Description
An account of the resource
See the general entry for <em>Il Martello</em> for the years 1918-1943 (repeated in a few descriptions of individual issues) for the history of the founding and running by Carlo Tresca of this, perhaps the most famous and almost surely the most long-lived of the radical newspapers in Italian in the Italian American community.<br /><br />This is a bound volume - the first of two - of 20 issues of the newspaper-magazine <em>Il Martello</em>, spanning the period from 1918-1919. This was bound by hand by a subscriber and great admirer of Tresca's - Augusto Lentricchia, and was a gift to me of Frank Lentricchia, novelist and Katherine Everett Gilbert Professor of Literature and Theater Studies at Duke University.<br /><br />It includes important works like a novella of Arturo Giovannitti, "Come era nel principio ..." and frequent contributions from Vincenzo Vacirca, who himself founded several important magazines that are in the collection, <em>La Strada</em> and <em>Il Solco</em>, and other important radical writers, such as Ludovico Caminita. A poem by Efrem Bartoletti celebrating the appearance of <em>Il Martello</em> in December of 1917 graces the verso of the cover page of the January 1, 1918 issue (erroneously dated January 1, <em>1917</em>).<br /><p>That a reader of a review like <em>Il Martello</em> would lovingly gather issues into a homemade binding, beginning only a year after the magazine's founding in 1917, is a measure of the affection that Tresca’s followers felt for him and everything he did. An immigrant from Morollo, south of Rome, Augusto Lentricchia settled in Utica in the first decade of the 20th century, where he worked for the New York Central Railroad, from which he was fired several times for trying to organize other railroad workers to radical causes. Lentricchia was also a poet who wrote about radical issues; one of his poems was published in <em>Il Martello</em>. His bound diaries containing his poetry were donated by Professor Lentricchia to the Italian American Collection at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.<br /><br />List of issues in this volume:<br /><br /><span style="font-size:13px;color:#000000;text-decoration:none;font-family:Arial;font-style:normal;">1 (1 Gennaio [January] 1917 [sic]), <br />2 (16 Gennaio), <br />3 (16 Febbraio [February]), <br />4 (1 Marzo [March], <br />5 (16 Marzo), <br />6 (1 Aprile [April], <br />7 (15 Aprile), <br />8 (16 Maggio [May]), <br />9 (1 Giugno [June]), <br />10 (16 Giugno),<br />11 (1 Luglio [July]),<br />13 (1 Agosto [August]), <br />14 (16 Agosto), <br />15 (1 Settembre [September], <br />16 (1 Ottobre [October]), <br />17 (16 Ottobre), <br />19 (16 Novembre [November]), - <br /><br />incomplete Anno IV - 1919, Nos.<br />1 (1 Gennaio), <br />2 (16 Gennaio), <br />3 (1 Febbraio). </span></p>

Description
An account of the resource
Carlo Tresca was the editor-in-chief (or equivalent) at several radical newspapers over his career, but the one that he founded and ran for decades — <em>Il Martello</em> — is the one most closely identified with him, and he with it. <br /><br />Tresca founded <em>Il Martello</em> in 1917, and he directed it (with some interruptions due to poor finances) until his assassination in 1943. <br /><br />As is evident from the broad range of writing genres it encompassed, <em>Il Martello</em> was not a traditional Italian anarchist newspaper or a “movement” publication in the specific way that <em>La Questione Sociale</em> (edited by Ludovico Caminita and by Galleani briefly) was for anarcho-syndicalists, or the <em>Cronaca Sovversiva</em> and <em>L’Adunata dei Refrattari</em> were for anti-organizationist anarchist communists like Galleani and his followers. <br /><br />Rather, <em>Il Martello</em> was too eclectic and unorthodox, like Tresca himself, to be classified according to conventional typology —“You can’t label him. You can’t classify him,” said Max Eastman in a famous <em>The New Yorker</em> profile. <br /><br />The personal affection that Tresca’s friends and colleagues had for him infuriated the more cerebral Galleani and his ultraloyal founders, who unfairly attacked Tresca personally when they were unable to do so doctrinally.

