El mito de Garibaldi en las Américas

Abstract

In the present work he makes an approach to Garibaldi from whom the myth had already spread from Europe to the Americas when he was still alive, placing it, surprisingly for many Italians and Frenchmen of the time, together with the greatest heroes of the independence and the American libertas. Many factors favored the progressive elaboration of the various ideological and political forms of the Garibaldi myth and its uses in the historical specificity of the American continent, analyzed in the pondered and enlightening essay on comparative history made by Pietro Rinaldo Fanesi.
