Abstract

[Adrian R. Duran’s chapter analyzes the evolution of images of the military of and in Italy since Unification. This investigation unpacks the relationship between history and its representation, beginning within the context of Italian national self-determination in the age of the Risorgimento. Duran’s investigation then continues into the twentieth century, touching upon Futurism’s relationships with the technocratic bellicosity of the First World War–era Italy, interwar Fascism and its mythologies of militocratic Italianità, the Second World War and postwar recovery and the dispersed militarism of the 1960s and 1970s. Interwoven with this historical trajectory is an enunciation of the evolution of Italian art from late Romanticism through arte povera and the attendant discourses of Modernism and Postmodernism in the visual arts.]
