Italian Children’s Literature and National Identity: Childhood, Melancholy, Modernity - Children's Literature and Culture
Truglio, Maria (Pennsylvania State University, USA)
This book examines how children’s books forged a unified national identity for the new Italian State. Chapters on the heroic figure of Garibaldi, the Orientalized depiction of the South, and the role of girls in formation narratives show how melancholic itineraries produced gendered national subjects.
