Il dramma dell’emigrazione sulla pelle di una madre con il neonato al seno: una raffigurazione senza tempo, emblema della sofferenza di tutte quelle persone che sono costrette a lasciare la propria terra in cerca di un futuro migliore... Secondo volume della celebrata Trilogia Istriana, "La ragazza di Petrovia" è un romanzo che racconta la delicata fase di inserimento delle migliaia di profughi istriani nell’Italia appena uscita da un disastroso conflitto mondiale. Ammassati nei cosiddetti "campi di raccolta", questi italiani, sfuggiti a Tito e alle rappresaglie antifasciste, scopriranno di non essere affatto i benvenuti. Protagonista del romanzo è Giustina, giovanissima profuga che si ritrova a dover portare avanti la gravidanza nonostante un contesto sociale così drammatico. Un libro che racconta la tragedia eterna dell’emigrazione, dell’intolleranza e dell’odio, riportando a galla eventi storici che l’opinione pubblica italiana ha scelto di dimenticare troppo presto. Fulvio Tomizza (1935-1999) nasce nella contrada di Materada, nel comune istriano di Giurizzani. Cresciuto in mezzo alle tensioni interetniche fra italofoni e slavi, con l’irrompere della Seconda guerra mondiale è costretto a riparare a Trieste con la famiglia. Iscrittosi all’Accademia di Arte Drammatica e alla facoltà di Lettere di Belgrado, nel 1957 esordisce con i primi racconti, cui faranno seguito, di lì a poco, i romanzi della Trilogia Istriana: "Materada" (1960), "La ragazza di Petrovia" (1963) e "Il bosco di acacie" (1966). Ai suoi romanzi, che raccontano la difficile vita degli italiani di frontiera, Tomizza affianca un’originale produzione teatrale ("Vera Verk", "La storia di Bertoldo", "L’idealista") e una serie di testi per l’infanzia ("La pulce in gabbia", "Il gatto Martino"). Nel 1977, col romanzo "La miglior vita", si aggiudica il Premio Strega.

Poised between the Mediterranean and the Mitteleuropa, crossroads of civilizations and seat of vibrant cultural and literary life, Trieste is now acknowledged as enjoying unrivalled cultural status amongst Italian cities. This volume, the first comprehensive study of Triestine literature in English, originally reassesses TriesteÆs literary identity, paying particular attention to the period between 1918 and 1954 when local writing became intensely aware of its local specificity and some of its central motifs came prominently to the fore. TriesteÆs singular border identity, mirrored in a variegated literary output, emerges here as laden with complexities and ambiguities, such as the controversial notion of triestinita, the ambiguous relation with nationalism, specifically in its Fascist inflection, and the anxieties generated by repeated re-definitions of the areaÆs historical borders.

Di fronte ai meccanismi misteriosi della Storia, gli esseri umani sembrano soltanto esili granelli di polvere. Ma sentimenti come l’amore e l’amicizia, spesso, possono trascendere anche il destino più tragico... Fulvio Tomizza, autore di una struggente Trilogia Istriana che racconta l’esodo drammatico dei profughi istriani dopo la Seconda guerra mondiale, è stato un romanziere di rara sensibilità, cantore della semplicità e dei sentimenti più archetipici di un’umanità che, nonostante le circonvoluzioni della grande Storia (sì, quella con la "s" maiuscola!), sembra ritornare sempre a una genuinità apparentemente smarrita. I due protagonisti del romanzo "L’amicizia", pubblicato per la prima volta nel 1980, sono rispettivamente un contadino istriano e un giovane borghese triestino. Il loro legame, avversato dalle vicissitudini sociali della loro epoca, si risolve invece in un’insperata amicizia: una di quelle che lasciano sempre un barlume di speranza... Fulvio Tomizza (1935-1999) nasce nella contrada di Materada, nel comune istriano di Giurizzani.

Francesco Koslovic—even his name straddles two cultures. And during the spring of 1955, in the village of Materada on the Istrian Peninsula, his two worlds are coming apart. Materada, the first volume of Fulvio Tomizza's celebrated Istrian Trilogy, depicts the Istrian exodus of the hundreds of thousands who had once thrived in a rich ethnic mixture of Italians and Slavs. Complicating Koslovic's own departure is his attempt to keep the land that he and his brother have worked all their lives. A picture of a disappearing way of life, a tale of feud and displacement, and imbued with the tastes, tales, and songs of his native Istria, Koslovic's story is a testament to the intertwined ethnic roots of Balkan history.

