Full Description
This collection offers a range of Latin texts in both prose and poetry written under Italian Fascism and German National Socialism. These texts actively engage with the political realities of their time. Many served as instruments of propaganda and indoctrination that spread and reinforced harmful ideological positions. Others can be considered documents of resistance or inner emigration, sometimes composed in the face of grave personal danger. This book presents the Latin texts alongside English translations, with notes and introductions that provide historical context and illuminate the relationships between the authors. It demonstrates how the language of ancient Rome was politicised under these two totalitarian regimes.
