Reframing Italy: New Trends In Italian Women's Filmmaking, Bernadette Luciano Nov 2013

Reframing Italy: New Trends In Italian Women's Filmmaking, Bernadette Luciano

Purdue Studies in Romance Literatures

In recent years, Italian cinema has experienced a quiet revolution: the proliferation of films by women. But their thought-provoking work has not yet received the attention it deserves. Reframing Italy fills this gap. The book introduces readers to films and documentaries by recognized women directors such as Cristina Comencini, Wilma Labate, Alina Marazzi, Antonietta De Lillo, Marina Spada, and Francesca Comencini, as well as to filmmakers whose work has so far been undeservedly ignored. Through a thematically based analysis supported by case studies, Luciano and Scarparo argue that Italian women filmmakers, while not overtly feminist, are producing work that increasingly …


Pasolini's Laugh: Joyful Ignorance In The Decameron, Andrea Privitera Mar 2013

Pasolini's Laugh: Joyful Ignorance In The Decameron, Andrea Privitera

Modern Languages and Literatures Annual Graduate Conference

In this paper, I discuss Giovanni Boccaccio's The Decameron and its 1971 film adaptation by Pier Paolo Pasolini. To be more precise, I focus on the fifth novella of the sixth day, the one about Giotto and Forese, and its audiovisual re-elaboration, which can be seen as a very brief and at the same time very vivid example of Pasolini’s ideas on society, language and communication.

"Life Is Beautiful, Or Is It?" Asked Jakob The Liar, Ilona Klein Jan 2010

"Life Is Beautiful, Or Is It?" Asked Jakob The Liar, Ilona Klein

Faculty Publications

In 1999 the 71st Academy Awards ceremony awarded to the film The Last Days the prize for Best Documentary Feature. Underwritten by Steven Spielberg's Survivors of the Shoah Visual History Foundation, this documentary depicts in a compelling, historically objective fashion what the Nazi regime called the "Endlösung" ["Final Solution"]: the effort to annihilate all of European Jewry. In the film, five Hungarian survivors are interviews with honesty and compassion. Their answers record history as it unwound. Clearly, the intent of the interviews is to assure that historical facts are not falsified, nor taken for granted. Documentaries of this kind can …

The Life And Work Of Eleanora Duse, Eleanor Kleczka Jun 1937

The Life And Work Of Eleanora Duse, Eleanor Kleczka

Bachelors’ Theses

The purpose of this thesis is to present the biography of one of the greatest of the twentieth century actresses, Eleonora Duse, and the art for which she became famous.

By the revealing power of an unobtrusive art, Duse made herself the greatest actress of her day. When the French said she had widened the horizon of her art, they paid tribute to what was something almost reaching the stage of genius, if it was not that.

As an artist she belongs to the world, and the world has placed her among its greatest. But those who knew her only …
