Default Italianità Maltese e Malta

Italianità Maltese e Malta
di Ederico Figallo


Nell’epoca odierna si sta risvegliando un senso di Nazionalismo Maltese che può rafforzare la nazione Maltese. Sorge un problema comunque. Io dichiaro con insistenza che un Nazionalismo con mancanza di una dimensione culturale che rafforzi l’identità nazionale Maltese di dinamica Latina ed Europea, non è affatto Nazionalismo.

Si rischia di associare una posizione sterile e difensiva, passiva oserei dire, di Anti-Immigrazionismo al Nazionalismo, mentre infatti una posizione contro l’Immigrazione dovrebbe essere esclusivamente la punta dell’iceberg e una minima posizione di valore da parte del Nazionalismo.

I punti principali che dovrebbero essere combattuti sono prima di tutto l’orribile complesso di inferiorità nazionale che affligge la nazione Maltese, molto probabilmente dipendente dai bravi ex-Colonialisti Inglesi che sono eccellenti in manipolare e recare danni terribile alle identità popolari e nazionali dei popoli che hanno soggiogato durante la loro storia.

In tale contesto vorrei proporre un estratto del manifesto del Partito Nazionalista del 1947, in quell'epoca ancora protettore della nostra Latinità contro le posizioni Arabizzanti di Colonialisti e i loro collaborazionisti traditori:

“È conoscenza comune che, per combattere le posizioni denazionalizzanti del Governo Imperiale che ci vorrebbe trattare come se fossimo di stirpe Araba o Levantina e quindi vorrebbe sotterrare le caratteristiche della nostra gloriosa civiltà Latina, il Partito Nazionalista deve necessariamente anche difendere la nostra cultura Italiana, ormai vecchia di secoli”

Ecco signori, gli Inglesi sono stati eccezionali a soggiogare la cultura italiana a Malta, e qualunque menzione della italianità culturale a Malta ormai è stata dilaniata e oppressa dai Colonialisti e la storia manipolata da loro. Hanno fatto buon uso della Seconda Guerra Mondiale per far dimenticare a molti Maltesi la loro italianità vera, anzi verissima. Molta gente Maltese di chiare origine italiane quasi, o non, si vergogna di tale patrimonio.

Tal volta si sente gente parlare, senza vergogna, della Arabità di Malta in totale disdegno della identità nazionale Maltese di origine e dinamica Sud-Europea. Questo sembra addirittura accettabile e non motivo di scandalo, ma quando si parla di italianità scatta il finimondo.

Tale idiozie sono state promosse da Colonialisti, collaborazionisti come Lord Gerald Strickland e i loro amanti nel Compact come gli esponenti Socialisti da cui nacque il Malta Labour Party (notare proprio il nome in inglese che regge fino nella nostra epoca d’Indipendenza), arditamente opposti, come giusto che sia, dal Partito Nazionalista capeggiato da Sir Ugo P. Mifsud e il Dottor Enrico Mizzi, partito che in quella epoca era egregio protettore della Latinità e Europeità della nazione Maltese con totale rispetto verso il patrimonio italiano di Malta, stabilitosi da secoli e che ha formato la nazione Maltese in quella che è odiernamente.

Ecco, è tempo che Malta accetti anche il suo vero patrimonio italiano, in gran parte distrutto da vili Colonialisti e traditori. Ovviamente gli ignoranti che non possono mettersi al di sopra della storia manipolata egregiamente per motivi vari, non possono capire tali concetti, ci chiamerebbero idiotamente traditori. Ribatto: “meglio essere un traditore per traditori veri che patriota per patrioti falsi”.

È tempo che il patrimonio italiano di Malta sia proprio riconosciuto non come patrimonio straniero, ma proprio come patrimonio Maltese, in questa Malta Nazione Indipendente, Latina, ed Europea, come dovrebbe essere. Ed è qui che entra il vero Nazionalismo nell'ambito culturale.

Alla fine chiedo: Cosa è il vero patrimonio Maltese, quello Arabo?

Default Re: Italianità Maltese e Malta

A post I made at AveMelita.com:

@argo and everyone else - My honest and frank reflections on the language issue in relation to Italian

I can only agree with argo regarding the fact that language is not a political question, but it is a cultural one. Subsequently I assert con forza that we should not be sterile politicians without a cultural background. Nationalism is not mere Politics, Nationalism engulfs every aspect of National life.

