Italy's Apulian Migrants in Australia: a Historical Resource / Gli Emigranti Pugliesi in Australia Risorsa Storica: Risorsa Storica

Autore: Cristian Talesco

Numero di pagine: 203

This volume, entitled “Italy’s Apulian Migrants in Australia: a Historical Resource” commemorates those people who moved from every part of Apulia (from the lower Salento, to the land of Bari, to the Gargano) to reach a new bright future in the big and faraway Australia. The volume explains why they were forced to leave their homeland, and why they chose to live in Australia; the story of their long journey from Europe to the southern hemisphere finds place in these pages. In doing this, the authors have tried to delineate in a vivid picture the specificity of Apulian migratory experience. Il presente volume “Gli Emigranti Pugliesi in Australia: Risorsa Storica” ricorda chi dei nostri corregionali dal Basso Salento, al Gargano, passando per la Terra di Bari, ha lasciato il paese di nascita alla volta di un futuro nella grande e lontana Australia. Il volume chiarisce il perchè questi pugliesi hanno lasciato la Puglia e cosa li ha spinti a scegliere l’Australia. Viene raccontata la storia del lungo viaggio in nave dall’Europa verso l’emisfero Australe. Tutto ciò cercando di catturare in un’immagine la peculiarità dell’esperienza migratoria pugliese.

This first section of the book presents in its entirety the largely unpublished correspondence between Years and the philosopher Mario Manlio Rossi. Subsequently, observing the influence and the fascination exerted by the work of Yeats on Italian poets such as Montale, Solmi and Giudici, who even translated some of Yeats' poems, and Lucio Piccolo, who also had a brief epistolary exchange with the Irish poet, this too still partially unpublished, we arrive at a critical examination of the Italian reception of Yeats' works. W.B. Yeats e la cultura italiana is rounded off by an annotated bibliography of the translations and works of criticism which represents an...
