Title: Il manualismo nella sociologia italiana tra Otto e Novecento 
(Sociology textbooks in Italy between the nineteenth and twentieth centuries)
Abstract: This article succinctly examines the major textbooks in use in Italy in the field of sociology between
the nineteenth and the early twentieth centuries. In particular, the analysis centers around the conditions
that helped the discipline to reach an astonishing success between 1880 and 1910, but also 
prevented it from becoming permanent part of the social science curriculum. Sociology’s failure to
become academically significant in those years (a situation partially solved in the 1920s and ultimately
worked out after WW II) is a crucial element to be considered when investigating the (quantitative
and\or qualitative) characteristics of the textbooks of the time
