Description
"A history shorn of a countrys cultural element is not a true history of its people. A history that does not reflect the societal contributions of its poets, artists and musicians is incomplete. Without Dante, Petrarch, Michelangelo, Vivaldi, Ariosto, Alfieri, Verdi, Puccini, Manzoni, Quasimodo and Pirandello, the Italy of the past dissolves". This illustrated history adheres to the above lines which open it. Written in an accessible style, it covers the full panoply of Italys history — from Roman days to the twenty-first century.
