Description
Pallavicini (b. Torino (according to Flamma) or Milan (according to Schiavo) as Pallavicini-Pirovano, 1886; d. San Francisco, 1938) began his American writing career in New York, publishing this work with the Società Libraria Italiana, founded and directed various newspapers, and was editor and/or contributor to Il Progresso ItaloAmericano, to the Giornale Italiano, and then to the Corriere d'America.
He moved west in 1920 at the request of Ettore Patrizi, the publisher of L'Italia, where he directed that daily for about 15 years. He wrote and produced radiodramas, such as his 1933 Nella terra del sogno (published by his newspaper there, L’Italia), and more sentimental fiction such as Tutto il dolore, tutto l’amore, q.v.
Martino Marazzi dryly calls La guerra italo-austriaca (in Voices in Italian America (p. 32)) a “hyperconformist outburst of exasperated nationalism.” An earlier work also published by the Italian Book Company, in 1911, contains the same unthinking patriotic support of Italy’s war, in that earlier case, with Turkey.
