The history of Polish studies at the University of Turin is rooted in the activities of Piedmontese Polonophiles, primarily Attilio Begey (1846–1928), a Turin lawyer and politician involved in the development of the Italian Christian-Democratic movement, and a supporter of A. Mickiewicz and A. Towiański.
