| Summary |
"L'Italia nel 1898 (Tumulti e reazione)" by Napoleone Colajanni is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book examines the social and political unrest in Italy during a tumultuous time, focusing particularly on the events that transpired in the spring of 1898. Colajanni aims to analyze the causes and implications of the protests and riots that arose due to economic hardship, governmental failures, and a push for political reform. The opening of the work sets the stage for an exploration of the broader context of Italy’s social struggle at the time. The author reflects on previous revolutions, notably the failures of 1848, and introduces the idea that Italy is in a state of delayed development compared to other nations, with manifest consequences for its people. Colajanni highlights the significance of the events unfolding in the spring of 1898, particularly the uprisings ignited by hunger and economic distress, culminating in violent confrontations with authorities in cities like Milan. He expresses concern over the ruthless governmental reactions to these outbursts and emphasizes the urgent need for reform to address the underlying issues facing the country.
