    Description: This open access book explores the transnational and transoceanic dimensions of the debate on gender and women's cultural agency and mediation in the long eighteenth century. It aims to decenter perspectives on traditional Enlightenment geographies, by emphasizing cultural transfers between Southern Europe and the rest of Europe, as well as with the Americas; by focusing on a variety of cultural mediators—women authors, female (and male) translators, readers, travelers, and disseminators; and by examining diverse written and visual sources—from correspondence, travel narratives, and philosophical essays, to novels, opera, portraits.

    Description: On the eve of the fall of the Wall, the European Community is a mature and evolving reality, already able to compete commercially with the United States and grappling with the complex design of the great Single market. At the same time, it has developed political ambitions, with the first forms of foreign policy coordination between Member States, and the start of the long road towards Economic and Monetary Union. Lorenzo Natali (1922-1989) is one of the least known protagonists of this story. Since the birth of the Communities with the Treaties of Rome, and in the following thirty years he accompanied with his political career the fundamental steps of European construction, first as a minister and, from the late Seventies, as Italian commissioner in Brussels, the longest in terms of term of office. He and the Directorates-General he leads are responsible for some of the most significant achievements of that political season, from the conclusion of the great enlargement to the South to the implementation of the Community's first environmental policy, ending to the consolidation of a fruitful and equal dialogue between Europe and the global South. This book aims to give a first glimpse of light on his figure and his political action.

    Description: Alla vigilia della caduta del Muro, la Comunità europea è una realtà matura e in piena evoluzione, già in grado di competere sul piano commerciale con gli Stati Uniti, e alle prese con la complessa progettazione del grande mercato unico. Ha al contempo sviluppato ambizioni di natura politica, con le prime forme di coordinamento della politica estera tra Stati membri, e l’avvio del lungo percorso verso l’Unione economica e monetaria. Lorenzo Natali (1922-1989) è un protagonista tra i meno conosciuti di questa storia. Presente sin dall’atto di nascita delle Comunità, nei trent’anni seguenti accompagna con il suo percorso politico i passaggi fondamentali della costruzione europea, dapprima come ministro e dai tardi anni Settanta come commissario italiano a Bruxelles, il più longevo per durata d’incarico. A lui si devono in particolare alcuni dei traguardi più importanti di quella stagione, dalla realizzazione del grande allargamento a Sud all’implementazione della prima politica ambientale della Ce, fino al consolidamento di un dialogo paritario allacciato tra l’Europa e il Sud globale. Questo libro intende restituire un primo squarcio di luce sulla sua figura e la sua azione politica

    Description: This open access book provides a multifold exploration of how people in early modern Europe understood, conducted, and actively used private conversations. From sharing personal matters to discussing delicate secrets, all layers of early modern society had their motives for wanting to keep certain exchanges out of public eyes and ears, and ways of trying to achieve this. Detecting such instances in historical sources typically becomes a complex pursuit, full of subtle references that require creative approaches, especially when it comes to more informal practices. Yet, in a reading against the grain, different sources can offer us hints of how conversations took place in private. The book consists of a historiographical and methodological introduction to the study of private conversations, followed by ten case studies from a variety of cities, villages, and countryside across early modern Europe. The concluding epilogue suggests some pathways to further explore the terrain of how people have talked in private in past societies.

    Description: Il decimo volume delle Metamorfosi dei Lumi è dedicato a indagare il complesso fenomeno dell’emergenza del sentimento negli anni del Tournant des Lumières (1780-1820). Nonostante il Settecento sia sempre ricordato come il secolo della ragione, esso avvertì al contempo dolorosamente i limiti della razionalità stessa, intavolando un’inedita discussione sulla dimensione passionale. Precedentemente condannato come un fattore di turbamento della ragione, un malcelato residuo di animalità, il sentimento diventa la chiave di volta non solo della riflessione etica tardo settecentesca (caratterizzata dal fiorire della morale sentimentalista in opposizione al razionalismo cartesiano), ma anche il cuore di una nuova retorica incentrata sul patetico e di una riflessione politica che individua nella natura passionale dell’essere umano uno dei tratti dirimenti della sua socievolezza.

    Description: The volume Contro Bernardino. Processi al maestro Amedeo Landi is the result of the discovery of unpublished documentation on the trials - only partly known - against the abacus master Amedeo Landi, who taught the Milanese merchants at the Broletto. This is an exceptional case not only because only one witness to the activity of the Milanese inquisitorial court in the Middle Ages (whose documentation has been entirely lost) was known until now, but also because of the role of the ecclesiastical court and its officials. The wealth of information and themes has prompted a team effort by the professors of the Department of Historical Studies to clarify the many aspects (political, religious, economic, documentary) of an event that shows the vitality of 15th-century Milan, in which the protagonist, the teacher Amedeo Landi, in an attempt to protect his students, clashes with the most important preacher of his time, Brother Bernardino of Siena, whose canonisation process is temporarily blocked precisely to shed light on the Milanese episode.
    Description: Published
    Description: Il volume Contro Bernardino. Processi al maestro Amedeo Landi nasce dal ritrovamento di documentazione inedita riguardo ai processi – solo in parte noti – contro il maestro d’abaco Amedeo Landi che insegnava ai mercanti milanesi presso il Broletto. Si tratta di un caso eccezionale non solo perché finora si conosceva un solo testimone dell’attività del tribunale inquisitoriale milanese nel medioevo (la cui documentazione è andata interamente perduta), ma anche per il ruolo del tribunale ecclesiastico e dei suoi funzionari. La ricchezza delle informazioni e dei temi ha suggerito un lavoro d’équipe dei docenti del Dipartimento di studi storici per chiarire i molteplici aspetti (politici, religiosi, economici, documentari) di una vicenda che mostra la vitalità della Milano quattrocentesca, in cui il protagonista, il maestro Amedeo Landi, nel tentativo di tutelare i suoi studenti si scontra con il più importante predicatore del suo tempo, frate Bernardino da Siena, il cui processo di canonizzazione viene momentaneamente bloccato proprio per fare luce sull’episodio milanese.

    Description: This chapter explores the transmission of tales of the supernatural during the very long eighteenth century (between c.1660 and c.1832). A genre of publications on this subject which have not been studied are those anthologies of supposedly true stories, usually relating to named people and places and sometimes dated, often each numbered separately, with relatively little discussion of their authenticity or significance, beyond perhaps a brief preface defending the reality of the world of spirits. A series of entrepreneurial publishers, mostly operating from Paternoster Row in London, experimented with anthologising these stories in varied combinations. Any attempt to analyse the stories must begin by unravelling the publishing history by which they were transmitted and (not fully studied here) modified and retold, as well as re-interpreted.
