John Pollard provides an analysis of printed and broadcast propaganda, new documentary material and thematic coverage of major topics such as the transformation of Italian agrarian and urban society and the actions of the Papacy.

Italy's Social Revolution: Charity and Welfare from Liberalism to Fascism

Italy's Social Revolution: Charity and Welfare from Liberalism to Fascism

The study of welfare can illuminate debate about some of the grand themes in modern Italian history - the question of the success or failure of nation-building; the question of the relative strengths and weaknesses of the state; and the question of continuity and discontinuity from liberalism to fascism. It can also deepen understanding of one of the most pressing problems confronting historians of Italian fascism - the question of the actual impact of fascist rule on Italian society. Despite this, surprisingly few scholars have done any work on this important topic. This book aims to contribute to scholarship on the social history of modern Italy by examining welfare thinking and policies from the nineteenth century to the fascist period.

Lega Nord and the Northern Question in Italian Politics

Lega Nord and the Northern Question in Italian Politics

Since the late 1980s, the Lega Nord has broken the mould of Italian politics. Federalist, secessionist, populist, it has succeeded in mobilizing the entrepreneurial class of Northern Italy in a campaign against the Italian state. In 1996, it launched the idea of Panadia, a separate Northern Italian nation. This proved to be a step too far, but the Lega remains a political force to be reckoned with, and has propelled 'the Northern question' on to the national stage.

Very few films during the Fascist period can be labeled as propaganda.

It also examines the connection between cinema of the Fascist period and neorealism - ties that many scholars previously had denied in an attempt to view Fascism as an unfortunate deviation in Italian history.

The Italian

The Italian

From the first moment Vincentio di Vivaldi, a young nobleman, sets eyes on the veiled figure of Ellena, he is captivated by her enigmatic beauty and grace. But his haughty and manipulative mother is against the match and enlists the help of her confessor to come between them. Schedoni, previously a leading figure of the Inquisition, is a demonic, scheming monk with no qualms about the task, whether it entails abduction, torture - or even murder. The Italian secured Ann Radcliffe's position as the leading writer of Gothic romance of the age, for its atmosphere of supernatural and nightmarish horrors, combined with her evocation of sublime landscapes and chilling narrative.
