Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a microhistory study of village settlements in early modern Northwest Italy that aims to expand the notion of place to include the process of producing a locality; that is, the production of native local subjects through practices, rituals and other forms of collective action. Undertaking a micro-analytical approach, the book examines the customs and practices associated with typically fragmented and polycentric Italian village settlements to analyze the territorial tensions between various segments of a village and its neighbors. The microspatial analysis reveals how these tensions are the expressions of conflictual relationships between lay, ecclesiastical and charitable bodies culminating in a "culture of fragmentation" that impacts local economic and political practices. The book also traces how the production of locality survived throughout the nineenth and twentieth century and is still observed today. In this light, the study of practices and policies of locality over time that this book undertakes is an essential tool to better understand the nature and role of these social bonds in today’s society. Archival records and the methods for approaching this source material are included within the text, making it an accessible and invaluable book for students and teachers of social and cultural history.

Book excerpt: Montenero Val Cocchiara is usually referred to simply as Montenero, or Mundunur in the local dialect. It is a typical mountain village on the border of Italy's Abruzzo and Molise regions, but Montenero is more than that. Certainly the village and its people retain unique traditions and character traits because of its relative seclusion. At the same time-as fully revealed in this book-its history was tinted by contacts with numerous powerful groups over many centuries. Since Naples was the political and cultural heartbeat of south Italy, it sewed threads that tie Montenero to a heritage common to all living in the sunny south. Anyone with roots in south Italy will certainly benefit from reading this book. However, the author's greater aspiration is that others will equally enjoy the story of Montenero as a metaphor for their own ancestral village or town, regardless of country-or even see the village as a microcosm of the world, where the forces of history and culture forge the character of people.

Book excerpt: "An insightful and often funny depiction of Italian Life" Hannah McIntyre, The Italian Insider Magazine --- In this, the second book in his Italian Trilogy, Paul relays more enthralling real-life stories about Italian village life. Though Lake Como has always had a reputation for exclusivity, it is now one of Italy's most expensive places to live. But alongside the high-fliers are the everyday people, rich, poor and all levels in between. In the sequel to the successful 'An Italian Home - Settling by Lake Como, ' expatriate artist Paul Wright, a resident of northern Italy for over 28 years pulls no punches to give us his take on his Italian neighbours, workmates and clients. From time to time, he touches base with a group of men, retired from the restaurant trade, who spend their days seated around the fountain in the piazza of his home village of Argegno, making their own running commentary on the world as it passes by. Paul also travels outside the village boundaries too, to the surrounding Italian countryside, the Italian Riviera and Switzerland to work for all manner of clients, ranging from the reputable to the decidedly risky. After selling some of his trademark watercolours to an American couple, he visits the USA to paint a mural in their home in Vermont and enjoys a break in New York City, where he explores the art world
