Bortolo Belotti tra Storia e Lettere

Bortolo Belotti (1877-1944) Bergamascan historian author of “The History of Bergamo and of Bergamascans” a work conceived with an innovative scientific spirit. Illuminated liberal, he refuses to succumb to the new conformism imposed by the Fascist regime: “I believe in ideas, in the moral values of a life lived austerely working and repugnant of vulgarity, of all vulgarity…” He was a victim of forced residence and far from his “green valley of Zogno”, died in exile in Lugano.
