On January 2024, in front of an audience of 8,000 spectators at the Vitrifrigo Arena, Sergio Mattarella, the President of the Italian Republic, officially inaugurated Pesaro, a port city on the Adriatic coast, as Italy's “Capital of Culture”. On 20 July the same year, an event will be held at Montemaggiore al Metauro, about 25kms south of Pesaro, to commemorate the visit of Winston Churchill, the British Prime Minister, to Allied Forces who had succeeded in taking control of the German-controlled area. As I have been invited to give a presentation at this event with Nicoletta Maggi, an Italian journalist, I decided to research the stories about Pesaro that appeared in the English-speaking newspapers in Britain, India, the West Indies, the United States, Australia and Tasmania. A search of the newspaper archives of the British, Australian and American libraries revealed about 2,000 articles mentioning Pesaro. I quickly learned that as well as the city, there were people, ships and even horses called Pesaro. To give the reader a greater understanding of how Pesaro has been reported on in the English-speaking press, I have compiled a selection of articles from the 18th to the 21st century.
