Italy and the "Irish Risorgimento" : Italian Perspectives on the Irish War of Independence, 1919-21 / Chiara Chini.. - "Italian nationalism was a deeply divisive issue in both Britain and Ireland. While British evangelicals, radicals and liberals and (for a time) Irish nationalists embraced the Italian struggle, conservatives and Catholics opposed what they saw as a threat to European order and to the political authority of the papacy. This collection of essays examines Mazzinian networks in Britain and Ireland both during and after the Risorgimento, it explores the role of religion and the British-Irish semi-colonial relationship in shaping British and Irish reactions to Italian independence, it analyses the part played by Italian exiles in the construction of the pro-Italian platform in Britain and Ireland, and considers the Italian idea of an 'Irish Risorgimento' in the first decades of the twentieth century"--
