This book is a translation of La Nazione del Risorgimento, one of
the most important and influential works on modern Italian history
published in recent years. It analyses the aspects of the ideas of
nationhood and patriotism that impassioned and energized the
Italian Risorgimento movement during the first half of the
nineteenth century. Employing an innovative interdisciplinary
approach that examines the cultural production and consumption of
the period, the author has challenged the orthodoxies of post-1945
Italian historiography. He explores the developing themes that gave
strength to the idea of the Italian 'nation', and in the process
persuasively explains why so many young men and women were willing
to lay down their lives for the 'patria' and its independence.
