As stated in the introduction, "This book traces the history of the myth of the nation in contemporary Italy along the curve of its rise and fall," and in this manner "illustrates what the nation's and the national State's problems have been for the Italians of our era." By "Italians," Gentile means the whole range of political, cultural, and social actors, ranging from the Liberals to the Catholics, the Monarchists to the Republicans, the Fascists to the anti-Fascists, the Socialists to the Christian Democrats and even including the "man-in-the-street." Thus this work presents a sweeping study of the development of Italian national identity in all its incarnations throughout the twentieth century.
