It concludes with the contribution of this article on Franco Di Fede Torre Faro and Cape Pelorus. This article has been divided into parts and can be read in full in previous posts.
Following the historical event of the landing at Marsala (TP) 's May 11, 1860 the Mille finding the go-ahead, left for Salemi (TP), where Garibaldi declare a proclamation to assume the dictatorship 's Island with full civil and military powers in the name of Vittorio Emanuele II of Savoy .
Then when Garibaldi the , after covering the "Via Sacra" using elders as essential class of nobles in the Sicilian countryside of Sicily, with the bulk of his armies of legionaries red shirt came in front of the old medieval Tower and Fortress English Torre Faro, had recently decreed that already in Sicily were abolished the title of "Excellency " and no man turned to another man could no longer contact with the expression "kiss hands .
These were among the first few measures of innovative new work of political events for this city of Nice, in whose mind wrote Giuseppe Guerzoni, Garibaldi Journal and future professor of Italian literature, stood "the courage and goodness," and that was a great defender of freedom of the people against the unjust oppressors.
not it? The posters are blatantly favored in every way on his contemporaries, which instead have a delicate relationship with the events in their present, and stands out among the many privileges that are more free to decide any diversion in singing the praises of those who want or not bow down in deference, as a former slave " Aleìptes" of classical Greece in the bathroom while the master greasy. Strong statement of our principle, which completely excludes the key apologetics, the cult of personality and any blatant hypocrite vassallesco tribute, we take the free license estollere this Knight-errant without blemish and without fear , which we must recognize the necessary licenses on charisma and a terrific and unique among the range of characters who worked for the ' Italy: the to excellence in the command of a fearless Leader who did not disdain to throw boldly, weapon in hand, into the fray where the battle raged, they told him that his lifestyle was that a generous soldier devoted to his country, who always lived with the idea of \u200b\u200bmilitary honor, justice and honesty and wearing dashed the will of its businesses: the scars contained a fight between the other on the battlefield. In 1860 nice and firm when he appeared in Sicily was not the legendary Garibaldi , but had little or nothing to be corrected, because they already had that wealth of experience, education and military art. With his eccentric clothing: red shirt, neckerchief, poncho and hat, and had not worn gold braid was not for this less of the chosen General out by institutes and academies loads conferred decorations. Out of all the hagiographic representation of his figure alone shines its own light and do not need our halo of glory to be praised in these pages our modest brief. As is well known become a real Institution National admired and revered by the masses and not just a celebrity recognized and appreciated throughout the world as a hero of romance.
Apart from anything else, though, and believe in the most dispassionate, we do not know if all those Insurgents Sicilians who had joined with impetus and momentum to the patriotic Brothers Garibaldini the continent, were aware of Santa Cause they were going to achieve with its own pure faith or belief or that were used as a means flattered by big promises of work, equality and freedom. But the facts that were glorious and magnanimous, sure thing is that it was a walk through the fields for all men in war, in fact, fell in combat on both sides people who spoke the same language: "The Idiom Gentile sounding and pure (Alfieri) and belonged to the same country rich ancient traditions. We are not able to say even if at the end of secular shifts in expectations for loan and loan for use of Bella Island , beloved and desired as a lustful odalisque, as before when all was fatally in the year of grace 1861 went to preserve the last of a long list the elect company of suitors who had preceded him and cut his target to end: the Allobrogia, Augusta a person of the monarch who lived in the region of Piedmont and Italian Savoia, HRH Vittorio Emanuele II of Savoy .
But sure thing is known, however it happened, was that instead Sicilian peasants were never divided the public lands of arable land as well as ostentatiously promised by the new rulers, semplicemente or a shaded area will appear so realistic that the latter are humble people were taking the assumed di assegnargliele.
For a human condition that offense will be added together with another harsh reality: they were illiterate and held in awe by past the Bourbon monarchy , illiterate and in awe still tend to be bound by the new Monarchy Savoy to the threshold of the First World War. A and munificent those early pronouncements by the General of General so steeped in high nobility as human abstract, in turn, never take practical steps for those reasons, more practical, dealing with the poor living conditions of the class of workers belonging to the poorest and neediest. Ah want to shout justice without voice! At this point the people Rustico di Sicilia, supremely represented by a farmhand, had no hope of anything good from the future because he felt inadequate to Homeland and a Homeland without one potential way of life, driven by need and by a burning sense of frustration that the general gregariousness forced all of which involved the simple workers who had to survive extreme poverty, disrupted their own destiny and a true spirit of redemption will make the decision, unrelenting and painful, to go away to far away places overseas to procure some employment and remuneration not always dignified. Now back to that
1860 the new operator of Italian politics, so to speak, took the Martyrdom of all Neapolitans in collective and Garibaldi , and returned sincerely hope ed'intenti breadth of mind, a Foundation Italica of National Unity: The New State Italian monarch of the King Vittorio Emanuele II Savoy by the grace of God and the will of the nation proclaimed Torino Prime the Italian Parliament March 17, 1861 . And so the "Problem Italian" was solved with Italy united and independent that became part of "Concert of Europe Nations. " Next March 17, 2011 will mark the 150th Anniversary its Constitution.
So the history of Italy, as a crucial moment, went from this extreme northern corner of land in the sea of \u200b\u200bSicily salient and would be unforgiving if Pelorus, to celebrate it, not get rid of layers of sand and the remains of our abyss Oblivion Fortino buried, witnessed the strange event and facts.
We call, with all the zeal you can, to see to it that these three intentions more copies of old muzzle-loading guns, recently withdrawn from a relentless deterioration, do not remain a task of consumption with the risk of becoming an event unfinished defrauded of his rights sacrosanct. And this place rich in history and tradition, so far so marginalized, they are to return to stand, after this miraculous opportunity that is presenting, in unexplored depths of the past.
Here Fortino buried in the new light and consegniamolo to the look and the beginning of all knowledge, first, to reconcile with the rubble of stone, gravel, sand and mortar of the old structures shattered during the excavation for the recovery of our three rusty antiques of historical war.
And I openly confess that we have thrown to the winds every political conviction and in spite of any complaint we declare, even with our voice infinitesimal, and out of my mind those Revolutions and the collective tragedy, these timeless monuments but in the grand symbol of FORT , of GUNS and Lanternino send us a thrill of touching emotion all collected together so well as a council in this sacred place, and we are very much in heart, which has seen men live and die and where you always feel the breath breathe free the sea and the beautiful pure wind of hope .
