The article traces the story of Maria Pasquinelli, an atypical fascist, teacher in the Italian schools of Spalato and murderer of the English general Robert De Winton. Through the analysis of her almost unexplored personal papers and Allies documentation, the contribution focuses on her activity of collecting documentation on the Foibe in autumn 1943, her connections to the creation of an anti-Yugoslav national bloc and the omissions that shouldered the murder she was guilty of. The biographical perspective also makes it possible to delve into the main pieces of the composite mosaic of the Upper Adriatic area, where much of his life unfolded.

Keywords: fascist mysticism, Italian eastern border, foibe, anti-Yugoslav alliance, allied intelligence, Treaty of Paris
