Curious Minds // The Hidden Gems of Italy
You know Roma. You know Milano. But what about the Italian cities beyond the tourist guides? Join Italian Cultural Studies professor and Hot Docs favourite Dr. Franco Gallippi for a colourful journey across the great regional cities of his native land. Experience the rich history, stunning art and architecture, and mouthwatering food of Italy’s most beautiful regions, while discovering cities and towns that are filled with hidden gems. As Franco leads us on a quest to discover the many facets of Italian culture through its most celebrated citizens, landmarks, and historical centres, we’ll experience La Bella Italia as we’ve never seen it before.
This course is led by Dr. Franco Gallippi, who completed his PhD in Italian Studies at the University of Toronto in 2007. He was Assistant Professor of Italian at McMaster University in Hamilton, where he taught Italian language, literature, and cinema, and is presently teaching at the Italian Cultural Institute in Toronto. He publishes his work on Italian literature and cinema in academic journals in Italy, Canada, and the United States.
