Resumen de La Rivoluzione fra le lettere. Il carteggio fra Albert Soboul e Armando Saitta
The extensive correspondence between Albert Soboul and Armando Saitta, which covers about three decades (1955-1982), gives us more than a deeper knowledge of the biography of two of the greatest scholars of French Revolution. This correspondence shows the advent of a partnership that embodies the progress made by historians in breaking with tradition of the past and in acknowledging Jacobinism and the popular movement of sans-culotte, and more generally the whole revolutionary process, as a paradigm of modernity. The letters between the two highlight the issue of brotherhood and play a pivotal role for the understanding of civil value of historian’s work
