Fashion During the Nationalism and Imperialism of the Years of Fascism - E-book - PDF

Daniela Calanca's analysis of the visual and audio-visualdocuments on "Fashion" - (1928-1945) implemented in ArchivioStorico Istituto Luce offers novel research opportunities relating to the fashion theme in the context of 1930s nationalism and imperialism. In particular, from a contemporary historiographical perspective, these documents - specifically the Luce film newsreels - enable us to identify and see how a system of political, economic and cultural relationships contributed to the creation and affirmation of Italian modernity in the world.
And vice versa, they enable us to see how international modernity reflects in the Italian context.
