Download or read book A Civil War written by Claudio Pavone and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2014-10-07 with total page 769 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Civil War is a history of the wartime Italian Resistance, recounted by a historian who, as a young man, took part in the struggle against Mussolini’s fascist Republic. Since its publication in Italy, Claudio Pavone’s masterwork has become indispensable to anyone seeking to understand this period and its continuing importance for the nation’s identity. Pavone casts a sober eye on his protagonists’ ethical and ideological motivations. He uncovers a multilayered conflict, in which class antagonisms, patriotism and political ideals all played a part. A clear understanding of this complexity allows him to explain many details of the post-war transition, as well as the legacy of the Resistance for modern Italy. In addition to being a monumental work of scholarship, A Civil War is a folk history, capturing events, personalities and attitudes that were on the verge of slipping entirely out of recollection to the detriment of Italy’s understanding of itself and its past.

The extracts are from a wide variety of different genres, including novels, memoirs, short stories, historical works and songs. Taking into account the significant changes in approach to, and interpretations of, the resistance movement, that have emerged since the early 1990s, Italian resistance writing includes works by, among others, Claudio Pauone, Italo Calvino, Gian Enrico Rusconi, Renata Vigano and Pietro Scoppola. Cooke places each work in context and stresses the contemporary significance of the Italian resistance. This is a vibrant, multifaceted volume which sheds light on the past while illuminating the present in Italian history, cultural studies and current affairs.

Book Synopsis The Legacy of the Italian Resistance by : Philip Cooke
Download or read book The Legacy of the Italian Resistance written by Philip Cooke and published by Springer. This book was released on 2011-05-09 with total page 550 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book adds to this growing body of scholarship on the Italian Resistance by analysing, for the first time, how the 'three wars' are represented over the broad spectrum of Resistance culture from 1945 to the present day. Furthermore, it makes this contribution to scholarship by bridging the gap between historical and cultural analysis. Whereas historians frequently use literary texts in their writings, they are often flawed by an insufficiently nuanced understanding of what a literary text is. Likewise, literary critics who have discussed writers such as Calvino and Vittorini, or films such Paisà and La notte di San Lorenzo, only refer in passing to the historical context in which these works were produced. By fusing historical and cultural analysis, author Philip Cooke makes a unique contribution to our understanding of a key period of Italian history and culture.

Download or read book Tulipano written by Walter de Hoog and published by Createspace Independent Pub. This book was released on 2012 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 20 year old Dutchman joins the Italian Resistance to the Nazi occupation of Northern Italy. As a courier for the underground headquarters of the partisan movement he is captured by the Gestapo who find on him military intelligence documents for transmission to Allied headquarters in Southern Italy. He is deported to the notorious Nazi extermination camp of Mauthausen in Austria. In a daring nighttime escape from the cattle train speeding through icy snowbound mountains he goes on to survive by the skin of his teeth in heart stopping encounters with enemy soldiers and policemen. At war's end the leader of the Resistance becomes the first prime minister of liberated Italy and appoints him to his staff. The young Dutchman gets an inside view of the workings of government and politics as Italy faces overwhelming problems of reconstruction. The events in Walter's odyssey are highlighted by telling observations and reflections on the broader picture of what is happening in that final phase of the war. Along with the personal emotions and the constant tension and fear he feels as he faces one danger after another there are revealing observations about the dramatic impact the war has on the average people he meets, their fears, suspicions and understandable attitudes of self-protection as he seeks their help in this incredible journey of survival. Named to Kirkus Reviews' Best of 2012, noting: "While large scale accounts of WWII will provide a more comprehensive overview of its conflicts, De Hoog's firsthand version teems with humanity not often found in such surveys. It's written with the same measures of ethical commitment and intelligence that seem to have helped him outpace his German persecutors. A lush, unsparing narrative that honors history ans emotion."
Book Synopsis Marisa's Courage by : Margherita Fray
Download or read book Marisa's Courage written by Margherita Fray and published by . This book was released on 2014-03 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a story by and about one of the last survivors of the Italian Resistance that helped the Allies advance up the Italian peninsula and push the Germans out of Italy during World War II. Her name is Margherita Bertola Fray. As a young girl she was raised in a determinedly anti-Fascist family who suffered some deprivations because of this opposition. In her teen years she and her family, as with all Italians, suffered and were witness to the horrors of bombings, executions, and other brutalities perpetrated by home-grown and foreign aggressors. She became a member of the Resistenza as a partisan, belonging to a group called the Garibaldi Brigade around her home city of Turin and participated in dangerous missions to support the fighters in the underground for several years. More than once, she put herself in harm s way for the good of others and for her country. Fortunately, she lived to tell about her experiences even though she is still emotionally distraught over memories of this horrific time. In 1946 she came to America as a War Bride, marrying a man she had briefly met only a year earlier. He promised to return to Italy to marry her, which he did. Her early years as a young woman and mother in a foreign land, married to a deeply-flawed man she really didn t know at all, were unhappy and presented her with many challenges that might have subdued a lesser person. Thanks in part to the strengths from her upbringing and experiences in Italy, she endured and is contented living in Scottsdale, Arizona except for the fact that her story had remained untold. ------------------------------- Born during WWII into a German family in New York City, Bill Diekmann grew up surrounded by immigrant families from all across Europe. His early interest in commercial aviation and his Aeronautical Engineering degree permitted him to travel around the world in that industry. While his writings were mostly technical reports and business contracts, he enjoyed using the written word to help create understanding and consensus. In retirement, writing tugged at him even more. Thus meeting Margherita Bertola Fray and learning of her desire to have the story of her unique experiences in the Italian Resistance put into print presented an opportunity to learn even more about recent European history and exercise his passion for writing. Bill lives in Phoenix, Arizona with his wife Janine. Their daughter Kristen has a Marriage and Family Therapy practice in Manchester, Connecticut and her sister Adrienne is a musical theater maven in New York City."

Book Synopsis Never Give in by : Alastair Davidson
Download or read book Never Give in written by Alastair Davidson and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For a half century, the experience of Resistance has formed a central reference point within the world of Italian politics and culture. The essays that make up Never Give In offer a critical assessment both of that legacy, and some of the major political forces that have laid claim to it. At the same time, the authors of these essays argue that the Resistance continues as more than simply nostalgia. In each of their historiographical revisions, they also show - even in the much more complicated and less heroic accounts of what happened - a continuing ethic, a way of being and acting politically that is of abiding relevance.

Book Synopsis The Bicycle Runner by : G. Franco Romagnoli
Download or read book The Bicycle Runner written by G. Franco Romagnoli and published by Macmillan. This book was released on 2009-08-18 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like all boys growing up in Rome during the 1930s and 1940s, the author was expected to join the Balilla—Italy's fascist Youth Organization. With political divisions running deep in the families within his palazzo, he and his motley group of friends were recruited into the underground Resistance. Racing around Rome on bicycles, they smuggled messages and weapons for the partisans. Later, the author fled to the Italian countryside and narrowly avoided German mop-up operations—despite being sold out by his most trusted of friends. But this is much more than a war story. Lyrical in language, rich in sentimentality, and possessing the magic of a classic Fellini film, Romagnoli's memoir is a charmingly told tale of the search for manhood and the bonds of family and friendship.
