The event is hosted by the University’s Center for Italian Studies, which looks to promote the Italian language and culture both within and outside of the University.

    Piero Bassetti's "Lezioni italiche". Send Us Your Questions!

    Anthony Julian Tamburri(April 06, 2010)
    As we look at Italy's contemporary immigration policies and the resultant challenges, we sometimes muse that, had Italy studied more profoundly its own historical emigration, perhaps it might better comprehend (read, be more sensitive to) its current situation. Now, as we ponder Bassetti's notion of Italicity, we might actually engage in an even exchange or sorts, and learn something from Italy in similar regard. Save the Date! Book Presentation of "Italic Lessons". April 20, 6 PM, Calandra Institute. Panelists include: Francesco Maria Talò, Niccolò D'Aquino, Anthony J. Tamburri, Peter Carravetta, Mario Mignone, Gianpaolo Pioli, Stefano Vaccara, Letizia Airos. Send your questions&comments to [email protected]. We'll submit them to Piero Bassetti during the conference!