Carlo Tresca was the editor-in-chief (or equivalent) at several radical newspapers over his career, but the one that he founded and ran for decades — <em>Il Martello</em> — is the one most closely identified with him, and he with it. <br /><br />Tresca founded <em>Il Martello</em> in 1917, and he directed it (with some interruptions due to poor finances) until his assassination in 1943. <br /><br />As is evident from the broad range of writing genres it encompassed, <em>Il Martello</em> was not a traditional Italian anarchist newspaper or a “movement” publication in the specific way that <em>La Questione Sociale</em> (edited by Ludovico Caminita and by Galleani briefly) was for anarcho-syndicalists, or the <em>Cronaca Sovversiva</em> and <em>L’Adunata dei Refrattari</em> were for anti-organizationist anarchist communists like Galleani and his followers. <br /><br />Rather, <em>Il Martello</em> was too eclectic and unorthodox, like Tresca himself, to be classified according to conventional typology —“You can’t label him. You can’t classify him,” said Max Eastman in a famous <em>The New Yorker</em> profile. <br /><br />The personal affection that Tresca’s friends and colleagues had for him infuriated the more cerebral Galleani and his ultraloyal founders, who unfairly attacked Tresca personally when they were unable to do so doctrinally.

An account of the resource
The collection is rich in hard to find magazines and/or newspapers like Ernesto Valentini's <em>Zarathustra</em>, Vincenzo Vacirca's <em>Il Solco </em>and <em>La Strada</em>, Aldino Felicani's <em>La Controcorrente</em>, <em>Il Proletario</em>, Enrico Arrigoni's <em>Eresia</em>, Carlo Tresca's <em>Il Martello</em> and <em>Guardia Rossa</em>, Antonino Capraro's <em>Alba Nuova</em>, Arturo Giovannitti's <em>Vita</em>, Agostino De Biasi's <em>Il Carroccio, </em>T. Lucidi's <em>Il Messaggero della Salute</em>, Guido Podrecca's and Gabriele Galantara's <em>L'Asino</em> (this last mostly published in Rome) and others.<br /><br />As Francesco Durante rightly observed in <em>Italoamericana</em>, understanding the contribution of journalism among Italian Americans - almost solely in Italian at the outset - to the community life, as well as to the culture of the immigrant community, is central to understanding that community. <br /><br />Virtually all of the writers whose book-length works we see and celebrate in the collection, whether political or not, began their writing careers with newspaper or magazine writing. Some even immigrated to the U.S. precisely to do just that, but those were exceptional.<br /><br />The politics of the magazines and newspapers ran the gamut from left to right, and some - e.g., <em>Il Messaggero della Salute</em> - were not really political in that sense at all. The separation often observed between the political and the literary sections of the magazines is surprising and deserves examination all by itself: one can find the stories of Clara Vacirca, married to and sharing the political leanings of the socialist Vincenzo Vacirca, published in the right-wing <em>Il Carroccio</em>, and less overtly political writers like Salvatore Benanti and Federico Mennella often contributed literary pieces to leftist periodicals like <em>La Follia di New York. </em>For example, Mennella wrote the dialect column for <em>La Follia </em>for some time. The catholic nature of the magazines in the literary culture of the Italians reflected one of its strengths.<br /><br />Whatever the mixture of news from Italy and from America, whether "news events," or political or cultural commentary, short stories or poems, whether from Italians still in Italy or immigrants in the U.S. or translated from German, French. English or Russian - all of which were quite prevalent - or elaborations of philosophies of living, sometimes imported but sometimes "home-grown" in the U.S., the magazines and newspapers provide a rich insight into this world. <br /><br />Beyond the articles themselves were, in many cases, letters to the editors and lists of new subscribers (and the cities and towns they lived in), both of which enlarge our understanding of what parts of the immigrant community were reached and affected by the printed word. <br /><br />This, too, is a subject that deserves close examination, and has been discussed recently, for example, in a fine essay by historian Adam Quinn discussing whether the <em>Cronaca Sovversiva</em> of the anti-organizational anarchist Luigi Galleani was a "seditious rag" or a community newspaper - or both. Quinn clearly concludes that it was both. The same can be said for <em>Il Martello</em>, <em>La Follia di New York</em>, <em>Il Carroccio</em> and many of the other political magazines - they were part of the "glue" that held together the Italian community quite beyond their immediate political messages.

