Hello scottllm-ga,
The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) has a database
called The Collection of Laws for Electronic Access (CLEA) (
http://clea.wipo.int/clea/lpext.dll?f=templates&fn=main-h.htm&2.0 ).
It contains texts in English and other languages of intellectual
property laws, including Italy's copyright statute and other Italian
legal texts.
I am certainly not an Italian lawyer, but my impression is that this
is the primary statute you are looking for:
"IT099EN - Copyright, Law (Consolidation), 22/04/1941 (26/05/1997),
No. 633 (No. 154)- Law for the Protection of Copyright and Neighboring
Rights (Law No. 633 of April 22, 1941, as last amended by Decree Law
No. 154 of May 26, 1997)"
WIPO: CLEA

"Italy: Copyright, Law (Consolidation), 22/04/1941 (26/05/1997), No.
633 (No. 154) (IT_099) [Law No. 633 of April 22, 1941, as last amended
by Decree Law No. 154 of May 26, 1997. Law for the Protection of
Copyright and Neighboring Rights]

I hope that this information is helpful.
