Vittorio Gorresio (18 July 1910 – 17 December 1982) was an Italian Journalist-commentator and essayist. After he died, an admirer commended the complete originality of his approach. He was a political reporter who wanted to offer readers something more than mere information, albeit on a basis that was both timely and truthful, employing facts for which he was happy to serve as guarantor. He always took great care to provide an instantly "historical" portrayal of matters about which he wrote. This was achieved through an exceptionally broad and deep personal knowledge of the political world, but his work was also spiced with an elegant almost Anglo-Saxon style of humour, and supported by total independence in his judgements.
