En savoir plus sur le livre

Exploring the intersection of literary production and the concept of the 'people', this work delves into critical issues in post-War Italian history and the rise of contemporary populism. Asor Rosa, a key figure in the Workerist tradition, examines the development of a modern national tradition in Italy, addressing themes such as Italian Marxist historicism, Gramsci's influence, and the dynamics between Fascism and the Left. Through a thorough critique of significant modern Italian literary figures, the book offers a rich analysis of culture and politics.
