Lungotevere Della Vittoria is the stretch of Lungotevere that links Piazzale Maresciallo Giardino to Piazza del Fante in Rome (Italy), in the Della Vittoria quarter.[1][2]
Lungotevere is an alley or boulevard running along the river Tiber within the city of Rome. The building of the Lungoteveres required the demolition of the former edifices along the river banks and the construction of retaining walls called muraglioni.
The Lungotevere is dedicated to the Italian victory in the World War I (the toponym was bestowed to the whole quarter); it was first established as per Governor resolution on June 12, 1939;[3] the year after it was suppressed and was established again as per City Council resolution on February 25, 1948.[4]
World War I, also known as the First World War or the Great War, was a global war originating in Europe that lasted from 28 July 1914 to 11 November 1918. Contemporaneously described as "the war to end all wars", it led to the mobilisation of more than 70 million military personnel, including 60 million Europeans, making it one of the largest wars in history. It is also one of the deadliest conflicts in history, with an estimated nine million combatants and seven million civilian deaths as a direct result of the war, while resulting genocides and the resulting 1918 influenza pandemic caused another 50 to 100 million deaths worldwide.
The boulevard hosts the museum of the Istituto Storico e di Cultura dell'Arma del Genio, whose edifice was built in 1940,[5] and the Associazione Fondo Alberto Moravia, established on December 16, 1991 in the house where the writer Alberto Moravia lived.[6]
Alberto Moravia was an Italian novelist and journalist. His novels explored matters of modern sexuality, social alienation and existentialism. Moravia is best known for his debut novel Gli indifferenti (1929) and for the anti-fascist novel Il Conformista, the basis for the film The Conformist (1970) directed by Bernardo Bertolucci. Other novels of his adapted for the cinema are Agostino, filmed with the same title by Mauro Bolognini in 1962; Il disprezzo, filmed by Jean-Luc Godard as Le Mépris ; La Noia (Boredom), filmed with that title by Damiano Damiani in 1963 and released in the US as The Empty Canvas in 1964 and La ciociara, filmed by Vittorio de Sica as Two Women (1960). Cedric Kahn's L'Ennui (1998) is another version of La Noia.
