This week on The Italian Radio Hour: "Crossings": Autobiographical Writing for people of Italian origin with Prof. Rita Cavigioli. Are you an American with Italian origins who has spent significant time in Italy, not only for tourism, but might have family, friends in Italy or have worked or studied in Italy? Have you always wanted to capture in writing your life, their lives, the what ifs, the nostalgia, the opportunities, the memories, the connections, the stories but not necessarily know where to start? In this week's episode, we speak with Rita Cavigioli, Professor Emerita of Italian Studies (University of Missouri-Columbia) about the upcoming workshop on Autobiographical Writing for people of Italian origin that will be held in partnership with Istituto Mondo Italiano from April 4th until May 16th. During this 7-session course participants will capture, reflect, compare, and support one another in this beautiful and intimate writing experience. The workshop will span over seven three-hour sessions. Attendees can participate either online on in person (if in the Pittsburgh area, at Istituto Mondo Italiano). Prof. Cavigioli will connect from her hometown of Turin. Registration is currently open. Only 9 seats available! Visit www.istitutomondoitaliano.org for more information.
