The book is organised in two sections. Part one provides a case study of the political colony on the island of Lipari and a historical overview of internal exile. Part two focuses on representations of confinement in literature and film. It examines the varieties of self-expression (e.g. memoirs, letters and literature) used by prisoners to describe their experiences, investigates how filmmakers interpret these events, places and people, and explores how film portrays the repression of homosexuality. A timely examination of the birthplace of European federalism, the book also contributes to our understanding of the legacy of confinement from both national and European perspectives. 330 8 $a" Internal exile in Fascist Italy offers a clear and concise introduction to confino, a form of imprisonment used during the Fascist ventennio that saw antifascist dissidents exiled to remote islands or tiny inland villages. The book examines confino from a historical, political, social and cultural perspective, through both a broad overview and close analyses of particular cases and situations. The book is organised in two sections. Part one provides a case study of the political colony on the island of Lipari and a historical overview of internal exile. Part two focuses representations of confinement in literature and film. It examines the varieties of self-expression -memoirs, letters, and literature - used by prisoners to describe their experiences and investigates how filmmakers interpret these events, places, and people; particularly exploring how film portrays the repression of homosexuality. The act of confinement was a tool that allowed Mussolini to bypass the judiciary, and to targeted political dissidents, ethnic and religious minorities, and members of the gay community among others. This book seeks to contextualise a political practice that continues to find applications in twenty-first-century detention policies; and to enhance the understanding of how contemporary social discourse promotes political agendas rooted in issues - such as populism, anti-terrorism, nationalism and ethnocentrism - that are historically related to Fascism's suppression of dissidents Internal exile in Fascist Italy offers a coherent and accessible portrait of confino in its various manifestations. The authors argue that internal exile is not purely political: it possesses a cultural history that speaks to the present. Although directed towards students and specialists of Italian history, literature, film and culture, the study is accessible to those with a general interest in Fascism." --Back cover. 606 $aFascism$zItaly$y1945 606 $aPolitical prisoners$zItaly$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aDetention of persons$zItaly$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aExile (Punishment) 606 $aFascism in motion pictures 606 $aPolitics$2mup 606 $aPolitics & Government$2bicssc 606 $aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / General$2bisach 607 $aItalien$2gnd 607 $aItaly$2fast 608 $aHistory. 610 $aEuropean federalism. 610 $aconfino. 610 $aexile experience. 610 $aexile. 610 $afascism. 610 $afascist Italy. 610 $aimprisonment. 610 $ainternal exile. 610 $apolitical colonies. 610 $aventennio. 615 0$aFascism 615 0$aPolitical prisoners$xHistory 615 0$aDetention of persons$xHistory 615 0$aExile (Punishment) 615 0$aFascism in motion pictures. 615 7$aPolitics 615 7$aPolitics & Government 615 7$aPOLITICAL SCIENCE / General 676 $a320.5330945 700 $aGarofalo$b Piero$01677145 702 $aRenga$b Dana$f1971-$4aut 702 $aLeake$b Elisabeth$4aut 801 2$bUkMaJRU 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910826567803321 996 $aInternal exile in Fascist Italy$94043809 997 $aUNINA
