CORNO, Nicola del. A counterrevolutionary controversy in Italy. The secret sects in the reflections of the Prince of Canosa. Sig. his [online]. 2021, vol.23, n.46, pp.88-119. Epub 04-Oct-2021. ISSN 1665-4420.
According to the Prince of Canosa, the French Revolution was the exclusive work of a sectarian plot. This dynamic was also seen in the revolutionary movements of 1820 in Spain and Italy, denouncing an international dimension of the conspiracy phenomenon. These revolutions were not to be seen as particular political upheavals, but as a single conspiracy that began with the sectarian occupation of positions of power already after the Restoration. This process had been favored, more or less consciously, by the policy of the restored sovereigns themselves, with the aim of involving political figures involved with the previous Napoleonic administrations. In addition, Canosa, highlighting how the various sects that disturbed the European political life of the time had the common purpose of moving against the Throne and the Altar as it happened in the late Eighteenth Century, assigned Freemasonry leadership, relegating to the Carbonari to a subordinate role.
