Indeed much of it in effect is a meditation on Clausewitz and a search for alternatives, including, sometimes, the author of the piece in question. Such work has its interest, notably for intellectual thought, and its value as a source and means of reflection. Nevertheless, the extent to which strategic theory or science offers much as a guidance to what choices are made and how they are implemented is problematic. Indeed, this argument rests more on assertion than hard evidence. The classic medieval example of this is the frequent assertion that medieval commanders were influenced by Vegetius, the late Roman writer. Vegetius was much copied (by monks), but there is no evidence that he was read by generals

This collection takes a critical look at the example and thereby asks broader questions about the nature of military revolutions and indeed about the conceptualisation, methodologies and historiography of military history as a whole. The original thesis was Euro-only and its subsequent development was Westerncentric. This collection both reexamines the thesis in its European heartland, not least by drawing on important perspectives that were long underplayed, but als adds valuable African and Asian approaches. So also with chronological looks to the periods before and after.

And in fact, learning from the past remains the primary purpose of professional military history, useful for identifying the determining factors of success and failure and concepts, approaches and methods of use of the "prince's panoply" (which is not limited to hard power and to the armed force but includes any other complementary or alternative means useful and appropriate to impose one's peace). Another traditional purpose is to acquire a cultural education with the systemic study of theoretical-practical literature (treatises, memories, historiography, manuals and classified studies) on the art of war (strategy, operations, tactics, personnel, logistics, information and technology) and the "military sciences" proper (ie the military applications of the physical, biological and mathematical sciences). "Military history", however, indicates - by synecdoche (ie a part for the whole) - the critical dimension of what today more exactly are called - and should be called - war studies, that is the complex of studies that deal with war in its various aspects from the specific perspective of the human, social, mathematical, biological and physical sciences. In fact, there is no knowledge that cannot be exploited to make or justify war. All these knowledges come together, more or less consciously, in forming the specific war culture of a specific era or society. The war studies serve to focus attention on the synergistic effect of all these aspects. Which is generally harmful, because a social culture of war is necessarily the precipitate of all the dogmatic obtuseness inherent in the particular knowledge of the human and social sciences. From there comes the "compulsion to repeat" always the same mistakes. And this is the sector that most requires continuous historical-critical hygiene and prophylaxis, remembering that "war" is a mere verbal abstraction and that wars (all different in their unrepeatable individuality) are mere phases (not always kinetic and rarely decisive), of the global historical process marked by contradictions and conflicts of "long duration".

A quasi un secolo da quelle vicende è giusto riconoscere gli sforzi compiuti dagli uomini della Mis-sione, che, in un ambiente ostile e senza una visione chiara degli obiettivi per-seguiti dal governo, si spesero per inserire l'Italia nel grandioso programma di rafforzamento economico e militare avviato da Chiang Kai-shek 1. L'arco temporale preso in esame va dai primi anni Trenta del Novecento, in coincidenza con l'arrivo a Shanghai di Galeazzo Ciano e Edda Mussolini, al dicembre 1937, data del rimpatrio forzato della Missione aeronautica che nella sua breve vita conobbe quattro fasi distinte: l'insediamento del colonnello Ro-berto Lordi ad Hangchow, il suo inaspettato richiamo in Patria, l'arrivo del successore Silvio Scaroni e il difficile ristabilimento di un rapporto di fiducia col Generalissimo.

Italy was involved in the war of Austrian succession (1740-1748) by the Spanish attempt to reconquer the Lombardy lost in 1708. The Spanish expedition of Montemar (1742-43) was rejected on the Panaro by the Austrians thanks to the intervention of the army Piedmontese, and Austria took advantage of it to try in turn to resume the Kingdom of Naples, which ten years before had been conquered by Charles of Bourbon, son of the Royals of Spain. In the summer 1744, the Austrian pursuit of the Spanish retreat, stopped in front of the entrenched camp created in Velletri by the Spanish and Neapolitan armies commanded by King Charles. Since neither Austrians nor Bourbons wanted to risk a field battle, there followed a long standstill, hardly paid by the population, with various diplomatic background and Austrian attempts, partly supported by English ships and by reactionaries hostile to King Charles's reformism, to win indirectly (first with a raid in Abruzzo, then with a coup against Velletri for the purpose, failed by a whisker, to capture the king). The campaign ended with the Austrian retreat in Rimini and the solemn entrance of King Charles to Rome, celebrated by the pope. Based on an impressive bibliography, the work reconstructs the context and details of the campaign in a new way, analyzing the Fabian strategy (cunctatio) aimed at wearing down the opponent with the maneuver and its auxiliary elements (seapower, logistics, propaganda, intelligence, diplomacy, treatment of civilians); as well as the itineraries and events between the Po and the Liri-Garigliano and between the Adriatic and the Tyrrhenian Sea; the relations between the military and civilians; the composition of the Staffs; the recruitment; the organization, the armament and the uniforms and flags of the three armies (Austrian, Spanish and Neapolitan). The work is richly illustrated with 70 full-page pictures (portraits of the protagonists, original maps of the routes and fights, and uniforms and flags based on a new research).

