and forestry.", "Its manager is called a \"poplar farmer\".Their ease of planting, rapid growth, and natural affinity for very wet, but not swampy, biotopes make them one of the most widely cultivated species in France, Belgium and the Netherlands, as well as in many former wetlands.banks or banksides to growers.", "These trees, typical of canal landscapes, were once used to produce matches.To boost their growth, poplars (varieties or cultivars resulting from hybridization between poplars of European or American origin, generally first selected for their rapid growth) are sometimes planted on soil prepared by subsoiling or ploughing, often after weeding and sometimes fertilizing and drainage using techniques more reminiscent of agriculture than forestry." ], [ "Two main segments", "In wood-material production, the \"revolution\" (the period between planting and felling) of poplar used to be around fifty years.", "With the new clones and hybrids selected for their productivity, it is now closer to twenty years, or even 15, but fast-growing varieties are often susceptible to various diseases, including poplar rust.Outlets include light packaging (crates, cheese boxes, etc.", "), plywood, paper mills, and particle board factories, while the larger logs are used to make veneer and plywood (peeled wood).This is one of the few species that the same owner can plant and harvest during his lifetime, or even several times in his lifetime." ], [ "Revolution", "The selection of increasingly fast-growing cultivars has at least halved the revolution in poplar plantations.Transgenic poplars are being or have been tested, in North America and in France in particular, with poplars intended for energy production and poplars potentially destined for the paper industry, as well as with short rotation coppice or very short rotation coppice, with harvesting at 4 or 5 years, followed by regrowth and by pruning.With the development of the wood fuel sector, research organizations have become interested in poplar management using short rotation coppice (6 to 8 years) and very short rotation coppice (2 to 3 years).", "Harvested using an adapted forage harvester, the poplar grove is then finely shredded to produce biomass.", "Abandoned for a time due to low profitability and competition from willow, soaring energy costs could revive trials on this management method, which is not specific to poplar.In such intensive monocultures, however, it has the disadvantage of exhausting the soil and encouraging attacks by certain fungi or insects normally or abnormally associated with these poplars, but likely to proliferate under intensive cultivation conditions, and to which high-yield poplars are often more vulnerable.Various countries have been experimenting with spreading sewage sludge (dry or liquid) on poplar crops for several decades." ], [ "Poplar and the environment", "In monospecific, even-aged stands, however, poplar plantations can be highly vulnerable to disease and defoliation, as well as to storms and drought.Poplar plantations are often presented as detrimental to the environments in which they are established, not so much because of the species itself, but because they are planted in even-aged monocultures, often monoclonal and often on agricultural land.", "These three conditions are not conducive to the expression of biodiversity and the ecopotentiality of the site, while at the same time favoring contagious tree-to-tree diseases and outbreaks of phytophagous insects (including defoliators).", "In particular, poplar rusts have reached unprecedented levels in several French regions since the 1990s.In some cases, these problems have led to the massive use of pesticides, either as aerial dusting or spraying or from the ground in 1952, with the former use of highly toxic, non-degradable pesticides such as lead arsenate.What's more, thanks to the rapid growth and high evapotranspiration of its species, poplar cultivation has often been used to modify very wet areas (creation of drainage ditches, lowering of water tables, pumping for urbanization).", "This practice has created an image of poplar cultivation that is not environmentally friendly.", "Urban planning documents often stipulate that it is forbidden to plant or replant poplars, and only poplars, \"whereas the reasons given (disappearance of certain plant species from open environments, impact on water quality in rivers and ponds, modification of the initial ecosystem...) are the natural consequences of the closure of the environment by the presence of trees, not just poplars.\"", "Limitations on this stand are only justified for specific environments or particular contexts.Poplars also have a bad reputation for causing allergies.", "However, male poplars produce small quantities of pollen, which is of little or no allergenic value.", "Female poplars produce low-allergenic but highly visible fruiting cotton, wrongly associated with grass pollen, which appears at the same time of year and is highly allergenic but much less visible.By consuming too much water, poplars dry out the soil.", "These hydrophilic species have a \"luxury water consumption\" due to their high density of stomata (present on both sides of the leaves) and, above all, their poor transpiration regulation.", "Although these species are adapted to environments with abundant water resources, studies on an entire poplar grove invalidate this assumption.", "The superficial rooting of poplars, their lower leaf area index, and their phenology mean that \"the actual evapotranspiration of a poplar stand on wet sites is lower than that of an alluvial forest, and that of a poplar stand on a well-drained plateau site would still be equivalent to, or even lower than, that of an oak grove.", "\"Because of their shallow roots, poplar plantations are accused of undermining riverbanks, causing them to collapse, and clogging riverbeds with trees, a possible source of ice jams.", "The most recent studies show that the majority of poplar species do not merit these criticisms.Earlier studies suggested that poplar was one of the most harmful species for fish farming, its leaves being blamed for deoxygenation the water and releasing substances toxic to fish.", "This impact exists regardless of tree species, and only in the case of stagnant or low-flow water.=== Agroforestry ===Numerous intercropping practices were recognized as beneficial to the development of poplar plantations: weed crops in the early years, corn, sunflower and beans.", "The hyper-specialization of the late 20th century led to a decline in these practices.