Carlo Tresca was the editor-in-chief (or equivalent) at several radical newspapers over his career, but the one that he founded and ran for decades — <em>Il Martello</em> — is the one most closely identified with him, and he with it. <br /><br />Tresca founded <em>Il Martello</em> in 1916, and he directed it (with some interruptions due to poor finances) until his assassination in 1943; the paper continued for a few more years, until 1946. <br /><br />As is evident from the broad range of writing genres it encompassed, <em>Il Martello</em> was not a traditional Italian anarchist newspaper or a “movement” publication in the specific way that <em>La Questione Sociale</em> (edited by Galleani and Caminita) was for anarcho-syndicalists. <br /><br />Rather, <em>Il Martello</em> was too eclectic and unorthodox, like Tresca himself, to be classified according to conventional typology —“You can’t label him. You can’t classify him,” said Max Eastman in a famous profile in <em>The New Yorker</em>.<br /><br /><span>In 1923, </span><i>Il Martello</i><span> reached international distribution, being mailed throughout Italy. Tresca mailed his paper to subscribers in Italy without charging any money, according to Nunzio Pernicone in <em>Carlo Tresca: Portrait of a Rebel</em>. The Italian government responded by banning the importation of </span><i>Il Martello. </i>This was probably a "first" for an Italian-language American periodical's foray into the Italian market. (It's the converse of the banning of export of L'Asino from Rome to the United States that led to the "publication" in New York of the same magazine, with the same cartoons and stories but with advertisements from New York Italian businesses, not Roman ones.)<br /><br />The personal affection that Tresca’s friends and colleagues had for him infuriated the more cerebral Galleani and his ultraloyal founders, who unfairly attacked Tresca personally when they were unable to do so doctrinally. Still, there was plenty in Tresca's life - e.g., his affair with a 16-year old tutoring him in English - that merited personal disapproval and even condemnation with Galleanisti looking very hard.<br /><br />The collection includes:<br /><br /><div id="dublin-core-title" class="element">

<em>Political subversives III: Fascists and anti-fascists</em>
Description
An account of the resource
<p>The Anti-Fascist movement embraced diverse leftists, including Carlo Tresca, as noted above. Opposition to Mussolini from the left was reflected by activities of the Anti-Fascist Alliance of North America, which formed common ground for anarchists, socialists/syndicalists and communists to temporarily set aside their differences and unite against fascist oppression. Gone, at least temporarily, were the debates about proper philosophy of the left: the goal was to unite in order to defeat fascism.<br /><br />As for fascism itself, its roots were in the nationalist fervor stoked by Italy’s late 19<sup>th</sup> and early 20<sup>th</sup> century imperialist ventures in Africa, which are reflected in several items in the collection. Fascism itself<span>, with its </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_radicalism">radical</a><span> nationalist agenda, </span>came to prominence in the first quarter of 20th-century Europe, originating in Italy during<span> </span><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_War_I">World War I</a>. Benito Mussolini founded the Fascist Party, a right-wing organization which launched a campaign of terrorism and intimidation against its leftist opponents, and forced the king in 1922 to name him the Prime Minister as a result of the fascists’ show of force in the March on Rome. </p>
<p>In America, active fascist supporters started two magazines that vied for primacy with Mussolini as instruments of the Fascist Party in America. Agostino de Biasi’s <em>Il Carroccio</em>, (The Chariot) was published from 1915 until 1935 - most years of the magazine are in the collection - with a circulation of about 10,000–12,000, long-lived initially but ultimately with a circulation of only about one-third of Domenico Trombetta’s far more militant <em>Il Grido della Stirpe</em> (The Cry of the Race), which became the largest circulation pro-fascist periodical at about 30,000 at its height in the mid-late 1920s, dropping to about 5,000 in the late 1930s as Italian Americans soured on Mussolini.</p>
<p>Mussolini also promoted teaching the Italian language to Italian American schoolchildren, reflected in several items in the collection.</p>
<p>Both fascist and therefore anti-fascist activities were not confined to New York, Chicago and other big cities. By the early 1920s, Fascist Party cells in the United States were present in Buffalo, Albany, Rochester and Syracuse.</p>
<p> </p>
Subject
The topic of the resource
This section of the collection reflects tensions between fascists and anti-fascists. But the anti-fascist movement in the U.S. among Italians and others had far less to fear from Mussolini than did such dissidents in Italy itself.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">This work reproduces, first, the record of a debate on March 25, 1904 (and Mussolini’s preface thereto, dated July 1904), in Lausanne (Lossana), Switzerland between the then virulently anti-clerical young socialist Mussolini, already known for his violent oratory and animal vitality, and the evangelist Taglialatella over the existence of God, in which Mussolini affirmed his belief in the absurdity of the concept of God. <br /><br />The editors here note that they are republishing the record of this debate twenty years later — after Mussolini became Italy’s prime minister, but probably before he became “Il Duce” in 1925 — to reflect a favorite radical theme about the once anti-clerical Mussolini: that in consolidating his power and distancing himself from his early socialist and anti-clerical roots, he embraced the Church and capitalism, and in so doing became a “</span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">voltagabbana”</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;"> (turncoat) to his origins. See also reference to Paolo Valera's <em>Mussolini</em>, to the same effect, in description of his <em>Il fascismo</em>.<br /><br />The second essay recounts a religious debate between Tancredi and a priest in Providence, R.I., on December 11, 1910, subsequent to the first edition. See Antinatale (New York, 1910]for another work in the Collection by Tancredi. The third is a translation of a French political philosopher’s argument about the “lies” of patriotism.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">It was at the time and place of the 1904 debate that Carlo Tresca met Mussolini, who chided the older Tresca for “not being revolutionary” enough, according to Tresca in his autobiography. It is difficult to imagine anything more ironic, given their later histories, than that Mussolini could have said at any time that Tresca “was not sufficiently imbued with the spirit of revolt.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">This undated work calls itself a “second edition” at “the distance of twenty years” from its first appearance in print. Indeed, it would have been virtually impossible to print or publish it in Italy, if it was in fact 1924, for by that time, Mussolini had managed to pass legislation to gag the press.</span></p>
This work was heavily advertised in <em>Il Martello</em> in 1924-1925.

