Talk:Fascism/ Discrepancy in text
|
|
Herbert Hoover, in his book Challenge to Liberty (1934) has the phrase "Century of the Left" pg 66, quoting from the Doctrine of Fascism. He quotes the "London Quarterly" where he got his source from.
The Doctrine of Fascism as printed now has the phrase "Century of the <<Right>>". These marks <<>> are in the text.
The Plot Thickens
Mussolini recalled and destroyed all available copies of the Doctrine of Fascism in April l940 after he had second thoughts about certain phrases in it. This from in Fascsim by Noel O'Sullivan, l983 pg 138 who references, Mussolini's Roman Empire, by Mack Smith Penguin, ed., l979, first published in l976, pg 247.
Questions abound
What are <<>> in the text? Is this proper to the original text? Did Mussolini publish an edited version? Can we get some help from the people at Encyclopadia Italiana? Are the copies of the l932 Enciclopadia Italiana originals, reprints with the new revised doctrine in it. Are there TWO doctrines of Fascism out there and can theses documents be put side by side and a comparison made?
Can someone help clarify these issues? I need help in this matter.

are commonly used in italian. they emphasize words and separate phrases. choosing to emphasize a falsified word is unlikely. Badanedwa 23:21, Jun 27, 2004 (UTC)
