{ "pk": 40605, "title": "Libera nos a malo:Violence and Hope, Image and Word in Rossellini's \nRoma città aperta", "subtitle": null, "abstract": "By analyzing the final sequence of \nRoma città aperta\n (1945), within the context of the film as a whole, this article seeks to demonstrate that individual and national hope, in line with historic and orthodox Christian eschatology, can be drawn from Rosselini’s correlation of the \nwords\n of the liturgical elements delivered in Latin with the \nvisual\n images of Don Pietro’s execution. \nThe article begins firstly with an overview of the correlation between visual image and spoken word in the film as a whole. It then examines Don Pietro’s death within the context of the other deaths in \nRoma città aperta. \nThirdly it seeks to demonstrate that, although the work of agnostics, Rossellini and Amidei have deliberately and skillfully deployed Christian doctrine to craft a film that would have seemed at once realistic and hopeful to its original Italian audience. The final section of the article shows this craftsmanship in action through a close reading of the liturgical lexicon and visual images in Don Pietro’s execution, the final four minutes of the film.", "language": "en", "license": { "name": "Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0", "short_name": "CC BY-NC 4.0", "text": "Attribution — You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made.
