This English version of the History of Supino, from the original
book in Italian Supino e S. Cataldo by Monsignor Fausto Schietroma, is dedicated
to the Supinesi who make their home in the English speaking countries of the globe.
Its publication is meant to fill a vacuum for those who, lacking fluency in Italian,
are denied access to a full account of Supino, this small “paese” in
the province of Frosinone known as “Ciociaria”.
Its main objective
is to captivate the young generation of Supinesi abroad who are eager to learn
about the origin and the birthplace of their ancestors. As it happened, most emigrants
from Italy before and after the second World War, had limited education and conversed
mainly in their dialect; they could hardly teach Italian to their children, much
less explain to them the history of their place of origin, had they known it.
Indeed, even today, most of us of the older generation know
little about the history of Supino. Each of the over eight thousands towns and
cities in Italy, has its own particular and complex long history. Therefore, lack
of full knowledge of the past of one’s birthplace should not be considered
as an unforgivable sin. In supporting this new literary initiative,
the Supino Social & Cultural Club of Toronto wishes to express the appreciation
and gratitude of every member of the organization to Ernesto Carbonelli, the director
for cultural activities, for a job well done. Without his endless efforts, knowledge
and determination this work would not have been possible. It
is now hoped that those to whom this publication is dedicated will appreciate
its content and benefit from it. As Dante said, we are to consider our “seed”
for we were made to “pursue virtue and knowledge”. CDA

IL
Gran Carnevale dei Soprannomi
This
book recounts the time of a carnival festival where paesani dressed according
to their nicknames.
Written in Italian with many quotes in dialect, the book
is set in prewar Supino, and contains a list of over 1000 nicknames, with many
sketches giving a hilarious version in life of times gone by.
It surely gets
a lot of chuckles...and actually is very funny.
Ideal for older people that
remember some dialect and the younger one that would like to know of all those
nicknames their families still use, from time-to-time.
It is also impressive
in your library or on your coffee table!
The hardbound book is available with
the nickname of the family hand written inside, (this must be requested).
Some details of the pages are available on the "Photo Gallery/Curiosities".

La
Rava allu Frisco
A book of poetry
written in dialect and commentated by Prof. Cesare Bianchi.

The book is illustrated, for those that know some supinese vernacular, is printed
in large characters for easy reading, and its overtones are comical to the point
of loud laughter.
The author will sign and write a dedication, (please specify). $CDA
25.00 plus shipping and handling.
