Faculty Spotlight: Maddalena Marinari

Maddalena Marinari (History) co-edited with Kevin Kenny (New York University), a collection of essays titled Rituals of Migration: Italians and Irish on the Move. It offers snapshots of Italian and Irish migrants on the move from the mid-19th to mid-20th centuries. The essays examine the moments, actions, sentiments, and material objects in the process of migration—at the point of departure, in transit, and in the process of return. She also published a special journal issue in the Journal of American Ethnic History, the leading journal for immigration historians, which was co-edited with Hardeep Dhillon (University of Pennsylvania). It focuses on immigration and citizenship over the 20th century.
