The experience of exiles was fundamental for shaping Italian
national identity. Risorgimento in Exile investigates the
contribution to Italian nationalism made by the numerous patriots
who were forced to live in exile following failed revolutions in
the Italian states. Examining the writings of such exiles, Maurizio
Isabella challenges recent historiography regarding the lack of
genuine liberal culture in the Risorgimento. He argues that these
emigres' involvement in debates with British, continental, and
American intellectuals points to the emergence of Liberalism and
Romanticism as international ideologies shared by a community of
patriots that stretched from Europe to Latin America. Risorgimento
in Exile represents the first effort to place Italian patriotism in
a broad international framework, revealing the importance and
originality of the Italian contribution to European Anglophilia and
Philhellenism, and to transatlantic debates on federalism. In doing
so, it demonstrates that the Risorgimento first developed as a
variation upon such global trends.