=== Genetic diversity ===\"Natural\" or \"semi-natural\" poplar plantations, made up of more or less indigenous species and varieties, still exist locally, generally in wetlands far from or on the outskirts of agricultural areas.", "Their purpose is to preserve the genetic and expressive potential of natural poplar plantations.", "However, in Western Europe, and in France (Europe's leading poplar producer and the world's second-largest after China, with Picardy being the leading French region in terms of surface area and volume), true wild poplar stands have themselves become rare in many of their native regions, as they have in Asia and much of North America.", "Thus, for example, the black poplar once so abundant in northern France and Belgium seems to have almost disappeared from departments where it was still common a few decades ago.Where it is still locally present, it sometimes has a very impoverished genetic diversity (as a result of clones replanted in the 20th century).", "In addition, there is spontaneous genetic introgression and hybridization between wild and introduced poplars and genetic pollution of wild populations from the hundreds of thousands of clones introduced into poplar plantations, as demonstrated for example for ''P.", "nigra'' in Belgium by paternity analyses carried out in the field.The fauna, flora, and fungi of a poplar grove vary considerably according to the age of the plantations, the fertility of the site, and the management of the undergrowth.However, a certain \"renaturation\" of poplar plantations seems possible if the management method allows it.", "In that case, the undergrowth and edges of these stands can spontaneously colonize the herbaceous stratum with other trees, bushes or lianas, which can facilitate \"conversion\" to other types of woodland.", "According to a team of researchers from the Ghent's University Forestry Laboratory and the Institute for Forestry and Game Management, a \"traditional\" poplar grove of little ecological value, in more \"natural\" stands\", can be facilitated by the \"spontaneous development of autochthonous species\", particularly if the parameters determining this renaturation are better understood.", "One study examined the degree of spontaneous recolonization of 175 poplar plantations (in Belgium) and concluded that spontaneous development was \"often so important that it can be used as a basis for stand transformation.", "For some species, the \"forest age\" parameter determines this development, i.e.", "the period during which the site has been managed as a poplar stand\" (the older the site and the closer it is to harvesting, the less frequent and significant the disturbance due to maintenance).", "\"The establishment of other species can be used to develop mixed, well-structured, multifunctional stands of greater ecological, recreational and aesthetic value\".As the frequency and intensity of maintenance work diminish, annual species, generally pioneer at first, then perennial grassland, and finally more typically sylvatic (mainly woody), with (in Belgium, according to available data) a corresponding increase in phytomass (from 250g to 1kg per square meter, and up to 2 kg/m2) in the oldest and least maintained poplar groves.", "Studies of abandoned poplar plantations have revealed a significant accumulation of phytomass near the trees, with species (number and variety) depending on the levels of disturbance caused by successive past maintenance.", "This suggests that \"the enrichment of the flora by maturation allows the appearance of more stable, longer-lived species\" (a phenomenon only observed in the oldest poplar plantations), and perhaps of interest in terms of carbon sinks and ecological resilience.Poplar is the species on which transgenesis has been most extensively tested solely in the laboratory, despite a very complex and large genome, which has also been the most extensively studied among trees.GMO poplars (interspecific hybrid ''Populus tremula'' x ''P.", "alba'', female clones of the subspecies Cultivar/INRA line #717-1B4) have been created and tested by INRA (after authorization for release) since the 1990s, with the hope of producing low-lignin wood of interest to papermakers, or so-called second-generation biofuels, or that it can secrete an insecticide (Bt), resist selective weedkillers, or grow in arid zones, especially in North America.", "One experiment is being conducted in France by INRA at Saint-Cyr-en-Val (Loiret)...", "These experiments are highly controversial, notably for their risk of genetic pollution following cross-breeding with normal poplars.", "INRA requested and obtained an initial authorization to extend the experiment (for testing on an industrial scale) and a second request to study \"the properties of the wood to complete their agronomic and environmental assessment and to evaluate their wood for a new use: bioenergy production.", "\"In 2013, INRA requested a further extension of its field trial.", "The Economic, Ethical, and Social Committee of the High Council on Biotechnology issued a negative opinion, considering, in particular, that growing GM poplars for agrofuels would conflict with agricultural land or biodiversity.", "InfOGM has deciphered the CEES recommendation." ], [ "France", "Poplar plantations are highly developed in France, particularly in regions rich in wetlands and north of Paris (Picardy, Nord Pas-de-Calais).", "Poplar cultivation in alluvial zones has been described since 1875: the (''Populus serotina'', a hybrid between the European black poplar and the American black poplar), introduced around 1850 in the hinterland of the Marais Poitevin, gradually replaced the \"Charpes\", spontaneous black poplars, from 1875 onwards.In all regions, poplar stands are unevenly distributed across cantons and departments.In the Nord department, for example, poplar plantations covered around 18,000 hectares in the early 2000s, i.e.", "almost twice the size of the region's largest state forest (Forêt de Mormal), but with a highly variable rate (almost 0% in the Dunkirk area, compared with 1.3% in the Nord and 0.7% in the Pas-de-Calais, according to the Agreste-SAA survey, 2002).France is Europe's

