History of Modern Italy

On Tuesday nights during this academic year, the Institute will present a thirty-week course on Modern Italy taught by William Fredlund, Ph.D. The study of Modern Italy will begin in the year 1600, and will offer the student the opportunity to discuss the idea of “Modern.” as well as the flowering of Italian culture in seventeenth century Rome. During the Winter Quarter we will study the making of the modern Italian democracy in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. And then in Spring Quarter we will follow the evolution of the new democratic state of Italy into the twentieth century and the story of the Fascist dictatorship of Mussolini.
