Nerenberg diverges from the notion that a radical break from Fascism coincided with Mussolini's fall, instead revealing a disturbing continuity of social restraints following World War II. Drawing on critical discourses of architectural design, urban planning, and cultural geography, Nerenberg offers readings of Buzzati, PiovŠne, de CTspedes, Banti, Morante, Pratolini, and Gadda. Not limiting herself to prisons, she also explores military barracks, convents, brothels, and homes as carceral homologue. In a surprising investigation of the male body as defined by the architectural space of the barracks and the discursive practices of military guides and journals, she challenges the notion circulated during Fascism of a homogenous model of masculinity. She also probes the social and symbolic positions of women in relation to confinement, the law, power, and liberty. In a chapter titled "House Arrest," she treats the ominous space of the home as a homologue for prison wherein "women are induced into criminality." A study of literal and literary spaces during and after Italian Fascism, this work examines the ways in which Fascist cultural and discursive practices and ideology endure in other guises past the fall of the Regime. 410 0$aToronto Italian studies. 606 $aItalian literature$y20th century$xHistory and criticism 606 $aPrisons in literature 606 $aImprisonment in literature 606 $aFascism and culture$zItaly 606 $aFascism and literature$zItaly 606 $aFascism in literature 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aItalian literature$xHistory and criticism. 615 0$aPrisons in literature. 615 0$aImprisonment in literature. 615 0$aFascism and culture 615 0$aFascism and literature 615 0$aFascism in literature. 676 $a850.9/355 700 $aNerenberg$b Ellen Victoria$f1962-$0917912 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456156003321 996 $aPrison terms$92464240 997 $aUNINA
