This collection of essays brings together the work of a new
generation of revisionist historians who argue that the true
history of Southern Italy has been reduced to that of a 'Southern
problem' viewed through a Northern prism. These scholars suggest
that the South was not a 'backward' region, but a combination of
regions in which different social and economic patterns had evolved
in response to the prevailing conditions within the Kingdom of the
Two Sicilies. The book employs an interdisciplinary approach to
examine not only the concrete history of the South, but also the
discourses and images in which it has been framed. It is the first
publication in English devoted to the new history of Southern
Italy, and brings together many of the leading figures in the
revisionist movement, as well as some of their critics.
