Teaching Italian American Literature,


Film, and Popular Culture
Edvige Giunta and Kathleen Zamboni McCormick, eds.

“Everyone interested in the complex experiences of


Italian Americans will be fascinated by this beautifully
organized, lucidly argued, and wide-ranging collection
of essays, which explores and analyzes the old
stereotypes in order to create an in-depth, global vision
of the newly booming field of Italian American studies.”
—Sandra M. Gilbert, University of California, Davis

Italian American studies has long been in conversation with American culture at large and is increasingly
present in American universities and colleges. Yet once-celebrated works, such as Pietro di Donato’s Christ
in Concrete, have slipped from the public consciousness, and many scholars fear that representations of
Italian Americans in popular culture, as in The Godfather films and the television series The Sopranos, have
obscured genuine historical inquiry and understanding. This volume aims to foster a deeper and more
complex appreciation for the importance of Italian American texts in the study of American culture.

The editors open the volume by outlining the history of Italians in the United States and exploring the
potential of literature and the arts to enable the recovery of a forgotten, even repressed, historical past.
Over thirty scholars and teachers then present innovative ways of teaching Italian American texts and
integrating them with other texts in courses ranging from American literature and history to multiethnic
and women’s studies. Contributors discuss Italian American fiction, poetry, memoir, oral history, and
theater and performance. A section on film and television provides an overview of popular as well as lesser-
known works and interrogates the stereotyped portrayals of Italian Americans. Other contributors offer
historical and interdisciplinary approaches to Italian American texts that revolve around themes of race and
gender politics, work and social class, and historical intersections. The volume concludes with a review of
anthologies that can be used in teaching Italian American studies.

An English Translation

Gabriel
The Original French Text
Kathleen Robin Hart, ed.

“Sand’s [play], with its probing of masculinity and


femininity, its reflection on male and female
education, love and friendship, women and the
law . . . [is] an excellent addition to the MLA’s
Texts and Translations series.”
—Annabelle Rea, Occidental College

“An admirable ruse, indeed! To inspire in me the horror of females, only to throw it in my face and say: but
this is what you are.”

The handsome, heroic heir to a vast estate, raised as a man to follow a man’s pursuits and to despise women,
is devastated to learn at the age of seventeen that he is in fact a she. Gabriel courageously refuses to give up
her male privileges, and her tragic struggle to work and fight and love in all the ways she knows how offers
a window into the obstacles faced by George Sand, the prolific intellectual woman whom the popular press
portrayed as a promiscuous, cigar-smoking oddity in trousers. “Strange that the most virile talent of our
time should be a woman’s!” exclaimed a reviewer in 1838.

Kathleen Robin Hart’s introduction contextualizes the drama, discussing its relation to the theater of Sand’s
day, the sentimental tradition, the subversive workings of carnival and masquerade, and the vein of literary
androgyny in Romantic works.

Caterina Albert

“Silent Souls” and Other Stories


Kathleen McNerney, trans.

“Ànimes mudes”
y altres narracions
Kathleen McNerney, ed.

“Caterina Albert is an excellent choice for


this MLA series. She is a superb writer in
a period—roughly modernist—that has
drawn increasing critical attention.”
—Geraldine C. Nichols, University of Florida

Caterina Albert i Paradís (1869-1966) began her career with a scandal. Her dramatic monologue “The
Infanticide,” narrated by a young woman, won prizes and garnered the attention of the Catalan literary
world, but its harsh theme drew outrage when the drama’s anonymous author was revealed to be a woman.
In the tradition of George Eliot, George Sand, and other controversial women authors, Albert assumed a
man’s name, Víctor Català. She continued to write unflinching narratives, mostly in Catalan, of the people
and life around her, producing a body of work still enlisted today to help the Catalan language resist the
dominance and encroachment of peninsular Spanish.

Albert shares with her contemporaries Anton Chekhov and Emilia Pardo Bazán an intense interest in the
psychological development of characters and in narrative strategies, and the short stories collected here
highlight her range of style and grasp of human nature. Kathleen McNerney provides an introduction to
recent Catalan political and literary history, in which she contextualizes Albert’s themes, feminism, and
formal techniques.

Teaching Narrative Theory


David Herman, Brian McHale, and James Phelan, eds.

“Simply one of the most coherent and engaging


academic books I’ve read in a good while.”
—Garrett Stewart, University of Iowa

The last two decades have seen a burst of renewed interest in narrative theory across many academic
disciplines as scholars analyze the power of storytelling in print and other media. Teaching Narrative Theory
provides a comprehensive resource for instructors who aim to help students identify and understand the
distinctive features of narrativity in a text or discourse and make use of the terms and concepts of the field.

This volume in the Options for Teaching series is organized to assist teachers at different levels of instruction
and in different disciplinary settings. In twenty-one essays, the contributors discuss narrative theory’s
various teaching contexts (e.g., classes on literature, creative writing, and folklore and ethnography); key
concepts and terms (e.g., story and plot, time and space, voice, perspective); applications beyond printed
texts (e.g., film and digital media); and impact on other areas of theory (e.g., gender and ethnic studies). A
glossary provides a guide to the challenging technical terminology characteristic of the field, and the volume
as a whole emphasizes the importance of understanding and implementing technical terms in learning
narrative theory.

