Un vivo sentimento di fraternità umana : la transizione dal fascismo alla Repubblica nei manuali elementari italiani (1945-1957)

2021 - Franco Angeli

155-177 p.

  • Italy's primary school texts in the aftermath of the Second World War and after the fascist regime are invested by a decisive desire to mark a discontinuity with the recent past and to ensure, in contrast with the belligerent slogans of fascism, a lively feeling of human brotherhood. However, this process, in the period under examination (19451957) encountered various difficulties in deeply scratching the scholastic habit, showing heavy persistence, regarding imagery, words and narrative structures. A situation facilitated by the national and international political context created by the start of the Cold War. [Publisher's text].