[ [ "Neuroqueer theory" ], [ "Introduction", "'''Neuroqueer theory''' is a framework that intersects the fields of neurodiversity and queer theory.", "It examines the ways society constructs and defines normalcy, particularly concerning gender, sexual orientation, and dis/ability, and challenges those constructions.", "It critiques the pathologization of neurodivergent individuals and the ways in which this intersects with the marginalization of queer individuals.", "The term ''neuroqueer'' can be used as a verb, adjective, or identity label.", "As a verb, it refers to the act of challenging neuronormativity and heteronormativity, as well as advocating for recognition and celebration diverse experiences and identities.", "As an adjective, ''neuroqueer'' describes phenomena, theories, or identities that challenge neuronormativity and heteronormativity, emphasizing the intersections and diversity of queer and neurodivergent identities and experiences.", "Individuals who identify as neuroqueer are often neurodivergent and queer, though this is not a necessity.", "Nick Walker, who initially coined the term, has indicated that neurotypical, cisgender, heterosexual individuals may also identity as neuroqueer if they are actively challenging neuronormativity and heteronormativity, especially if they are challenging the existing categorizations of gender, dis/ability label, or sexual orientation." ], [ "History", "Neuroqueer theory grew from the existing fields of disability studies and queer theory.", "The former arose as a field of scholarship in the 1970s following the disability rights movement and sought to center the perspectives of people with disabilities, as well as challenge existing understandings of disability.", "This resulted in the social model of disability, which views disability as a societal failure rather than an individual deficit.", "For example, the social model of disability argues that a deaf person is disabled not by their inability to hear but rather by societal structures that privilege hearing; as such, to reduce barriers, social should provide greater access for deaf people, such as access to sign language interpreters and audio captioning, rather than asking the deaf person to use hearing aids and cochlear implants.", "Disability studies and the disability rights movement have also pushed for inclusive language, including person-first language, such as \"person with autism\".Since the rise of disability studies and the disability rights movement, both scholars and people with disabilities have critiqued the focus on people with physical impairments, often to the detriment of those who have disabilities related to the mind, as well as people with chronic illnesses.", "This resulted in the development of Mad studies and other disciplines.", "The term ''neurodivergence'' arose in the 1990s \"to disrupt deficit-laden narratives of dis/abilities related to the mind, particularly autism\" and has since been used \"to promote discourses of diversity in terms of neurological functioning and performance\".", "Further, many advocates and scholars argued against person-first language when referring to neurodivergence as they saw neurodivergence as an identity, not a diagnosis.", "As such, \"to place dis/abled, autistic, or neurodivergent after the preposition ‘with’ is to view the corresponding term as a pejorative, a negative association that should be separated from one’s personhood\".Queer theory emerged in the 1990s to analyze and challenge heteronormativity.", "Queer theorists have often used the verb ''to queer'' to refer to the act of idealizing and inventing \"an always-becoming-future by looking and examining the world (and the actions occurring within it) in ways that have not yet been imagined\".Nick Walker coined the term ''neuroqueer'' in 2008, though Athena Lynn Michaels-Dillon had also independently coined the phrase, and Remi Yergeau had been considering the concept, as well, referring to it as ''neurological queerness''.", "Walker used the term in relation to queer theory to \"examine how socially-imposed neuronormativity and socially-imposed heteronormativity were entwined with one another, and how the queering of either of those two forms of normativity entwined with and blended into the queering of the other one.\"", "The word ''neuroqueer'' first appeared in print on the back cover of Michaels-Dillon's novel ''Defiant'' (2015) and in Yergeau's ''Authoring Autism'' (2018).The use of ''neuroqueer'' has since grown to refer to a field of academic study, as well as an identity label.", "Those who claim \"a neuroqueer identity recognize that discourses of person-first language or celebrated differences do not shift ableist constructions of neurological functioning as they purport to do\", given that \"ableism systematically and systemically constructed what it means to be ‘normal’\", which excludes neurodivergent and queer individuals.", "As such, individuals who claim a neuroqueer identity \"deliberately dissociate with ableist assimilation practices by purposefully resisting conformity while finding pride in one’s selfhood.", "This act, in turn, queers what it means to exist, act, and perform in social spheres.\"" ], [ "Definition", "Neuroqueer was initially conceptualized as a verb--''neuroqueering''--as a way of \"queering ... neurocognitive norms as well as gender norms\".", "Walker has indicated that, as a verb, ''neuroqueer'' \"refers to a broad range of interrelated practices\", and \"as an adjective, it describes things that are associated with those practices or that result from those practices\".", "Nick Walker, Athena Lynn Michaels-Dillon, and Remi Yergeau established the following eight integral components:# As an adjective, ''neuroqueer'' can refer to people who are \"both neurodivergent and queer, with some degree of conscious awareness and/or active exploration around how these two aspects of one’s being entwine and interact\".# As an adjective, ''neuroqueer'' means \"embodying and expressing one’s neurodivergence in ways that also queer one’s performance of gender, sexuality, ethnicity, and/or other aspects of one’s identity\".# As a verb, ''neuroqueer'' means \"engaging in practices intended to undo and subvert one’s own cultural conditioning and one’s ingrained habits of neuronormative and heteronormative performance, with the aim of reclaiming one’s capacity to give more full expression to one’s uniquely weird potentials and inclinations\".", "# As a verb, ''neuroqueer'' means \"engaging in the queering of one’s own neurocognitive processes (and one’s outward embodiment and expression of those processes) by intentionally altering them in ways that create significant and lasting increase in one’s divergence from prevailing cultural standards of neuronormativity and heteronormativity\".", "# As a verb, ''neuroqueer'' means \"approaching, embodying, and/or experiencing one’s neurodivergence as a form of queerness\".# As a verb, ''neuroqueer'' means \"producing literature, art, scholarship, and/or other cultural artifacts that foreground neuroqueer experiences, perspectives, and voices\".