Abstract

This chapter describes the vagaries of the Trentine (or Italian-speaking Tyrolean) POWs of the Austrian-Hungarian Army in Russia during the First World War. Relying on nearly 80 diaries and memoirs by rank-and-file soldiers, Belezza shows how a small minority of convinced Italian nationalists among the Trentine POWs, who became the backbone of the fascist regime in Trentino post-1918, imposed their nationalist reading of the war on the nationally indifferent majority of POWs.
