Abstract

Object of the essay is a summary reflection on the monarchical institution in the long nineteenth century based on the acquisitions of the most recent Italian constitutional historiography but with an eye to the constitutional historiographies of Germany and Austria. The aim is to collect and highlight correspondences, referrals, parallels, synchronies, common features, which are both real and outlining trends, both structural and functional, both static and dynamic, between the historical events of the Italian constitutional monarchy and the aforementioned foreign monarchical-constitutional experiences.