# As a verb, ''neuroqueer'' means \"producing critical responses to literature and/or other cultural artifacts, focusing on intentional or unintentional characterizations of neuroqueerness and how those characterizations illuminate and/or are illuminated by actual neuroqueer lives and experiences\".", "# As a verb, ''neuroqueer'' means \"working to transform social and cultural environments in order to create spaces and communities— and ultimately a society— in which engagement in any or all of the above practices is permitted, accepted, supported, and encouraged\".Although these core concepts have been described, Walker and others argue that the neuroqueer community often \"actively resists any authoritative definition\".", "As such, any \"conceptualization should not be viewed as comprehensive or definitive.", "Never static, the term neuroqueer is fluid, shifting, and always adapting\"." ], [ "Applications", "Neurodivergence has been pathologized and associated with various diagnosis, including autism, attention deficit-hyperactivity disorder, and specific learning differences, among others.", "Neuroqueer theory aims to depathologize such differences and as such, has implications across diverse sectors, including education and research.=== Education ===Because neurodivergence has been pathologized, educational institutions generally view neurodivergence as a deficit and focus on what students are not able to do or learn.", "Therefore, such institutions veer \"toward rehabilitative, behaviorist, and interventionist approaches, seeking to remediate students who do not perform in socially acceptable ways of acting, being, and learning in schools\".", "Similarly, educational research regarding neurodivergent individuals \"habitually emphasizes evidence-based practices to promote the improvement of students’ academic skills across content areas based on discrete measures of performance\".", "Neuroqueer theory rejects the pathologization of neurodivergence and thus \"rejects pedagogical approaches and research inquiries that seek to ‘fix’ students, so they present similarly to their ‘typical peers.’\" As Kleepkamp describes, \"future neuroqueer educational possibilities serve to reframe educational spaces, including higher education, for students at the intersections of normalized expectations related to gender, sexuality, and dis/ability\".", "Importantly, neuroqueer theory creates space for a wide range of research and pedagogical aspirations seeking to restory the experiences of students who have not often been centered as legitimate classroom actors nor honored for their unique educational contributions.", "In turn, to center and imagine from a neuroqueer perspective serves education in moving toward a more radically inclusive pedagogical and research future.=== Intersections of gender, sexuality, and disability ===Through popular media and research, dis/abled people are often viewed as asexual and agender, especially \"when they are unable to meet typical performative expectations\", as is common for neurodivergent people.", "This not only leads to the infantilization of dis/abled people but can also restrict access to certain communities, resources, and support; this is of especial concern for individuals who also identify as LGBT+." ], [ "Notable scholars", "* M.

time officially an independent critical judgment on the situation in the Kingdom.", "From June to August 1848 he was part of the Calabrian expedition with the column commanded by General Ferdinando Lanza that successfully forced the passage of the Crati (or San Martino) valley occupied by the insurgents.", "On this occasion Pianell distinguished himself, and Lanza reported this to his superiors (July 1848).In September 1848, following the events of the revolution, Pianell was again in Sicily where his 1st Riflemen Battalion participated in the reconquest of Messina.", "For this action the unit obtained a \"promotion of grace\" for every soldier of every rank from 1st sergeant to 1st lieutenant.", "Pianell himself, for the events of Palermo and Messina, was decorated with the Cross of Knight of the Royal Order of St. Ferdinand and of Merit (Nov. 24, 1848).As the revolutionary uprisings in Sicily continued, in April 1849 Pianell, who in the meantime had been promoted to lieutenant-colonel, found himself part of the expedition that moved from Messina with great success to reconquer Taormina and Catania.", "He was rewarded with the First Class Gold Medal and, the

and assigned to the 1st Line Regiment.", "In 1855 an episode unexpectedly interrupted his string of acclaim: King Ferdinand II of Bourbon, during an inspection of the barracks at San Potito, Naples, commanded by Pianell, gave credence to some of the soldiers' grievances, who complained about the food and superiors.", "Before them, Ferdinand ordered that Pianell be locked up for 15 days at Castel Sant'Elmo.It was probably a precautionary measure the sovereign took against the liberal ideas and autonomy of judgment of the colonel who, with his regiment, was then transferred to Gaeta.", "He remained there until the death of Ferdinand, who for years repeated, \"That young gentleman thinks too much... it is better to keep him away.", "\"Despite this, Pianell in December 1855 was promoted to general commander of the Gaeta brigade, and in July 1856, thanks to his future father-in-law, Count Costantino Ludolf, he received the news that he would become count by marrying the latter's daughter, Eleonora, to whom he was already engaged: the wedding was celebrated On August 6, 1856.Pianell's consort, Eleonora Ludolf, belonged to a family of diplomats who moved to Naples from Erfurt, Thuringia during the time of Charles of Bourbon.", "The Pianell couple lived peacefully through the years in Gaeta, during which the general devoted himself to service and to the military studies he would never again abandon.