Nuova York: Hidden in Plain Sight
Brought to life by Casa Italiana Zerilli-Marimò, ‘Nuova York: Hidden in Plain Sight’ is on a mission to uncover and showcase the tangible traces of Italian presence in New York City, which boasts the largest Italian-American population in North America and ranks as the third-largest Italian population outside of Italy itself. Each episode of this series shines a spotlight on something special – be it a monument, a church, a store, a building, or even a street, answering those fundamental questions: when was it established, by whom, and why?

Members of the Dante Society recorded conversations with friends and colleagues on their favorite cantos, reflecting on what Dante has to say to us now, in our time. All 100 cantos of the Divine Comedy were published at a rate of two cantos per week over the course of a year, starting in September 2020.
