Book excerpt: Partirono carichi di sogni e di speranza per un viaggio che li avrebbe condotti in una terra lontana, dalla quale la maggior parte di loro non avrebbe più fatto ritorno. Gli italiani, popolo di emigrati, nel corso dei secoli hanno piantato le radici nelle Americhe. Questo libro ricostruisce fatti storici, politici ed economici e racconta le imprese di tanti italiani nel Nuovo Mondo: gli esploratori, gli esuli dei moti rivoluzionari, i migranti economici che coniarono il motto “il primo anno agricoltore, il secondo inquilino, il terzo proprietario”, anche se non sempre questa previsione si è avverata. Il libro si chiude con le risposte alle domande più frequenti poste dai discendenti di quegli italiani che oggi chiedono il riconoscimento della cittadinanza. “L’emigrazione accompagna la storia degli esseri umani e ne costituisce un tratto decisivo e imprescindibile, con il suo bagaglio di difficoltà, dolori, sofferenze ma anche di incredibili risorse, di contributi decisivi per lo sviluppo economico e culturale dei Paesi di approdo”. (Lorenzo Trucco) “La reazione più adeguata di fronte alla crescente incertezza consiste nell’aprirsi quanto più possibile all’altro, senza avere paura del confronto culturale”. (Giorgio Barberis) “Libri come L’esodo sono preziosi per far conoscere a tutti noi l’immenso patrimonio di cultura e di affetto su cui l’Italia può contare in ogni angolo di mondo”. (Francesco Bocchetti)

Book Quando i clandestini eravamo noi

Download or read book Quando i clandestini eravamo noi written by Umberto Ursetta and published by Luigi Pellegrini Editore. This book was released on 2023-09-08 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le tragedie e le vicissitudini della nostra emigrazione che in questo libro Umberto Ursetta riporta alla nostra memoria, sono un monito contro la smemoratezza del nostro tempo. La mancanza di memoria è all’origine dei tanti episodi di razzismo, di odio e di xenofobia nei confronti di chi sbarca sulle nostre coste. È innegabile che stiamo vivendo un momento caratterizzato da una pericolosa regressione culturale che rischia di far precipitare la società in comportamenti sempre più disumanizzanti. Bisogna fare argine a questa deriva regressiva, e un modo per farlo è raccontare la nostra emigrazione che ha avuto una grande importanza nella storia italiana contemporanea.

Book Migration and Domestic Work

Download or read book Migration and Domestic Work written by Gaye Yilmaz and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-18 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With female migrants dominating low paid and ever-expanding domestic work worldwide, this book brings together the voices of 120 migrating women of 28 national identities and 10 different religious affiliations. Together they tell how patriarchal and religious gender codes in the family and at work shape their new lives in London, Berlin and Istanbul. Through their own accounts, the study explores the intersecting multiple and gendered identities women carry from their home countries and how these are reshaped, challenged, changed, or not, as they encounter different structures, traditions and cultural codes in their new countries. With women’s propensity for collective organising, whether via community, social movements or trade unions as a central theme, the authors also bring together issues of migration, work and identity with trade union and community organizing. Migration and Domestic Work is an important source for scholars and practitioners in each of these fields.

Book Italian Psychology and Jewish Emigration under Fascism

Download or read book Italian Psychology and Jewish Emigration under Fascism written by Patrizia Guarnieri and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-05-03 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fascism and the racial laws of 1938 dramatically changed the scientific research and the academic community. Guarnieri focuses on psychology, from its promising origins to the end of the WWII. Psychology was marginalized in Italy both by the neo-idealistic reaction against science, and fascism (unlike Nazism) with long- lasting consequences. Academics and young scholars were persecuted because they were antifascist or Jews and the story of Italian displaced scholars is still an embarrassing one. The book follows scholars who emigrated to the United States, such as psychologist Renata Calabresi, and to Palestine, such as Enzo Bonaventura. Guarnieri traces their journey and the help they received from antifascist and Zionist networks and by international organizations. Some succeeded, some did not, and very few went back.

Book Sibling Relations and Gender in the Early Modern World

Download or read book Sibling Relations and Gender in the Early Modern World written by Naomi J. Miller and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-05-15 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the relationships between parents and children have long been a staple of critical inquiry, bonds between siblings have received far less attention among early modern scholars. Indeed, until now, no single volume has focused specifically on relations between brothers and sisters during the early modern period, nor do many essays or monographs address the topic. The essays in Sibling Relations and Gender in the Early Modern World focus attention on this neglected area, exploring the sibling dynamics that shaped family relations from the fifteenth through the seventeenth centuries in Italy, England, France, Spain, and Germany. Using an array of feminist and cultural studies approaches, prominent scholars consider sibling ties from a range of interdisciplinary perspectives, including art history, musicology, literary studies, and social history. By articulating some of the underlying paradigms according to which sibling relations were constructed, the collection seeks to stimulate further scholarly research and critical inquiry into this fruitful area of early modern cultural studies.

  • Pages : 294 pages

Download or read book Worlds Between written by Leonore Davidoff and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1995 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Worlds Between" presents a series of pioneering essays by Leonore Davidoff which together constitute nothing less than an urgent reappraisal of our understanding of the relationship between gender and history. Among the topics discusses are the positions of servants and wives in Victorian and Edwardian England; the relationship between home and community in English society; the changing structure of housework; the role of family relationships; and the reflections on the role of the concepts of the "public" and the "private" developed through the work of feminist historians. For over two decades, Davidoff has been at the forefront of the reexamination of femininity and masculinity in history. This volume, which brings together her most important writings over this period, as well as several unpublished essays, will provide a necessary and important addition to the existing literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examining the experiences of leadership among trade unionists in a range of unions and labor movements around the world, this volume addresses perspectives of women and men from a range of identities such as race/ethnicity, sexuality, and age.

Book Never Married

  • Author : Amy M. Froide
  • Publisher : Oxford University Press, USA
  • Release : 2005-02-24
  • ISBN : 0199270600
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book Never Married written by Amy M. Froide and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2005-02-24 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never Married: Singlewomen in Early Modern England investigates a paradox in the history of early modern England: although one third of adult women were never married, these women have remained largely absent from historical scholarship. Amy Froide reintroduces us to the category of difference called marital status and to the significant ways it shaped the life experiences of early modern women. By de-centring marriage as the norm in social, economic, and cultural terms,her book critically refines our current understanding of people's lives in the past and adds to a recent line of scholarship that questions just how common 'traditional' families really were.This book is both a social-economic study of singlewomen and a cultural study of the meanings of singleness in early modern England. It focuses on never-married women in England's provincial towns, and on singlewomen from a broad social spectrum. Covering the entire early modern era, it reveals that this was a time of transition in the history of never-married women. During the sixteenth century life-long singlewomen were largely absent from popular culture, but by the eighteenth century theyhad become a central concern of English society.As the first book of original research to focus on singlewomen on the period, it also illuminates other areas of early modern history. Froide reveals the importance of kinship in the past to women without husbands and children, as well as to widows, widowers, single men, and orphans. Examining the contributions of working and propertied singlewomen, she is able to illustrate the importance of gender and marital status to urban economies and to notions of urban citizenship in the early modernera. Tracing the origins of the spinster and old maid stereotypes she reveals how singlewomen were marginalized as first the victims and then the villains of Protestant English society.
