Welcome to the Italian eCenter

The Italian eCenter is an innovative project initiated by Professor
Laurie Shepard at Boston College.

The objective of the site is to provide a portal for contemporary Italian
cinema, literature, music, art, media, and other cultural events,
as well as educational and employment opportunities.

We envision our public to include Italiophiles of every kind, students, professors and
non specialists alike, opera lovers, film enthusiasts, history buffs and tourists.

On the site we include local and national events and publications that pertain to Italian culture, as well as events in Italy of interest to tourists, scholars and local residents.

We have chosen English as a principal language for the site, and many links are in Italian.
