano, a small town in Campania, in this book deals with his own «anxiety of influence» vis-à-vis the great melodic tradition of Neapolitan poetry, exemplarily represented by Salvatore Di Giacomo, by reclaiming instead another, antimelodic, anti-subjective legacy, from Basile to Capurro to Russo. The result is a poetry of striking originality and power, in which the painful incomprehensibility of life is affirmed with a language that can be sharp and refractory, yet subtle and elegant, confirming Serrao's position as one of Italy's foremost neo-dialect poets.

Download or read book The Other Italy written by Hermann W. Haller and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 1999-01-01 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Italy possesses two literary canons, one in the Tuscan language and the other made up of the various dialects of its many regions. The Other Italy presents for the first time an overview of the principal authors and texts of Italy's literary canon in dialect. It highlights the cultivated dialect poetry, drama, and narrative prose since the codification of the Tuscan literary language in the early sixteenth century, when writing in dialect became a deliberate and conscious alternative to the official literary standard. The book offers a panorama of the literary dialects of Italy over five centuries and across the country's regions, shedding light on a profoundly plurilingual and polycentric civilization. As a guide to reading and research, it provides a compendium of literary sources in dialect, arranged by region and accompanied by syntheses of regional traditions with selected textual illustrations. A work of extraordinary importance, The Other Italy was awarded the Modern Language Association of America's Aldo and Jean Scaglione Publication Award for a Manuscript in Italian Literary Studies. It will serve scholars as an indispensable resource book for years to come.

Book excerpt: Giose Rimanelli and Achille Serrao met for the first time in this scant collection of sonnets written under the aegis of the gaze, of certain thematic and stylistic preferences that include the use of dialect, of a marked experimentation and transgressiveness always undermining the classical model of the sonnet. The "dreamed America" is finally reached with melancholy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Carmina blabla (1967), Poems Make Pictures (1971), Arcano (1990) and Moliseide (1992), and now with Alien Cantica it has become very clear that Rimanelli's poetic universe - with its attendant linguistic/experimental roots of meter and rhythm - has gained definitive form and awareness in America: in order to celebrate both this great acquired mother, America, and poetry itself, with its wealth of images and ramifications. The figure of Sonny Boy (Bambolino) in Alien Cantica, who appears as the Author's alter ego, sings with stark restlessness and exultation of freedom and nature in his extraordinary voyage of rediscovery.
