This new edition of Christopher Duggan's acclaimed introduction charts the country's history from the fall of the Roman Empire in the west to the present day and surveys the difficulties Italy has faced during the last two centuries in forging a nation state. Duggan successfully weaves together political economic social and cultural history and stresses the alternation between materialist and idealist programmes for forging a nation state. This second edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to offer increased coverage of nineteenth - and twentieth - century Italy as well as a new section devoted to Italy in the twenty - first century. With a new extensive bibliographical essay and a detailed chronology this is the ideal resource for those seeking an authoritative and comprehensive introduction to Italian history.\u003cbr\u003e\nTitle: A Concise History Of Italy\u003cbr\u003e\nAuthor(s): Duggan Christopher (University Of Reading)\u003cbr\u003e\nPublisher: Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\nBarcode: 9780521747431\u003cbr\u003e\nPages: 360 Pages, 12 Tables, Black And White; 4 Maps; 41 Halftones, Unspecified\u003cbr\u003e\nPublication Date: 12\/5\/2013\u003cbr\u003e\nSeries: Cambridge Concise Histories\u003cbr\u003e\nCategory: European History","brand":"Duggan Christopher (University Of Reading)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49596003320113,"sku":"IN-G-9780521747431","price":24.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0644\/6759\/9594\/files\/9780521747431.jpg?v=1754886529","url":"https:\/\/bookdelivered.com\/products\/9780521747431-a-concise-history-of-italy","provider":"Book Delivered","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
