  First World War.com - Who's Who - Sidney Sonnino
Giorgio Sidney Sonnino (1847-1922) was born in Pisa on 11 March 1847.
The July Crisis of 1914 saw Sonnino arguing strongly for Italian involvement in the coming war as an ally of Germany and Austria-Hungary.
At the secret April 1915 Treaty of London Sonnino (and Prime Minister Salandra) secured British and French agreement to the annexation of Austro-Hungarian territory at the close of hostilities on the basis that Italy enter the war with the Allies.

  Sonnino   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
Sonnino, a man of the right, had served as a chief critic of the modernizing policies of the latter 19th and early 20th centuries; yet, he favored universal manhood suffrage, labor legislation, and other progressive measures.
Sonnino was accorded equal voice in the choosing of a new cabinet and took the Foreign Ministry portfolio.
In August, Sonnino had favored Italy's entering the war as an ally of Germany and Austria-Hungary; but, soon he came to support the view that pro-Entente intervention would be necessary, if Italy could not gain substantial concessions from Austria-Hungary under terms of their pre-war alliance.

Baron Giorgio Sidney Sonnino (March 11, 1847 - November 24, 1922) was an italian politician.
After the events in 1914, Sonnino was initially supportive to the German and Austria-Hungary side, but after becoming foreign minister in November 1914, he sided with the Allied forces, and signed the Treaty of London in 1915.
When his territorial ambitions towards Austria-Hungary were shattered during the Paris Peace Conference, his party lost power again, and Sonnino retired from politics.

In company with the last-named, Sonnino undertook an expedition to southern Italy and to Sicily, the result being a joint publication in which was embodied Sonnino's treatise "I Contadini di Sicilia," on the peasants of the latter place.
In both of these treatises Sonnino shows his intimate acquaintance with economic conditions, and his deep interest in the welfare of the poorer classes.
During Perazzi's ministry Sonnino filled the office of assistant secretary of state in the department of finance; and from 1893 to 1896 he held the portfolio of finance in Crispi's cabinet.

Both Britain and France were bound further by their agreements with Italy, by commitments in the Near East, and so on.
The Italian prime minister, Vittorio Orlando, played a secondary role, but the foreign minister, Sidney Sonnino, stood forth as an unbending champion of Italian claims against Austria and against the new Yugoslav state.
The plenary sessions of the conference were of little significance, for the decisions rested from the start with the Supreme Council, the Big Ten, composed of President Wilson and the prime ministers and foreign ministers of the five chief powers (Wilson, Lansing, Lloyd George, Balfour, Clemenceau, Pichon, Orlando, Sonnino, Saionji, Makino).

 Francesco Crispi
At Palermo, in April and May of 1894, the trials against the central committee of the Fasci took place and this was the final blow that signalled the death knell of the movement of the Fasci Siciliani.
Crispi steadily supported the energetic remedies adopted by Barone Sidney Sonnino, minister of finance, to save Italian credit, which had been severely shaken the financial crisis of 1892-1893.
Crispi's uncompromising suppression of disorder, and his refusal to abandon either the Triple Alliance or the Eritrean colony, or to forsake his colleague Giorgio Sidney Sonnino, caused a breach between him and the radical leader Felice Cavallotti.

Moreover, the farm still owns several documents, which are proof of various innovations in the wine-producing and agricultural fields, pioneered at the beginning of the 20th century, when farmers started to produce wine and oil in a more modern and scientific way compared to the rest of Italy.
All the vineyards are located in the vicinity of the Sonnino Castle and only the grapes from these vineyards are used to produce the wines of the farm winery.

Under Sonnino's direction, Italy negotiated the Pact of London with the Entente governments, which traded Italy's entry in the war for territorial gains in Istria (but not Fiume), the Trentino, Dalmatia, and elsewhere, and for British financial assistance in prosecuting the war.
Salandra was succeeded by Paolo Boselli, who had served in a Sonnino cabinet in 1906 and who formed a broader government coalition than Salandra's.

 The View from Vesuvius: Introduction
Yet the emergence of the Southern Question and the writings of Leopoldo Franchetti and Sidney Sonnino in particular prompted Verga to subject that picturesque vision to a powerful critique.
Verga’s representation of Sicily is characterized by a continuous experimentation with these alternative perspectives on the south, as well as by an ongoing engagement with the question of perspective itself.
A key exception is the earlier work of the literary critic Romano Luperini, who showed the interconnections between Verga’s fiction and the southernist investigations of Franchetti and Sonnino.

The diaries, which are edited in a narrative framework in part two, trace the evolution of the group and indicate its leader's shifting focus of interest among her intimate friends.
Understanding of Emilia's relationships with Edmondo De Amicis and Vilfredo Pareto is corroborated and expanded; friendships with Heinrich Homberger, Ruggero Bonghi, Sidney Sonnino, Eugene Rendu, Francesco Genala, Isidoro Del Lungo among others are brought to light.
The diaries trace the responses of an educated, eclectic female elite near the political and intellectual nexus of Italian life to domestic and international events and cultural movements; thus the study addresses a neglected perspective on Risorgimento and post-Risogimento history.
