  This is a critical anthology of extracts from Italian newspapers and an introduction to the workings of the Italian press. It should help the reader to identify, describe and analyze a range of texts that form the daily paper . The anthology includes cartoons as well as in-depth reports, crime stories and coverage of major political events from the death of Stalin to the scandals that brought down the First Republic. For students of Italian approaching the language through the country's media, this provides a primary text. Each extract is printed in Italian with notes, glosses and a critical introduction in English.
