Countries mentioned by Lombroso[edit]

I mentioned in my edits that Cesare Lombroso specifically mentioned "Albanian and Greek" heritage as being prominent in Calabria, which he said may have led to a hereditary/cultural disposition in Musolino to act violently. Those were his direct words in "L'Ultimo Brigante", which you can read here (the specific line is around the middle of what is listed in the book as being age 513): https://archive.org/details/sim_nuova-antologia-revista-di-lettere-scienze-ed-arti_1902-02_181/page/512/mode/2up?view=theater.

An IP editor keeps changing this to "Greek and Sicilian" without any sources; even if you personally feel that this may have been more historically accurate, I am simply using Lombroso's words from his 1902 article about Musolino. Barring the presentation of an actual source, to not use Lombroso's words would be to formulate an original claim/argument, which isn't what this website is for.

If you have a source that directly states that Lombroso attributed Musolino's behavior to "Greek and Sicilian" heritage, please reply to this post with the link. WUSTLWikiWarrior (talk) 19:00, 5 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
