L'Italia repubblicana di Tommaseo tra letteratura e politica

2020 - Editoriale Scientifica

151-186 p.

  • The essay reconstructs the presence and the role of Niccolò Tommaseo (1802-1874) in the Unification of Italy by examining the overall republican vision of Italy through his works, inspired by the ideas of liberal Catholicism. The paragraphs of the article highlight the cultural and political experiences he lived through, both in the years spent in exile in Paris and in the years before and after 1848. Particular attention is paid to the intellectual relationships that link Tommaseo to Florence, where he spends a good part of his life establishing himself as a writer and a patriot committed to national independence, always striving for a balanced relationship between Church and State even after the Unification.