When will we accept our Italian heritage and actually do something to cultivate it? When will we untie the yoke on our Italian heritage imposed by an adverse history? This is slavery and nothing else.

We were part and parcel of the developments in Italy for practically all our history except British Colonialism. Before we had an Italian culture, now we have an Anglo-Americana dump which is even getting Africanised.

I assert vigorously that our Cultural Crisis is because the Maltese have been sradikati, from their past and their Italian heritage in cultural terms. We do not know what is our European Maltese Culture, we defend an Anglo-American culture against its impending Africanisation. Well and good, but that is not Nationalism, that is dealing out a reaction to a terrible phenomenon, but what happens when that phenomenon is won? Nationalism is not simply a reaction, it is assertiveness, especially in Cultural terms.

Given the vast preponderence of Italian surnames in Malta, which upon observing a Telephone Directory are actually the majority as single surnames, as Maltese as anything else, I doubt whether there is any Maltese that can claim absolutely no Italian heritage in his family. I have it, and I assure you that I am no exception in Malta. In my family there was never any talks of Italian heritage, we are as Maltese as anyone else, but it is part of us and my inquisitive nature regarding tutto e tutti led me to understand, that having Italian heritage is actually part and parcel of being Maltese.

There is actually no Malta without its very real Italian heritage - A Cultural rebirth in Malta goes hand in hand with rediscovering that heritage, as well.

It is an Ethno-Cultural question, and yes, Italian should be compulsory teaching at schools, it is not restricting anyone and that notion is ridiculous. It is actually opening people to part of Malta's heritage which the English tried to destroy and were part successful given the close-mindedness of many in accepting the truth, same English that some arduous bacia culi admire unneedly and often in said admiration combine a hate for anything Italian even if it is part and parcel of Malta.

The preponderence of Italian in international areas is irrelevant to a Nationalist. With such reasoning we might as well prefer Chinese and Arabic to Italian, and to hell goes our heritage.

This is neglecting our National characteristics and the distortions that the English have done on the Maltese nation.

Malta has no real second language if it is English, that is an imposition and a slavery that most accept complacently. Such people, accepting the status quo, are none other but slaves to Colonialism and an adverse History. Their look to the future is an acceptance of cultural slavery!

I will once again quote the past, which some would want to neglect and subsequently call themselves Patriots and even Nationalists. I would rather be true to myself, my ideals, and Malta's heritage and state positions from the past which were truly Nationalist rather than invent some half-baked "Nationalism" based on an Anti-Immigration position and with no cultural characteristics.

The very sound position of the Partito Nazionalista taken during its very true and vital Nationalist period is my own:

"It is common knowledge that, in order to combat the denationalizing policy of the Imperial Government which would have us dealt with as if we were of Arabic or Levantine descent and would therefore do away with all the characteristics of our glorious Latin civilization, the Nationalist Party must necessarily defend also our Italian culture, now hundreds of years old; nevertheless, the Party does not intend nor does it mean in any way to prejudice the English language the need whereof it has always acknowledged, and much less does it want to prejudice Maltese which is on the people's lips thereby being one of our characteristics which we must uphold and cultivate within the sphere of our national European individuality in the hope that, we will ultimately succeed, even if gradually, in finding a just and final solution to the language issue"

Well ladies and gentlemen, the status quo in languages in Malta is "no just and final solution to the language issue". If you are truly Nationalists, as I am sure to be, do stand up for your own Culture and Heritage and don't be complacent to an adverse history. There is no real Maltese Nationalism without accepting our very real and vital Italian heritage as Maltese, if not Ethnic Heritage as well. The supposed "Nationalistic" alternative is based on an Anti-Immigration position with no real cultural background.

This is the truth in Nationalism, there is no escaping it. Mi dichiaro Nazionalista al 100%.

La nostra vera seconda lingua nazionale è l'italiano, purtroppo gli ignoranti vogliono rimanere nell'ignoranza, oqgħod hemm Ġaħan! (I love saying that, Buon Natale )

Look at us, we use English to communicate amongst fellow Maltese, if this is not a nation slave to an imposed history, no one is.
