THE BOOK:
The year 2008 marks the 20th Anniversary of The Emma Grollo Memorial

collection of research papers or extracts of these from each of the
Scholarship recipients. It also offers a short autobiography of
each Scholarship recipient, providing an opportunity for them to discuss
how the Scholarship has enabled them to pursue their interest in Italian
Studies, to relate anecdotes from their experience of studying in Italy
and to discuss how their receipt of The Emma Grollo Memorial
Scholarship has influenced their career.
