In 1925 the Fascist dictatorship forced Gaetano Salvemini to leave Italy and begin a new life in exile. Salvemini understood he could find political and financial support in London to achieve two main aims: to live a decent life as an antifascist exile and fight the Fascist dictatorship from abroad. Thanks to a network encompassing intellectuals, academics, journalists, and politicians, London provided Salvemini with a platform for sharing antifascist stances outside Italy. This essay will develop research on this topic by taking into account Salvemini's conference speeches, articles, books, and essays written while in Britain, from 1925 to 1934. The corpus of the selected texts will show that Salvemini carefully singled out topics that were able to attract the attention of a foreign audience, particularly British public opinion. Therefore, the analysis of Salvemini's intellectual production during this period and the reaction of the press will contribute to cast a new light on his antifascist strategies; in other words, it will lead to a consideration of the extent to which being part of a British intellectual network transformed his approach to the antifascist struggle.

萨尔维米尼在伦敦的反法西斯流亡:吸引英国观众的注意力
1925年,法西斯独裁统治迫使加埃塔诺·萨尔韦米尼离开意大利,开始新的流亡生活。萨尔维米尼明白,他可以在伦敦找到政治和财政支持,以实现两个主要目标:作为反法西斯流亡者过上体面的生活,并与国外的法西斯独裁政权作斗争。感谢一个由知识分子、学者、记者和政治家组成的网络,伦敦为萨尔维米尼提供了一个在意大利境外分享反法西斯立场的平台。本文将通过考虑萨尔维米尼 1925 年至 1934 年在英国期间撰写的会议演讲、文章、书籍和论文来展开对此主题的研究。所选文本的语料库将表明,萨尔维米尼仔细挑选了能够吸引了外国观众尤其是英国舆论的关注。因此,对萨尔维米尼这一时期的思想生产和新闻界的反应进行分析,将有助于我们对他的反法西斯策略有新的认识;换句话说,这将导致人们思考作为英国知识分子网络的一部分在多大程度上改变了他的反法西斯斗争方式。
