Abstract

In this essay, we analyze how the temporary photographic exhibits of Anna Magnani and Sophia Loren served as artifacts of creating, circulating, and negotiating italianità: the essence of Italian culture and national identity. The photography exhibits in Rome and Sorrento anchor our study, but in order to understand more fully how they invite or reinforce cultural meaning, we evaluated these works in their larger architectural, regional, and urban contexts. We conclude that the exhibits communicate contrasting versions of italianità in order to subvert patriarchic tendencies in society, withstand globalization, challenge pan-European transnationalism, and create a strong sense of shared, yet diverse, identity by Italians, as well as manifest national pride to the visitors of the Belpaese.

展出Italianità：Anna Magnani和Sophia Loren饰演Madri della Patria

摘要

在本文中，我们分析了安娜·马格纳尼（Anna Magnani）和索菲亚·罗兰（Sophia Loren）的临时摄影作品如何成为创造，传播和谈判义大利人的产物：义大利文化和民族认同的精髓。罗马和索伦托的摄影作品展为我们的研究奠定了基础，但是为了更全面地了解它们如何激发或增强文化意义，我们在较大的建筑，区域和城市环境中对这些作品进行了评估。我们得出的结论是，展览品传达了不同的意大利语版本，以颠覆社会上的重男轻女的趋势，抵御全球化，挑战泛欧洲的跨国主义，并营造出强烈的意大利人共同但多样的认同感，并表现出对民族的自豪感。比利时人的访客。