<strong><em>L'anima; Il diavolo e L'inferno</em> </strong>[The Soul, the Devil and Hell]. <strong>New York: Casa ed. del <em>Martello</em>, 1924.</strong>
Description
An account of the resource
The preface by Carlo Tresca sets up the themes of the work: that believers think the soul is immortal, that there is an "eternal world" that he deems "horrible" in which believers are supposed to - according to his usual enemies, the priests - both suffer pain and experience happiness from a "gruff but good God." <br /><br />Professor Villa, in Part I of this wide-ranging philosophical tract, looks at the soul and the doctrine of immortality, which, he says, allows believers to ignore the injustices of this world because of their focus on the next. <br /><br />TTS (whose real name I do not know), in Part II, traces the meaning and history of the devil. The author asked himself as a child, "Why did God create the Devil?" <br /><br />In the longest section of this work, Part III, Alete Dal Canto (b. Roma 1883 - d. Roma 1968) traces the idea of Hell, which he says, is as old as the mountains, in Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Chinese and other cultures.

<em>Political subversives IV: Arturo Giovannitti, Carlo Tresca, and their circles</em>
Description
An account of the resource
Arturo Giovannitti immigrated to Montreal at the age of 17, where he became a Protestant pastor. He then moved to Pennsylvania, preaching mostly to miners. He later left the church to join the labor movement after becoming interested in socialist ideas. Participating in the great Bread and Roses strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts in 1912, Giovannitti was accused falsely of the homicide of striker Anna Lo Pizzo, and arrested, along with Joseph Ettor and Joseph Caruso. Speaking in his defense while on trial in Salem, he delivered a legendary apologia in English that was subsequently published in both English and Italian under the title “The Walker,” further establishing his charismatic leadership. <br /><br />After 1920, Giovannitti was among the organizers of the committee for the defense of Sacco and Vanzetti, a major leader of the anti-fascist movement, thus of the Anti-Fascist Alliance of North America (AFANA), and a member of the committee formed to push for the investigation of the assassination of his friend Carlo Tresca. A complex intellectual figure, equally comfortable in both English and Italian, Giovannitti is the rare Italian American writer who, despite the extraordinary reception accorded him within American literary culture, never abandoned the Italian community. His English-language poems were often translated into Italian as well as into Sicilian. Only his Italian-language publications are included here, including especially <em>Quando canta il gallo</em> and several issues of a gorgeous literary-political magazine, <em>Vita</em>, published beginning in 1915, a few issues of which became part of the collection only recently (2021). <br /><br />Carlo Tresca was the radical left’s most complex, fascinating character, a powerful thinker, charismatic orator and rabble rouser, ladies’ man and a warm friend who never forgot the human dimension of people whatever their politics. By the time fascism began to take serious root in Italy, Italian American radicals for the most part put aside their factionalism to join in the fight against totalitarianism. Along with Giovannitti, Tresca was one of the founding members of AFANA. <br /><br />However, Tresca’s popularity earned him a lifetime of enmity from Luigi Galleani and his followers. Tresca’s political views evolved over time from a belief in the need for a revolution to destroy the private ownership of property basic to capitalism, to grass-roots union organizing in 1905, when he became its leading Italian proponent and practitioner, to being an anarchist who nevertheless believes in organized unions or syndicates (anarcho-syndicalism) by 1913. His longest-lived newspaper was <em>Il Martello</em> [The Hammer], constantly in financial and political difficulties – for many years of its publication, he had to submit advance translations into English for the Post Office and Justice Department of each issue – and a significant book-publishing venture of the same name – Casa editrice “Il Martello.” In addition to several years of issues of <em>Il Martello</em>, and a couple of works authored by Tresca himself, the collection includes numerous publications of works by others under the Casa editrice "Il Martello" imprint.

