"A Civil War" is a history of the wartime Italian Resistance,
recounted by a historian who took part in the struggle against
Mussolini's Fascist Republic. Since its publication in Italy,
Claudio Pavone's masterwork has become indispensable to anyone
seeking to understand this period and its continuing importance for
the nation's identity.
Pavone casts a sober eye on his protagonists' ethical and
ideological motivations. He uncovers a multilayered conflict, in
which class antagonisms, patriotism and political ideals all played
a part. A clear understanding of this complexity allows him to
explain many details of the post-war transition, as well as the
legacy of the Resistance for modern Italy. In addition to being a
monumental work of scholarship, "A Civil War" is a folk history,
capturing events, personalities
and attitudes that were on the verge of slipping entirely out of
recollection to the detriment of Italy's understanding of itself
and its past.
