This is the personality of a region. The reader will never again move eastwards from Bologna without the sensation of crossing a frontier. Romagnol: Language and Literature This book aims to put Romagnol squarely on the literary map of Europe, and in so doing to suggest that the secret backwaters of dialect contain treasures which deserve to be more widely known. Everyone has heard of Mistral: but who outside Romagna knows the name of Aldo Spallici? Yet his poetry and example entitle him to be called the Mistral of Romagna. He and such poets as Vincenzo Strocchi, Enzo Guerra, and Cino Pedrelli have made of Romagnol a dialect which the reader of poetry will quickly appreciate. After all, it was also the mother-tongue of Pascoli. Not only poets, however, will find Romagnol of interest. The linguist will find a Grammar and the philologist an Etymology. There is something for the student of folklore: and a map will enable the tourist to find the places that have excited his curiosity. This is the personality of a region. The reader will never again move eastwards from Bologna without the sensation of crossing a frontier. D.B. Gregor was a professional teacher of Classics and Romance languages, whose wife was from Romagna. He is also the author of "Friulan: Language and Literature" (9780902675391) and "Romontsch: Language and Literature (9780900891397)."
