Ergebnis für "Edda" in Biografien & Erinnerungen

Edda Mussolini was Benito's favourite daughter: spoilt, venal, uneducated but clever, faithless but flamboyant, a brilliant diplomat, wild but brave and ultimately strong and loyal. She was her father's confidante during the 20 years of Fascist rule, acting as envoy to both Germany and Britain, and playing a part in steering Italy to join forces with Hitler. From her early 20s, she was effectively first lady of Italy. She married Galeazzo Ciano, who would become the youngest foreign secretary in Italian history.

Fu per un ventennio una delle donne piú potenti d’Europa, o per questo almeno passò, circonfusa da un’aura di leggenda che non l’abbandonò mai. Era la figlia del dittatore d’Italia: ne fu sempre consapevole anche se talvolta non a suo agio nel ruolo. Ma alla fine del 1943, Edda Ciano Mussolini era una donna disperata, in fuga, inseguita dai nazisti e aiutata da un passato amante che sarà tra i fondatori della moda Made in Italy.