Teaching British Women Playwrights of


the Restoration and Eighteenth Century
Bonnie Nelson and Catherine Burroughs, eds.

“This book will be an extremely useful guide to


instructors trying to bring these plays and this period
into their teaching, and even their research.”
—John O’Brien, University of Virginia

The considerable contributions of British women playwrights of the Restoration and eighteenth century,
long unavailable, have now inspired numerous anthologies, editions, and modern-day productions. As these
works continue to gain recognition and secure a more prominent place in college curriculums, teachers
face the challenge of introducing these rediscovered works to students and explaining how they fit into the
period’s dramatic tradition. This volume aims to help instructors present a clearer sense of this body of work
in the undergraduate and graduate classroom.

The volume opens with background essays on the history of women in theater, including the first appearance
of actresses on the stage, the earliest professional women playwrights, and their relationships with critics,
audiences, and the theater manager David Garrick. Contributors then focus on individual playwrights, from
Aphra Behn and Mary Pix to Hannah Cowley and Elizabeth Inchbald, and explore these women’s political,
protofeminist, critical, and moralist agendas. Discussions of Frances Burney and Eliza Haywood, authors of
both novels and plays, raise the question of genre. Comparative approaches offer ways of pairing plays in the
classroom, following themes such as masquerade and cross-dressing through the works of female dramatists and
those of their male counterparts. Other essays present methods for using these writers and their works in British
literature and history courses, surveys of drama and theater history, and introductions to women’s literature.

Contemporary Galician Cultural Studies:


Between the Local and the Global
Kirsty Hooper and Manuel Puga Moruxa, eds.

“Essential for the instructor offering classes or seminars


in the topic. It is scholarly, thorough, and thought
provoking. A groundbreaking book.”
—Cristina Moreiras-Menor, University of Michigan

Galicia occupies an ambiguous position, at the crossroads between land and sea, the Atlantic north and the
Mediterranean south, Spanish and Portuguese. For two centuries, its nationhood was ignored or disputed and
its people migrated in great numbers to the Americas. What it means to be Galician, therefore, is a central
question—particularly now, given Galicia’s new autonomy and today’s trends of globalization and pluralism.

In this first English-language collection of analyses of Galician culture and identity, many aspects of
galeguidade—Galicianness—are explored. Among them are the nineteenth-century Rexurdimento and
Rosalía de Castro’s championing of and conflict with Galician nationalism; the status of Galician as a
separate language; the attractions and problems of television series that express a utopian nostalgia; the
continuing importance of Galician-language poetry and folk music; and challenges to Galician tradition
by the postmodern avant-gardes after 1975.

Approaches to Teaching
the Works of Tim O’Brien
Alex Vernon and Catherine Calloway, eds.

“This new Approaches collection is both for aficionados


of Tim O’Brien (and Vietnam literature) and for those
with somewhat broader literary interests. I have nothing
but glowing praise for its substantial achievement.”
—David Jarraway, University of Ottawa

“The works of Tim O’Brien are among the most significant recent contributions to a lengthy canon of war
literature,” write the editors of this volume; they serve “as an ideal point of entry for discussions of war and
its human impact.” The author of the highly acclaimed The Things They Carried, O’Brien is a Pulitzer Prize
finalist and the winner of a National Book Award for Going After Cacciato.

This volume in the Approaches to Teaching series considers the range and depth of O’Brien’s writing, with
an emphasis on works that focus on the Vietnam War. Part 1, “Materials,” provides information on O’Brien’s
life and an overview of his literary output. It also directs readers to critical and reference works on subjects
encountered in his writing. The twenty-three essays in part 2, “Approaches,” provide historical background
on the Vietnam War; explore narrative issues in O’Brien’s works, such as the melding of fiction, nonfiction,
and memoir; and suggest ideas for teaching the author’s works in a variety of classroom and conceptual
settings (e.g., composition, American literature, war fiction, narrative theory, postmodernism).

Teaching French Women Writers of the


Renaissance and Reformation
Colette H. Winn, ed.

“An excellent volume of essays on an increasingly


important topic of research and instruction.”
—Edwin M. Duval, Yale University

Teaching French Women Writers of the Renaissance and Reformation considers the issues critical to teaching
recently rediscovered writers, such as Hélisenne de Crenne, Pernette du Guillet, and Louise Labé, who have
enriched the literary canon by offering alternative perspectives on the social, political, and religious issues
of early modern France. Addressing topics from law and medicine to motherhood and aesthetics, these
women wrote in nearly every genre, and their works include several literary firsts: the first book of Christian
emblems ever published by a woman (Georgette du Montenay), the first published collection of private
letters between women in French (the Dames de Roches), and the first full-length memoir by a woman in
French (Margaret of Valois).

The volume considers techniques for reading women’s writing alongside the texts of their male contemporaries
and offers guidance on incorporating a range of resources into the classroom. Essays in part 1 explore the
background and contexts so crucial for helping students understand how these writers negotiated their
entry into the public world of writing. In part 2, contributors discuss specific genres. Part 3 describes critical
methodologies that are useful in the classroom and demonstrates the benefits of teaching certain pairings of
texts and authors. The fourth and final part recommends a range of electronic and print resources.
