Vincenzo Gioberti

   Also found in: Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
Gioberti, Vincenzo 

Born Apr. 5, 1801, in Turin; died Oct. 26, 1852, in Paris. Italian politician and philosopher.

In his book On the Moral and Civil Primacy of the Italian Race (1843), Gioberti proposed the unification of Italian states within a confederation headed by the pope. This illusory and basically conservative idea (neo-Guelphism) was enthusiastically received by the moderate liberals among the Italian bourgeoisie. Giobertïs book exerted a great influence on public opinion in Italy and served as the banner of the liberal Catholic wing of the national movement that supported the unification of Italy from above. From December 1848 to February 1849, Gioberti headed the government of Piedmont.

By questioning, as the cornerstone works of Italian women historians did, the dichotomous construction of the social sphere in public/private domains, the novel undermines the sociological and intellectual discourses of the Risorgimento--by Cesare Balbo, Silvio Pellico, Niccolo Tommaseo, Vincenzo Gioberti and Antonio Rosmini, among others--that "normalized" the exclusion and irrelevance of women from civil society.
Moreover, Rosmini became identified--unjustifiably--with the controversial philosophy of another Italian statesman and thinker, Vincenzo Gioberti.
