Fashioning Italian Youth : Young People's Identity and Style in Italian Popular Culture, 1958-75 Hardback
by Cecilia Brioni
Part of the Studies in Popular Culture series
Hardback
Description
Fashioning Italian youth examines popular media representations of Italian young people’s style trends and bodily practices from 1958–75.
By looking at visual and written representations of transnational youth trends – like urlatori, amici, beats and hippies – in Italian teen magazines, Musicarelli films and youth-oriented television programmes, it investigates changes in the social construction of Italian young people’s political, generational, national, ethnic and gender identities.
The monograph connects the emergence of youth-oriented transnational trends to the national and global history of young people, and explores the dynamics that contributed to the construction of a specifically Italian youth culture in this period. -- .
