Over the last decade and a half the flamboyant, unscrupulous Silvio Berlusconi has endowed the post-Fascist Republic of Italy with a clear, if unsavory face. Can't Italians do better? They can--and have. The brilliant, pragmatic and quietly charismatic Alcide de Gasperi led Italy through the difficult years of post-war reconstruction, adoption of a republican government, and entry into the Atlantic Alliance. His tenure of service as prime minster stands second only to Berlusconi's.

A Note on the Text: Resisting Bodies: Narratives of Italian Partisan Women is a translation of texts that explore the experience of partisan women in Italy between 1943 and 1945. The authors have selected short stories and excerpts from novels and autobiographies that raise or address the question of gender within the partisan experience. These texts provide the American reading public with a long-needed access to the experience of World War II from a perspective that history and literature have often considered marginal.

From the ghostwriters working for Alexandre Dumas père to Hollywood studios, via Surrealists' Cadavre exquis, a significant tradition of collective writing has accompanied the progress of modern fiction. After the success of group authors like Wu Ming and Kai Zen, collective writing has played an important role in the development of the contemporary Italian novel. Scrittura Industriale Collecttiva (Collective Industrial Writing) builds on this tradition by elaborating a method (SIC method) for the collective writing of fictional texts in the digital age. The most important result of the SIC method is the Grande Romanzo Aperto, an open historical novel written by one hundred writers coordinated through the website of Scrittura Industriale Collettiva. From theoretical, aesthetic, and legal points of view, investigating the present situation of collective writing leads to the discussion of crucial issues for the development of the twenty-first century novel.
