The Making of Inspector Montalbano
Along with the Film Studies department, the Italian Department held a Fall Tea for all students on Thursday, November 1. Many students showed interest in the department with their thoughtful questions and comments about upcoming courses and activities.
As well, Alberto Sironi, director of the popular series Detective Montalbano, gave a lecture and follow-up discussion on November 6 that was open to the public called “The Making of Inspector Montalbano.”
Our Italian club will have an annual Christmas dinner during the holiday season and is open to suggestions for upcoming events!
Settimana della lingua italiana
Every year, in October, the Italian Language Week (Settimana della lingua italiana) takes place. As in the past two years, also this time Bryn Mawr and Haverford students participated to the event with a multimedia presentation.
This year’s themes were “Italy of the territories” and “Italy of the future”.
Students of ITAL201 (Italian Culture and Society), taught by Dr. Giuliana Perco, collaborated to prepare a very interesting and multi-faceted group presentation on music and dialects. More specifically, Camila, Ruby, Adriana, Sarah, Grace, Amanda, Jadil and Vanessa focused their work on contemporary songs dedicated to emigration and immigration and written in several different Italian dialects. The course is taught by Prof. Giuliana Perco.
The event was organized by the Consulate General of Italy at Philadelphia and hosted at UPenn; it included also presentations from students from Temple University and the University of Pennsylvania.
Brave ragazze!
