"The Holocaust in Italian Culture, 1944-2010" is the first major
study of how postwar Italy confronted, or failed to confront, the
Holocaust. Fascist Italy was the model for Nazi Germany, and
Mussolini was Hitler's prime ally in the Second World War. But
Italy also became a theater of war and a victim of Nazi persecution
after 1943, as resistance, collaboration, and civil war raged. Many
thousands of Italians--Jews and others--were deported to
concentration camps throughout Europe. After the war, Italian
culture produced a vast array of stories, images, and debate
through which it came to terms with the Holocaust's difficult
legacy. Gordon probes a rich range of cultural material as he
paints a picture of this shared encounter with the darkest moment
of twentieth-century history. His book explores aspects of Italian
national identity and memory, offering a new model for analyzing
the interactions between national and international images of the
Holocaust.
