Hume’s fortune in Italy in the twentieth century owed a lot to the works of Mario Dal Pra and Giancarlo Carabelli. The first made a very impressive contribution as a translator and editor of Hume’s works and also as the author of seminal essays on his philosophy. Carabelli’s main achievement has been a study of the cultural context in eighteenth-century Scotland and that on the background to Hume’s Dialogues.
