Guglielmo Marconi was faced with the contrasts, the difficulties, the obstacles that pioneers meet in all fields of human activity. His discovery, like other great discoveries, did not have at its dawn a peaceable and tranquil acknowledgement. The Marconian conquest represents the highest praise for brilliant, studious and enterprising youths.
