Introduction
by
Il Dott.
Matteo Dominioni
Historian, University of
Torino
|
The book was presented by
Il
Dott. Nello Ajello
Journalist and Author |
"A marvelous book that takes us into a
world that is completely unknown to us westerners, the complex world of
the Ethiopian aristocracy of the 20s and 30s.",
Angelo Del Boca |
«This book by
Martha Nassibou is a touching document describing
a hardly known past. It is therefore more striking in its
tone and literary form, such that it could dislodge the film "La
vita è bella". This book, "Memorie di una principessa
etiope" should be read in
schools, the story should be told to today's Italian school
children of the age that Martha was in the book, so that they may
understand, even if in the intentionally chosen fairy-like
tone, what were fascism, colonialism and racism.»
, Nicola Lablanca
