Department of Spanish and Italian Studies The University of British Columbia Vancouver 8, Canada Dat.e August 18, 1966. Ii Abstract Vincenzo Cuoco was one of the first political realists of Italy. Living at Naples at the arrival of the French Army, he became accidently involved with the Neapolitan Revolution of 1799• Although he was a declared Xenophobe- . and a misogallic he was also an ardent patriot trying to respect the existing polit• ical order. Informed of the advance of the reaction• ary army toward Naples he had the occasion to foil a coup to overthrow the government of the young Repub• lic, for which the fugitive Bourbon King placed him on the list of revolutionaries to be arrested. With the fall of the Republic in June 1799, he was arrested and sentenced to exile, the first period of which he spent at Marselles. With the victory of Marengo in 1800, he followed the Italian exiles to Milan. There, after a brief period of hardship, he published his Sagglo on the Revolution of Naples and with it gained fame and the recognition of the Rep• ublican government. His fame as a political writer did not derive from his artistic ability, but from his shrewd analysis of people and governments. His mind had been formed at Naples under the influence iii of the French Enlightenment, but as an admirer of Machievelli and a student of Vico, he retained a detached aversion for transalpine rationalism. So strong was his sense of talianism that while the Parthenopean was still in power he dared to critic• ize its democratic government as too French and, therefore, detached from Italian needs. This crit• icism is found in six letters (Frammenti) which he wrote to his friend V. Russo and included in an appendix to his major essay. In the Saggio storico sulla rivoluzione napo- letana del '99 he reviwed "from memory" the circum• stances surrounding the Revolution. He gave an objec• tive account oC the socio-economic conditions of the Neapolitan Kingdom, the political obtuseness of the Monarchy and the events of the Revolutionise analyzed in great detail the failure of the Republican govern• ment which he attributed mainly to its alienation from the people. This want of popular spirit for whifoh he called the Revolution "passive" had doomed the Republic from its inception. The work contained,also, pertinent remarks on legislation,economics,and custom's. iv At Milan (1800-1806) he edited the official newspaper, the Giornale Itallano. composed a brief work on statistics and wrote an epistolary novel, Platone in Italia. (1804-6). In this last work he describes an imaginary voyage of Plato through Southern Italy, presenting Vico's Etruscan thesis of an Italic culture preceding that of the Greeks. His aim, which became almost an obsession, was to instill in his countrymen a renewed pride in the Italian past. In 1806, with the return of the French to Naples he ended his exile and was appointed by the new government to several important posts. His duties were many and varied, ranging from the drafting of economic reforms to framing a new system of education, from the presidency of Mollse to the directorship of the Royal Treasury. The fall of Napoleon in 1815 ended his active life. A mental disorder,already foreshadowed earlier, developed into lunacy. He lived on in a state of ap• athy,and died on December fourteenth 1823,without 1 knowing how much he had contributed to the rising tide of national feeling throughout Italy.

Aknowledgment I must thank Dr.D.Klang for introducing me to the works of Vincenzo Cuoco. For the preparation of this thesis I am most indebted to Dr. Rachel Giese whose untiring assistance has been indispen• sable. Without her guidance my appreciation for this writer would have been superficial indeed. " Non vi e che un solo mezzo per divenir ragionevole... cessare di essere contempora- nei; obliare per un istante 1» awenimento di cui siamo parte ... per rammentar cio che lo ha preceduto e preve- der cid che ne deve seguire. " V.Cuoco.Soritti Varl.I.p.103. " Ne la natura, ne l'educazione mi avean destinato ad essere uo&o di lettere."(l) So Vincenzo Cuoco wrote to Count Giovanni Battlsta Giovio, who had highly prai• sed his Saggio storico sulla rivoluzione napoletana del'99 . Bather, it was, as Cuoco confided to another correspondent," un awenimento che non si potea ne pre- vedere n£ evitare..." that had made him become a wri• ter. (2) In yet another letter, to the Piedmontese Robert!, he presented his Saggio as the work of a man who, far from being a writer, was merely a patriot who would gladly have died for liberty but was now constrai• ned by exile to search within his memory for those facts which might give him and his country the hope of a better order.

