"The Madiai Case" explores the infamous persecution of Francesco and Rosa Madiai in 19th-century Florence. This meticulously compiled account draws from the letters of Viscount Palmerston and official documents of the Protestant Deputation to Florence, providing a detailed examination of the events surrounding their imprisonment for allegedly promoting Protestantism. This book offers invaluable insights into the complexities of religious freedom, international diplomacy, and the struggles of individuals facing oppression. It sheds light on a pivotal moment in the history of religious tolerance and the challenges faced by those advocating for it.
