Birth and youth battles[edit | translate]
Filippo Amedeo was born on 2 February 1891 into a working-class family of very modest origins, so he was forced to learn a trade from a very young age. He became a carpenter and cabinetmaker and became involved in the trade union field, where he distinguished himself for his organizational skills and combativeness, becoming secretary of the Turin League of Woodworkers and subsequently secretary of the National Federation and member of the executive committee of the Chamber of Labour. He became involved in politics at an early age, approaching the anarcho-socialist and anti-militarist positions found in the socialist youth organisation. In 1909 he was reported as a member of the Social War Herveist group, inclined towards Sorelian revolutionary syndicalism.
