3.0 out of 5 stars great graphics but historically extremely shortsighted !, 29 Jun 2005
By daniel tedesco (florence, italy) - See all my reviews
Originally a french guidebook, flawless in terms of look, paper quality, insets, just great about graphics, pictures and main monument diagrams, this english language edition (and I believe also the french original text) is extremely irritating for any (historically sensitive) italian (and not only italian) reader. In fact there is NO mention at all about the ethnically and intellectually important italian minority (which often in large coastal areas was a strong majority!) of regions like Istria and Dalmatia and important cities as Pola/Pula and Fiume/Rijeka, that lived in the country until the early 1950's. (Nowadays italian speakers hardly reach 1% of the total croatian population). The chapter about Pola/Pula is particularly irritating when, after ignoring that after 1956 the city had lost 95% (!!!) of its population because of the italians were forced into exile by the yugoslav titoist communist regime (any national dignity, any private property, any civil right were denied), the authors describing the city's history after the end of WWII just write "It quickly became a thriving center of industry and tourism..." when in fact Pola/Pula remained sadly depopulated, poor and sterile for years before a new flow of slavic immigrants were forced in from other regions of Yugoslavia, this process taking years and years. There is no mention whatsoever in the chapters concerning history about the tragic ethnic cleaning policy which brought to an almost total exile of the italian speaking community, the mass killings of anyone speaking italian (not just those linked with the previous italian fascist regime -which also did bad things to slavic nationals, but never anything in terms of ethnic mass killings-), and the horrible common practice of tiding long rows of people, taking them to the border of deep karstic holes in the middle of the countryside and then throwing them all inside, those cavities being tragically known by any good sense italian as FOIBE. Also the final rows of page 156 dedicated to history of the Istria region speak about the so called Pisino/Pazin people's deputies vote taken in 1943 as a democratic decision...and about very mysterious italian-yugoslav 1947 agreements, when in fact after WWII the whole region was very simply annexed by the yugoslav red army. That's all. There was never anything democratic about that. There was no people's choice. What I also mean is that reducing a region's history (aside from any personal/political view) like the one of Istria, from the collapse of the Venice Republic (1797) to the end of WWII i.e. 148 years in just 8 lines seems very shortsighted and inaccurate. Just too bad! Pity, being the book otherwise so nice and readable....
