Join us for an enlightening lecture on “Words of Italy: Exploring Languge as a Cultural Symbol” by Prof. Esterina Nervina, Assistant Professor at City University of Hong Kong, as part of the celebrations for the 25th edition of the Week of the Italian Language in the World!
The lecture will focus on the significance of the Italian language as a means of expressing culture and identity beyond geographical boundaries and its global spread. It will be followed by a Q&A session and a small refreshment.
Whether you’re a linguist, an Italian culture enthusiast, or simply curious about the impact of language on identity, this lecture promises to inspire and inform. Don’t miss this opportunity to celebrate the vibrant legacy of the Italian language and its role in uniting people from all walks of life.
The event is organized by Dante Alighieri Society Hong Kong in collaboration with Alumni Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore and supported by the Italian Cultural Institute in Hong Kong.
