At first, it was the symbol of the Fascist Revolution, Caesar being the key figure. Later, along the years of consensus, Augustus, the appeaser, was privileged. To that period belongs the identification between August, the founder of the ancient empire, with Mussolini, the founder of the new empire. Finally, in the late 1930s, the celebration of the new empire put off the old one. This article reviews the traces of those three periods in present Rome. La antigua Roma, que en el Risorgimento había servido para cimentar la precaria unidad nacional, cumplió varias funciones en el régimen fascista. Primero fue el símbolo de la revolución fascista, el punto de partida hacia el futuro, y Julio César fue la figura clave. Luego, en los años del consenso, fue Augusto, el pacificador, fue la figura destacada. A ese momento corresponde la identificación de Augusto, fundador del antiguo imperio, con Mussolini, fundador del nuevo imperio. Finalmente, a fines de la década de 1930, la celebración del antiguo imperio quedó postergada por la celebración del nuevo. Este trabajo recorre los rastros de esas tres fases en la Roma actual. application/pdf https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/AcHAM/article/view/1071 10.34096/aciham.v10.1071 spa Universidad de Buenos Aires, Facultad de Filosofía y Letras https://revistascientificas.filo.uba.ar/index.php/AcHAM/article/view/1071/1045 Actas y comunicaciones del Instituto de Historia Antigua y Medieval; Vol. 10 (2014); 72-87 1669-7286 August Rome Mussolini fascism Augusto Roma Mussolini fascismo Augustus and Mussolini: the presence of ancient Rome in fascist Rome Augusto y Mussolini: la presencia de la antigua Roma en la Roma Fascista info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://repositoriouba.sisbi.uba.ar/gsdl/cgi-bin/library.cgi?a=d&c=medieval&d=1071_oai
