This is the first essay devoted to the oral-history memoir entitled Rosa, The Life of an Italian Immigrant which is a semi-fictionalized account of a woman's life in Northern Italy and then in Chicago during the late 19th century. I offer several possible approaches to this text and argue that it deserves to be rediscovered both by historians of immigration and by scholars of women’s studies. Research for this essay was done at the Center for Immigration Studies at the University of Minnesota.

Abstract
This is the first essay devoted to the oral-history memoir entitled Rosa, The Life of an Italian Immigrant which is a semi-fictionalized account of a woman's life in Northern Italy and then in Chicago during the late 19th century. I offer several possible approaches to this text and argue that it deserves to be rediscovered both by historians of immigration and by scholars of women’s studies.
