My Ten Years' Imprisonment (Esprios Classics)

Silvio Pellico (24 June 1789 - 31 January 1854) was an Italian writer, poet, dramatist and patriot active in the Italian unification. His tragedy Francesca da Rimini was brought out with success by Carlotta Marchionni at Milan in 1818. Its publication was followed by that of the tragedy Euphemio da Messina, but the representation of the latter was forbidden. Pellico had in the meantime continued his work as tutor, first to the unfortunate son of Count Briche, and then to the two sons of Count Porro Lambertenghi [it]. He threw himself heartily into an attempt to weaken the hold of the Austrian despotism by indirect educational means.
