Scrittori in divisa. Commedie, bozzetti militari e racconti distopici (1864-1872) by Duccio Tongiorgi

“…On the contrary, hill peoples are best understood as runaway, fugitive, maroon communities who have, over the course of two millennia, been fleeing the oppressions of state-making projects in the val-leys - slavery, conscription, taxes, corvee labor, epidemics, and warfare.
