Garibaldi
Giuseppe Garibaldi, the Italian revolutionary leader and popular hero, was among the best-known figures of the nineteenth century. This book seeks to examine his life and the making of his cult, to assess its impact, and understand its surprising success. For thirty years Garibaldi was involved in every combative event in Italy. His greatest moment came in 1860, when he defended a revolution in Sicily and provoked the collapse of the Bourbon monarchy, the overthrow of papal power in central Italy, and the creation of the Italian nation state. It made him a global icon, representing strength, bravery, manliness, saintliness, and a spirit of adventure. Handsome, flamboyant, and sexually attrac...
Revolutionary Domesticity in the Italian Risorgimento
"This book examines how a group of transnational British-Italian women affiliated with the exiled patriots of the Italian Left repurposed traditionally feminine activities, such as fundraising, gift-giving, maternity, and memory collection, to make a substantial contribution to Italian Unification and state-building. Through their actions, Mary Chambers, Sara Nathan, Giorgina Saffi, Julia Salis Schwabe, and Jessie White Mario transcended the boundaries of acceptable behavior for middle-class women and participated in the broader female emancipation movement. By drawing attention to their activities, this book reveals how nineteenth-century female activists achieved their most revolutionary goals by using conservative, domestic, or anti-Catholic language. Adding to the growing understanding of the Italian Risorgimento as a transnational phenomenon, it also shows how non-Catholic and non-Italian women participated in the creation and development of the Italian state. Finally, the book argues for the continuing importance of religion in both politics and philanthropy throughout the nineteenth century."

War & Art
War and Art: The Preservation of Italian Treasures is the result of a joint effort by the Embassy of Italy in Washington, D.C., the Museo Centrale del Risorgimento in Rome, the National World War I Museum in Kansas City, and the Woodrow Wilson House in Washington, D.C.. All joined forces to ensure that the 100th anniversary of the start of the Great War is not forgotten.

Japanstudien. Band 14/2002
Das vorliegende Jahrbuch widmet sich dem Schwerpunktthema "Japan als Fallbeispiel in den Wissenschaften", mit dem am DIJ vor einigen Jahren eine neue Arbeitsphase eingeleitet wurde. Es sollte in besonderer Weise den Ort des DIJ auf dem Schnittpunkt zwischen area studies und den systematischen Wissenschaften beleuchten und zur Beantwortung der Frage beitragen, worin der spezifische Erkenntniswert der japanbezogenen Forschung für die Wissenschaft im allgemeinen liegen könnte.
Dizionario di politica a cura del Partito Nazionale Fascista - Antologia, Volume Unico.
Pubblicato a cura del Partito Nazionale Fascista nel 1940, il "Dizionario di politica" rappresenta l'opera della "piena maturit dottrinaria del Fascismo." Uno strumento culturale che nelle intenzioni dei suoi estensori non doveva limitarsi ad una "esposizione di dottrine e di indirizzi teorici" ma che invece doveva costituire una " opera di politica in atto che comprende tutto quanto possa giovare alla formazione spirituale rigorosamente fascista delle nuove generazioni, liberandole dalle soprastrutture con cui il demoliberalismo si illuse di fissare la vita dei popoli," un mezzo che "non soltanto desse la misura delle conquiste della Rivoluzione, ma formasse, per cos dire una visione panoramica della realt , come appare sotto l'angolo visuale fascista." La "Biblioteca del Covo," per la prima volta dopo pi di 70 anni, ripropone la lettura di questo documento storico fondamentale realizzandone un'antologia che include oltre un centinaio di voci.
