The emergence of these categories is connected with some structural transformations in the power¡¯s ideology, in particular with the crisis of the traditional doctrine of the ¡°arcana imperii¡±. The aim of this article is to underline the divergence between this discursive reality and the public sphere as a political and cultural reality in the eighteen-century¡¯s Italy. %K public opinion %K political discourse %K Italy %U http://www.cromohs.unifi.it/13_2008/landi.html
