Thesis (Ph.D.)--The University of Chicago, 1999.

In the 1870s, the eminent Neapolitan critic Francesco De Sanctis argued that Italian Romantic literature could be divided into two schools: the Democratic, headed by Giuseppe Mazzini, and the Catholic-Liberal, headed by Alessandro Manzoni. De Sanctis saw the difference between the schools in their attitudes toward human action in the political sphere: while the Democrats encouraged strong action and resistance to oppression, the Catholic-Liberals stressed an ideology of endurance and resignation borne of a strong Catholic religiosity. De Sanctis called this characteristic resignation "mansuetudine," implying not defeatism, but rather a patient passivity that frowned upon impetuous aggression and awaited the will of God to remove oppressors from power.

520 $a In the 1870s, the eminent Neapolitan critic Francesco De Sanctis argued that Italian Romantic literature could be divided into two schools: the Democratic, headed by Giuseppe Mazzini, and the Catholic-Liberal, headed by Alessandro Manzoni. De Sanctis saw the difference between the schools in their attitudes toward human action in the political sphere: while the Democrats encouraged strong action and resistance to oppression, the Catholic-Liberals stressed an ideology of endurance and resignation borne of a strong Catholic religiosity. De Sanctis called this characteristic resignation "mansuetudine," implying not defeatism, but rather a patient passivity that frowned upon impetuous aggression and awaited the will of God to remove oppressors from power.
520 $a At first glance, Catholic-Liberalism appears to have little to do with Italian opera. Generally, operas by Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, and Verdi are often seen by critics as reproducing Mazzini's ardent vigor, patriotism and exhortations to fellow citizens to rise up against their oppressors.
520 $a However, further investigation shows that Catholic-Liberalism also remained very important throughout the nineteenth century. Many composers, both famous and obscure, set important Catholic-Liberal texts in ways sympathetic to the spirit of the literary genre. Furthermore, other essential works by Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, and Verdi, seem to reproduce the genre's aesthetic and political ideologies, both through characteristic textual and musical means. These were often noticed and highlighted by reviewers of the time, and constituted an essential communicative element in early performances. Thus Catholic-liberal Romanticism, whose message of resignation and piety was of such great cultural and political significance for Italy, survived and even flourished through an operatic genre that is only now being fully understood.
