The newspaper articles reviewed here, create and disseminate symbolic meanings, are an arena of clash and confrontation, and are themselves public spheres and activators of memory. The analysis, critically following Maurice Halbwachs’ insight, highlights the role of the media as a space of mediation and negotiation that dialogues with the past but aims at interpreting the present.

The analysis, critically following Maurice Halbwachs’ insight, highlights the role of the media as a space of mediation and negotiation that dialogues with the past but aims at interpreting the present.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
