Italian Colonization Of Ethiopia And Il Duce’S Rhetoric ​, Isabella Paluzzi Steele May 2026

Italian Colonization Of Ethiopia And Il Duce’S Rhetoric ​, Isabella Paluzzi Steele

Undergraduate Research and Engagement Symposium

My project analyzes the narratives constructed by Benito Mussolini about Italian colonization of Ethiopia in Fascist Italy. Mussolini's narratives regarding colonization in Ethiopia fall into narrative categories: 1. the narrative of Fascist Italy as a newly reborn Roman Empire, and 2. the narrative of Fascist Italy as racially superior to Ethiopians which made a civilizing mission necessary to Mussolini. Mussolini’s verbal narratives and their diffusion should be examined to gain a clearer understanding of what was shown to the Italian public so there is an understanding of the dissonance between official policies and proclamations and public sentiment.
