Echi machiavelliani e spirito evangelico nell'opera di Giorgio Spini

The work of Giorgio Spini is that of a passionate historian and an authentic Protestant. His religious inspiration becomes almost a secular faith that intersects the ideal of Italian unity and independence through a political realism made of evangelism and action. Machiavellian echoes in Spini's intellectual work mainly deal with the sense of history that can be conceived both as the historical perspective of analysis and as the heroic struggle for religious freedom and civilization of nations.