Il maggior credito che prestiamo alla moderna rappresentazione del futuro, specialmente in rapporto alla guerra, esime consulenti e pianificatori da analoga prudenza. Eppure, talora, «un cervello che non deve funzionare», rinchiuso in un carcere del «mondo che va verso … » 2 , può intendere, da uno sgualcito ritaglio di giornale, la vera portata di una questione da specialisti: «tutte queste dispute sulla guerra futura ipotetica sono il terreno di una 'guerra' reale attuale; (…) Per parecchi governi attuali, le discussioni sul modo come devono essere stabiliti i piani strategici di una guerra futura ecc., sono l'occasione per eliminare molecolarmente le vecchie personalità militari (…) perciò l'importanza dell'aviazione è duplice: tecnico-militare e politico-immediata» 3 . L'idea del "passato-presente" è l'apporto più profondo e poderoso della cultura italiana del Novecento alla teoria della prassi e alla teoria della storiografia. Limpida e tremenda, mostra il passato e il futuro come proiezioni e rappresentazioni del presente, orientando l'intelligenza e la critica del nostro ricordare e 1 "Andrai e tornerai, non morirai in guerra"; oppure: "andrai e non tornerai, morirai in guerra". 2 «Riuscire a convincere che il "mondo va verso …" una certa direzione significa niente altro che riuscire a convincere della ineluttabilità della propria azione e ottenere il consenso passivo per la sua esplicazione. Come questa convinzione si formi è certo un argomento interessante: che vi contribuisca la "viltade" e altre forme di bassezza morale è indubbio; ma anche il fatto che tanta "viltade" e tanta bassezza siano diffuse è un fatto politico che andrebbe analizzato e di cui bisognerebbe trovare le origini concrete» (Antonio Gramsci, Passato e presente, Einaudi, Torino, 1954, p. 27). 3 Gramsci, ibidem, p. (Gramsci interpretava l'appoggio del regime fascista all'aviazione come un modo di screditare la fronda dei marescialli d'Italia, su cui si appuntavano le speranze dell'antifascismo "aventiniano"). del nostro progettare. Abbiamo provato, con questo convegno, ad applicare l'idea del "passato-presente" al tema della guerra, il cui studio storico rappresenta la ragion d'essere della nostra associazione, ma anche il nostro "Beruf ", la nostra responsabilità di studiosi e cittadini, testimoni della prima guerra seguita alla "fine della storia" e alla nuova chiusura del Tempio di Giano, avvenuta 15 anni fa con la vittoria occidentale nella guerra fredda. Il tema che abbiamo scelto per il nostro convegno della Società Italiana di Storia Militare non è dunque un «palaiòn hegemònen anàthema» 4 , un "ozioso passatempo per antichi generali" e professori, messi per sempre a riposo dall'instaurazione della nuova Sebastè Eiréne, della nuova Pax Augusta che garrisce sul mondo sotto le nostre stellate bandiere. Non ci siamo riuniti per discettare da militaristi sulla guerra del futuro o da pacifisti sul futuro della guerra, ma per abbozzare lo studio storico di un tema costante e ricorrente di ogni epoca, e cioè la rappresentazione della "guerra futura". Abbiamo gettato, in una bella e serena giornata di sole prealpino, una dozzina di arpioni lillipuziani -quelli che avevamo sottomano -sul dorso di un gigante addormentato, non per rinchiuderlo tra le pagine di un libro, ma per guardare più lontano appollaiati sulle sue spalle.

