1931001403Roma e Milano: Edizioni "Augustea" Quaderni d"Attualita 1931. Wraps. Good. 107 pp. 21 by 16 cm. A comparatively clear and straightforward explanation and defense of the corporatist theory underlying the Fascist movement in Italy. Arnaldo was the brother of Benito and like him a journalist. This screed came out months before he passed away of cardiac arrest at the age of 46. Before his sudden death he was instrumental in forging a reconciliation between the Fascist movement and the Catholic Church. The preface to this essay is also notable because of its authorship Giuseppe Bottai who was a Futurist who then signed on to the Fascist Party and became one of its most influential proponents. The interior is clean other than a few pencil underlinings. The wraps are chipped browned and brittle and there is a crack all the way down the spine. Una spiegazione relativemente chiara e diretta e anche un argomento sulla teoria corporativa che ha sottoposto il movimento fascista in Italia. Arnaldo Mussolini era il fratello di Benito e come Benito era giornalista. Questo argomento e apparso soltanto i pochi mesi prima della morte di Arnaldo da un attacco cardiaco. Prima della sua morte lui aveva un ruolo centrale nella reconciliazione fra il governo fascista e la chiesa cattolica. La prefazione di questo saggio e notabile perche il suo scrittore Bottai era Futurista che come Marinetti e diventato un membro entusiastico della partita fascista. Della condizione del libro: dentro e pulito tranne che le poche sottolinealizioni. La coperta e scheggiata brunita e fragile. <br/><br/> Edizioni "Augustea" (Quaderni d"Attualita) paperback books

Two black & white photographs measuring approximately 4.25 inches x 6.25 inches 105mm x 162mm depicting the upside-down hanging corpse of Italian Fascist Dictator Benito Mussolini and others on April 29 1945. A day earlier Mussolini his mistress Clara Claretta Petacci her brother and the dictator's 15 person entourage of ministers and officials of the Italian Social Republic were captured by partisans. They had been traveling with retreating German forces with Mussolini apparently wearing a German military uniform. They were executed in Giulino di Mezzegra by shooting or firing squad and the bodies transported south of Milan and dumped at the old Piazzale Loreto which was renamed Piazza Quindici Martiri. After the corpses were shot kicked and spat upon the bodies were hung upside-down on meathooks from the roof of an Esso gas station. The bodies were then stoned by civilians. The site had previously been used for executions of partisans by Axis authories. One photographs shows a total of 7 hanging corpses identified only by number.

It is almost a straight on shot maybe 15 degrees to the right showing 50-60 spectators and a few men facing the crowd apparently acting as security. There are no G.I.'s shown although 4-5 men in leather jackets standing directly in front of the corpses may be aviators.The other photograph is a close-up of Mussolini and his mistress taken about 45 degrees from the left. There is no photographer's identification on the front or back of the prints. Minor staining to the edges. These are original prints from 1945. No publisher hardcover books

19321189091932. First Edition . MUSSOLINI Benito MORI Cesare. The Last Struggle with the Mafia. London and New York: Putnam 1933. Octavo original brown cloth uncut and partially unopened original dust jacket. $900.First edition in English issued within months of the 1932 first Italian edition of the authorized memoir of Mussolini's brutal ""anti-Mafia supremo Cesare Mori"" famed as the ""Iron Prefect"" for promising ""to eradicate the Mafia 'as a surgeon penetrates flesh with fire and steel'"" with photographic frontispiece and 15 full-page illustrations a fine copy in the original dust jacket.In the aftermath of WWI ""the supreme authority of the state was Fascism's blazon motif. The Sicilian Mafia constituted a state within a state. Therefore Fascism and the Mafia were on a collision course"" Dickie Blood Brotherhoods 225. In June 1924 ""Mussolini picked his anti-Mafia supremo Cesare Mori"" to lead the battle. ""Known as the 'Iron Prefect' because of his brutal methods Mori promised to eradicate the Mafia 'as a surgeon penetrates flesh with fire and steel' Throughout Sicily he exploited the Mafiosi's so-called 'code of honor' to put pressure on prisoners they were tortured forced to drink jugfuls of salted water and beaten"" Follain Last Godfathers 14-15. After five years Mori ""was recalled to Rome. His part of the job of eradicating the Mafia Mussolini declared had been completed; it was up to the judiciary to finish the task"" Dickie 226. Mori's authorized memoir first issued in Italian in 1932 was quickly translated for this first edition in English. In it he presented himself ""as a sort of Fascist caped crusader even a little local duce sparring valorously and successfully for justice and the Fascist way."" Yet Mori's own ""announced recipe for life 'Vendetta is firstly a duty and secondly a pleasure and a right' hinted at an iron realism or a cynicism which ill accorded with some of the more high-flown talk about Fascist new men and women."" Ultimately Fascism's victory over the Mafia faltered. ""It may be true that during the 1920s and 1930s Fascist policies had curbed Mafia killings and exploitation for the short term but conditions were ripe for the Mafia to renew itself with the American-led invasion after 1943. Mori's triumph had proved fleeting"" Bosworth Mussolini's Italy. First edition in English first printing: with ""First published in England March 1933"" on copyright page. Translation by Orlo Williams from the first Italian edition Con La Mafia Ai Ferri Corti. With photographic frontispiece and 15 full-page photographic illustrations.
