Benedetto Croce

    25 février 1866 – 20 novembre 1952

    Ce penseur italien a exploré un large éventail de sujets philosophiques, avec un profond intérêt pour la philosophie de l'histoire et l'esthétique. Son œuvre reflète un parcours personnel d'une éducation catholique stricte à l'athéisme, façonnant sa vision du monde. Malgré les tragédies personnelles et les bouleversements politiques, il s'est consacré à ses recherches intellectuelles avec un engagement inébranlable. Sa critique à vie de la participation de l'Italie à la guerre et son opposition ouverte au fascisme soulignent son intégrité morale.

      Stando ai sondaggi per il 150° anniversario dell'Unità nazionale, due italiani su tre sono orgoliosi di essere tali. Quando però si tratta di spiegare perché, tutto si fa più complicato. «Cosa ci tiene insieme?» è la domanda che meno invecchia, in questo Stato ancora giovane. Il rischio è quello di aggirarsi, in cerca di risposte, tra i monumenti e gli stereotipi. Qui, invece, sono raccolte voci: grandi scrittori, giornalisti, intelletuali impegnati a diventare o ri-diventare italiani. A malincuore, con allegria, con rabbia, con indignazione, con stupore, con disincanto. A volte, perfino con ottimismo. Tutto entra in gioco: i momenti drammatici o felici della storia unitaria; la memoria e le memorie; i volti e le maschere, da Arlecchino a don Abbondio; i colori della vita di ogni giorno. Come in un'inchiesta a ritroso, le ipotesi e gli indizi sul tavolo sono molti. Per chi domanda: «Scusi, lei si sente italiano?», sono pronte nuove risposte. Razionali e sentimentali insieme. Cercate lontano, ma proiettate al futuro.
