About the Journal

Italian Americana is a double-blind peer-reviewed journal dedicated to exploring the Italian emigrant/immigrant experience. Since its founding in 1974 the journal’s mission has remained consistent—to publish scholarly and creative works that explore the topic of Italian Americanness from a wide variety of perspectives. Italian Americana today maintains its long tradition of publishing innovative articles by historians, social scientists, literary critics, and visual artists, among others, as well as presenting original works of fiction, poetry, and memoir.
