A Discourse On The Life, Character, And Policy Of Count Cavour by Vincenzo Botta. This work presents a biographical and political portrait of Count Camillo Benso di Cavour, the Turin-born statesman whose leadership helped unite Italy. The discourse traces Cavour’s life from his birth in 1810 through his early education, military service, and decisive turn toward political economy and liberal ideas. It emphasizes his adoption of Anglo?Saxon principles of liberty in governance and his practical reforms: free trade, modern finance, development of railways, public credit, and the separation of church and state. It covers his involvement with the Risorgimento movement, collaboration with leaders like Azeglio and Balbo, and his nuanced stance toward Mazzini. The narrative details his foreign policy, including the Crimean War, the Paris Congress, and the war against Austria, which culminated in the annexation of Lombardy and Venetia and set the stage for Italian unification under Victor Emmanuel II. The oration honors his moral courage, political realism, and enduring influence on modern Italy.
