History


There are no known archaeological finds for the Imbersago area. In the surrounding area, however, human frequentations are known starting from the middle Paleolithic. In the area the Celts took over the pile-dwelling settlements, subjected in turn by the Romans.

The medieval history of Imbersago sees the town lined up in favor of the Guelphs, and as a point of contact between the area of Milan and the Republic of Venice.


Society



Languages and dialects


In addition to the Italian language, in Imbersago is also used the local Brianza dialect, a variant of the Lombard language. Like all western Lombard dialects, local Brianza dialect is also substantially a Romance language derived from Latin.[3]

Currently, the use of this dialect is slowly regressing, although to a lesser extent than other Lombard dialects, especially those spoken in the cities.[4]


Religion


Most of the population, as in all of Italy, belongs to the Catholic Church, and belongs to the three churches located in the parish: the church of San Marcellino, the church of San Paolo, and the Sanctuary of Madonna del Bosco. All three churches belong to the Archdiocese of Milan and follow the Ambrosian rite.


Culture



Imbersago in literature


Emilio De Marchi set his work Giacomo l’idealista in Imbersago, and could not help but mention the Sanctuary providing a fairly accurate description. A film of the same name was made from the book in 1948, directed by Alberto Lattuada and interpreted by Marina Berti. Luigi Santucci also talked about it in his book Brianza ed altri amori.[5]

Impossible to forget I promessi sposi, written by Alessandro Manzoni, who cross the Adda in Imbersago.

Ermanno Olmi's film E venne un uomo, centered on the figure of Pope Giovanni XXIII, was shot in part in Imbersago, and to be precise in the Garavesa area and at the Sanctuary.
