Italian Americans of Newark, Nutley, and Belleville shows these immigrants and their families from 1900 to the 1950s. The street peddler, the barber, the baker, the undertaker, the macaroni maker, the concert musician, and more are portrayed here in the grace and dignity of their work. Outings to the shore or Branch Brook Park balanced hard work and long hours. Family gatherings, weddings, first communions, and processions for the feasts of St. Gerard, St. Rocco, and St. Bartholomew were all a part of the life of the family and the vibrant Italian neighborhoods. More than 200 vintage photographs from family albums tell these stories.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This historical study of Italian immigrants' information ecologies addresses the current lack of research on immigrants and libraries. The objective of this research is to develop a textured understanding of the information ecology of Italian immigrants, the exemplary group chosen for this study. The study is situated in Newark which was the site of immigrant settlement and vibrant immigrant information circuits during the last decade of the nineteenth and the first two decades of the twentieth century; a time when the reforms of the Progressive Era, an influx of immigrants, and the effects of urbanization intersected with a growing public library movement. A new conceptualization labeled the Information Neighborhood was developed in this dissertation as a framework to capture the rich information networks within Italian enclaves at the turn of the twentieth century. This framework draws on the work of Robert Darnton's communication circuits and provides a structure for the descriptions of Italian information resources within their information ecologies and for the exploration of communication media and modes within immigrants' enclaves. This research and the concept of the Information Neighborhood was informed by Michel de Certeau's theories of appropriation and of strategies and tactics. Subaltern Studies was employed as a novel approach to the investigation of library history. Subaltern Studies Group's metatheoretical approach to history from the perspective of marginalized groups positions immigrants as subjects of their own histories. Subaltern Studies also provided a methodology for reading institutional and official sources against the grain to document Italian immigrant print culture and the library's practices. This subaltern reading revealed tensions in the discourse over Americanization and reading in foreign languages. It established immigrants as actively demanding foreign language material in the library. Both immigrant and librarian discourses revealed cross-cultural and cross-class tensions as well as power imbalances. The research also revealed that the acquisition of Italian language material was positioned within the discourse of the "fiction question" that championed high culture over popular culture. This study advances the understanding of the complex relationship between immigrants and public libraries, privileges Italian immigrant perspectives, and provides a deep examination of their holistic information worlds and practices

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1930, one out of every six Pittsburgh residents was an immigrant. More came from Italy than from any other country in the world. Drawn by chain migration and the prospect of work in coal mines, steel mills, railroads, and other local industries, Italian immigrants contributed greatly to the growth and development of western Pennsylvania and endowed the region with a rich and vibrant ethnic culture that has endured to the present day. In this unprecedented volume, nearly two hundred photographs collected from Italian American families still living in the Pittsburgh region illustrate aspects of the Italian immigrant experience in western Pennsylvania, including work, community, leisure, religion, and family life. Italians of Pittsburgh and Western Pennsylvania tells the uplifting story of the work ethic that these pioneering immigrants brought to Pittsburgh and how they laid a solid foundation on which later generations could build and persevere.
