On Wednesday, November 12, there will be a presentation of the book by Riccardo Pasqualin "Antonio Maresio Bazzolle - Venetian Anti-Risorgimento" at Palazzo Crepadona.
Speakers include Gregorio Piaia, emeritus professor of the History of Philosophy at the University of Padua, and Paolo Conte, former director of the Historical Archive of Belluno Feltre and Cadore.
A fascinating and seemingly contradictory intellectual figure, the Belluno native Antonio Maresio Bazolle (1818-1896) navigated the 19th century with an independent and polemical gaze. Remembered primarily as a chronicler of the profound changes of his time, he was sometimes an uncomfortable observer and often dismissed as reactionary.
The newly printed volume dedicated to him reconstructs his profile, aiming to highlight his personality and composing the narrative of a reversed Risorgimento.
