Giuseppe Mazzini (1805 - 1872), nicknamed 'The Beating Heart of Italy', was an Italian politician, journalist and activist for the unification of Italy. His efforts helped bring about the independent and unified Italy in place of the several separate states, many dominated by foreign powers that existed until the 19th century. He also helped define the modern European movement for popular democracy in a republican state. Denis Mack Smith (*1920) is an English historian, specialising in the history of Italy from the Risorgimento onwards. He is best known for studies of Mazzini, Garibaldi and Cavour and of Mussolini, and for his single-volume 'Modern Italy: A Political History'. He was named Grand Official of the Order of Merit of the Italian Republic in 1996. VI + 302 pag. Size: 24cmx16cm. Artikel-Nr. 030008
