Abstract

[Manzoni and the Milan street where the so-called “Infamous Column” once stood] In the summer of 1630 in Milan, Guglielmo Piazza and Giangiacomo Mora were sentenced to death after being accused of being “untori.” Mora’s house, where he worked as a barber, was razed to the ground, and a column was erected on the site as a lasting memorial to the alleged infamy of his actions. More than two centuries later, their innocence was acknowledged, and on the site of the former barbershop—on a street now named after Mora—a plaque stands condemning the injustice.
