Gioberti
Vittorio Gioberti was an Italian philosopher and thinker from the 19th century who believed that society and nations could progress through moral and spiritual renewal. He proposed that humanity moves forward by developing a collective sense of unity and shared values, like a spiritual nation. Gioberti emphasized the importance of culture, religion, and moral influence in shaping a better society. He saw the nation as a “moral organism” that evolves through the growth of its cultural and spiritual life, rather than solely by political or economic factors. His ideas influenced discussions on national identity and cultural development in Italy.
