This anthology arose to counter the idea that, in Calabria, history is simply passing through. Hannibal and Spartacus came to Calabria to recruit rebels and renew the fight. Julia, the daughter of Augustus, was exiled to Reggio Calabria and died there thanks to her ex-husband, Emperor Tiberius. Here, we meet Alaric the Warrior-King who sacked Rome, and a monk condemned by the Council of 1215 for being a thinker, prophet and rebel. We will also encounter the Priory of Sion, the brigand "King Marcone," Tommaso Campanella, Alexandre Dumas, King Gioacchino Murat, and Mussolini, as well as the story of the concentration camp of Ferramonti di Tarsia, where no prisoner died a violent death. Proof that, in Calabria, history has definitely not simply passed through.
