About the Item
C.P.A.S. headed “Avanti! Socialist Journal ", addressed to the writer and art critic Ugo Ojetti.
Rome, 28 October 1903 (14x9 cm). Perfect condition.
Leonida Bissolati was one of the founders and most important leaders of the Italian Socialist Reformist Party at the turn of the 19th and 20th centuries. Graduated in law at the age of twenty at the University of Bologna, he began to alternate political activity with work as a lawyer at the law firm of his cousin, Ettore Sacchi. With him he founded the Carlo Cattaneo club: in the program a series of democratic and progressive reforms of the political and social system.
He collaborated in the magazine "Il Preludio" by Turati and Ghisleri, with whom he became friends, and came into contact with the sad conditions of the peasants and laborers of his land. In favor of their cause, between 1889 and 1895 he organized peasant unrest and social struggles to obtain better living conditions in the countryside. In 1889 he founded "L'eco del popolo", which later became the local organ of the Italian Socialist Party and published a partial translation of the Manifesto by Marx and Engels.
He is best remembered as the founder and first director of Avanti! which from 1896 to 1903 became the official organ of the Italian Socialist Party. The headline was based on that of the German Social Democratic newspaper, Vorwärts. The first issue of the newspaper came out in Rome on December 25, 1896, the day of Christmas, not by chance, but for all the symbolic values connected to the date.
Like Christ, Avanti! Was born to give voice and support to the reasons of the least, the oppressed, the dispossessed.
Bissolati's words are celebrated in the inaugural editorial in which he drew a political-ideal identity manifesto. Addressing directly to the President of the Council of Ministers and Minister of the Interior, at the time Antonio Starabba, Marquis of Rudinì, who had warned the managers and members of the newborn PSI with the warning "you can't go here", Bissolati replied with a title that entered the history of socialism and journalism, “From here we pass”, manifesting the faith and "scientific" certainty in the affirmation of the socialists' reasons and in the conquest of power by the workers.
This postcard is written in the year he resigned from office in 1903, (again taking over the direction of the newspaper between 1908 and 1910).
