Pinocchio Effect - On Making Italians, 1860-1920

Zusammenfassung Soon after the disparate states of the Italian peninsula unified in the 1860s to create a single nation, the nationalist Massimo D'Azeglio is said to have remarked, "We have made Italy, now we have to make Italians." This work draws on a broad array of sources to trace this making of a modern national identity in Italy.