=== Lieutenant in Abruzzo (1859-1860) ===On May 20, 1859, Ferdinand II died in Caserta; he was succeeded to the throne by Francis II, who immediately had to deal with the important news of the time: the Duchy of Parma, the Duchy of Modena and Reggio and Romagna passed into the Piedmontese sphere of influence, while a Garibaldian army threatened the papal frontier.Francis II decided to recall Pianell from the Gaeta retreat and appointed him, on July 1, 1859, commander of the Nocera brigade that was garrisoned in Naples, at the Granili.", "As the political situation worsened, on September 21 he reconvened him at the Royal Palace of Portici and entrusted him with an army of twelve thousand soldiers to protect the northeastern borders of the Kingdom against the feared Garibaldi invasion.", "He also gave him full powers as Territorial Commander of the three Abruzzo provinces.On that occasion Pianell expressed to Francis II the need to grant free institutions that would satisfy the honest wishes of his people.", "On September 28, 1859 he left for Sulmona where he arrived the next day.The work of defense and reorganization in Abruzzo proved to be very demanding.", "The threat of invasion from the north, however, seemed averted as early as November, when the Piedmontese realized that raising a question in Europe about an attack on papal territory would have been politically foolish.", "Pianell, however, continued his work, reorganizing government and municipal offices, reforming justice and police personnel, plotting and commissioning public works for which he had both local personnel and soldiers work; and when he was recalled to Naples in July 1860, the people of Chieti and Ortona elected him an honorary citizen.==== Filangieri's resignation ====General Carlo Filangieri, in early 1860, resigned as Prime Minister and Minister of War.", "Pianell, who admired his former commander, also shared his political views.", "Both hoped for an alliance of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies with Piedmont and the proclamation of the Constitution.", "Filangieri resigned over disagreements with Francis II, and Pianell welcomed the news as \"the gravest misfortune for the country, for the army and for me.", "\"On February 15, 1860 Pianell complained of slander he had suffered; he was convinced, however, that something had to change.", "In March he wrote to his wife, \"One cannot remain eternally stationary.", "The world walks, and one must walk with it.", "A legitimate outlet must be given to the vital forces of society, under pain that they do not react covertly and, in the end, overflow.\"", "On April 19 of that same 1860, General Pianell was promoted to Field Marshal.==== Advice to Francis II ====In support of the Sicilian uprisings, Garibaldi landed at Marsala on May 11, 1860, and entered Palermo on the 30th.", "On June 25 Francis II finally granted the Constitution reactivating the one of 1848, announced an amnesty for political offenses and the formation of a new government headed by liberal Antonio Spinelli who, like Pianell, hoped for an alliance with Piedmont.After many difficulties, the Prime Minister formed his cabinet, assigning Giosuè Ritucci the Ministry of War, after Roberto de Sauget, the Prince of Ischitella (1788-1875) and Francesco Casella (1781-1875) had refused the post.During that period Pianell wrote several times to the government and the king.", "To Francis II he declared that to save the country it was necessary to implement the newly promulgated Constitution, accept a confederation of Italian states, and completely reorganize the army, focusing above all on discipline.On July 6, 1860, Francis II recalled Pianell from Abruzzo, who on the 13th, at a Council of War at which the king and Spinelli were also present, argued that the loss of Palermo had demoralized the troops and that from Messina it was at present impossible to get a reconquest of Sicily off the ground.", "Politically, he added, the continuation of hostilities would be counterproductive, and he urged a truce to forge an Italian League with Piedmont.", "The truce would also have the purpose of reorganizing the army and implementing the constitutional regime to gain the confidence of the progressives and ultimately attempt to reconquer Sicily.", "These ideas were validly supported by Foreign Minister Giacomo De Martino (1811-1877).=== Minister of War of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (1860) ===With the Constitution of June 1860, the Kingdom of Two Sicilies aspired to an agreement, to protect common interests, with Piedmont (Sardinia).The flag of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies after the proclamation of the Constitution in June 1860At this stage, the government, faced with the refusal of some garrisons to obey the Constitution feared a plot by reactionary courtiers and decided on a renewal in favor of more liberal personalities.", "The day after the War Council, July 14, 1860, Pianell was appointed Minister of War in place of Ritucci, and Liborio Romano replaced Interior Minister Federico Del Re.The Order of the Day issued by Pianell to the Neapolitan Army on July 15, 1860, concludes as follows: \"...", "The Officers ... and soldiers, have therefore in mind that the Constitutional King, the Italian Alliance, the Italian Flag, our own autonomy, now unite us in one family, in order thus to show that we are all the benefactors of these new institutions profitable to all, and particularly to those who are setting out on the glorious career of arms.", "\"The next day Francis II decorated Pianell with the Cross of Commander of the Order of Francis I for his services in Abruzzo.==== Operations in Sicily ====Consistent with his ideas, Pianell immediately gave orders to the commander of troops in Messina, General Tommaso Clary, to remain on the defensive.", "On July 14, he allowed the brigade commanded by Ferdinand Bosco to leave for Milazzo, which was threatened by Garibaldi's troops.", "After some clashes, on the 20th, Bosco was forced to fall back toward the Sicilian town.Pianell asked Clary, in vain, to march to Bosco's aid and transferred three foreign battalions and a Swiss battery to Castellammare to land behind the enemy.", "The reinforcements, however, could not be embarked on because of serious disagreements between Louis, Count of Aquila (Francis II's uncle) and the Bourbon navy.Once this attempt failed, which further demoralized the army, Pianell, in agreement with the rest of the government, decided to withdraw the troops from Milazzo and take them back to Naples.Moreover, taking advantage of France's proposal to Piedmont to impose an armistice on Garibaldi, he determined to withdraw the troops from Messina as well in order not to expose them to further defeat, and to favor the diplomats negotiating for the Italian League (which Pianell looked to with excessive hope).Nevertheless, Garibaldi did not agree with Piedmont, and General Clary was forced to negotiate the capitulation himself by handing over the city on July 28, 1860.The terms of surrender, however, allowed the troops from Messina to be embarked and assigned to the defense of Calabria.