Lazzaroni
déclassé lumpen proletariat elements in southern Italy. The first lazzaroni were the participants in the 1647 uprising in Naples led by Masaniello. In the 18th and 19th centuries the term came to signify the entire mass of poor déclassé people in southern Italy, as well as in a number of other countries. The counterrevolution used them in the struggle against the revolutionary movement, as for instance in the Bourbons’ bloody suppression of the Neapolitan revolution of 1799.

No references found | Neither are picturesque lazzaroni or romantic criminals half so frequent as your common labourer, who gets his own bread and eats it vulgarly but creditably with his own pocket-knife. There remain a few idle men of fortune, tavern and grog-shop loungers, lazzaroni, old bachelors, decaying maidens, and people of crooked intellect or temper, all of whom may find their like, or some tolerable approach to it, in the plentiful diversity of our latter class. you thought to make us, unhappy strangers, trot at the heels of your processions, like so many lazzaroni, because no carriages or horses are to be had in your beggarly city. |
