| Summary | "Storia delle Repubbliche Italiane dei secoli di mezzo, v. 12 (of 16)" by Sismondi is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This volume focuses on the political and social conditions of Italy during the 15th century, examining the decline of Italian independence and the rise of foreign invasions that devastated the region. It highlights the intricate relationship between governance, civil liberties, and the impact of external pressures on the Italian states. The opening of the book sets the stage for a deep exploration of the transformations that Italy underwent during the 15th century, a time characterized by internal strife and external aggression. Sismondi introduces the context of Italian independence before the chaos of ongoing wars that led to widespread suffering and a loss of civil liberties. He discusses the interplay of various Italian states and their collective weakening in the face of foreign powers, emphasizing the failure of these states to unite and defend their sovereignty. This opening portion lays a foundation that suggests a comprehensive examination of the causes of Italy’s decline and the significant implications these events had for its future.
