The Marsica earthquake of January 13, 1915, is one of the most disastrous in Italy’s history. It occurred in a particularly unique context, namely while Europe was engulfed in war and Italy was on the brink of joining it. This led to a situation where one emergency was layered on top of another, necessitating a series of measures to maintain public order. This paper examines the organization and decisions made by the state apparatus in response to the earthquake and to preserve national spirit.

Abstract
The Marsica earthquake of January 13, 1915, is one of the most disastrous in Italy’s history. It occurred in a particularly unique context, namely while Europe was engulfed in war and Italy was on the brink of joining it. This led to a situation where one emergency was layered on top of another, necessitating a series of measures to maintain public order. This paper examines the organization and decisions made by the state apparatus in response to the earthquake and to preserve national spirit.File in questo prodotto:
