| | Apulia |
| | Even the dialect literature of Apulia has been, until the aftermath of the Second World War, imitative and repetitive. | | | The fact is, that unlike other parts of Apulia, this land has granted dialect a dignity equal to Italian, having always been the medium of communication of the cultured class and the preferred choice in the Academies and cultural gatherings. | | | One can maintain that Apulia has also achieved these goals, freeing dialect from its provincial ghettos in order to place it in open confrontation with other idioms, from those belonging to sub-regional cultures to those without communication boundaries. |
