Italian Signs, American Streets: The Evolution of Italian American Narrative
ISBN: 9780822317395 / Angielski / Miękka / 1996 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. In the first major critical reading of Italian American narrative literature in two decades, Fred L. Gardaphe presents an interpretive overview of Italian American literary history.

Gardaphe draws on Vico's concept of history, as well as the work of Gramsci, to establish... In the first major critical reading of Italian American narrative literature in two decades, Fred L. Gardaphe presents an interpretive overview of Ita...
