Book excerpt: Piccolo mondo antico (1895) è generalmente considerato il capolavoro di Fogazzaro; a questo seguiranno altri tre romanzi che rappresentano il seguito della vicenda: Piccolo mondo moderno, Il santo, Leila. Il racconto è ambientato in Valsolda, una località posta sulle sponde del lago di Lugano, e si svolge temporalmente a ridosso di alcune vicende del Risorgimento italiano, dal 1849 (anno della bruciante sconfitta di Novara) al 1859, in prossimità della nuova guerra contro l'Austria. Da alcuni appunti dell'autore sappiamo che la stesura del romanzo gli portò via circa dieci anni. Appena uscito, il romanzo fu immediatamente tradotto in inglese ed in francese, divenendo in breve tempo un successo internazionale, capace perfino di surclassare Le vergini delle rocce di Gabriele D'Annunzio. Proprio grazie all'enorme fortuna dell'opera, Antonio Fogazzaro ottenne la nomina a senatore (Aonia edizioni).

Book excerpt: During the Italian Risorgimento (mid-nineteenth century), in Austrian-occupied Lombardy, Franco Maironi (Massimo Serato), a young man from an aristocratic family, decides to marry Luisa (Alida Valli), a humble clerk's daughter, against his grandmother, the Marquess Orsola Maironi's wishes. The old lady makes the life of the newly married couple miserable (she destroys the will which would grant Franco his wealth, and causes Luisa's uncle to lose his job, as he was helping them). In the meantime, Luisa gives birth to little Maria. Franco is forced to go to Turin in search of a job. During his absence, Luisa's daughter drowns in Lake of Lugano and she is almost driven mad. Franco returns home for a short time but Luisa reacts coldly towards him. During the Second Italian War of Independence Franco becomes a volunteer soldier in the fight against Austrian and again meets his wife by Lake Maggiore. Despite Luisa's coldness, Franco is sure she still loves him. Aware that he might die in the war, he makes love to her one last time, leaving her pregnant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since World War II, aesthetic impulses generated in Italy have swept through every film industry in the world, and in her book Mira Liehm analyses the roots in literature, philosophy, and contemporary Italian life which have contributed to this extraordinary vigor. An introductory chapter offers a unique overview of the Italian cinema before 1942. It is followed by a full and profound discussion of neorealism in its heyday, its difficult aftermath in the fifties, the glorious sixties, and finally by an analysis of the contemporary cinematic crisis. Mira Liehm has known personally many of the leading figures in Italian cinema, and her work is rich in insights into their lives and working methods. This impressive scholarly work immediately outclasses all other available Italian film histories. It will be essential reading for anyone seriously interested in the cinema.