==== Attempts to reorganize the Army ====Having almost completely abandoned Sicily, Pianell focused on the continental reorganization of the Bourbon Army.", "He endeavored to provide the corps that had returned from Palermo with the necessary equipment, set standards of discipline in several departments, forced returnees to reach their destinations, rejected applications for leave or resignation, took care of promotions where needed, especially in the Engineer Corps, and increased the number of staff officers.For the returning officers from Palermo punished by the king with a forced retreat to Ischia, Pianell set up a Military Council to determine responsibilities and recover meritorious men and assign them to the defense of Calabria.", "The Military Junta, at the end of its investigation, declared that it had found no serious elements of guilt, so all the suspects were released and returned to Naples.", "Contrary to what he had hoped, Pianell found himself having to deal with a multitude of officers who said they were disgraced and discredited, some of whom wanted to be tried while others demanded their resignations.", "Some of them, however, were recovered and returned to duty.At court, meanwhile, insinuations by Francis of Bourbon, Count of Trapani accusing Pianell of having connections with revolutionary committees did not prevent the latter from continuing his work and forming the brigades and divisions of the new Continental Army.", "For the command-in-chief, Pianell decided on General Giambattista Vial, in view of the fact that he was young and educated, had not been involved in the events in Sicily, inspired confidence in the king and was not opposed by the troops.", "Above all, he was one of the few available.==== Conflicts with the generals ====The Count of Trapani, Pianell's most influential opponent at the Bourbon court.Vial gladly accepted the assignment, but not all commanders were enthusiastic.", "General Bartolo Marra telegraphed on August 2 complaining about the lack of instructions and topographical maps, and a few days later he sent a telegram in which, with disrespectful words, he considered himself relieved of command.", "The event caused quite a stir; Pianell had to reprimand the general, and the latter still responded insolently, until, on August 8, he was recalled to Naples and placed under arrest at Castel Sant'Elmo.In those same days, Pianell's former colleague Mariano d'Ayala, sent by Cavour to further the Italian cause, proposed to the Minister of War that the Bourbon army be turned over to Piedmont, and was refused.On August 19, 1860, evading the surveillance of the few ships of the Bourbon navy, Garibaldi crossed the Strait of Messina and landed south of Reggio Calabria.", "Wanting to take advantage of numerical superiority, Pianell and Francis II ordered attacks to be concentrated on the landed enemies; but Vial, from the first moment, lost contact with his generals, who, on the other hand, instead of keeping the troops together exhausted them in inconclusive marches.On August 21 Pianell, in a telegram, spurred Vial to attack:\"I receive your report of 10.25 a.m.", "I have to remark to you that it is no longer time to wait until necessity requires you to march.", "I earnestly beg you to concentrate the troop you have in hand, should you be well assured that you are the largest force landed between Scilla and Bagnara ... Do not cease to comply with the instructions you have received.", "\"==== Events in Calabria ====Meanwhile, rumors began to spread about contacts of senior Bourbon officers with the Garibaldians.", "Neapolitan Colonel Giuseppe Ruiz de Ballestreros telegraphed the king on August 22 that the brigades of Generals Nicola Melendez and Fileno Briganti had surrendered at Villa San Giovanni without firing a shot.", "The news, rightly deemed false, outraged Pianell and Francis II, who multiplied their efforts to call the commanders back to a sense of duty.Ruiz, who had announced his retreat, received a telegram from Pianell, which left the same day, August 22, at 6 p.m., ordering him to return and rejoin the bulk of the troops immediately.", "The next day Ruiz resigned his command.", "Meanwhile, Pianell was still inciting Vial, whom he had failed to replace, to attack with what was the last telegram, sent from Naples on August 23, 1860, to Calabria, as the Basilicata insurgents cut the telegraph line.Given the worsening situation, on the morning of the same August 23, Pianell asked Francis II if he could leave and assume command of the troops in Calabria.", "The king acceded to the proposal, but as soon as word spread that the Minister of War would be leaving Naples with a brigade, alarm spread that a revolt, ready for action, would break out in the capital.", "Preparations for departure proceeded, however, when a message came from Vial that eight steamships loaded with enemy troops were at Torre Faro ready to sail.", "Fearing a landing near the capital, Pianell's departure was suspended until the steamships' destination was known.Meanwhile, in Calabria, the situation deteriorated.", "General Melendez surrendered with three thousand men to Garibaldi on August 24, and General Briganti, who had fraternized with a Garibaldian acquaintance, in an attempt to reach Vial in plain clothes, was recognized and killed by his soldiers.", "At that point it became difficult to even maintain control of the troops.==== The extreme plan ====Pianell, who saw his plans for the defense of Calabria fading, devised another one for the defense of the capital, to be implemented near Salerno.", "This plan provided, in order to boost the morale of the soldiers, for the king to march with the troops.", "The elderly General Raffaele Carrascosa was enthusiastic about it, as was Francis II's consort, Maria Sophie of Bavaria (in favor of any plan of action).", "The general Prince of Ischitella, very close to the king, on the other hand, rejected it as did the neo-general Ferdinando Bosco.", "Both did not want Francis II to leave Naples, who eventually, undecided about what to do, gave up moving.