4.9/5 (33236 ratings)

Description:This book was conceived as a laboratory on microhistory, an attempt to illustrate its main processes and advantages. Through the microhistorical approach the reader is off on an adventurous journey to discover an individual person's point of view: that of maestro Luigi Prisco, emigrated in USA from the South of Italy in 1902. Luigi Prisco was a provincial musician and composer, born in 1857 and lived Avellino, in Campania. In May 1902, unexpectedly, Prisco joined millions of people in emigrating from Southern Italy and the rest of the country to the United States, one more droplet in the immense river of Italian Migration.Luigi Prisco's Personal correspondence with his mentor and friend Senator Donato Di Marzo (1840-1911) provides us with a precious insight into the aspirations and desires of a man who, through his actions, brought radical change to his life. Maestro Prisco's letters are an interesting and insightful form of self-narration, which can only be fully grasped through a microhistorical approach. The study of these letters is particularly valuable in highlighting the relationship between society and the intimate life of an individual, but also in underlining the active role that Prisco an individual was able to play.This volume will be of great use to upper-level graduates, postgraduates and experienced scholars interested in microhistory, history of migrations, history of Self, and in the develop of theoretical approaches and methodologies when using letters as sources in inter-disciplinary historical research.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
