Book excerpt: In the 19th century, both Italy and the US were young countries pursuing liberal nationalism even as unity was threatened by a recalcitrant southern population.

This book was released on 2013-11-11T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nel corso dell'Ottocento intellettuali, politici e combattenti per la libertà considerarono il Risorgimento un momento di importante trasformazione per le sorti del liberalismo e nella costruzione dello Stato-nazione. Tra costoro spiccavano di certo cittadini e rappresentanti degli Stati Uniti d'America che videro nel Risorgimento un'ideale continuazione del percorso liberal-repubblicano avviato con la guerra d'indipendenza americana. Questo volume prende in esame gli ultimi cinquant'anni del secolo nel contesto transnazionale, quando gli Stati Uniti rivolsero alle vicende italiane un'attenzione particolare che ha pochi eguali nella storia dei rapporti tra i due paesi. A seguire gli eventi e a coinvolgersi in essi non furono solo uomini di cultura e politici radicali ma anche gli apparati del governo federale e gli stessi funzionari di stanza in Europa. Il sacrificio di tanta gente comune insieme alle gesta di Garibaldi e alle sottigliezze di Cavour, attirarono un interesse che, come scrisse un diplomatico al culmine dell'esperienza della Repubblica romana del 1849, non consentiva di “rimanere spettatori indifferenti di fronte a una simile lotta”.

Download or read book Le relazioni tra Stati Uniti e Italia nel periodo di Roma capitale written by Aa.Vv. and published by Gangemi Editore spa. This book was released on 2011-11-10T00:00:00+01:00 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Questo è il terzo volume di un lavoro di ricerca collettiva iniziata otto anni fa dal Centro di Studi Americani. Dopo la pubblicazione dei volumi relativi alla Repubblica Romana e all'Unità d'Italia si presenta qui una collezione di saggi sugli Stati Uniti e la questione romana. Lo scopo è ancora una volta quello di analizzare le reazioni statunitensi alle profonde trasformazioni che interessavano la penisola nel secondo Ottocento, focalizzando l'attenzione sugli anni immediatamente precedenti ed immediatamente successivi alla Breccia di Porta Pia. L'argomento non è ignoto alla storiografia, ma ha ricevuto una trattazione limitata, soprattutto dopo le pubblicazioni, ormai lontane nel tempo, di Howard R. Marraro e Leo F. Stock negli Stati Uniti e di Giorgio Spini in Italia. Quello attuale è perciò il primo tentativo dopo decenni di riprendere in considerazione tale tematica, e di affrontarla sotto prospettive nuove mantenendo al centro del lavoro la discussione nazionale e internazionale su Roma capitale. Il volume d'altronde non mira a definire tanto la temperie culturale negli Stati Uniti, quanto a capire come essa abbia ispirato una serie di iniziative diplomatiche e politiche: dal sostegno, neanche troppo velato, alla fase finale del nostro Risorgimento al riconoscimento di Roma capitale italiana, nonostante le proteste cattoliche. Come rilevano alcuni dei contributi, il discorso sull'Italia e su Roma era a volte uno specchio per parlare di questioni interne alla nazione divisa in due dalla guerra e dalla ricostruzione che ne seguì. Ancora una volta ci si è affidati alle fonti archivistiche cercando comunque di tenere presente un quadro più vasto dei rapporti diplomatici o religiosi. Per questo il presente volume fonde storia e letteratura e non disdegna il confronto con altre forme di espressione in modo di rendere meglio conto dell'atmosfera culturale negli Stati Uniti di quegli anni. Il volume è a cura di Daniele Fiorentino e Matteo Sanfilippo.

Download or read book George P. Marsh Correspondence written by George Perkins Marsh and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: He applied science to life, not with the disinterested precision of a scientist, but with the aims and methods of a humanist. After 1861 he represented the United States at the Court of Savoy, in the critical years in which Italy was built, and the United States reshaped along modern lines. From his perspective, he described prominent Italian contemporaries and their relations with the United States and his opinion could not be ignored by the Department of State. The hero of the Marsh reports was Giuseppe Garibaldi; the "devil", Napoleon III. His luminous exposition, with a clear and fresh language, revealed many aspects of his historical times and of the images of Italy, which were frequently corroborated by the diaries of American tourists and writers doing their "Grand Tour": far from being a modern country, Italy appeared a wonderful destination for traveling, the land of Dante, Machiavelli, Petrarca.

Download or read book The Global Lincoln written by Richard Carwardine and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-02-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perhaps more than any other American, Abraham Lincoln has become a global figure, one who spoke--and continues to speak--to people across the world. Karl Marx judged Lincoln "the single-minded son of the working class"; Tolstoy reported his fame in the Caucasus; Tomas Masaryk, the first president of Czechoslovakia, drew strength as "the Lincoln of Central Europe"; racially-mixed, republican "Lincoln brigades" fought in the Spanish Civil War; and, more recently, statesmen ranging from Gordon Brown to Pervez Musharraf to Barack Obama have invoked Lincoln in support of their respective agendas. This fascinating volume brings together leading historians from around the world to explore Lincoln's international legacy. The authors examine the meaning and image of Lincoln in many places and across continents, ranging from Germany to Japan, India to Ireland, Africa and Asia to Argentina and the American South. The book reveals that at the heart of Lincoln's global celebrity were his political principles, his record of successful executive leadership in wartime, his role as the "Great Emancipator," and his resolute defense of popular government. Yet the "Global Lincoln" has been a malleable and protean figure, one who is forever being redefined to meet the needs of those who invoke him. The first study of Lincoln's global legacy, this book tells the unknown and remarkable story of the world-wide impact of one of America's great presidents.