After the age of 60, Roman citizens were exonerated from military service. Their enlistment, oath and training were not different from that of their fellow citizens. 1 Once the Senate passed the relative decree to decide how many men must be levied, the two consuls began the dilectus (in Latin selection) or levy. By the end of the second century BCE, each year were generally levied four legions, two for each consul. According to Polybius, first, the consuls appoint all the 24 tribunes, of whom 14 already had seen five years of military service and 10 had seen already ten years of service. The dilectus itself began when a red flag was raised on the Capitol to indicate the beginning of the levy. Then, all the citizens were called up and divided according to their tribe. Of all the citizens called up, however, were selected according to lots only the quantity necessary to form four legions. Afterwards, the 14 younger tribunes called the names of the citizens selected by lot and divided them in four groups as the four legions. Subsequently, the tribunes, or the junior officers, were assigned to the legions. At the same time that the dilectus was performed in Rome, the consuls sent a message to the Italic allies, or socii, requiring to levy a contingent. The local authorities administer the oath to the soldiers of the allied contingent. 2 After the levy, all the citizens soldiers, by now each assigned to his own unit, or legio, took the oath of allegiance. This oath was symbolic because it represented for the citizen the transition between the civic environment with its laws to the military discipline, to which he was now subjected. The oath of allegiance to the Roman Republic was taken under the auspices of Fides, a goddess that embodied the virtue of good faith or trust. The idea of fides stood at the foundation of the Roman state. To the virtue of fides was associated the idea of fas, or what was right in the eyes of the gods. Once an agreement was made under the aegis of fides, it was perceived as fas, or right in the eyes of the gods. On the other hand,

At a closer scrutiny, however, he turns out to be an intriguing, even baffling character, whose comings and goings through Britain, Europe and the States left an amazing trail of documentary evidence from which we are building up his biography. In this paper we propose a reconstruction of Forbes’ early life and an analysis of the role he played in the Italian revolution of 1848-49. A role which helps to illuminate Lord Palmerston’s policy towards Italian and, above all, Sicilian independence. And a biography in which the history of armed international radicalism and the genesis of the First Edwardian Globalization and the Anglo-Franco-Italian Proto West are strongly intertwined.

Italy on the Rimland: Storia militare di una penisola eurasiatica, vol. 1: Intermarium, ed. Virgilio Ilari, Società Italiana di Storia Militare – Nadir Media Edizioni, Roma 2019, pp. 207-222., 2019

This participation falls within the framework of a long tradition of military volunteerism by the Italians, which had commenced in the 1820s and was founded upon the concepts of the Mediterranean solidarity at first and of the Greco-Latin subsequently, as well as within the climate of constituting a “Liberal International” at that time. Principal agent and embodiment of the renewed philhellenic movement during the period of the Risorgimento’s major successes was Giuseppe Garibaldi, who assimilated the ideas and the projects of the democratic and Mazzinian movement, as well as the radical ideas of 1848.
First, Garibaldi’s relations with Greece and the Balkans are examined, and the profile of the Garibaldini volunteers is sketched. The discussion then focuses on the volunteers’ last mission to Greece, during the First Balkan War. Explored in this context are: the conditions of forming and sending a volunteer corps to Greece, on the initiative of Ricciotti Garibaldi (1912); its perception by the Italian political parties and public opinion, its reception in Greece and the oppositions within it; and its participation jointly with Greek and other Red Shirts in the battle of Driskos. Assessed next are the contribution of the Italian Garibaldini at an operational level, as well as the internationalization and publicizing of the Greek campaign; the impact of their activity on the – at that time complicated – Greek-Italian interstate relations; their further usefulness and the possibilities of keeping their myth alive within the political, ideological and geopolitical clime emerging in Europe and the Mediterranean on the eve of the First World War. Last, issues of memory of the Italian Garibaldini volunteers in modern Greece are raised as well, while the lacunae in research and the research prospects for the issue investigated are noted.

Postumius Albinus (pr. 216 BCE), who fell in battle to the Gallic Boii: "The Boii stripped his body of its spoils and cut off the head and bore them in triumph to the most sacred of their temples. According to their custom they cleaned out the skull and covered the scalp with beaten gold; it was then used as a vessel for libations" (23.24.6-13). Livy's Gauls were wild, fierce, and wholly barbaric to Roman eyes. Such depictions were a common literary topos but differ starkly from the visual stereotype of the Gallic warrior that developed beginning in the second century BCE: the subdued and bound captive. By tracing the origins and function of the Gallic warrior topos in Roman visual culture, this paper argues that the very dissonance of these representations lent symbolic power to the image of the captured Gaul. In stamping such images on the coins that funded further war efforts, the Romans made potent claims to dominance over Gallic peoples. These martial coins, however, did not serve merely as a vehicle for Roman self-fashioning, they circulated among conquered peoples, whose own coin iconography adapted to and reacted against Roman authority. Drawing on the same visual language that rendered them permanently captive, Gallic elites carved out their own potent claims to power within the new landscape of Roman dominance.
