Description
Literary Nonfiction. Italian American Studies. In this fine catalog, bibliphilia and the history of print culture intersect--finally and productively--with Italian American studies. Historians, artists, poets, and radical activists will certainly find here what they seek. But Periconi is also initiating a much bigger discussion about collectors, archives, and their silences. Let the questions fly, whether in Italian or English.--Donna R. Gabaccia, Professor of History, University of Minnesota
This unique and remarkable catalogue raisonnée may well represent the cornerstone of a long needed Italian American Archive, the entry-point to the social, political and literary micro-history of one of the largest migrations in modern times. Witnesses and protagonists of the struggle of living and negotiating two or three languages and cultures constitute the warp and woof of our layered identities, microcosms of the past that will shape our future. Bravo and grazie to Periconi!--Peter Carravetta, Alfonse M. D'Amato Professor of Italian and Italian American Studies, SUNY at Stony Brook
