Summary "Il secolo che muore, vol. I" by Francesco Domenico Guerrazzi is a historical novel written in the late 19th century. The work explores themes of political discontent and societal upheaval in Italy during a transformative period of its history, likely reflecting the author's own perspectives and experiences. The narrative captures the complexity of Italian identity and national sentiment during the time of state formation and consolidation, mirroring the turmoil and aspirations of the people. The opening of "Il secolo che muore" introduces the reader to the backdrop of Guerrazzi's reflections on the sociopolitical climate of his time, particularly the perceived decline of authority and the challenges facing the Italian state. Guerrazzi reflects on the state of the nation, voicing his concerns about the pitfalls of political governance and societal attitudes. Through a blend of historical analysis and literary imagination, he delineates the grievances against the established order, invoking a sense of urgency in the face of what he perceives as moral and national decay.
