It has also been the case, from the late 1960s, that with the improvement of the West-European economy and the creation of the Common Market, the source was already running out and that the Italian influence had almost certainly reached its alltime peak. Referring particularly to the post World War II influx Professor Borrie more than a decade ago asked the following questions, Where have these people settled, what occupations have they followed, how have they brought their families together, ......have Italians integrated to any degree with Australians, do Australians want or expect them to do so -?

I have worked at the wall paintings in the disused chapel of the Annunciation at Hal Millieri and in the church of Santa Marija ta' Bir Miftuh, and in the crypt of the Abbatija Tad Dejr and in the cave church of St. Agatha at Rabat. But it is likely that further fragments survive hidden beneath the whitewash or the yellow plaster of some of the older chapels. While although I have examined nearly three hundred panels only seventeen of them can be proved to have been in Malta by 1530.

Superata l'opposizione tematica tra la 'Divina Commedia' e la 'commedia umana' (De Sanctis), abbandonato il compromesso schematico di un Boccaccio ultimo rappresentante del Medioevo, nelle opere minori, primo "dell'Umanesimo nel Decameron (Russo), la critica di oggi preferisce portare le esercitazioni dialettiche suI campo stilistico.
