Specialist Notes

In this second edition, always published anonymously (like the first of 1801) in Milan, where the author directed the "Giornale Italiano", some particulars and contingent details fall out, still linked, in 1801, to the very recent revolutionary events, and republican intransigence weakens or disappears. Furthermore, events are added: "many of the same I learned later, and of them, the most important I added to those already narrated". The appendix, published in both the first and second editions, contains the fragments of six letters addressed to Vincenzo Russo, written by the author on the occasion of the "Project of Constitution" proposed by F.M. They pay. The fragments are particularly useful for knowing the climate in which the "Project" was drawn up, and the model of nation that the revolutionaries should have implemented. A forgery was published in Naples, which is distinguished by a smaller number of pages.
