Architecture and the Novel under the Italian Fascist Regime
discusses the relationship between the novel and architecture
during the Fascist period in Italy (1922-1943). By looking at two
profoundly diverse aesthetic phenomena within the context of the
creation of a Fascist State art, Billiani and Pennacchietti argue
that an effort of construction, or reconstruction, was the main
driving force behind both projects: the advocated "revolution" of
the novel form (realism) and that of architecture (rationalism).
The book is divided into seven chapters, which in turn analyze the
interconnections between the novel and architecture in theory and
in practice. The first six chapters cover debates on State art, on
the novel and on architecture, as well as their historical
development and their unfolding in key journals of the period. The
last chapter offers a detailed analysis of some important novels
and buildings, which have in practice realized some of the key
principles articulated in the theoretical disputes.