    Resistance to Institutions and Cultural Distance: Brigandage in Post

    Resistance to Institutions and Cultural Distance Brigandage in Post-Unification Italy* Giampaolo Lecce Laura Ogliari Tommaso Orlando § This version: July 2018 Abstract We study how cultural distance affects the rejection of imposed institutions. To do so, we exploit the transplantation of Piedmontese institutions on Southern Italy that oc- curred during the Italian unification. We assemble a novel and unique dataset containing municipal-level information on episodes of brigandage, a form of violent uprising against the unitary government. We use the geographic distance from local settlements of Pied- montese descent as a proxy for the cultural distance between each municipality and the new rulers. We find that cultural distance from the origins of the transplanted institutions is significantly associated with more intense resistance to these institutions. We provide evidence that our results are partially explained by a clash between the content of the Piedmontese institutions and local social norms. Our findings further suggest that the re- jection of transplanted institutions may have a long-lasting effect on political participation.

  • Passive Revolution: a Universal Concept with Geographical Seats

    Passive Revolution: a Universal Concept with Geographical Seats

    1 Passive revolution: A universal concept with geographical seats Abstract In this article, I argue that Antonio Gramsci’s concept of passive revolution makes a foundational contribution to International Relations (IR), yet has been relatively under appreciated by the broader discipline. Within the Historical Sociology of International Relations, uneven and combined development has recently been postulated as a key trans-historical law that provides a social theory of the ‘international’. Drawing from, but moving beyond these debates, I will argue that passive revolution is a key conditioning factor of capitalist modernity. I will demonstrate how the concept of passive revolution is the element that explains the connection between the universal process of uneven development and the manner in which specific combinations occur within the capitalist era as geo- political pressures, in tandem with domestic social forces become internalised into geographically specific state forms. It therefore offers a corrective to the frequently aspatial view that is found in much of the literature in IR regarding uneven and combined development. Additionally, passive revolution provides a more politicised understanding of the present as well as an important theoretical lesson in relation to what needs to be done to affect alternative trajectories of development. Key words Gramsci, passive revolution, uneven development, capitalism, revolution 2 Introduction The title of this article takes its cue from a remark by Antonio Gramsci in the Prison Notebooks

The European conflict, he argued, was in fact a civil war, ‘between the partizans of the antient, civil, moral, and political order of Europe against a sect of ambitious and fanatical atheists which means to change them all.’ The Jacobinism, he insisted, was a ‘sect aiming at universal empire’.1 Burke was not alone: John Robison, a Scottish natural philosopher, and the former Jesuit, Augustin de Barruel, both published works in 1797 arguing that the revolution was an international conspiracy of freemasons and freethinkers. For Barruel, Jacobinism was nothing less than Freemasonry finally revealing its ultimate, dark purpose. Cranky though such claims now appear, in the late 1790s for Europeans bending before the roar of revolution and war, they offered an all- embracing explanation for the crisis.2 Yet Barruel, Burke and Robison used the term ‘Jacobin’ very loosely, reinforcing a conservative tendency to define any dissent as dangerous. Almost always inaccurate, such a use of the label probably seemed more plausible because ‘Jacobinism’ rapidly changed in France itself, as the Revolution rattled forward on its breakneck course.

By feminization, this dissertation refers both to the gradual assumption of the majority of elementary teaching positions by women and to a transformation in the nature of the position itself. Through an examination of educational periodicals, school records, government inquests, and accounts by teachers and pedagogical theorists, it argues that rather than the unintended consequence of economic constraints or shifting labor patterns, feminization was fundamentally connected to larger processes of centralization and modernization in the Italian school system. Following an introductory chapter outlining the major national, religious, and gender debates of ii the Unification era, the second chapter of the dissertation argues that the figure of the female elementary teacher became embroiled in the contest between local and national interests, furthering the drive toward centralization.

