Continuing my multi-volume history of Italy (Volume 15). Tom Send a noteboard - 01/07/2013 10:03:49 PM

L'Italia della Guerra Civile covers the period from the 8th of September 1943 (when Italy signed the armistice with the Allies) to the 9th of May 1946 (When Vittorio Emanuele III abdicated the throne of Italy).

After that, something in German, something in French and after that, probably something in Old English. Maybe Das Kapital; it will make it easier to argue with communists and crypto-communists because I doubt most of them have actually read it.

Political correctness is the pettiest form of casuistry.

ἡ δὲ κἀκ τριῶν τρυπημάτων ἐργαζομένη ἐνεκάλει τῇ φύσει, δυσφορουμένη, ὅτι δὴ μὴ καὶ τοὺς τιτθοὺς αὐτῇ εὐρύτερον ἢ νῦν εἰσι τρυπώη, ὅπως καὶ ἄλλην ἐνταῦθα μίξιν ἐπιτεχνᾶσθαι δυνατὴ εἴη. – Procopius

Ummaka qinnassa nīk!
