Biographies & Memoirs

Weidenfeld & Nicolsson, 1993

The history of the Italian monarchy is the history of the four Savoyard kings who ruled between the unification of the nation in 1861 and the popular vote that inaugurated a republic in 1946. In this major new work of scholarship one of the world's leading historians of Italy provides the first authoritative account of the Italian monarchy and its impact on Italy's history during these critical eighty-five years.

Italy and Its Monarchy

Europe

Yale Univ Pr

First published in 1954, and now re-issued with a fresh preface, Cavour and Garibaldi remains the single most important contribution yet made by an English-speaking historian to the study of the Risorgimento. Devoted to seven crucial months in 1860, the work examines in detail the sequence of events between the Sicilian rebellion in April, and the absorption of all the south into the Italian kingdom of Victor Emmanuel in November. It shows, in the contrasting priorities of the two great leaders, the creative tensions that underlay the movement for Italian unification. Against Cavour's desire to extend to the rest of the peninsula the benefits of Piedmontese liberalism, the author juxtaposes Garibaldi's dream of a united Italy, achieved if necessary by force. The diplomat and political strategist is compared with the soldier and popular hero, and in the comparison it is Garibaldi who emerges as the realist, and Cavour as the inspired but dogmatic muddler.

Situata al centro del Mediterraneo, fra Oriente ed Occidente, fra l'Africa e il continente europeo, la Sicilia si è trovata coinvolta in tutti gli alterni conflitti della storia, così da sembrare quasi il cuore del mondo civilizzato. Della sua vicenda, Mack Smith ripercorre gli ultimi dieci secoli: dalla conquista araba a quella normanna, dal dominio aragonese a quello borbonico, dall'Unità all'autonomia regionale.
