Gli Arbëreshë di Sicilia. Identità storica e pratiche musicali paraliturgiche
2016
Nell’ambito della tradizione musicale degli Albanesi di Sicilia, oltre ai canti liturgici bizantini (settore di studi su cui l’autore ha dedicato negli ultimi decenni numerose ricerche e numerose pubblicazioni), anche i repertori musicali devozionali e paraliturgici costituiscono un patrimonio ampio e di rilevante interesse. Nei paesi dell’Eparchia di Piana degli Albanesi, in corrispondenza delle varie ricorrenze dell’anno, si svolgono infatti innumerevoli celebrazioni devozionali e paraliturgiche (novene, rosari, tridui, “mesi”), in cui segni della tradizione orientale si intrecciano a pratiche di origine occidentale, testi in arbëresh o in dialetto siciliano si avvicendano a componimenti …

Aspetti e momenti della formazione giovanile di Luigi Pirandello e di Giuseppe Schirò
2020
The newly retrieved correspondence between Pirandello and Schirò helps us reconstruct the relationship between the two young writers, both protagonists of a time rich in events. Of no less importance were their passionate love stories with two young women by the same name: Lina Pirandello.

The background was that of the Palermo of the liberty style at the end of the 19th century while the cultural context was dominated by the great and renowned Sicilian figures of the time. In the second part of the essay, the author considers the literary activity shared by the two young men. As to the early …

2004
Father Bartolomeo Di Salvo and his transcription of the Byzantine chants among the Albanians in Sicily
2006
The Byzantine chant is a fundamental element of the cultural identity of the Albanians of Sicily (the Arbëresh). The origin of this musical tradition dates back to the period after the fall of Constantinople (1453), when many exodus of Albanian and Greek populations occurred from Albania and Morea towards Sicily and other southern Italian regions. Since that time the Arbëresh Byzantine chant has been handed down only orally. In the Eparchy of the Arbëresh of Sicily this ancient and traditional musical repertoire is well preserved and accompanies the Liturgies and the Offices (Matins, Vespers, Hours) of the whole liturgical year. In the years 1950-1960 Father Bartolomeo Di Salvo, monk of the…
