This edited collection provides the first comprehensive history of
Florence as the mid-19th century capital of the fledgling Italian
nation. Covering various aspects of politics, economics, culture
and society, this book examines the impact that the short-lived
experience of becoming the political and administrative centre of
the Kingdom of Italy had on the Tuscan city, both immediately and
in the years that followed. It reflects upon the urbanising changes
that affected the appearance of the city and the introduction of
various economic and cultural innovations. The volume also analyses
the crisis caused by the eventual relocation of the capital to Rome
and the subsequent bankruptcy of the communality which hampered
Florence on the long road to modernity. Florence: Capital of the
Kingdom of Italy, 1865-71 is a fascinating study for all students
and scholars of modern Italian history.
