Cette contribution apporte des réflexions d'ordre général sur la présence du fascisme dans la mémoire publique de l'Italie républicaine. Les résultats obtenus dans le domaine scientifique, notamment ...à partir des années 1970, n'ont pas atteint l'opinion publique italienne où est encore largement répandue une vision édulcorée et dédramatisée du fascisme. Récemment, la proposition de fonder un musée historique du fascisme à Predappio, village natal de Benito Mussolini, a remis sur le devant de la scène la problématique des discours persistants sur le fascisme dans le champ de l'usage public de l'histoire.
The article focuses on The Iron Centuria, a historical book series published by Oberdan Zucchi in Milan between 1935 and 1942. A paradigm of the Fascist militarization of culture in the Thirties, ...this series aspired to be a quick and easy historical reference that contributes to the legitimization of Italy's Fascist wars. A hundred short biographies, exemplary for language and ideological contents, grouped in ten «squadrons», represented Fascism as the culmination of a secular development and affirmation of Italian patriotism. From the Risorgimento to the Great War, these one hundred «precursors» were described as archetypes of military virtue, sense of the State, heroism, vocation to the martyrdom, and ingeniousness in the field of the science, art and literature. Among various expressions of culture and popular propaganda, The Iron Centuria is notable as a useful tool for exploring lexical codes, themes, narratives and uses of the historical past during a crucial phase of the fascist regime.

Cet article propose un panorama des études récentes qui, en dialogue étroit avec l’historiographie européenne, ont interrogé les rapports entre la construction de la mémoire publique du Risorgimento ...et les parcours de la nationalisation politique et culturelle des Italiens. Notre examen porte sur la production concernant le premier demi-siècle post-unitaire (1861-1911), période décisive de fondation et d’intégration des mythes du Risorgimento dans le discours public et les diverses stratégies de pédagogie patriotique. Nous avons privilégié l’analyse de la dialectique entre mémoire officielle et mémoires anragonistes, la variété des canaux symboliques utilisés pour véhiculer les mythes et les rituels patriotiques, les acteurs (institutions nationales et locales, associations, etc.) du discours national et de la mise en scène du Risorgimento, de même que les divers niveaux de réception de la pédagogie patriotique.
