Description
An account of the resource
May Day was perhaps the single most important day of the anarchist and socialist year in the U.S. and elsewhere, celebrating the worker and the primacy of workers over capitalists. Years later, May Day celebrations were replaced by more sedate "Labor Day" celebrations in September that organized labor, anxious to show its anti-communist and generally anti-leftist credentials, used to replace May Day. See discussions elsewhere in the collection of May Day. <br /><br />Mariani (b. Castelucchio (Mantua in Lombardy) 1898- d. Sestri Levante (Genoa province in Liguria) 1974) was together with Ettore Aguggini (see his <em>Pensieri</em><em> scelti per l'evoluzione del cervello per servirsene nelle discussioni pacifiche o in contradditorio </em>in the collection) and Giuseppe Boldrini, involved in the Diana Theatre "slaughter" in Milan in 1921, which by error killed 21 people and injured 150 or so exiting theatre goers instead of Milan Police Chief Gasti, who lived in the hotel next door. The bombing was carried out in protest of the continued detention of the editors of <em>Umanità Nova</em>, including Errico Malatesta and Armando Borghi, and led to fascist reprisals against all leftists, including destruction of the offices, including printing presses of <em>Avanti!</em> and <em>Umanità Nova</em>, and propagandizing of the event. <br /><br />See Victoria de Grazia, <em>The Perfect Fascist: a Story of Love, Power and Morality in Mussolini's Italy</em> (2020) for a good discussion of the bombing of the Diana Theatre and how the fascists used the incident to suppress the left and build momentum for their own movement.<br /><br />This work includes reprints of writings by Luigi Galleani and by Pietro Gori relating to the Haymarket riots of 1886 on the 70th anniversary of that event, and includes pictorial portraits of many of the original Haymarket figures. The collection includes a great many works by Galleani and some of Gori.

Title
A name given to the resource
<em>Histories, philosophy, biographies, directories, almanacs, annuals, religious, educational, and travel literature</em>
Subject
The topic of the resource
These largely non-political works reflect a broad pallette of non-fiction reflections on the history of Italians in the U.S., travel literature, biographies (like that of the Peanut King, Obici), or the religious, like Sister, later Mother, and final Saint Cabrini.
Description
An account of the resource
In these non-fiction works, Italians reflected upon themselves and their American experiences. Representing the non-<em>sovversivi</em> type of immigrant, who were more interested in becoming American and “making it” in America than in stoking class warfare and remaking society, They began to place themselves in the context of contemporary American society and the history in America. <br /><br />The release in 1921 of Alfredo Bosi’s <em>Cinquant’anni di vita italiana in America</em>, the first history of Italians in the United States, represented a watershed - the first 50 years of Italians in America - and allegedly arose from a conversation between journalist Bosi and King Vittorio Emanuele of Italy in 1901, in which the king expressed curiosity about the Italian colony in America. <br /><br />Luigi Roversi’s biography of Palma di Cesnola proudly places that Italian within the august homes of white Anglo-Saxon Protestant America, into which di Cesnola had married, and where he ruled as the first director of the Metropolitan Museum of Art. <br /><br />More than the first half of Flamma’s “biography” of the greatest mayor New York City had ever seen, Fiorello LaGuardia, has little to do with La Guardia, unfortunately, but the work did reflect his obvious pride that after electing mayors in 29 other cities, Italians “finally” elected (in 1933) a mayor of Italian heritage to the country’s most important city. <br /><br />The directories discussed here, from New York to San Francisco, provide a particularly rich source of information about the different businesses and professions Italians had in virtually every state of the union, from as early as the 1880s (in San Francisco) to the first few decades of the 20th Century (primarily in New York).

Description
An account of the resource
Inscribed by author, former Italian ambassador to Washington, this is a lecture that he was invited to give in late 1903 at several Chambers of Commerce of the Kingdom to demonstrate the advantage that Italian arts and industries would receive by participating in the World's Fair at St. Louis that opened in April, 1904. <br /><br />The reason is that the initial invitation for Italy to have an exhibit at the St. Louis Fair was met with indifference at first by the Italian public, as well as by official industries. But, Mayor des Planches says, there are now so many Italians in the U.S., that our co-nationals there say it's imperative that we show the marvels of Italian arts and culture, especially when American antipathy toward the ever increasing numbers of Italian immigrants is on the rise.

