Southern Italy or Mezzogiorno is the traditional term for the southern regions of Italy and it is a charming experience to visit the region for a vacation. Before visiting southern Italy, information about southern Italy would prove to be handy. Visit naplesldm.com for details.
2. Naples: Life, Death, and Miracles is a miscellany of entries written
from October 2002 through the present. In a previous version on the
internet, it was called the Around Naples Encyclopedia. It is purposely
an idiosyncratic presentation of my personal observations on the
general culture of Naples—history, art, archaeology, music, traffic,
geology, literature, the evil eye, pizza and anything else that struck
and still strikes my fancy. I have included a number of items about
southern Italy, in general, beyond the immediate area of Naples.
There is also an additional section on the island of Sardinia. Besides
the alphabetical index, there is a Portal Index with entries grouped
into general subject areas.
