The essay aims to re-evaluate Giuseppe Terragni’s critical reception in the Italian architectural debate from his death in 1943 to the early 1950s through an extensive study of contemporary published material and documentation from several archival funds. Thus, some received notions around Terragni’s posthumous fortune can be reconsidered, such as his supposed disappearance from the architectural debate after the end of the war. Unpublished primary sources are instrumental in showing several unachieved attempts at writing and publishing monographs on the architect, revealing an interest that, albeit shared in principle, was far frombeing concordant: in the aftermath of the war, both ends of the political spectrum contended for the appropriation of Terragni’s figure and his legacy.
