On the occasion of the \u201c22nd Week of the Italian Language in the World\u201d, the Embassy of Italy, together with the Italian Cultural institute of Washington is pleased to announce a Contest for students of the Italian language in the United States. Each year, the Week has a different underlying theme for a vast cultural program to advance the promotion of the Italian language.<\/p>\n

This year, the theme is \u201cL\u2019italiano e i giovani. Come scusa? Non ti followo\u201d (\u201cItalian and Youth. Excuse me? I don\u2019t follow you\u201d). Considering the focus not only on the youth but also on how language interacts with digital tools, the contest concentrates on erasure poetry, also known as black-out poetry that allows a writer to change an existing text by erasing, blacking out, or obscuring a portion of the original material, creating a new work from what remains. Students individually or in group are asked to compose a poem in Italian on a topic of their choice, using the technique of erasure poetry.<\/p>\n

More information on the contest and on how to submit the productions can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The award Ceremony will take place in presence at the Embassy of Italy in Washington and online on October 19th, 2022.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On the occasion of the \u201c22nd Week of the Italian Language in the World\u201d, the Embassy of Italy, together with the Italian Cultural institute of Washington is pleased to announce a Contest for students of the Italian language in the United States.
