Research and Publications
At the Italian Historical Society of South Australia Inc., we are committed to conducting in-depth research and producing publications that illuminate the rich history and cultural contributions of the Italian community in South Australia. Our research and publications aim to preserve, share, and promote the stories, traditions, and experiences that have shaped the Italian-Australian identity.
Research Initiatives
Our Society undertakes a variety of research projects focused on documenting the experiences of Italian migrants, their descendants, and their impact on local society. From oral history interviews to archival exploration, our research contributes to a greater understanding of the historical connections between Italy and South Australia.
Publications
Our publications are a vital part of our mission, offering new perspectives on the Italian diaspora's impact on Australian life. We produce books, articles, exhibition catalogues, and academic papers that reflect our ongoing research efforts. Some of our notable publications include:
-
Whole of Life Stories
-
La Partenza: Voyage to a new beginning
-
Radio Paesani: The Beginning of Community Radio in South Australia
These works are available for purchase or can be accessed through our library and online resources.

We encourage community members, scholars, and institutions to collaborate with us on research projects and publications. If you have a story, document, or artifact related to the Italian community in South Australia, we invite you to share it with us. Your contributions help us preserve and celebrate the diverse narratives that form our collective heritage.
