Identity of purposes and difference of origins in a novel on the Italian Resistance: Il clandestino (The cladestine) (1962) by Mario Tobino

Summary/Abstract: In this novel of the toscan writer it’s possible to mark an identity of purposes into the members of a partisan group (the Clandestine of the title) who struggles in Medusa (Viareggio) and environs from september 1943 until the summer of 1944 against the german occupation forces and their allieds, the fascists of the Italian Social Republic, but too a remarkable difference of origins into them: for exemple, in the members of the partisan group we find the admiral Umberto Saverio. the humble medical doctor Anselmo and the docker Adriatico. But, too late, when the Clandestine isn’t no more isolated and receives aids from the anglo-american (weapons, uniforms, food and money), and after the death of some original members of the partisan group, another difference of purposes appears: their followers kills an old survived fascist, Rindi, without trial, and only for revenge, without the spirit to create a New Italy as was the true purpose of the italian Resistance.
