As part of the XXth Week of the Italian Language in the World - dedicated to “Italian between word and image: graffiti, illustrations, comics” - and within the activities dedicated by the Department of Italian Studies at the Language and Translation Center of the Lebanese University to the discovery of Italian comics authors and to the creative comic writing, we carry on the presentation of some video projects carried out by the Master’s students during the 1st academic semester.
We continue our journey into the universe of Italian comics. This week, we dedicate this space to La Pimpa, a little white dog with red dots, the protagonist of a popular comic series for children born from the pen of Altan, It later became a cartoon series in which La Pimpa moves and talks like a child.
Bianca Tahtouh, a 1st year student of the Master in Intercultural Communication - Italian-Lebanese Studies, Language and Translation Center, Lebanese University, talks about it.
