Summary: "Linguaggio e proverbi marinareschi" by Emanuele Celesia is a linguistic study written in the late 19th century. The work aims to explore the unique language and proverbs associated with maritime culture, particularly among Italian sailors. Celesia seems to focus on how maritime language is not only a means of communication but also a significant cultural element that embodies the identity and experiences of those who navigate the seas. The opening of the book sets the stage for a deep exploration of maritime culture and its language. It introduces the seaside town of Camogli, known for its hardworking sailors, and reflects on significant maritime events, highlighting a vivid incident from April 1855 involving the English vessel "Cresus," which caught fire during a storm. The narrative brings forth the characters of sailors and their heroic acts, particularly focusing on Emilio Schiaffino, a seasoned navigator, who deeply contemplates the need for improvement in the education and language of sailors. The text juxtaposes the struggles of the sailors with the passionate commitment to preserving the dignity and richness of their language, promising a rich exploration of linguistic subtleties and cultural identity that will unfold through the ensuing dialogues.
