Can the unprecedented rise of the historical genre in Italy after 1980 be explained out of the Umberto Eco effect alone, as many critics believe? This book discusses the ongoing literary quest for new collective identities in the present-day Italian nation challenged by European integration, globalisation and the burgeoning regionalism.
