Nation and Character from the Risorgimento to the Republic

Shedding light on Italian political culture, this fascinating study of Italian national character and its vices shows how they first became a political issue during the struggle for national independence and that they were consequently shaped by foreign images, stereotypes of the Italians and changing political and intellectual contexts.
