Reseña del libro "The Romance of Italy and the English Political Imagination (en Inglés)"
In blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction, diplomats and travelers, English nation and Italian nation, Maura O'Connor shows us the extent to which imagination, pleasure, and politics were intimately interwoven in her story of the English middle-class fascination with the Italian peninsula from the early 1800s through the 1860s. OConnor uses a variety of sources, ranging from travel writings and the popular press to diplomatic dispatches and official correspondence, to illustrate how influential the romance of Italy was to the bourgeois, liberal, and above all English social order during a time when class society was undergoing reconfiguration. Her use of the collective imagination as a crucial historical tool, and her emphasis on narrative as a means not only to read texts but also to understand political sources such as diplomatic documents as reflections of culture, make this a groundbreaking book which defies conventional categorization. Also included are the unique assertions that the concepts of Englishness and "England" were conceived in anything but isolation, and that neither high politics nor foreign policy may be viewed as domains separate from the forces of cultural imagination and production. A Political Romance is an innovative and interdisciplinary look at English identity and the role of Italy in its construction.
