Résumé anglais Andrea Graziosi, "Letters front Kharkov" . The famine in the Ukraine and Northern Caucasus through the reports sent by the Italian diplomats, 1932-1934. The reader is presented with a selection of the reports sent to Rome by the Italian ambassador in Moscow and by the consuls and viceconsuls in Kharkov, Batum and Novorossijsk between 1932 and 1934. But for four exceptions, these documents had never been published before. The originals, written in Italian, are in the Archives of the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Collectivization and the famine in the Ukraine and in the Kuban, 1932-1934, are the events they describe and, given their uniqueness and their exceptional quality, it can be said that these reports form at present one of the most important available source on those tragic phenomena. The problems they present to the Soviet historian are briefly discussed in the introduction, which also inform on the people who wrote them and on the conditions in which they were written.
