Massimo Taparelli, Marquess of Azeglio (24 October 1798 – 15 January 1866), commonly called Massimo d’Azeglio was a Piedmontese-Italian statesman, novelist and painter. Besides a variety of newspaper articles and pamphlets, d’Azeglio’s chief works are the two novels Ettore Fieramosca (1833) and Niccolò dei Lapi (1841), as well as a volume of autobiographical memoirs entitled I Miei Ricordi (D’Azeglio Memoirs – p. 1867), a work published after his death, in 1866, but unfortunately incomplete. A quote from his memoirs is “L’Italia è fatta. Restano da fare gli italiani”, translated colloquially as “We have made Italy. Now we must make Italians.
