The first of its kind in English, Mafia and Outlaw Stories from Italian Life and Literature is a selection of readings from Italian fiction and non-fiction writers on the subject of the Mafia. Among the renowned writers featured are Giovanni Verga, Grazia Deledda, Anna Maria Ortese, Livia De Stefani, and Silvana La Spina, as well as famous witnesses such as Felicia Impastato, Letizia Battaglia, and Rita Atria who provide personal, often terrifying testimonies about their experiences with the Mafia. It is a historically diverse examination of criminal and outlaw institutions by some of the most significant figures in Italian literature. These newly translated writings show the ways in which Italians perceived and wrote about the Mafia and crime from the 1880s to the 1990s. Among them are stories dealing with the important legends used by the Mafia as sources for their image and ideology, legends such as the brigand and the Blessed Paulists. Some of the fascinating themes discussed are connections between the Mafia, the State, and the Catholic Church; the Mafia and children; women and the Mafia; the Black Hand; and relations between the Mafia and the Allied Forces during the Second World War. Robin Pickering-Iazzi incorporates an invaluable introduction that charts key periods in the history of Italy and the Mafia, and profiles each of the authors in the collection, noting their major works in Italian as well as those available in English. These and other features make this text especially appropriate for courses in Italian studies. Mafia and Outlaw Stories from Italian Life and Literature takes a unique and intriguing approach to the subject of the Mafia, and offers informed judgements about its historical impact on Italian society and culture.

With its physical beauty and kaleidoscopic cultural background, Sicily has long been a source of inspiration for filmmakers. Twelve new essays by international scholars--and additional writings from directors Roberta Torre, Giovanna Taviani, and Costanza Quatriglio--seek to offset the near-absence of scholarship focusing on the relationship between the Mediterranean island and cinema. Touching on class relations, immigration, gender and poverty, the essays examine how Sicily is depicted in fiction, satire and documentaries. Situated between North and South, East and West, innovation and tradition, authenticity and displacement, Sicily acts as a microcosm of the world, a place to explore numerous narratives and develop intercultural dialogue. It is also the center of cinematographic discussions and events such as the Taormina Film Festival and the SalinaDocFest. The volume presents Sicily almost as a character and creator in its own right.

Un carattere comune alle donne della più grande isola del Mediterraneo è la determinazione e capacità di reinventare il proprio destino. A testimoniarlo sono le tante storie raccontate in questo libro. Savatteri rompe l'immaginario stantio della donna siciliana scoprendo le vite di Elvira Sellerio e Franca Viola, sino alle grandi combattenti socialiste di Piana degli Albanesi. Le donne esemplari e ribelli di Savatteri diventano una bussola per infrangere l'archetipo della narrazione e ripensare l'isola intera. Francesco Musolino, "Gazzetta del Sud" «Quando arrivai a Palermo per iscrivermi all'università, mi accorsi a pelle che Palermo era 'fimmina'. Non solo per la bellezza delle sue ragazze dagli sguardi pirateschi, ma anche per la presenza ad ogni angolo del centro storico di numerose edicole votive dedicate a santa Rosalia, la Santuzza. Palermo era 'fimmina' nella sua carnale decadenza. Odorava di fiori tropicali e di monnezza. Odorava di umidità nelle scale di palazzi aristocratici ormai in sfacelo, e odorava di mistero dietro i portoni che introducevano a chiostri carichi di gelsomini e di rose».