Giovannitti and Tresca stand out as vibrant, charismatic individuals, not unlike Galleani and Borghi but with a broader political and non-political following and personal drama to match.

<strong><em>Chi uccise Carlo Tresca?</em></strong> [Who Killed Carlo Tresca?] <strong>New York: Tresca Memorial Committee, [1947].</strong>
Description
An account of the resource
The cover of this pamphlet (as well as the English language version, in English) notes “Con prefazioni di Arturo Giovannitti e John Dos Passos.” In the earlier (1945) English language version, also in the collection, the goal is stated: to incite readers to “stir the authorities out of their lethargy in the Tresca situation,” urging them to contact Manhattan District Aattorney Frank S. Hogan and the newly appointed police commissioner to undertake a new and independent investigation. This Italian version, issued two years after the English version, also in the Collection, lacks this exhortation at the end, probably because it was no longer timely. <br /><br />As Giovannitti asks in his preface, “Who had any reason to have Carlo murdered? . . . For this man was everybody’s friend, tutor, and counselor; he really loved everybody from the derelict and the destitute up to the teacher, the healer, even the man of affairs. . . . He was a friend of the policeman who arrested him scores of times, of the District Attorney who denounced him as an enemy of society but ate and drank at his table, the jailer who locked him up for interminable days. . . .” <br /><br />Tresca’s attacks on Mussolini were almost surely responsible for his assassination. One evening in 1943 — the same year in which Mussolini was deposed — upon leaving the office of his newspaper, <em>Il Martello</em>, in Union Square, Tresca was gunned down. The circumstances remain mysterious to this day. Some say it was on direct orders from Mussolini because of Tresca’s unrelenting polemics against him. Others, such as union leader (and leading anti-communist) Luigi Antonini, blamed the Communists, and in particular, a former Tresca colleague with whom Tresca had become disenchanted, Vittorio Vidali (known in America as Enea Sormente). The more likely culprit was the then young hitman, Carmine Galante, possibly on orders from Generoso Pope, the pro-Mussolini publisher of <em>Il Progresso Italo-Americano</em>, the largest circulation and longest-lived Italian-language daily. <br /><br />The Tresca Memorial Committee included A. Philip Randolph, Edmund Wilson and John Dewey, as well as its chair, Norman Thomas, the perennial Socialist Party candidate for president.<br /><br />This pamphlet, far more common in its English version (issued in 1945) than in this Italian one (1947), was circulated with the exhortation that “those who believe with us that political murder in the United States must not go unpunished . . . help circulate this pamphlet widely . . . we have no thought of placing the guilt in the Tresca assassination at the door of any specific organization or individual.” <br /><br />While it's not clear who assassinated Tresca, it is certainly clear that Tresca’s assassination obsessed many who loved him.

<em><strong>L'attentato a Mussolini ovvero Il segreto di Pulcinella</strong></em> [The Attempt on Mussolini: or the Secret of Pulcinella]. <strong>New York: Casa Ed. "Il Martello", 1925.</strong>
Description
An account of the resource
The premiere performance of this play opened at the Central Opera House, located at 205 East 67th Street in New York on Sunday, December 13, 1925. It was based on actual historical circumstances — namely, a staged <em>attentato</em>, or attempt (to assassinate Mussolini). <br /><br />When its opening was announced in advance, the Fascist Party ambassador to the U.S. asked the State Department, which considered anarchists like Tresca to be troublesome “Reds,” to prevent the performance from taking place. FBI agents and Bomb Squad officials invaded the theatre on that opening night, and stopped the opening curtain on the specious grounds that the performance would violate New York’s Sunday “Blue Laws.” <br /><br />Tresca took the stage, faulted the government’s prohibition for acting at the behest of Mussolini, whose fascist dictatorship, he exclaimed, was in the thrall of high-finance capitalism. <br /><br />The New York press, which normally disapproved of anarchists like Tresca, expressed sympathy in this case for the anti-fascists, raising questions as to why a foreign government was being placated by American authorities in this way. <br /><br />The claimed attempt on Mussolini’s life was the pretext for the repressive “emergency laws” in Italy of November 1926.

