Postfascistes
L’article examine la propagande visuelle de l’extrême droite parlementaire italienne depuis 1995, lorsque le Movimento Sociale Italiano, ouvertement néo-fasciste, a été dissous par son dirigeant Gianfranco Fini et remplacé par Alleanza Nazionale, un parti qui se décrit comme « post-fasciste ». L’analyse iconographique montre que, malgré les affirmations répétées de rupture du cordon ombilical avec le régime de Mussolini, la propagande d’Alleanza …
The Political Portrait
"The leader's portrait, produced in a variety of media (statues, coins, billboards, posters, stamps), is a key instrument of propaganda in totalitarian regimes, but increasingly also dominates political communication in democratic countries as a result of the personalization and spectacularization of campaigning. Written by an international group of contributors, this volume spans the last one hundred years, covering a wide range of countries aro…
The Italian Renaissance in American Gothic
Grant Wood’s style became more sharply contoured and abstract from the late 1920s, a transformation generally attributed to his 1928 trip to Munich, which exposed him to early Flemish and German paintings. Backed by documentary and circumstantial evidence, this study argues that several of Wood’s best-known works are in fact compositionally and iconographically indebted to the Italian Renaissance, and more specifically to Piero della Francesca, a…
Iconic images in propaganda
Italian visual propaganda often makes use of well-established imagery, to exploit its proven impact. Renaissance masterpieces with religious subject matter were recurrently reproduced on political posters in the early post-war years and during the referenda campaigns of 1974 and 1981, mostly to characterise the parties as Christian. In Italy and elsewhere these images now tend to be employed in a secular way, for instance to denounce injustices a…
Back to the future. The visual propaganda of Alleanza Nazionale (1994–2009)
Observers who have investigated Alleanza Nazionale's relationship to historical fascism have mostly relied on programmatic documents as well as Gianfranco Fini's speeches and interviews. This article tackles the same question by considering the visual propaganda produced by the party from its launch in 1994 to its merger with Silvio Berlusconi's Popolo della Libertà in March 2009. An examination of the logos, the portraits of Fini and other image…

Ellwood government propaganda - official newsreels and documentaries in the 1950s, Maria Adelaide Frabotta Italian propaganda abroad - the case of the surrogate voice of Italians in post-war Britain, Lucio Sponza the Italian Communist Party in propaganda films of the early post-war period, Mino Argentieri political identity and…
L'image au pouvoir
La propagande placardée de Forza Italia est dominée par l'effigie de Silvio Berlusconi. L'étude des portraits électoraux, dans une perspective comparatiste, permet de révéler le caractère très distinctif et l'évolution de la stratégie persuasive du parti. L'article aborde également la question de l'imitation de la propagande d'autrui et de la parodie. Cette étude remarque enfin que les portraits de Berlusconi sont nombreux et fréquents dans d'aut…
