Filosofia e storia della filosofia nella riflessione di Gennaro Sasso

This article takes into account the philosophical contribution of Gennaro Sasso on the history of philosophy between 1948 and 1988. The discussion with authors such as Carlo Dionisotti and Eugenio Garin, the publication of the works on Niccolò Machiavelli and Benedetto Croce, indicate signs of an original meditation on the meaning of historicism, in a period of italian culture characterized by the crisis of the relationship between history, philosophy and politics.