This copy of the celebrated study by Mayor des Planches (b. Turin, 1851; d. Rome, 1920), written during his years in the U.S., is inscribed by the author to a baronessa. <br /><br />During his travels across the U.S., while ambassador to Washington from 1901–1909, this Piedmontese aristocrat collected information on the demographics of Italian Americans, and reported his findings in this study. <br /><br />Mayor des Planches extols the virtues of agricultural work, suggesting that Italians would do much better applying their native agricultural talents in the rural South than, seemingly, in the urban centers of the U.S.

<em>Looking homeward: Publication in Italy (and elsewhere) of works about Americans and Italians</em>
Subject
The topic of the resource
For a variety of reasons, Italians in America looking to publish their works in Italian did not or could not always find publishers in the U.S., and so they turned "homewards" to Italy. Sometimes they already had publishers in their native land, and there seemed to be a market for and interest in works about America.
Description
An account of the resource
<p>The writers here sometimes looked homeward, to Italy (but also France and elsewhere), to find a publisher who was sufficiently interested in the adventures of an Italian in America -- the very title of Adolfo Rossi’s very entertaining <em>Un italiano in America --</em> published in Milan. <br /><br />Writers looked to foreign publishers to provide publication, and possibly readership, more in keeping with the traditional view of book publishing and book production values to which the more highly trained among the Italian journalists in America gravitated. Some, like the Piedmontese aristocrat Mayor des Planches, who was Italian ambassador to Washington from 1901-1909, always intended to return to Italy, and did so. Publication in Turin of his <em>Attraverso gli Stati Uniti – per l’emigrazione italiana</em> occurred a good three or more years after his tour of duty was completed, and so he kept an admirable objectivity and cool demeanor toward the subject of his study. </p>
<p>Cordiferro’s <em>Ode alla Calabria</em>, published in Buenos Aires in 1933, but reflecting a literary salon that had taken place in Brooklyn some years before, mirrored the broadly felt literary interest of the Italian diaspora wherever Italians might be in the writing of other emigrated Italians, and the global nature of Italian culture. </p>

<em>Looking homeward: Publication in Italy (and elsewhere) of works about Americans and Italians</em>
Subject
The topic of the resource
For a variety of reasons, Italians in America looking to publish their works in Italian did not or could not always find publishers in the U.S., and so they turned "homewards" to Italy. Sometimes they already had publishers in their native land, and there seemed to be a market for and interest in works about America.
Description
An account of the resource
<p>The writers here sometimes looked homeward, to Italy (but also France and elsewhere), to find a publisher who was sufficiently interested in the adventures of an Italian in America -- the very title of Adolfo Rossi’s very entertaining <em>Un italiano in America --</em> published in Milan. <br /><br />Writers looked to foreign publishers to provide publication, and possibly readership, more in keeping with the traditional view of book publishing and book production values to which the more highly trained among the Italian journalists in America gravitated. Some, like the Piedmontese aristocrat Mayor des Planches, who was Italian ambassador to Washington from 1901-1909, always intended to return to Italy, and did so. Publication in Turin of his <em>Attraverso gli Stati Uniti – per l’emigrazione italiana</em> occurred a good three or more years after his tour of duty was completed, and so he kept an admirable objectivity and cool demeanor toward the subject of his study. </p>
<p>Cordiferro’s <em>Ode alla Calabria</em>, published in Buenos Aires in 1933, but reflecting a literary salon that had taken place in Brooklyn some years before, mirrored the broadly felt literary interest of the Italian diaspora wherever Italians might be in the writing of other emigrated Italians, and the global nature of Italian culture. </p>

Description
An account of the resource
Bernardy was a pioneering journalist in Italy in the early 20th century, and published this work on social life in Italian America. Born in 1880 in Florence, daughter of a Savoyard Italian mother and the American consul to Florence, she wrote for the popular <em>Il Corriere della Sera</em> (The Evening Courier) and for the Italian magazine <em>La Donna</em> (Woman). <br /><br />She loved to travel, and in seeing how poorly Italians fared after they emigrated, not unlike Adolfo Rossi, q.v., the immigration of Italians became her regular journalistic theme. She denounced Italy’s failure to provide for its emigrants in other countries, especially given the deplorable conditions in which Italians worked in American factories.
