BRUNO GATTA
MAZZINI UNA VITA PER UN SOGNO
GUIDA 2002 400 PP. FONDO DI MAGAZZINO: PERFETTO E INTONSO. Mazzini fu uno dei quattro Padri fondatori della patria: con Cavour, con Garibaldi e con re Vittorio Emanuele II. Il quale ultimo sembrò, in un primo momento, accaparrarsi il titolo in proprio, nei libri di scuola. Ma poi la storia ha provveduto, con la sua saggezza, alla correzione anagrafica. Mazzini, cospiratore carbonaro, agitatore rivoluzionario, esule in Francia, in Svizzera e, a lungo, in Inghilterra, triumviro della repubblica romana, fu, nei dieci anni e nei trenta mesi che fecero l'Italia, l'incudine ideale su cui batté il martello politico di Cavour, in 'concordia discors' l'uno con l'altro. Dopo la caduta della repubblica del '49, dopo le forche di Belfiore e la mancata insurrezione di Milano, parecchi mazziniani si distaccarono dal maestro e riposero nel cassetto il loro sogno giovanile. Una diaspora che lo ferì ma non lo disarmò. Continuò con ostinazione a predicare e a sognare: quella sua predicazione, che assomigliava - dice Omodeo - ai motivi suonati da una vecchia fanfara che riuscivano ad animare i giovani oltre ogni stanchezza, indifferenza, incredulità. Egli era Mazzini, una tradizione, un mito, un fremito, un nome non sostituibili. Bruno Gatta, scrittore di storia risorgimentale e contemporanea, dà rilievo agli uomini che, attori o testimoni, vissero la vicenda storica narrata. Biografo anche di 'Mussolini' (1988), ritrattista degli 'Uomini del duce' (1986), nonché dei suoi oppositori ('La rivoluzione promessa' 1982), ha raccolto le confessioni in grigioverde dei padri e dei figli che combatterono le due guerre mondiali ('La solitudine della guerra', 1994). Ha scritto inoltre sulle riviste eretiche dell'intellighentia fiorentina (1997) nei vent'anni del fascismo e ha fatto la cronaca storica, giorno per giorno, dell'Agosto '39 (1997). Questa vita di Mazzini riprende un tema critico già accennato in 'Risorgimento incompiuto' (1995). INDICE Parte Prima La giovinezza dell’apostolo I.
