A number of writers from the USA lived in Italy during the years of the unification of Italy, both during the years of the Roman Republic and after Rome had become the capital of the Kingdom of Italy. Among the most important figures were William Dean Howells, Margaret Fuller, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Mark Twain and Henry James. In some of their writings, these authors discuss several aspects of Rome, taking into consideration especially the artistic importance of the city, but also and inevitably its social and political relevance in the Risorgimento
