Abstract

The Centre for the Advanced Study of Italian Society was created by Stuart Woolf at Reading University in 1966. It provided the institutional basis for close collaboration with Italian academics and politicians, many of whom participated in seminars. It attracted funding from Italy for research collaboration with Italian academics. The presence of the Centre led to donations from English antifascists of books and archives, and to the acquisition by the University Library of a major Italian private library on post-unity Italian history and culture.