An account of the resource
Arturo Giovannitti immigrated to Montreal at the age of 17, where he became a Protestant pastor. He then moved to Pennsylvania, preaching mostly to miners. He later left the church to join the labor movement after becoming interested in socialist ideas. Participating in the great Bread and Roses strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts in 1912, Giovannitti was accused falsely of the homicide of striker Anna Lo Pizzo, and arrested, along with Joseph Ettor and Joseph Caruso. Speaking in his defense while on trial in Salem, he delivered a legendary apologia in English that was subsequently published in both English and Italian under the title “The Walker,” further establishing his charismatic leadership. <br /><br />After 1920, Giovannitti was among the organizers of the committee for the defense of Sacco and Vanzetti, a major leader of the anti-fascist movement, thus of the Anti-Fascist Alliance of North America (AFANA), and a member of the committee formed to push for the investigation of the assassination of his friend Carlo Tresca. A complex intellectual figure, equally comfortable in both English and Italian, Giovannitti is the rare Italian American writer who, despite the extraordinary reception accorded him within American literary culture, never abandoned the Italian community. His English-language poems were often translated into Italian as well as into Sicilian. Only his Italian-language publications are included here, including especially <em>Quando canta il gallo</em> and several issues of a gorgeous literary-political magazine, <em>Vita</em>, published beginning in 1915, a few issues of which became part of the collection only recently (2021). <br /><br />Carlo Tresca was the radical left’s most complex, fascinating character, a powerful thinker, charismatic orator and rabble rouser, ladies’ man and a warm friend who never forgot the human dimension of people whatever their politics. By the time fascism began to take serious root in Italy, Italian American radicals for the most part put aside their factionalism to join in the fight against totalitarianism. Along with Giovannitti, Tresca was one of the founding members of AFANA. <br /><br />However, Tresca’s popularity earned him a lifetime of enmity from Luigi Galleani and his followers. Tresca’s political views evolved over time from a belief in the need for a revolution to destroy the private ownership of property basic to capitalism, to grass-roots union organizing in 1905, when he became its leading Italian proponent and practitioner, to being an anarchist who nevertheless believes in organized unions or syndicates (anarcho-syndicalism) by 1913. His longest-lived newspaper was <em>Il Martello</em> [The Hammer], constantly in financial and political difficulties – for many years of its publication, he had to submit advance translations into English for the Post Office and Justice Department of each issue – and a significant book-publishing venture of the same name – Casa editrice “Il Martello.” In addition to several years of issues of <em>Il Martello</em>, and a couple of works authored by Tresca himself, the collection includes numerous publications of works by others under the Casa editrice "Il Martello" imprint.
Subject
The topic of the resource
Giovannitti and Tresca stand out as vibrant, charismatic individuals, not unlike Galleani and Borghi but with a broader political and non-political following and personal drama to match.

Description
An account of the resource
This is a report of a debate between famously anti-clerical Carlo Tresca and the Rev. Griglio.<br /><br />It is one of a fair number of political events that took place in New York (in Manhattan Hall, in this case) or elsewhere in the U.S. that resonated enough in Italy for a publisher there to want to publish an account of it.

Description
An account of the resource
This magazine by Carlo Tresca did not have a terribly long run, especially compared to his signature work, <em>Il Martello</em>, q.v. I do not know in what sense the "Red Guard" could have been considered a "white terror." (To say the obvious, Tresca, whose opposition to injustice extended to his decrying the lynching of Blacks, was not advocating any form of white superiority.)<br /><br />Tresca's preface, see photo, notes that when he first set foot in America, in August 1914, he was inspired by the Statue of Liberty to believe he had arrived in the land of liberty. But he'd come to know otherwise, and declared in this first issue of a new magazine in 1920 - three years after he had started <em>Il Martello</em> - that he had become disillusioned, disenchanted with the United States, the reasons for which the reader would find out in the pages that follow in the magazine. What <em>Guardia Rossa</em> might have offered readers that <em>Il Martello</em> did not already do so is unclear.<br /><br />Note that the nominal publisher, Libreria Rossa [Red Bookstore, or Red Library], was a name that appears on the same letterhead as that of <em>Il Martello </em>in the holographic undated letter of Tresca's in the Collection, q.v. The letterhead shows U. Nieri as the Secretary of the Libreria Rossa. <br /><br />The Collection has several other works published by the Libreria Rossa, some of which are associated - at an earlier time - with Elvira Catello, q.v., a writer, bookseller and publisher in New York who appears to be the first Italian American woman, writing in Italian, having the latter two of these three roles.

<strong><em>Le dittature: contro la libertà dei popoli </em></strong>[Dictatorships: against the Freedom of the People]. <strong>New York: "ll Martello" Pub. Co., Inc., [192-?].</strong>
Description
An account of the resource
The verso of the cover of this pamphlet states “(Tradotto dal supplemento de <em>La Protesta</em> di Buenos Aires)” (translated from the supplement of <em>La Protesta</em> of Buenos Aires).<em> La Protesta</em> is an Argentine anarchist newspaper still in publication. <br /><br />The final paragraph of Fabbri’s essay ends with the statement, “Enough of dictatorship and tyranny; the revolution has finally come!” <br /><br />Fabbri (b. Ancona, 1877; d. Montevideo, 1935) was a close comrade of Errico Malatesta, the godfather of Italian anarchism, in Ancona in Italy, and later became Malatesta's biographer. In fact, many of Carlo Tresca’s articles were reprints of anarchist writings and doctrines of Malatesta, Fabbri, and Pietro Gori. <br /><br />Fabbri was briefly considered as a possible replacement for Tresca as editor of <em>Il Martello</em>: however, Fabbri lived in Montevideo, in Uruguay, at that time, and nothing came of the effort. <br /><br />After suspensions of the newspaper due to poor finances, it resumed publication in 1934 with a new office and new infusion of cash, probably from the newest woman in Tresca's life, Margaret DeSilver. It was also starting at this time, whether coincidentally or not, that issues of <em>Il Martello</em> opened more in English than in Italian, as did the entire last page; that this change occurred at the same time that Tresca began drafting his autobiography in English (and that <em>Il Progresso Italo Americano</em> began a similar practice) is noteworthy, as Martino Marazzi points out, in the gradual “Americanization” of a man who remained resolutely Italian.

<em>Imaginative literature of the great migration: Fiction, poetry, drama, music, and art in books, magazines, and other works on paper</em>
Description
An account of the resource
During this period fiction, poetry and drama ranged from the sensational urban “mysteries” of Bernardino Ciambelli (never translated into English) to the arguably more literary and certainly more political fiction of Ezio Taddei. Unlike most of the others, Taddei enjoyed a significant, however brief, success in American intellectual circles, with English translations of most of his American works. Illustrations, such as those by Costantino Nivola (the first non-American admitted to the American Academy of Arts and Letters) in <em>Parole Colletive</em>, matched the sophistication of Taddei’s writing. Poetry was written largely in dialect rather than the standard Italian used by the novelists, could be found in the poetry, of Calicchiu Pucciu, or Francesco Sisca. Drama, more than the other genres, was largely though not exclusively devoted to political education, and was often the central entertainment of May Day picnics of Italian leftists consisting of performances of the plays of Gigi Damiani or other dramatists, discussed in Section VII. <br /><br />Italian American theatre began in New York in the 1870s. Theatre filled important emotional needs -- entertainment, a support system and social intercourse, supported by a network of fraternal and benevolent associations. Italian and European writers were introduced to immigrant audiences, whether in Italian, Neapolitan, Sicilian or other dialects. The Italian American experience furnished the subject matter for original plays written by Italian immigrant playwrights. <br /><br />Among them, Eduardo Migliaccio, known as Farfariello, who appears in one of the playbills advertising his performance here, made the Italian American immigrant the hero of his dramatic creations. Riccardo Cordiferro, several of whose play scripts appear here, concerned himself in his plays, as in his philosophical writings, with the social conditions of the Italian immigrant, and was less action-oriented than, say, the hard-core work of the <em>sovversivi</em>. Women in the theatre, like Ria Rosa, whose playbills appear here, enjoyed freedom and an outlet for creativity not available to women who played out their lives in traditional domestic roles. Antonio Maiori introduced Shakespeare to his immigrant audiences in his southern Italian dialect productions. <br /><br />Guglielmo Ricciardi, whose later memoirs appear in the collection, originated Italian American theatre in Brooklyn, and went on to a successful career in American theatre and cinema. Magazines reflected the politics of the publishers to a greater or lesser extent, whether of the nationalist (and later Fascist) <em>Il Carroccio</em>, or Arturo Giovannitti’s literary but also politically leftist <em>Vita</em>, Vincenzo Vacirca’s <em>Il Solco</em>, Ernesto Vallentini’s socialist <em>Zarathustra</em>, or Enrico Arrigoni’s anarchist-individualist <em>Eresia</em>, all of which are reflected in the collection. <br /><br />The generically (and gently) leftist and anti-clerical <em>La Follia di New York</em> was was one of the earliest, in the 1890s, begun by the Sisca family (of whom Alessandro, pen name Riccardo Cordiferro, was the most celebrated), and was perhaps the single longest-lived magazine published in Italian in the U.S. <br /><br />Cordiferro’s brother, Marziale Sisca, packaged the caricatures of the charismatic Enrico Caruso that adorned the pages of <em>La Follia</em> into a book that went through many editions, beginning in 1908 and continuing with an edition as late as 1965, which suggests that it financially sustained <em>La Follia</em>. <br /><br />Evidence of widespread cultural influence may be found in publications which included letters from enthusiastic readers or reviewers preceding or following the work itself, much like today’s review blurbs, and also lists of subscribers from around the entire country.
Subject
The topic of the resource
While the amount of political literature (anarchist, socialist, fascist) in the collection suggests its prevalence in the Italian American community, it might well be the great survival rate of those materials that's responsible. <br /><br />The non-political imaginative literature created in Italian by the Italian community in the U.S., richer in wildly varying qualities, philosophies and interests than the political literature perhaps, provide a three-dimensional view of the Italian community.

