Anticlerical Tendencies Among Friulian-Canadian Antifascists

Abstract

Anticlerical Tendencies Among Friulian-Canadian Antifascists

The Friulian antifascists in Canada during the 1920s-1930s displayed strong anticlerical leanings, because of the political ideologies that they espoused, or as a result of personal experiences. Many were also idealistic proponents of social justice. The evidence presented here is from their direct testimony (interviews, letters), information provided by family members, and their death notices published in local newspapers.

Le tendenze anticlericali degli antifascisti friulano-canadesi

Gli antifascisti friulani in Canada negli anni Venti e Trenta tendevano ad essere fortemente anticlericali, a causa delle ideologie politiche o delle esperienze personali. Molti erano anche fautori idealisti di giustizia sociale. Le prove presentate in questa sede derivano dalla loro testimonianza diretta (interviste, lettere), dai dati forniti dalle famiglie e dai necrologi apparsi sui giornali locali.
