Mellon Foundation.Anglophobia in Fascist Italy traces the origins and development of anti-British sentiment in Fascist Italy, as Britain turned from being an ally in the First World War to an enemy in the Second. The book demonstrates that Fascist ideologues framed Britain as a stagnant and decaying country and the polar opposite of Fascism's new civilisation, to the point that the regime's assessment of British political resolve and military might were distorted by ideological bias. The book offers a thorough analysis of diplomatic, military and journalistic sources and demonstrates that anti-British tropes had permeated Italy to a greater degree than was previously believed. 606 $aFascism$zItaly$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aItaly$xForeign relations$zGreat Britain 610 $aAnglo-Italian relations. 610 $aBenito Mussolini. 610 $aEuropean relations in the Interwar Years. 610 $aFascist Italy. 610 $aItalian history. 610 $aSecond World War. 610 $amilitary attachés. 610 $aracist theories. 610 $atotalitarianism. 610 $awar propoganda. 615 0$aFascism$xHistory 676 $a945.091 700 $aPili$b Jacopo$01260779 801 0$bNjHacI 801 1$bNjHacl 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910552750603321 996 $aAnglophobia in fascist Italy$92922175 997 $aUNINA
