Summary "Carlo Porta e la sua Milano" by Raffaello Barbiera is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This work delves into the life and times of Carlo Porta, a vibrant poet from Milan known for his sharp social and political satire during a period of significant change in Italian society. The book likely explores the socio-political landscape of Milan during Porta's life, highlighting key figures and events that shaped the city's history. The opening of the book sets the stage by discussing the vibrant yet tumultuous life in Milan during Carlo Porta's birth and his formative years. It introduces readers to the creative energy of the late 18th century, characterized by progressive thinkers like Beccaria and Verri, as well as the oppressive societal conditions under Austrian rule. Barbiera outlines the notable birth circumstances of Porta amidst a backdrop of social upheaval, presenting him as a fierce critic of the aristocracy and an advocate for the common people. The text also contrasts the challenges and cultural innovations of Porta's time, ultimately establishing him as a key figure in the changing literary landscape of Milan.
