Title

Ermete Novelli: Conferenza letta la sera del 27 Aprile 1919 alla "Irish Federation Hall" di New York per l'inaugurazione del "Circolo Filodrammatica Ermete Novelli" [Ermete Novelli: lecture read the evening of 27 April 1919 at "Irish Federation Hall" of New York for the opening of the "Philodrammatic Circle of Ermete Novelli."] New York: Manhattan Printing Co., 1919.

Description



As the title of this work explains, this talk was given by Cordiferro at the opening of the Philodrammatic Circle of Ermete Novelli.

Ermete Novelli was an Italian tragedian who, beginning in 1907, toured in the U.S. (after having done so for years elsewhere around the world). He had a repetoire of 100 comic and tragic plays. Supposedly of a noble Italian family, he made his first appearance on stage at the age of 5.

At the time of this reading of Cordiferro's, Novelli would have been about 60.

The last of the photos for this item is unrelated to this work: it is the press card issued on March 27, 1920, to Cordiferro by La Notizia, a Boston Italian-language radical newspaper, asking that courtesies be shown to this "correspondent and agent" of the newspaper. La Notizia was for some time directed by Vincenzo Vacirca, q.v., and Vittorio Buttis (q.v., Memorie di vita di tempeste sociali) was a columnist for it.
