SUMMARY:THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELED...Dealing with ingratitude in Early Modern Italian Culture (Leonardo\, Machiavelli\, Ariosto)
DESCRIPTION:Today no one seems to consider ingratitude as a serious moral issue. If a lack of moral reciprocity remains arguably a generally frustrating experience\, accusing someone of being “ungrateful” tends to sound naïve\, outdated\, slightly melodramatic. We can therefore be surprised to find that the topic of ingratitude is widely spread in fictional and non fictional texts of the 15th and 16th centuries\, and that it draws the attention of some major authors of early modern Italian culture\, including Leonardo\, Machiavelli\, Ariosto. Focusing on Orlando Furioso as well as on Leonardo’s writings and on Machiavelli’s literary works\, I’ll try to show that the reflections on this topic\, although inspired by ancient models\, suggest the emerging of a new vision of earthly justice and of a deeper need for personal recognition. I also wish to argue that\, by shaping a new kind of authorial identity (instable\, resentful\, humorous)\, some of these texts seem to question the traditional relationship between literature and morality. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Orlando Furioso as Paradoxical Source of Early Italian Epic Theory
DESCRIPTION:Although Ariosto’s Orlando Furioso was acknowledged to be a superior romance to the ones that preceded it\, the poem was included in the disparagement of the genre and was regularly invoked as an example of what the epic poet ought not to do. These attacks against Ariosto’s bestseller might be said to define epic by negation\, dwelling as they do on the failure of the Furioso to observe some of the epic requisites set down by Aristotle. In this lecture hosted by the Program in Italian Studies\, Daniel Javitch will argue that\, while the influence of the Poetics is very discernible in the discourse about epic produced in Italy from the midcentury on\, Ariosto’s actual and deviant practice is equally influential\, and serves to generate rules which counter that practice. \nSupported by the Eberhard L. Faber 1915 Memorial Fund in the Humanities Council \n

SUMMARY:The Written Language of the Body: Pier Paolo Pasolini\, Performance Art\, and the Neocapitalist 1970s
DESCRIPTION:A gay\, Catholic\, communist master of Italian poetry and cinema\, Pier Paolo Pasolini had a complex and controversial relationship with visual art. Anti-avant-garde and anti-capitalist\, he was suspended between iconophilia and iconoclasm as a film-maker\, art-critic\, and political activist. Eventually\, he became an icon himself\, and contemporary artists have worked on his figure from many points of view. Ara Merjian\, professor of Italian and Art History at NYU\, is going to explore Pasolini’s engagement with performance art in the 70s and beyond\, offering us a glimpse on his forthcoming book “Heretical Aesthetics: Pier Paolo Pasolini against the Avant-Garde”.

SUMMARY:Christ\, Chemistry\, Curdled Cheese\, and the Caravaggians
DESCRIPTION:Alessandro Giammei\, Society of Fellows-Department of French and Italian\, will give a presentation on “Christ\, Chemistry\, Curdled Cheese\, and the Caravaggians: The interplay of art\, gastronomy\, politics\, and religion in Pasolini’s La Ricotta” \nAlessandro Giammei received his Perfezionamento (PhD) in Italian Literature from Scuola Normale Superiore di Pisa\, completed his Laurea and Laurea Magistrale studies at the University of Rome La Sapienza\, and taught at NYU as a Visiting Scholar Researcher. His published articles address topics such as the interactions between verbal and iconic codes in both classicist and experimental texts\, avantgarde and neo-avantgarde writing\, the appropriation of early-modern cultural objects in 20th century literature and art\, and the work of Italian poets that have been marginalized because of their peripherality\, their gender\, their infirmity\, their ideology. \nAlessandro’s first book\, Nell’officina del nonsense di Toti Scialoja: Topi\, toponimi\, tropi\, cronotopi\, was fully sponsored by a grant from Fondazione Toti Scialoja\, and won the Harvard edition of the Edinburgh Gadda Prize in 2015. As a fellow at Princeton\, Alessandro will complete his current book project A Poet in Marble\, which is based on his doctoral thesis. The work shows how the multimedia legacy of Orlando Furioso — the most influential book of the Italian Renaissance and a model of ‘interdisciplinarity’ avant-la-lettre — intersects with the major aesthetic and literary experiences that define twentieth-century Italy as it moved through colonialism\, totalitarianism\, two world wars\, and through highly visible vanguard artistic movements. While at Princeton\, Alessandro will be affiliated with the Department of French and Italian\, teaching courses on both Renaissance and modern Italian literature and art\, and he will also take part in the Prison Teaching Initiative.
