Summary | "Storia degli Italiani, vol. 06 (di 15)" by Cesare Cantù is a historical account written in the late 19th century. This volume focuses on the origins of the communes in Italy, detailing the complexities and the evolution of social and political structures during the medieval period. Cantù aims to illuminate how these institutions emerged from feudalism and contributed to the development of civil life in Italy, contrasting it with French and English experiences. The opening portion of the text establishes the groundwork for understanding the evolution of the Italian communes, beginning with an examination of misconceptions surrounding these entities. Cantù challenges prevailing views by emphasizing that the communes were initiated not merely as uprisings against oppression, but as steps towards achieving humane rights and liberties for the oppressed classes. He explores the historical context, discussing the feudal relationships and legal frameworks that shaped the formation of these communes, as well as the interactions among various social strata, including the nobility, clergy, and common people. With meticulous analysis, he highlights the gradual empowerment of municipalities amidst the complexities of medieval governance, setting the stage for the reader to appreciate the significant role of communes in shaping modern Italian identity and governance.
