2004 offered the opportunity to outline some features of the Parthenopean Republic of 1799 from the
point of view of an observer, who proved himself profoundly influencing. The idea of a passive revolu-
tion, compared to the Hegelian attitude toward the 1789’s events in France, was called to re-emerge even in Gramsci’s Prison’s Notebooks, related to the project of an intellectual and moral reform in Italy.
