CHANGING PERCEPTIONS OF IL DUCE TRACING POLITICAL TRENDS IN THE ITALIAN-AMERICAN MEDIA DURING THE EARLY YEARS OF FASCISM by Ryan J.

Sanders, Associate Dean of Graduate Studies Date Ryan J. Antonucci © 2013 iii ABSTRACT Scholars of Italian-American history have traditionally asserted that the ethnic community’s media during the 1920s and 1930s was pro-Fascist leaning. This thesis challenges that narrative by proving that moderate, and often ambivalent, opinions existed at one time, and the shift to a philo-Fascist position was an active process. Using a survey of six Italian-language sources from diverse cities during the inauguration of Benito Mussolini’s regime, research shows that interpretations varied significantly. One of the newspapers, Il Cittadino Italo-Americano (Youngstown, Ohio) is then used as a case study to better understand why events in Italy were interpreted in certain ways. -

22. Il “ridotto” della Valtellina «... Le milizie fasciste di Petain si avvicinano, punteranno su Grosio per farne terra bruciata...». Giuseppe Rinaldi, Ribelli in Valgrosina Quanto ci può essere stato di serio e quanto invece di farneticante nel progetto relativo al “Ridotto alpino repubblicano” della Valtellina, ideato dal capo delle Brigate Nere Alessandro Pavolini in collaborazione con il generale Rodolfo Graziani, l’ambasciatore tedesco Rudolf Rahn e il generale delle SS Karl Wolff su... istigazione dello stesso duce del fascismo Benito Mussolini? L’ultima spiaggia alle pendici del Bernina e dell’Ortles-Cevedale, verrebbe da dire avvalendoci di un burlesco ossimoro. Sonia Residori, comunque, mostra di crederci: «Negli ultimi mesi di guerra parve prendere corpo l’“ultimo ridotto”, localizzato già nell’estate del 1944 nella Valtellina e ideato da Alessandro Pavolini, nel quale condurre l’estrema battaglia dell’onore, o meglio una resistenza a oltranza alle Armate Alleate. Si trattava di un progetto che prevedeva la distruzione di strade, ponti, dighe e ferrovie, un progetto ambizioso e delirante, per creare l’“Alcazar del fascismo” di cui parla anche Vincenzo Costa, l’ultimo federale di Milano, nelle sue memorie, un progetto di cui egli avrebbe continuato a seguire 1 Sonia Residori, Una legione in armi, lo sviluppo durante l’autunno».1 Cierre edizioni Istrevi, pag. 100. 2 Joseph Darnand (Coligny, 19 mar- zo 1897 – Châtillon, 10 ottobre Ed a maggior ragione ci devono credere i partigiani della Valtellina, come 1945), già pluridecorato sul fronte leggiamo sulle pagine biografiche di Giuseppe Rinaldi: «Da alcuni giorni si attende franco-tedesco, nel primo conflitto in alta Valtellina un nuovo massiccio rastrellamento. -