Description
An account of the resource
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">Ezio Taddei (b. Livorno, 1895 - d. Rome, 1956) was involved in Italian politics at an early age: at thirteen he was arrested for involvement in a demonstration connected with a nurses’ strike in a Roman hospital. When released from prison, he found the doors of his home closed to him, and began life as a vagabond. He was sentenced in February 1922, along with 32 other anarchists, by the Court of Assizzes in Genoa for conspiracy to destroy several private and public buildings. <br /><br />Overall Taddei spent 18 years in Italian jails, first for his anti-bourgeois activities and later for his anti-fascist activities; these experiences animated and fueled much of his writing. War and imprisonment fostered his desire for social justice, reinforced by his reading, especially 19th-century Russian realist novels. The Russian radical Mikhail Bakunin, who arrived in Italy in 1864 and believed in immediate armed revolution, attracted intellectuals like Taddei; he and anarchist Errico Malatesta recur as models for the fictional alter egos under which Taddei wrote.<br /><br />This work, with a preface by the writer Alfredo Segre, comprises seven stories, written in the late 1930s during the last few of Taddei’s 18 years of imprisonment in the Fortezza di Civitavecchia in Italy. It goes without saying that publication of such a work in Italy would have been impossible in 1941.<br /><br />The artist for these sketches spread throughout the work, and probably also the unsigned collage depicted on the cover, was Costantino Nivola (b. Orani, Italy, 1911; d. Southampton, NY, 1988), a Sardinian graphic and fine artist and sculptor. Fearing for the safety of his American Jewish wife, Ruth Guggenheim, Nivola fled Italy with her for America in 1939, where he became art director of</span><i><span style="font-weight:400;"> Interiors and Progressive Architecture,</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;"> the first non-American admitted (in 1972) to the American Academy of Arts and Letters, and an intimate of de Kooning and Jackson Pollock. <br /><br />The American edition of this work, </span><i><span style="font-weight:400;">Hard as Stone</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;">, was translated by Frances Keene and published in New York by New Writers in 1942. The Collection contains six of Taddei's works.<br /></span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight:400;">As is evident from the translations into English of several of his works, Taddei (unlike most of the other writers in the Collection) enjoyed a significant, however brief, success in American intellectual circles. A frequent critic of the racist and anti-immigrant fervor in the U.S., in New York he was welcomed by Carlo Tresca and, following Tresca’s assassination in February 1943, made an i</span><span style="font-weight:400;">mpassioned speech on the street outside the offices of</span><i><span style="font-weight:400;"> Il Martello</span></i><span style="font-weight:400;"> about the need to find the assassin.<br /><br />Martino Marazzi has a fine, extended biographical discussion of Taddei (in <em>Voices of Italian America</em>, 152 et seq.) as well as excerpts there in translation from <em>Le porte dell'inferno</em> and, also in the Collection, <em>Ho rinunciato alla libertà. </em>Durante also has an extended biographical introduction and appraisal of Taddei's special place in Italian American letters.</span></p>
