Storia degli Italiani, vol. 05 (di 15) by Cesare Cantù
"Storia degli Italiani, vol. 05 (di 15)" by Cesare Cantù is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the various periods of Italian history, focusing extensively on the medieval era and its contrasting aspects with modern society. Cantù delves into themes such as governance, societal structures, and the evolution of ideas throughout history, all framed within the context of the Italian cultural and political landscape. At thestart of this volume, Cantù introduces the medieval period by reflecting on the characteristics and perceptions of society during that time. He contrasts the values of the medieval populace, who prioritized their individual freedoms and local governance, with the emerging modern perspective, which often delegitimizes these past structures in favor of centralized authority. The narrative unfolds as he discusses the social dynamics of the era, detailing the relationship between rulers and subjects, and how historical figures like Odoacre and Theodoric shaped Italy's trajectory. Cantù emphasizes the importance of understanding history as a continuum from the medieval past to contemporary society, urging readers to appreciate the complexities of their national heritage.
