Benito Mussolini Livres

De nature complexe et dissimulée, Mussolini ne s'est « ouvert » qu'à un seul interlocuteur étranger : l'écrivain et reporter Emil Ludwig. Leurs entretiens, qui eurent lieu au palais de Venise à Rome, en mars-avril 1932, dessinent le portrait d'un dictateur résolu, qui a éliminé tout adversaire à l'intérieur, mais qui semble encore soucieux de moderniser son pays et de contribuer à la paix européenne. Pour la première et la dernière fois, face à un vis-à-vis qui ne partage pas ses idées, Mussolini donne un aperçu de sa vie privée, de ses modèles et de sa vision du monde, dans un mélange étonnant de vrai et de faux. Un an plus tard, le Duce changera d'avis et essaiera d'empêcher la circulation d'un livre où il en a trop dit. Augmentés d'une préface et de notes limpides et éclairantes de Maurizio Serra, ces entretiens demeurent un document d'histoire exceptionnel. Une autobiographie à la fois de l'homme et du régime.

This memoir recounts the Italian dictator's years as an agitator, journalist, and soldier, the formation of the Fascist Party, the "March on Rome," and his early years in power. It articulates Il Duce's vision of his nation's return to glory and includes his definitive statement on the doctrine of Fascism and its political justification. 8 illustrations.
