A lecture and workshop for language teachers of all levels

Writing like Breathing is a homage
to Dacia Maraini, celebrating a writing
career that has spanned over half a century.
It is a unique anthology comprising
some of her most important works, the
majority of which have never been translated
into English. The collection emphasizes
Maraini's long relationship with
the Unites States and Japan, and it is
enriched by an unpublished short story
(A Christmas in the Snow Globe), as well
as by interviews, and by talks given by
the author at American universities.
This distinctive volume truly embraces
academic collaboration, as it is the product
of scholars from numerous countries,
including Canada, Italy, the United
Kingdom and the United States.
The anthology will be a welcome and
enjoyable addition for students and
researchers of Dacia Maraini, her work,
Italian culture, and the standing of women
in the world.

The Accademia Italiana della Cucina was born - naturally at the dinner table, as is often the case with important things - when a group of friends, united at dinner on the 29th of July of 1953, heard and agreed with the idea which Orio Vergani had long been nurturing: that of founding an academy with the task of safeguarding, together with the traditions of Italian cuisine, the culture of the civilisation of the table, lively and active expression of the entire Nation.