==== Resignation ====Giuseppe Salvatore Pianell in the 1860s.Francis II of Bourbon, whose willingness to resist Pianell underestimated after his defeats south of Naples.Having again arranged Pianell's departure for Salerno where he was to take command of a division, Francis II, on the 27th again suspended it.", "At this point the government, unofficially, asked the king if he could resign since he had failed in his mission to have the Constitution peacefully accepted.Francis II stalled but when Liborio Romano and Pianell announced to him on the night of August 29-30 that they had uncovered a reactionary conspiracy and the king responded ironically, Pianell decided to insist on resignation no matter what.", "To get the entire government to agree to be replaced, on the 30th, Spinelli went to Francis II and found the Count of Trapani there, who accused the ministers, and especially Pianell, of lies and disloyalty.During these events, on August 30, completely surrounded, General Giuseppe Ghio's division also surrendered at Soveria Mannelli.On August 31 Pianell, determined to act even on his own, wrote a letter to the king (which he delivered to him on September 2) in which he declared himself de facto exonerated from his position as Minister of War.", "The next day, the government officially resigned.", "For opposite reasons, the Count of Trapani and the Count of Trani (who, however, returned to the ranks a few months later) also resigned from their military posts.A second letter from Pianell to Francis II, delivered on September 3, clearly explained the reasons for the resignations, which were mainly caused by the incompatibility between the general and the court environment.As he reveals in the memoirs and an 1877 letter addressed to Francis II but never sent, Pianell underestimated the king's willingness to resist.", "When Francis II spoke of leaving the capital, Pianell believed that he would eventually embark on the Spanish steamer Villa di Bilbao and leave for Spain.", "Similarly, Pianell underestimated the resistance of the remaining loyal Neapolitan troops.Having obtained leave of absence from the king, he left on September 5 by sea for France where his wife had relatives and where he spent several months nearly until the proclamation of the Kingdom of Italy.", "On March 2, 1861, with the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies dissolved, Pianell returned to Italy.=== Major general of the Italian Army (1861-1866) ===General Manfredo Fanti, probably the closest person to Pianell after his return to Italy in 1861.Two days after crossing the French-Piedmontese border, on March 4, 1861, Pianell had a long talk with Cavour and the next day with General Manfredo Fanti, who received him under his protection.", "On March 17 he obtained an appointment as lieutenant general in the Italian Army.", "In the following days in Milan and Bologna he had long and cordial talks with Alfonso La Marmora and Enrico Cialdini.", "On June 12 he passed into the active role as Inspector of Infantry.==== Accused on both sides ====On August 4, 1861 Pianell was appointed Commander of the Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus and had to defend himself against the accusations of the Democrats, who considered it inadmissible for a former Bourbon general to be decorated along with Medici, Bixio and Turr.", "On the other hand, in September, the French newspaper ''L'Ami de la Réligion'' accused Pianell and another former Bourbon general, Alessandro Nunziante, of being bribed by the Piedmontese government.", "Outraged, Pianell responded with a strong letter in the same newspaper rejecting the accusations.On October 26, 1861, he was appointed commander of the active 7th Division in Forli.", "The appointment aroused perplexity in some quarters, which did not consider Pianell, a former Bourbon minister who had not immediately joined the national cause, fit for the post.", "On February 4, 1862, in the Senate, Minister of War Alessandro Della Rovere defended the choice of appointment and together with General Fanti took Pianell's side, confirming the esteem he had for him.==== Member of Commissions ====On April 5, 1862 Pianell received the Cross of Grand Officer of the Order of Saints Maurice and Lazarus.", "In May he left for Turin as a member of the Commission for the Revision of the Recruitment Law, and on November 17 he passed to command the 19th Division in Alessandria.", "In August 1863 he was included in the Commission for the Revision of the Military Penal Code and assigned to inspect the commands in Alessandria, Genoa and Turin.", "In October he was a member of the Commission for the Revision of Honors and in February 1864 a member of a second Commission for the Revision of the Military Code.==== Toward the Battle of Custoza ====In the Battle of Custoza Pianell was in command of the 2nd Division, the only one, among the Italian divisions involved in the center of the battle, that held the position.After the alliance with Prussia was concluded, in April 1866 Italy prepared to attack Austria.", "On May 4 Pianell received command of the 2nd Division of General Giovanni Durando's Army Corps, stationed in Lodi.A few weeks before the start of hostilities, along with the other former Bourbon general Alessandro Nunziante, Pianell fell victim to a plan, probably hatched in papal Rome, that was aimed at fomenting unrest in the Italian Army's divisions.", "False reports were spread among the soldiers that General Nunziante had been shot for treason and Pianell had been arrested on the charge that he intended to hand over his division to the Austrians at the first opportunity.At the opening of hostilities on June 23, 1866, Pianell, with the 2nd Division deployed just north of Monzambano, had no orders other than to contain the Austrian garrison at the fortress of Peschiera, should it come out, and to protect the left flank of the rest of the 1st Army Corps that would cross the Mincio.Some Austrian outposts were made to fall back into the fortress; positions were taken on the road by which the Austrians could have attacked; and the other units of the 1st Corps crossed, undisturbed, the river.The next day, across the Mincio River, Italian troops clashed with Austrian troops.", "In the confusion only 7 divisions out of 21 deployed for the war by the Italians took part in the battle.", "Nevertheless, some Austrian divisions fell back to Verona, but all the Italian divisions engaged beat a retreat, often ruinous, in the face of the enemy counteroffensive.==== Custoza (June 24, 1866) ====Although distant, noticing the beginning of the battle, Pianell took the initiative by advancing several battalions and ordering the \"Siena\" Brigade to march on Monzambano.", "At the same time a large number of straggling soldiers from the other divisions were arriving from the eastern bank of the Mincio.", "Pianell, always holding his positions on the bridge road to guard against an attack from Peschiera, organized to drain off the fugitives and have the \"Siena\" Brigade cross the river and take up position east of Monzambano.Soon after, his Cavalleggeri Guide divisions attacked the slopes of Monte Rosso suffering heavy losses but putting the Croatian troops positioned there to flight.", "Turning his attention back to the infantry, noticing a hesitation in the 5th Regiment, Pianell joined it in the front line and reinvigorated its confidence.", "So did the 6th, which was repulsed three times by the Austrians, but which reached Pianell finding victory: the advanced troops of General Rupprecht's Austrian reserve division