Description:
This recording refers to Rome. The ancient capital of the Roman Empire, of which it preserves numerous remains, is the object of a myth and a cult of "Romanity" ("romanità") due to its embodiment of the history, symbols and values of the ancient empire (military power, heroism, imperialism, grandeur, glory) on which the Fascist regime bases its own symbolic apparatus and national imaginary. From the early 1920s, the city was redeveloped to showcase the Roman ruins, at the cost of destroying part of its later architectural heritage. Linking the Colosseum to Piazza Venezia, from which Benito Mussolini worked and delivered some of the most important speeches of the Fascist period, the "Via dell'Impero" (now "Via dei Fori Imperiali"), laid out between 1924 and 1932 to better showcase the many sites that line it, is an eloquent testimony to this highly symbolic urban policy.