Download or read book Five Lectures on the American Civil War, 1861–1865 written by Raimondo Luraghi and published by John Cabot University Press. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The product of over thirty years of research on the American Civil War by Italy’s most renowned authority on the subject, this study synthetically analyzes the great drama that from 1861 to 1865 devastated the United States and gave life to the modern American nation. The book also highlights how the Civil War was the first conflict of the industrial age and an often neglected premonition of the two great world wars that shook the world in the twentieth century. The short essays presented here are the texts of five lectures delivered several years ago at the Istituto Italiano di Studi Filosofici in Naples and published in Italy in 1997.

Download or read book Transatlantic Conversations written by Beth L. Lueck and published by University of New Hampshire Press. This book was released on 2016-12-06 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique interdisciplinary essay collection offers a fresh perspective on the active involvement of American women authors in the nineteenth-century transatlantic world. Internationally diverse contributors explore topics ranging from women's social and political mobility to their authorship and activism. While a number of essays focus on such well-known writers as Margaret Fuller, Catharine Maria Sedgwick, Harriet Beecher Stowe, George Eliot, Louisa May Alcott, and Charlotte Perkins Gilman, other, perhaps lesser-known authors are also included, such as E. D. E. N. Southworth, Elizabeth Stuart Phelps, Elizabeth Peabody, Jeannette Hart, and Laura Richards. These essays show the spectrum of interests and activities in which nineteenth-century women were involved as they moved, geographically and metaphorically, toward gaining their independence and the right to control their lives. Traveling far and wide - to Italy, France, Great Britain, and the Bahamas - these writers came into contact with realities far different from their own. On topics ranging from homeopathy and literary endeavors to politics and revolution, they conversed with others, reaching and inspiring transnational audiences with their words and deeds, and creating a space for self-expression in the rapidly changing transatlantic world.

Download or read book The 1891 New Orleans Lynchings and U.S.-Italian Relations written by Marco Rimanelli and published by Peter Lang Incorporated, International Academic Publishers. This book was released on 1992 with total page 448 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the centenary of the 1891 New Orleans Crisis and U.S.-Italian war-scare, this authoritative study by Marco Rimanelli and Sheryl L. Postman represents the latest, and most complete and objective socio-politico-literary study of that period. Although long forgotten, this key domestic and diplomatic crisis exposed in a flash of violence all the simmering anti-Italian racial tensions rocking New Orleans and America. Ethnic hostility toward southern Italian immigration and Mafia criminality exploded in New Orleans with the murder of Police Chief D.C. Hennessy and the lynching by a 20,000-strong mob of 11 imprisoned Italians. Far from being spontaneous, the lynching was secretly engineered by Lousiana's establishment in a strategy to exterminate the Mafia, expropriate the rich Italian tropical fruit trade with Central America, and especially, cajole the independent-minded Italians into joining the White Supremacist front, which disenfranchised Louisiana's Blacks in 1898. Nationally, the lynching split Americans between advocates and opposers of popular justice and anti-immigration laws. Even more importantly, the New Orleans Lynchings provoked a major international crisis and war-scare with Italy in 1891-92, while promoting at home the long awaited nationalistic Reunification of North and South against foreign foes. The U.S. government's refusal to pay reparations until 1892 led Italy to break diplomatic relations, while both governments were trapped in a rigid international confrontation by their own domestic political fragility and collapsing electoral support. Finally America's own defenselessness against Italy's navy (The world's third largest) forced the U.S. to build a new modern navy, which first propelled them to victory in the 1898 Spanish-American War, and later on to global Superpowership.

Download or read book Blurred Nationalities across the North Atlantic written by Luca Codignola and published by University of Toronto Press. This book was released on 2019-01-02 with total page 614 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before the mid-nineteenth century, thousands of people were frequently moving between North America – specifically, the United States and British North America – and Leghorn, Genoa, Naples, Rome, Sicily, Piedmont, Lombardy, Venice, and Trieste. Predominantly traders, sailors, transient workers, Catholic priests, and seminarians, this group relied on the exchange of goods across the Atlantic to solidify transatlantic relations; during this period, stories about the New World passed between travellers through word of mouth and letter writing. Blurred Nationalities across the North Atlantic challenges the idea that national origin – for instance, Italianness – constitutes the only significant feature of a group’s identity, revealing instead the multifaceted personalities of the people involved in these exchanges.

Download or read book A Bridge Across the Ocean written by Luca Castagna and published by CUA Press. This book was released on 2014 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Bridge across the Ocean focuses on the relations between the United States and the Holy See from the First World War to the eve of the Second, through the combination of American, Italian, and Vatican sources. More than an overall picture of the American and Vatican foreign policy during the first half of the twentieth century, the book analyzes the U.S.-Vatican rapprochement in a multifaceted way, considering both the international and the internal sphere. A Bridge across the Ocean discusses the spread of anti-Catholicism in the United States during the first two decades of the twentieth century, and its repercussions on the American administrations' behavior during and after the Versailles Conference, together with the changes that occurred in the Holy See's attitude toward the American church and the White House after the election of Pope Pius XI. Luca Castagna explores the convergence of the New Deal legislation with the church's social thought, and demonstrates how the partial U.S.-Vatican rapprochement in 1939 resulted from Roosevelt and Pacelli's common aim to cooperate, as two of the most important and global moral powers in the struggle against Nazi-fascism.
