Fratelli di sangue
La 'ndrangheta calabrese non ha certo l'immensa fama di Cosa Nostra o della camorra, ma ha oggi ramificazioni in ogni regione italiana e nei cinque continenti, può vantare rapporti con organizzazioni criminali e terroristiche straniere di primissimo piano...
Building a Civil Society
The most passionate advocates of Italy’s unification in the nineteenth century possessed an almost limitless faith in the benefits of civic association. They also shared a common concern: once Italian unification was achieved and various freedoms were established, would ordinary Italians naturally become responsible, progressive citizens – especially after centuries of foreign rule, regional division, and economic decline? Most unification advocates doubted that their fellow citizens could form a modern, progressive civil society on their own, or that a vibrant association life would develop from the ground up. Building a Civil Society is the first book-length English-language study of associational life in nineteenth-century Italy. Drawing on extensive research in published and unpublished documents – including associational records, newspapers, periodicals, government documents, guidebooks, exhibition catalogues, memoirs, and private letters – Steven C. Soper provides a complex account of Italian liberalism during Europe’s age of association. His study also raises important questions about the role that associations play in emerging democracies.

Mazzini
DIVGiuseppe Mazzini was one of the leading figures in the political history of nineteenth-century Europe. A vigorous proponent of nationalism, pre-eminent figure in the struggle for Italian independence and unity, and fascinating personality, his ideas were influential throughout Europe. Yet successive Italian governments, fearing the consequences of his belief in democracy and revolution, deliberately obscured his achievements: there have been few modern studies of Mazzini and no biography in English since 1902. Denis Mack Smith's major new account reexamines Mazzini's ideological impact and his place in the political and intellectual world of the mid-nineteenth century. Based on profound s...

Repertory of Dutch and Flemish Paintings in Italian Public Collections
Eight years after the publication of volume 2 dedicated to Lombardia, Centro Di publishes, in two volumes, the long awaited third volume in the series 'Repertory of Dutch and Flemish Paintings In Italian Public Collections'; this time the volume is dedicated to the almost 1000 works in Piedmont and Valle d'Aosta, and split into two parts. Initiated in 1998 and divided by Italian regions, the series, which is the result of a vast research project led by the Dutch Institute for Art History in Florence, is a great editorial feat, one that has brought outstanding works of art as well as lesser ones to the attention of the art specialist as well as to the wider public, bringing to light a huge amount of material scattered in collections all over Italy. Each volume is edited by a noted art historian and offers new insights and revised attributions, as well as being richly illustrated.
