Runner Up Winner of the Edinburgh Gadda Prize - Established
Scholars, Cultural Studies Category Winner of the American
Association for Italian Studies Book Prize (20th & 21st
Centuries) Honorable Mention for the Howard R. Marraro Prize By
linking Italy’s long history of emigration to all continents in
the world, contemporary transnational migrations directed toward
it, as well as the country’s colonial legacies, Fiore’s book
poses Italy as a unique laboratory to rethink national belonging at
large in our era of massive demographic mobility. Through an
interdisciplinary cultural approach, the book finds traces of
globalization in a past that may hold interesting lessons about
inclusiveness for the present. Fiore rethinks Italy’s formation
and development on a transnational map through cultural analysis of
travel, living, and work spaces as depicted in literary, filmic,
and musical texts. By demonstrating how immigration in Italy today
is preoccupied by its past emigration and colonialism, the book
stresses commonalities and dispels preoccupations.