    THE HISTORY OF NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE JOHN GIBSON LOCKHART CHAPTER I BIRTH AND PARENTAGE OF NAPOLEON BUONAPARTE—HIS EDUCATION AT BRIENNE AND AT PARIS—HIS CHARACTER AT THIS PERIOD—HIS POLITICAL PREDILECTIONS—HE ENTERS THE ARMY AS SECOND LIEUTENANT OF ARTILLERY—HIS FIRST MILITARY SERVICE IN CORSICA IN 1793. Napoleon Buonaparte was born at Ajaccio on the 15th of August, 1769. The family had been of some distinction, during the middle ages, in Italy; whence his branch of it removed to Corsica, in the troubled times of the Guelphs and Gibellines. They were always considered as belonging to the gentry of the island. Charles, the father of Napoleon, an advocate of considerable reputation, married his mother, Letitia Ramolini, a young woman eminent for beauty and for strength of mind, during the civil war— when the Corsicans, under Paoli, were struggling to avoid the domination of the French. The advocate had espoused the popular side in that contest, and his lovely and high-spirited wife used to attend him through the toils and dangers of his mountain campaigns. Upon the termination of the war, he would have exiled himself along with Paoli; but his relations dissuaded him from this step, and he was afterwards reconciled to the conquering party, and protected and patronised by the French governor of Corsica, the Count de Marbœuff. It is said that Letitia had attended mass on the morning of the 15th of August; and, being seized suddenly on her return, gave birth to the future hero of his age, on a temporary couch covered with tapestry, representing the heroes of the Iliad.

    Sir William Hamilton KB, PC, FRS, FRSE (13 December 1730 – 6 April 1803)

    Sir William Hamilton KB, PC, FRS, FRSE (13 December 1730 – 6 April 1803) Married Emma Hart (Lyon) at St Marylebone Parish Church on 6 September 1791 Sir William Hamilton was a Scottish diplomat, antiquarian, archaeologist and vulcanologist. After a short period as a Member of Parliament, he served as British Ambassador to the Kingdom of Naples from 1764 to 1800. He studied the volcanoes Vesuvius and Etna, becoming a Fellow of the Royal Society and recipient of the Copley Medal. His second wife was Emma Hamilton, famed as Horatio Nelson's mistress. Hamilton was born on 13 December 1730 (or 12 January 1731) in either London or at Park Place, Berkshire, the fourth son of Lord Archibald Hamilton, governor of Jamaica and seventh son of the 3rd Duchess of Hamilton, and Lady Jane Hamilton, daughter of James Hamilton, 6th Earl of Abercorn. His mother was a favourite, and possibly a mistress, of the Prince of Wales and William grew up with his son George III, who would call him his "foster brother". At age nine, he went to Westminster School, where he made lifelong friends of Frederick Hervey and David Murray. Hamilton used to say that he was born with an ancient name and a thousand pounds; as a younger son he would have to make his own way in life. So, six weeks after his sixteenth birthday, he was commissioned into the 3rd Foot Guards as an ensign. He spent some time with the regiment in the Netherlands, and advanced to lieutenant in 1753. In September 1757 he was present as aide-de-camp to General Henry Seymour Conway at the abortive attack on Rochefort.

Our thoughts and prayers FROM POPE FRANCIS are with Don Romagnuolo, his family, friends and brethren, as well as the parishioners at Casamari. Requiescat in pace. NEW BLESSEDS OF CASAMARI Dear brothers and sisters, On April 17 in the Abbey of Casamari, Simeon Cardon and five companion martyrs, Cistercian monks of that Ab- bey, were proclaimed Blessed. In 1799, when French soldiers with- drawing from Naples sacked churches and monasteries, these meek disciples of Christ resisted with heroic courage, unto death, to defend the Eucharist from desecration. May their example spur us to a greater commitment of fidelity to God, even capable of transforming society and making it more just and fraternal. A round of applause for the new Blesseds! During the French invasion of the Kingdom of Naples in 1798, Napoleon’s Grande Armée installed the short-lived and widely unpopular Parthenopean Republic, a treacherous Franco- Jacobin satellite state propped up with French bayonets. Though Sicily remained in control of the Bourbons, the brutal conquest of the Neapolitan portion of the Kingdom was violent and bloody, and as so often is the case with anti-Bourbon his- torians, the abominable crimes of the Republic receive little to no attention in comparison to the loyalists’ reprisals. Among the many atrocities committed by the so-called “enlightened” conquerors, was the massacre of six Cistercian friars on May 13, 1799 at the Gothic Abbey of Casamari, bor- dering the Papal States.
