Gioberti, Vincenzo (L)
Vincenzo Gioberti (1801-1852) was born in Italy and although an ordained priest, he was better known as a philosopher and a politician.
Vidal-Naquet[0580.82] informs us that Gioberti presented “his native land both as the heir to Atlantis and as the fount of ancient wisdom”*[in his 1843 book, Del primato morale e civile degli Italiani[1322].]*