Scholarship on Italian emigration has generally omitted the Julian-Dalmatians, a group of Italians from Istria and Dalmatia, two regions that, in the wake of World War Two, were ceded by Italy to Yugoslavia as part of its war reparations to that country. Though Italians by language culture, and traditions, it seems that this group has been conveniently excised from history. And yet, Julian-Dalmatians constitute an important element in twentieth-century Italian history and represent a unique aspect of both Italian culture and emigration. This ground-breaking collection of articles from an international team of scholars opens the discussion on these "forgotten Italians" by briefly reviewing the history of their diaspora and then by examining the literary and artistic works they produced as immigrants to Canada. Forgotten Italians offers new insights into such celebrated authors as Diego Bastianutti, Mario Duliani, Caterina Edwards, and Gianni Angelo Grohovaz, as well as visual artists such as Vittorio Fiorucci and Silvia Pecota. Profoundly marked by the experience of being uprooted and forced into exile, by life in refugee camps, and by the encounter with a new culture, first-generation Julian-Dalmatians in Canada used art and writing to come to terms with their anguished situation and to rediscover their cultural roots.

Central to the aim of both this book is to rethink the concept of diaspora as it is used both academically and popularly at the beginning of the twenty-first century. It seeks to interrogate the notion of “diaspora” in an interdisciplinary way, and to explore the contradictions inherent in contemporary notions of place and identity. It presents explorations of both “traditional” diasporas, such as the Irish community in the United States and in Great Britain, as well as recently established diasporas being formed through new patterns of migration and resettlement. Traditional conceptions of diaspora focused on forced exile from the homeland and the adoption of conscious strategies of integration upon arrival in the new land. In the past, it was assumed that migrants would rapidly assimilate into their receiving societies. Alternatively, migrant workers were regarded by themselves and their host societies as “sojourners”: they were not expected to integrate precisely because their alien presence was perceived to be temporary. Two poles then framed the traditional interpretation of migration and settlement. On the one hand, migrants assimilated rapidly; on the other, migrants were temporarily in the host-land. Yet, the realisation both that the melting pot is a myth and that migrant workers do not, in the main, go home, has forced an increasing acceptance of ethnic diversity. This, combined with ongoing improvements in travel and communications technologies, facilitates today’s migrants in maintaining links with their home countries. The increased visibility of transnational ethnic communities and a resurgence in labour migration in the twenty-first century, have stimulated academic interest in both contemporary diasporas and in recovering the hidden narratives of earlier global migrations. The renewed interest in the formation and narrative of diasporas is evident across a range of disciplines. Moreover, the meaningful exploration of any aspect of the humanities and social sciences requires an inter-disciplinary approach. Thus is the aim of this volume. Contributors approach the issue of diaspora from a variety of academic backgrounds: sociology, politics, history, literature and the visual arts. Concomitantly, data sources are diverse, with contributors drawing on official government publications, literary sources and personal memoirs, paintings and photographs, popular culture and personal interviews. This diversity of data sources indicates the multifarious approaches to the exploration diaspora. More importantly, it highlights the critical role played by unofficial, and often hidden, narratives in representing the experiences of those who find themselves, through a variety of political, social and economic factors, displaced. "This edited collection is a timely and precocious answer to a gap in the literature of identities and nationhood. It is a response to the new challenges and opportunities facing diasporic communities and, what is more, sets out key pointers for rethinking diaspora in the twenty-first century. At a time when western states are facing the need to re-evaluate traditional responses to ethnic difference arising from migration in the mid-twentieth century, this book posits an important perspective on the multiculturalism debate. Contrary to previous political and scholarly assumptions, this book shows that the children and grandchildren of immigrants can continue to have an ambiguous relationship to the state in which they were born in part because of the very nature of diaspora. The enduringly complex and sometimes volatile insider/outsider relationship is explored in these chapters through analysis of various narratives, in textual, spoken and visual forms. Analysis of such ‘hidden narratives’ reveals that the meaning and pertinence of membership of a diasporic community is defined as much by the context of the host country as by the discourses of the homeland. Across their various sources and case studies, the authors demonstrate the power of the juncture between dominant national discourses of the host state and the identity of its immigrants. Each author notes how different the diasporic community in question would be – not to mention the impact on its relationship to the host state and the homeland – if some of narratives hidden over time were to be reclaimed. As one author puts it, flux in elements of identity-formation in postmodern society represents a chance to ‘engage in dialogue with our own diversity’. In constructing a coherent volume from such a diverse range of cases and disciplines, the editors successfully demonstrate the wide validity of their case for ‘rethinking diasporas’. Nonetheless, the specific origins of this book – a conference held in a border town in Ireland – are, it may be argued, uniquely significant. For the current process of change in Irish national identity is inseparable from central features of diaspora-formation that the authors highlight, including economic pressures. Moreover, just as the town of Dundalk has historically felt the effects of its proximity to Northern Ireland, so the ‘imagined borders’ of diaspora explored in this book are shown to be all the more powerful for the fact that their delineation is contested." —Katy Hayward (Institute for British-Irish Studies, UCD
