I'm really partial to Acers & Laven's book "The Italian Gambit System."
While it focuses on a slightly unusual move-order (1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6
3.Bc4 bc5 4.d4!?) several replies transpose into main-line Italian stuff
- and there are several well-annotated games.

thank you very much or your answer. I'm looking for deeply annotated
games (italian game opening). probably my english was not so clear...

The Italian Game is characterized by these moves:
1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4
Black's then chooses between:
... Nf6, the Two Knights Defense
... Bc5, the Giuoco Piano
... Be7, the Hungarian Defense
... d6, Philidor's Defense
The Giuoco Piano leads to a tactically sharp game and is recommended
for players trying to improve their skills. In the main line, White
tries to control the center with d4! or attack the Black king via f7.
... 4. b4, the Evan's Gambit (... Bxb4 5. c3 Ba5 6. d4)
... 4. c3, the main line (... Nf6 5. d4 exd4 6. cxd4 Bb4+)
In the main line, White has options for his seventh move.
7. Bd2 Bxd2 8. Nbxd2 d5 9. exd4 Nxd4, the main line
7. Nc3 Nxe4 8. O-O Bxc3 9. d5, the Moller Attack
Don't play d3--it leads to passive games. d4 is more exciting and helps
you focus on tactics--those are what really count in chess.
