| Summary | "La peste di Milano del 1630" by Giuseppe Ripamonti is a historical account written during the early 19th century. The work details the devastating plague that struck Milan in the early 17th century, focusing on its social and political impacts, as well as the responses from local authorities and prominent figures of the time, such as Cardinal Federico Borromeo. At the start of the narrative, Ripamonti introduces the historical context of Milan prior to the outbreak, notably during Spanish rule. He describes the city as prosperous and cultured yet on the brink of catastrophe due to military unrest and the subsequent famine that preceded the plague. The opening establishes a bleak atmosphere where societal structures are crumbling under the weight of crisis, and masks the resilience and struggles of people as they confront the emerging threat of the epidemic. The author aims to preserve the memory of these events for future generations, emphasizing the moral and civic lessons learned from this historical tragedy.
