historian argues that Banti Risorgimento and fascism are related to the idea of \u200b\u200bnation, "blood and soil". And the story of the unification of Italy is useless, as the ideas of the founding fathers and their language. Error Ciampi and nationalism northerners.

What are we to make of the Renaissance? We are confident that the liberal Risorgimento is not related with fascism? A historian at the University of Pisa, Alberto Maria Banti (53 years), is causing a crisis for the sesquicentennial celebrations. With an anthology of texts ( "In the name of Italy", publisher Laterza ) will demonstrate how far away the false and dusty Risorgimento, and how controversial the idea of \u200b\u200bnation that it is conveyed in the two decades since Mussolini .

"If we understand what we are celebrating, doing one of the founding myths of the Risorgimento of the Republic, we must know basic structures of the discourse of nationalism and then decide if you really they still work for us, "says Professor ironically redundant on Garibaldi's proclamation, on appeals in courtly language of the Catholic Gioberti, the authoritarian monarchy sealed Albertine Statute.

Banti target the Risorgimento neopatriottismo Carlo Azeglio Ciampi, who according antileghista, decided to revive lost values \u200b\u200band symbols, like the first tri-color diamond of the Cisalpine Republic. The former president wanted to reactivate the mythography of the Renaissance to revive the sense of belonging in the nation and avert the risk of secession .
doing so, however, objected Banti, did not realize the fish up in the repertoire of the same story materials used by the League, and providing him with valuable content.
The League, in fact, according Banti, is not an anti-national movement:

"It 'a nationalist movement against the Italian nation, because it identifies a person who belongs to a specific territory, with the mechanism of the Blood and Soil.

So, as in the case of crude and Borghezio Bossi and Ciampi in the case of more complex, the basic structures of their speech are identical and refer to the same array.
"The nation is not for the Risorgimento culture is an abstraction, but a bio-political relationship, cemented by the concept of race. It 's a device that requires the sacrifice as a form of martyrdom, by the heroism of war at the heart of historical memory, involves gender asymmetry between males and females, and insists on the defense of national honor as sexual honor. "
These are the structures that feed the nationalization of the masses during the Risorgimento and liberal continue to enliven the teaching of the nation during the fascist period, explains Banta.
"show again now as the League is to legitimize the invention of Padania, and as Ciampi made to legitimize his ecumenism "Crispino" (the name of the exponent of the left historical Francesco Crispi, a former partisan, former Republican, also parliamentary therefore required to swear allegiance to the monarchy) into a harmonious whole confusing Cavour, Mazzini, Garibaldi and Vittorio Emanuele II, and canceling all the difference as if they were all aiming for the same purpose of ' Unification of Italy, it means golden cloak of fog throughout the history of the Risorgimento without understanding what to celebrate and why. "
It 's a former vice Italian historian, as is common, according to Banti, liberals and fascists, united by the same idea Risorgimento nation. And so we come to another argument for its outrageous consequences (studied by Banti in a book, "Our Blessed Mother"). The idea of \u200b\u200bthe nation from the Risorgimento Liberal Fascism ", due out in January by Laterza). " The racial laws in the fund are not consistent offshoot of the fact that the nation's blood and soil for the fascists, as it had been for the Liberals, "says Banti. Although the great historian Carlo Ginsburg, Recalls Espresso kiosk in his father Leo, "Italian by choice" of anti-hero and martyr, lived with Vittorio Foa racial laws as a betrayal of the heritage of the Renaissance " , with whom he strongly identified. But so be it.

If you really are these, namely the blood and soil, the sacrificial cult of the war, and the obsession with honor, the materials that hold together Italy today, beyond the fracture that appears each day more tenuous, between fascism and democracy, republican, you'd better find some others, suggests Banti.
"and take seriously," he adds. Eg. I suppose the constitutional patriotism that I with a beautiful ritual civic oath of loyalty to the nation's core values, to be imposed to all Italians age, and not only to naturalized foreigners. We must free ourselves of the idea that blood alone is capable of transmitting the core values. Unfortunately not. Just go out and ask the first man to recite the first articles of the Constitution. will mute scene. "And the final whistle against Balotelli Ledesma partita di calcio, fischi lanciati dagli stessi ultrà, che facevano il saluto romano, cantando l'inno di Mameli, ne offrono l'ennesima, grottesca dimostrazione", dice questo allievo di Romanelli, approdato alla Storia intellettuale dopo un tirocinio di Storia Sociale, che oggi si considera un agnostico ma si considera "un po' di sinistra", e da anni lavora su un'idea fantasma come la nazione "scomparsa dal discorso pubblico dei paesi d'Europa dopo la sconfitta del 1945, quando nessuno voleva più passare per fascista o nazista, e consumata in Italia da 50 anni di egemonia cattocomunista".
