of Leopoldo were largely experimented with under the Grand Duke<br />

Pietro Leopoldo, in Tuscany.<br />

The errors of exaggerations, manifest in the materialization of ideas or<br />

ideals, were also known. And his son Ferdinand went about correcting<br />

them, aided by the very same counselors who had aided his father. This<br />

movement of castigation was interrupted by the French disturbances and<br />

by the chaos brought about by the Jews, who took part in the French<br />

chaos.<br />

One waited more than a century to continue the rectification, to continue<br />

the historical process, in the constructive sense. I do not tell you on<br />

whose part, because perhaps many among you are not yet ready to<br />

recognize these further manifestations of the Latin’s genius! The more or<br />

less military gentleman Fiorello La Guardia is not possessed of the Latin<br />

spirit (genio).<br />

The classical mentality differs from the Rooseveltian. And it seems<br />

stupid to me for one to entrust himself to a Lehman or a Morgenthau.<br />

None among these American officials possesses the Latin spirit. I would<br />

say that the Italians do well, every time they run true to their own spirit,<br />

the Italic, the Latin (spirit). I would say that they are doing well to<br />

differentiate that spirit from the Gaelic spirit. I would say that you would<br />

do very well to investigate it a bit, to search, if possible, for the causes of<br />

the confusion.<br />

I know that your situation is difficult. The American press does not guide<br />

you and does not help you, but rather admonishes you to forget your<br />

own culture, your Italic instincts, your language, the most beautiful<br />

daughter of the mother Latin (language). Do not yield! Persevere in<br />

reading your Italian books among yourselves. Those among you who<br />

have the opportunity to get into universities, must retain their Latin<br />

culture, not looking backward, but forward.
