Youth at the Beginning of the 20th Century

commiatoSILVIA PIO

Not many know that the  Fascist song “Giovinezza” (Youth) was written before the coming of the disastrous political period which led to dictatorship and war. It was written at the beginning of the 20th century by the student-poet Nino Oxilia as a celebration for the Law graduates in 1909.

An essay by Patrizia Deabate, published in the magazine “Piedmont’s Studies” of Turin, tells us all the story.
