Maria Mazziotti Gillan offers you a unique opportunity to write in Italy. Maria will be teaching for the first week of a two-week seminar in the Calabria-Lucania region of Italy from May 15-29, 2019.
The University of Calabria’s Italian Diaspora Studies Seminar is pleased to launch a new residential program dedicated to the topic of Cultural Heritage and Memory. Whether you are of Italian origin or not, this program offers you an incomparable opportunity to live a unique experience than will enhance your life, enrich your culture and stimulate your creativity.
Have you ever fancied wanting to write your history, or the history of your family, sifting through childhood memories, digging into your roots and past lives of people close to you?
Have you ever started a writing project of any type, but could not complete?
Have ever wanted to explore hidden parts of South Italy and its rich culture, and to learn more about the Italian diaspora?
With the Patronage of the Canadian Embassy of Rome, and with the expected renewal of the Patronage of the US Consulate Naples, this seminar will be held in the northern part of Calabria and in Lucania, with a day-trip in Matera, the European Capital of Culture 2019, from May 15th to May 29th, 2019.
It is a two-week program. The first week with maria is held in Morano Calabro (CS), in the National Park of Mount Pollino. The second week will be in Albidona (CS), on the Ionian Coast of Calabria, at the border with Lucania, with several planned field trips in the surrounding areas.
