"This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Modern Italy introduces the country's key personalities, events, social developments, and cultural achievements since the beginning of the 19th century, when national feeling began to grow and Italy first emerged as something more than a geographical entity. It includes a chronology, a list of acronyms and abbreviations, an introductory essay, a map, a bibliography, and nearly 400 cross-referenced dictionary entries on prominent individuals, institutions, events, politics, economics, society, and culture."--BOOK JACKET.
