A bomb, an anarchist's 'accidental death', the murder of a police
commissar, and the confession of a former member of Lotta Continua
led to seven dubious court cases and a tale of political
opportunism and dishonesty. Standing in the tradition of Emile
Zola's famous J'accuse polemic against the Dreyfus trial at the end
of the nineteenth-century, the historian Carlo Ginzburg draws on
his work on witchcraft trials in the sixteenth- and
seventeenth-centuries to dissect the weaknesses and contradictions
of the state's case in this late-twentieth-century political
show-trial and reflects more generally on the similarities and
differences between the roles of the historian and the judge.