were put to flight or surrendered.Pianell's 2nd Division, which was nevertheless later ordered to fall back, was the only Italian division engaged in the Battle of Custoza to hold its position (on both sides of the Mincio River) and repel enemy forces that might have outflanked the left flank of the deployment.", "Pianell captured 560 Austrians including 8 officers and enabled and escorted the retreat from the 1st Division.", "As General Durando was wounded, he assumed command of the 1st Army Corps as the senior division general on June 25, 1866.Alfonso La Marmora, commander of the army where Pianell's division was framed, admitted in his report the valor of the former Bourbon general: \"The retreat was carried out without disorder, contributing essentially to it the opportune arrangements made by Generals Durando and Pianell.", "General Pianell ... alerted to the unfavorable turn of the combat in which the division of General Enrico Cerale was engaged, on his own initiative made a brigade with four pieces of artillery cross the Mincio, and arrived in time to stop the march of enemy columns that intended to turn to the left.", "He drove them back and took several hundred prisoners.", "\"=== General of Army Corps (1866-1892) ===Palazzo Carli in Verona, seat of military command, Pianell's residence and place of death.The undertaking of Monzambano spread throughout Italy and even beyond the Alps the fame of Pianell, who became one of the symbols of national unity.", "At the same time, the feat served to offset, at least in part, Italy's loss of prestige due to the defeat at Custoza.Continuing the state of war, the problem of the Austrian prisoners became burdensome in September 1866, whose distressing conditions were improved by Pianell, who had meanwhile moved his command to Treviso.", "The prisoners were moved to more spacious quarters, the ration was reorganized, arrangements were made for improved hygienic conditions, and they were provided with necessary clothing.", "A bocce court and other amusements to pass the time were even arranged.At the end of hostilities (October 3, 1866) due to agreements made earlier with France, Austria had to cede Venetia to Italy, and Pianell's 1st Army Corps was given the task of occupying the region.", "In mid-October Pianell was appointed commander of the Department of Verona (rank corresponding to General of Army Corps), and on November 7, 1866, he took part in the ceremonies of Victor Emmanuel II's takeover of Venice.", "A month later he was decorated with the Cross of Grand Officer of the Military Order of Savoy for the initiative taken at the Battle of Custoza.", "On the same day, December 8, he refused Cialdini's offer to him of the post of Minister of War.==== Deputy ====On May 17, 1867, Pianell's election to the Chamber of Deputies for the seat of the 1st College of Naples (Chiaia District) was validated by ballot.", "He began, therefore, to participate in parliamentary work in Florence, then the capital of the Kingdom.", "Joining the Historical Right, he fought, in vain, against the abolition of the Army's territorial Grand Commands and the Ecclesiastical Axis Law.", "Although, then, the government headed by Leftist Rattazzi, accepted his proposals to enhance troop training.==== The trip to Central Europe ====The monument to Pianell erected in Verona's Via Piave gardens.Pianell commanding forces in northern ItalyAfter receiving from Austria the title of Commander of the Imperial Order of Leopold in March 1867, and also turning down Menabrea's offer of the post to Minister of War (October 1867), Pianell, in the summer of 1868, left for a trip of military interest to Austria and Prussia.The general began the trip in Munich and proceeded to Steyr, Austria, where he visited rifle factories.", "On July 23 in Vienna he met War Minister Kuhn and in the following days visited the large Franz-Joseph barracks, the Geographical Office, the Central Cavalry School, and the Arsenal, where he became interested in the Gatling gun, the forerunner of the machine gun.In early August he witnessed the maneuvers of the Hussars, and in Tulln he visited the Engineer Barracks and a railroad plant.", "In the following days he traveled to Budapest, Prague, and Dresden.", "On August 26, 1868, he arrived in Berlin, where on the 31st he witnessed, the first Italian general, the maneuvers of the Prussian Army, which surprised him by their vivacity and precision.", "On the same day he was received by both King Wilhelm and the heir to the throne Frederick, who had liberal ideas, with whom he held long and cordial talks and with whom he left in mid-September to attend military maneuvers in Pomerania for three days.Back in Verona Pianell, in late November, was awarded the Prussian Order of the Red Eagle, 1st class.==== Commander of the forces in northern Italy ====As part of the reorganization of military units, Pianell was notified on July 2, 1869, of his appointment as commander of the 2nd Army Corps, with jurisdiction over all of northern Italy.", "On January 14, 1870, the general went on an institutional trip to Naples, where, with Prince Umberto, he attended a gala evening at the Royal Palace, the former home of the Bourbons, on February 7.Back in Verona, as the Franco-Prussian War broke out, Pianell was urgently summoned to Florence to replace War Minister Govone, who had had serious nervous problems; once again he firmly refused.", "After the seizure of Rome in November 1870, Pianell suffered a defeat in the elections for the Chamber of Deputies in Naples, but in 1871 he was appointed senator for life at the behest of Victor Emmanuel II.==== Last years ====In 1882 Pianell, as commander of the Northern Italian forces, successfully organized and led relief efforts for the Verona and Polesine floods.", "In gratitude, the Verona city council appointed him an honorary citizen, and in 1887 he was awarded the highest honor of the Kingdom of Italy: the Collar of the Most Holy Annunciation.", "He asked for, but was never granted, a leave of absence.He fulfilled, then, his duty to the very end: on March 20, 1892, on the occasion of the annual parade in Verona for King Umberto I's birthday, despite the persistent rain, he stood motionless on horseback waiting for all the departments involved to parade.", "A few days later, in his apartment in Palazzo Carli, also the seat of the military headquarters, he took to his bed with bronchitis, and on April 5, 1892, after receiving his last rites, he passed away among his family, at just over 73 years of age." ], [ "Honors", "=== Bourbon honors === Order of Saint Ferdinand and of Merit - ribbon for ordinary uniform Order of Saint
