商品簡介
Piero Gobetti (1901-1926) may have earned himself his towering reputation as an Italian liberal intellectual in his short life and career, but a full understanding of his contributions can only come by placing him within the context of the intellectual milieu of his native city of Turin, according to Cullen (U. College Dublin), who seeks to do just that by offering chapters on the intellectual tradition of Turin from the Enlightenment to the outbreak of World War I; the emergence of Turin's avant-garde culture in the post-war years (including the contributions of Antonio Gramsci and Palmiro Togliatti); the figures associated with Gobetti's opposition journal Rivoluzione Liberale; avant-garde Turin's literary engagements and Gobetti's literary periodical Il Baretti; the politics of antifascist remembrance; and echoes of Gobetti and antifascist Turin in the recent past of Italy.
