Degli ultimi casi di Romagna by Massimo d' Azeglio
"Degli ultimi casi di Romagna" by Massimo d'Azeglio is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The text examines the political upheavals and social conditions in the Romagna region of Italy, particularly focusing on the nationalist revolts against papal and foreign rule. The likely topic centers on the challenges, failures, and broader implications of recent local insurrections for the Italian independence movement. This work appears to appeal to readers interested in
Italian history, politics, and the moral debates around revolution and governance. The opening of the book begins with a dedication to Cesare Balbo and immediately situates the narrative within the aftermath of the 1846 Rimini uprising. D'Azeglio provides a forthright critique of the revolt, arguing that such premature and fragmented insurrections are harmful rather than helpful to the larger cause of national independence. He emphasizes the importance of unity, carefully planned action, and moral responsibility—criticizing both the instigators for their recklessness and the papal government for its injustice and failure to enact impartial laws. The initial section is marked by a reflective, almost confessional tone, combining historical analysis with passionate appeals for truth, justice, and measured patriotism.
