The Cultural Association “Faro Tricolore,” located in Desenzano del Garda, is organizing an important conference titled **“Garibaldinism after Garibaldi. From Domokòs to the Argonne.”** This event will take place to mark the centenary of the death of Ricciotti Garibaldi and aims to highlight the spiritual legacy left by Giuseppe Garibaldi, which is evident in the actions of his sons Ricciotti and Menotti, as well as his grandsons.
### The Legacy of Garibaldi
The conference intends to explore how **garibaldinism** has continued to influence the struggles for freedom across various historical contexts. It will delve into the actions taken by Garibaldi’s descendants on the battlefields, where they fought for the liberation of oppressed peoples.
### Focus on Modern Greece
A significant aspect of the meeting will be dedicated to the history of Modern Greece, particularly within the European context. The discussion will cover the struggle for emancipation from Ottoman rule and the contributions made by Italian philhellenes, including emblematic figures like Santorre di Santarosa and the Garibaldians led by Ricciotti. The latter actively participated in the **Battle of Domokòs** in 1897, supporting the Greeks in their fight for freedom.
### The Grandsons in the Great War
Furthermore, the conference will focus on the important role played by Garibaldi’s grandsons during World War I. Even before Italy officially entered the conflict, two of his grandsons, Bruno and Costante, lost their lives in the tragic **Battle of the Argonne**, an episode that attests to their commitment and sacrifice.
Maria D’Arconte, President of the Cultural Association “Faro Tricolore,” invites all interested parties to participate in this cultural event, which promises to enrich the understanding of the history related to the Garibaldian legacy and the values of freedom and justice it represents.
