Osborne knows well the grand narrative of Richelieu and Olivares, and here he places among their company the interesting figure of Alessandro Scaglia (1592-1641) who came from a noble Savoyard family that served its dukes primarily as diplomats. Radames, the Egyptian fighting against the Ethiopians, is in the position of the victorious national leader, who enacts the triumph of the Savoyard King over the King of Naples. After them came the government of an Italy united under the northern Savoyards and, less than a century later, the bomb-heralded arrival of the Allies in 1943 (themselves soon bombed by the Germans). |
