About this book
Reviews
“The book is both ambitious and meticulously researched and, insofar as it invites us to rethink the place of Italy in relation not only to the Mediterranean region but also to Europe and the rest of the world, it represents a timely critical contribution to the field of contemporary Italian studies.” (Nick Dines, H-SAE, H-Net Reviews, April,2018)
'In the past thirty years Italian public culture has been increasingly defined in terms of its relationship to the Mediterranean. In Italy and the Mediterranean Bouchard and Ferme present a thorough and compelling analysis of how intellectuals, musicians, filmmakers, and writers have re-elaborated Italian identities and successfully pushed the boundaries of national belonging. This book provides a rich and comprehensive study of contemporary Italian culture that will be of interest to scholars in various academic fields - from history to media studies, philosophy, cultural geography, music, and literature.' - Michela Ardizzoni, University of Colorado Boulder, USA, and author of North/South, East/West: Mapping Italianness on Television and Beyond Monopoly: Globalization and Contemporary Italian Media
