Author
Il Contemporaneo is documented in Fuller’s letters and published essays (1848). No work is named in the surviving passages, most often in Letter to Mr. Page, and the most intensive engagement recorded is “translated”.
Reprints, Memoirs passages, and repeat notes within a single manuscript are shown but never counted twice. Evidence for this author is selective, not exhaustive. Methodology →
“Dr Masi, editor of the Contemporaneo, is desirous to make exchanges with some leading newspapers of the U.S. I know any of them would be much interested to receive his paper as the organ of the new movement in the Papal States.”
This page brings together documented engagements currently identified within the Fuller Reading Worlds catalog.

Hudspeth identified it as founded in early 1847 as "a voice of moderate reform" in Rome, becoming increasingly radical and hostile toward the pope.
