Dr. Fiore Presents on the Allied Landing in Sicily in Literature and Film at Frank Capra Film Fest (Bisacquino)
On May 29, 2026, Dr. Teresa Fiore (Inserra Chair in Italian and Italian American Studies, Global Cultural Studies) presented a paper on John Hersey’s novel A Bell for Adano (1944 Pulitzer Prize) and its adaptation to the big screen directed by Henry King in 1945, and also on Leonardo Sciascia’s short story “10 luglio ’43/Gary Cooper in Licata”, which features a clever cinematographic rendition of the arrival of the American forces on the Southern coast of Sicily that day. Part of a panel titled “Gli italo-americani e lo sbarco in Sicilia del 1943 nella letteratura e nel cinema,” the presentation was included in the Frank Capra Borgo Film Fest’s program.

Leggere la cittadinanza italiana attraverso l’arte contemporanea (Museo Riso, Palermo, 27 maggio 2026)
La proiezione del video di Marina Sagona Diritto di Sangue – Rovescio di Sangue (2025) sarà l’occasione per uno scambio sull’impostazione della legge sulla cittadinanza italiana e sulle contraddizioni che genera nel trattamento degli immigrati in Italia, rispetto ai discendenti italiani nel mondo. Fondata sullo ius sanguinis, la legge crea un doppio binario, come registrato dalle interviste contenute nel video, in termini di diritti garantiti e diritti difficilmente concessi o negati, con conseguenze sulla società italiana e sulle relazioni internazionali. Nell’invitare, appunto, a leggere la legge nella sua complessità attraverso l’arte contemporanea, l’incontro si propone di offrire riflessioni su identità, appartenenza e convivenza nel presente, grazie all’analisi della storia migratoria e coloniale italiana.
