Through an analysis of his published writings and speeches, it investigates how Mussolini’s understanding, perceptions, and uses of Latin evolved over time, from his early days as a Socialist leader to his years as head of Italian Fascism. Despite his limited knowledge of the language, Mussolini accorded Latin special symbolic significance and actively sought to cultivate an image of himself as proficient in it. The article demonstrates how Mussolini's initial association of Latin with the Roman Catholic Church and bourgeois culture gave way to a recognition of its political potential in the context of the Fascist cult of Rome. It is shown how Mussolini employed Latin words and phrases for various purposes throughout his political career. Particular emphasis is placed on the ways in which he used Latin to communicate Fascist ideas and to construct his public persona as the ‘Roman-style’ leader of Fascism.","PeriodicalId":41733,"journal":{"name":"Symbolae Osloenses","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42255394","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Es wird gezeigt, dass der Digression eine komplexe metapoetische Funktion zukommt, sowohl mit Blick auf die intendierte Mittelstellung der PH zwischen Ilias und Odyssee wie auch als Scharnierstelle zwischen den in Inhalt und Ton stark gegensätzlichen Teilen von Buch 10. Ferner wird über die Lokalisierung von Skylakeus’ Grabmal beim Felsgrab des Bellerophon in Tlos auch der Bogen zur epischen Vorvergangenheit der Ilias geschlagen.","PeriodicalId":41733,"journal":{"name":"Symbolae Osloenses","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2022-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49557263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"历史学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
