Abstract

In this paper, I am concerned with the interplay between what we can assume to have been fact, and what happens in the realm of memory, including imagined events and false memories. The specific event I shall discuss is the killing of 335 people hostages, or just people randomly picked off the street by the German occupying forces in Rome in 1944, as reprisal for a partisan attack which the British official record consistently calls a “bomb outrage” the day before, in which 32 German soldiers had been killed.
