Camillo Berneri belongs to the philosophical record as a figure whose arguments outlasted the disputes that prompted them.
The record lists Camillo Berneri as Italian philosopher (1897–1937).
Camillo Berneri was born at Lodi in 1897. His recorded nationality is Italy.
Around the turn of the twentieth century philosophy split into traditions that largely stopped reading one another.
His academic posts were held at University of Florence.
Among his principal works are Carlo Cattaneo the federalist and The Original Sin. Philosophy advances by objection: an argument matters if serious people spend years attacking it.
That the work was done from Italy matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Camillo Berneri died in 1937, aged 40. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