A British Reflection: the Relationship between Dante’s Comedy and the Italian Fascist Movement and Regime during the 1920s and 1930s with references to the Risorgimento. Keon Esky A thesis submitted in fulfilment of requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences. University of Sydney 2016 KEON ESKY Fig. 1 Raffaello Sanzio, ‘La Disputa’ (detail) 1510-11, Fresco - Stanza della Segnatura, Palazzi Pontifici, Vatican. KEON ESKY ii I dedicate this thesis to my late father who would have wanted me to embark on such a journey, and to my partner who with patience and love has never stopped believing that I could do it. KEON ESKY iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis owes a debt of gratitude to many people in many different countries, and indeed continents. They have all contributed in various measures to the completion of this endeavour. However, this study is deeply indebted first and foremost to my supervisor Dr. Francesco Borghesi. Without his assistance throughout these many years, this thesis would not have been possible. For his support, patience, motivation, and vast knowledge I shall be forever thankful. He truly was my Virgil. Besides my supervisor, I would like to thank the whole Department of Italian Studies at the University of Sydney, who have patiently worked with me and assisted me when I needed it. My sincere thanks go to Dr. Rubino and the rest of the committees that in the years have formed the panel for the Annual Reviews for their insightful comments and encouragement, but equally for their firm questioning, which helped me widening the scope of my research and accept other perspectives. -
Sicily and the Surrender of Italy
United States Army in World War II Mediterranean Theater of Operations Sicily and the Surrender of Italy by Albert N. Garland and Howard McGaw Smyth Assisted by Martin Blumenson CENTER OF MILITARY HISTORY UNITED STATES ARMY WASHINGTON, D.C., 1993 Chapter XIV The Climax Sardinia Versus the Mainland The successful invasion of Sicily clarified strategic problems and enabled the Allies to turn from debate to decision. The Combined Chiefs of Staff at the TRIDENT Conference in May had directed General Eisenhower to knock Italy out of the war and contain the maximum number of German forces, but they had not told him how. Preparing to launch operations beyond the Sicilian Campaign, AFHQ had developed several outline plans: BUTTRESS, invasion of the Italian toe by the British 10 Corps; GOBLET, a thrust at the ball of the Italian foot by the British 5 Corps; BRIMSTONE, invasion of Sardinia; and FIREBRAND, invasion of Corsica. But a firm decision on the specific course of action to be taken was still lacking.1 The four plans, Eisenhower had explained to Churchill during the Algiers meetings in June, pointed to two broad alternative courses. If the Axis resisted vigorously in Sicily, thereby forecasting high Italian morale and a bitter and protracted struggle for the Allies, then BRIMSTONE and FIREBRAND, insular operations, were preferable. Otherwise, operations on the Italian mainland were more promising. Despite Churchill's articulate enthusiasm for the latter course, Eisenhower had made no commitment. He awaited the factual evidence to be furnished in Sicily. Meanwhile, the Americans and British continued to argue over strategy. -

By invoking the looming presence of a graver, more insidious threat the rhetoric of the lesser evil legitimizes fascist violence against dissidents and vulnerable populations. Through an analysis of texts by fascist philosopher Giovanni Gentile and his Brazilian counterpart Miguel Reale, I reveal that the rhetoric of the lesser evil is a constitutive part of fascist discourse and that in Italy and Brazil this aspect of fascist doctrine met a favorable combination of subjective and objective conditions which has allowed it to thrive within democratic structures. -

Vedimento (ASP, PNF Di Mon- Tecatini Val Di Cecina, B
“La Spalletta”, 12 settembre 2015 DALLA MARCIA SU ROMA ALLA MVSN «Vittoria Fascista»: era questo il titolo di un articolo di fondo pubblicato il 5 novembre 1922 su “Il Corazziere” (a. XLI, n. 45): foglio che mai – occorre dirlo – aveva fatto mancare il suo sostegno al movimento fondato da Mussolini il 23 marzo 1919, prima, e poi al partito nato il 7 novembre del 1921: Il nostro giornale che ha seguito, con simpatia, con fiducia, con ammirazione fervida e sincera, il fascismo, fino dal suo sor- gere, ne celebra oggi la piena e assoluta vittoria con la più grande letizia e con la ferma sicurezza che esso saprà ottimamente ricostruire come efficacemente ha saputo compiere l’opera di santa demolizione. Alle Camice nere, al genio di Benito Mussolini – duce romanamente grande – l’Italia deve la sua salvezza e dovrà la sua rina- scita e il definitivo trionfo. I primi atti del nuovo Governo infondono un ritmo nuovo alla vita nazionale: il ritmo dei forti. Finalmente – dopo l’avvicendarsi di governi abulici, inerti, tentennanti, deboli – l’Italia – per merito di Vittorio Emanuele III – ha oggi alla sua testa un Uomo dal pugno di ferro e dalla mente superiore, un Uomo che è espressione pura e genui- na della nostra razza imperiale! Salutiamo in Benito Mussolini il continuatore dell’Italia di Vittorio Veneto; diamo a Benito Mussolini adesione piena, completa, entusiastica, incondizionata; stringiamoci concordi intorno al Fascismo trionfante: questo è il dovere di quanti hanno amore e rispetto per la Patria, affetto e devozione per il Sovrano: chi non sente questo dovere è un traditore.
