“…The working class image of Rome began to hold a place in the Romanità narratives, partly thanks to its representation in well acclaimed Italian film scenes, such as the neorealist films and later films with strong neorealist influences. Films featuring working class and shanty neighbourhoods in Rome were supposed to unfold a different image other than the glorious, romantic Italian capital, but they unwittingly eternalised the image of the peripheral, marginalised and povertyridden areas of the "eternal city" (Bass 1997;Khrebtan-Hörhager and Burgchardt 2016;Shiel 2008). This image resonates particularly well in formerly working class neighbourhoods, like Testaccio (Ancona et al 2012;Ranaldi 2012).…”

Community participation is increasingly advocated as a promising approach to cultural heritage management. One of the main justifications for doing so is to challenge the authorized heritage discourse and further multivocality. However, regarding the approach of “community participation”, many issues are yet to be addressed. This project tackles one of the main issues faced by participatory heritage initiatives. That is, with the presence of diverse voices about heritage in a so-called community, how does the community deal with the multivocal reality? This project explores this question by drawing on various examples from three Italian communities - Mesagne and Latiano from the southern Italian region of Apulia, and the neighbourhood of Testaccio in the historic centre of Rome.

In this essay, we analyze how the temporary photographic exhibits of Anna Magnani and Sophia Loren served as artifacts of creating, circulating, and negotiating italianità: the essence of Italian culture and national identity. The photography exhibits in Rome and Sorrento anchor our study, but in order to understand more fully how they invite or reinforce cultural meaning, we evaluated these works in their larger architectural, regional, and urban contexts. We conclude that the exhibits communicate contrasting versions of italianità in order to subvert patriarchic tendencies in society, withstand globalization, challenge pan-European transnationalism, and create a strong sense of shared, yet diverse, identity by Italians, as well as manifest national pride to the visitors of the Belpaese.
