Quaderni del ' 900. 8. 2008

The journal "Quaderni del '900" is the result of a collaborative project between Italy and the U.S. It is an annual bilingual publication (English and Italian) of contemporary Italian literature and culture. Open primarily to young scholars, the journal offers a space to explore a specific theme and / or author in each issue within an interdisciplinary and comparative framework aimed at establishing connections among different fields (sociology, literature, etc.) and topics (gender, colonialism, etc.). Made possibile thanks to the sponsorship of the George L. Graziadio Center for Italian Studies at California State University Long Beach, the journal is produced by a combined team of Italian and American scholars, affiliated to institutions located in both countries. Past issues have been devoted to Cesare Pavese, Pier Paolo Pasolini, John Fante, women writers during the Fascist era, and Italian post-colonial literature.
