Description

A fervent voice from the Italian Risorgimento rises through letters, sermons and personal reflections, offering a vivid portrait of a young patriot whose whole life was devoted to the dream of a truly free Italy. Shaped by a father who idolised the ancient Romans, he learned early that liberty must be defended with the courage of a lion, a conviction that steadied him against the oppressive forces of his day.

The narrative follows his restless university years, a daring confrontation with the authorities that led to exile, and a fateful meeting with fellow revolutionary Giuseppe Mazzini. From Florence’s literary salons to clandestine plots against the Grand Duchy of Tuscany, his relentless quest for a democratic nation unfolds with sharp wit and unflinching honesty. Listeners will feel the pulse of a restless era, where idealism clashed with power and the promise of a new Italy was whispered in every bold, defiant line.
