Carlo Rossi E i Suoi "Diari" Inediti Sul 1831. [The Text of the Diary. Edited with an Introduction and Notes by Giovanni Canevazzi. With a Portrait.].

This volume presents the personal reflections of Carlo Rossi, an Italian military officer active during the turbulent period of the Risorgimento. The diary centers specifically on the events of 1831, a year marked by significant revolutionary uprisings in the Italian peninsula, particularly within the Duchy of Modena. By documenting these events from a personal perspective, the text provides a contemporary view of the political instability and military fervor that defined the early stages of Italy's movement toward unification.

The publication was edited by Giovanni Canevazzi, who sought to preserve and contextualize Rossi's manuscripts for historical study. Canevazzi provided scholarly apparatus, including an introduction and notes, to help the reader navigate the complexities of the 1831 unrest and the author's specific role in these affairs. The inclusion of a portrait serves to humanize the account, framing Rossi's diary not merely as a historical document, but as a direct testimony from a participant in the struggle for Italian sovereignty.
