Events have been interpreted in contrasting ways, and the facts themselves often contested. Moreover, with so little agreement over what happened, and why it happened, it has been extremely difficult to create any consensus around memory. These divisions can be identified throughout Italian history, but take on particular importance when linked to the great traumatic and life-changing events of the twentieth century - war, terrorism, disaster, fascism. They also manifest themselves in cultural fields such as sport and everyday life. This work delves into Italy's past, looking at stories of divided memory over various periods in the twentieth century, and points the way toward a fresh understanding of Italian history."--BOOK JACKET. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 651 0 Italy |xHistory |y1914-1945. 651 0 Italy |xHistory |y1945- 650 0 World War, 1914-1918 |xSocial aspects |zItaly. 650 0 World War, 1939-1945 |xSocial aspects |zItaly. 650 0 Memory |xSocial aspects |zItaly. 650 0 Collective memory |zItaly. 650 0 Monuments |zItaly. 650 0 War memorials |zItaly. 650 0 Political culture |zItaly. 651 0 Italy |xSocial conditions. 830 0 Italian and Italian American studies (Palgrave Macmillan (Firm)) 856 42 |3Contributor biographical information |uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0913/2009023745-b.html 856 42 |3Publisher description |uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0913/2009023745-d.html 856 42 |3Table of contents only |uhttp://www.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0913/2009023745-t.html 856 41 |3Electronic version |zHosted by ProQuest |uhttps://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/ushmm/detail.action?docID=599349 852 0 |bstacks |hDG568 |i.F66 2009 852 |bebook
