Course Description:

This class will be entirely devoted to Pier Paolo Pasolini's novel Petrolio, which was left unfinished at the time of the author's murder. Its great subject is how fascism continued to influence Italy after the end of World War II. Carlo, its rebellious anti-hero, is determined to rise in the world of politics, and his journey through the corridors of power reveals the connections between the Fascist Party, the Mafia, the CIA, and the Communist Party, and how they shaped the Italy we know today. Taught in English.
