from Roads to Rome · host dml0sc
In this episode, we explore how Rome became a battleground of ideas during the rise of fascism in Italy. From the Risorgimento’s vision of a unified capital to the futurists’ disdain for its ruins and Mussolini’s calculated embrace of Romanità, we uncover how the city’s rich symbolism was manipulated to serve competing ideologies. Discover how Rome’s ancient legacy was reframed as a symbol of national strength and modern ambition, shaping its transformation into the stage for Italy’s new political identity.
