Depuis le début de sa carrière, Pierre Milza est un passeur de frontières dans toutes les acceptions du mot, géographique et linguistique, académique et thématique. Il a ainsi construit une œuvre historique originale, féconde, en perpétuelle évolution, dans des domaines aussi divers que l'histoire de l'Italie, l'histoire de l'immigration et des relations internationales, l'histoire politique et culturelle, en particulier celle des fascismes et des extrêmes droites. En tant qu'enseignant et auteur de manuels du secondaire et du supérieur, il a aussi marqué des générations de lycéens et d'étudiants, particulièrement à Sciences Po. En rassemblant des textes inédits, dont les auteur(e)s ont pour la plupart mené leur doctorat sous sa direction, ce volume se propose de donner un aperçu du rayonnement de Pierre Milza sur l'historiographie contemporaine et de rendre hommage au caractère foisonnant, inventif et multiforme de ses travaux.

This book chronicles the demise of the supposedly leftist Italian cultural establishment during the long 1980's. During that time, the nation's literary and intellectual vanguard managed to lose the prominence handed it after the end of World War II and the defeat of Fascism. What emerged instead was a uniquely Italian brand of cultural capital that deliberately avoided any critical questioning of the prevailing order. Ricciardi criticizes the development of this new hegemonic arrangement in film, literature, philosophy, and art criticism. She focuses on several turning points: Fellini's futile, late-career critique of Berlusconi-style commercial television, Calvino's late turn to reactionary belletrism, Vattimo's nihilist and conservative responses to French poststructuralism, and Bonito Oliva's movement of art commodification, Transavanguardia.

The pompa circensis, the procession which preceded the chariot races in the arena, was both a prominent political pageant and a hallowed religious ritual. Traversing a landscape of memory, the procession wove together spaces and institutions, monuments and performers, gods and humans into an image of the city, whose contours shifted as Rome changed. In the late Republic, the parade produced an image of Rome as the senate and the people with their gods - a deeply traditional symbol of the city which was transformed during the empire when an imperial image was built on top of the republican one. In late antiquity, the procession fashioned a multiplicity of Romes: imperial, traditional, and Christian. In this book, Jacob A. Latham explores the webs of symbolic meanings in the play between performance and itinerary, tracing the transformations of the circus procession from the late Republic to late antiquity.

"The central aim of this interdisciplinary book is to make visible the intentionality behind the 'forgetting' of European women's contributions during the period between the two world wars in the context of politics, culture and society. It also seeks to record and analyse women's agency in the construction and reconstruction of Europe and its nation states after the First World War, and thus to articulate ways in which the writing of women's history necessarily entails the rewriting of everyone's history. By showing that the erasure of women's texts from literary and cultural history was not accidental but was ideologically motivated, the essays explicitly and implicitly contribute to debates surrounding canon formation. Other important topics are women's political activism during the period, antifascism, the contributions made by female journalists, the politics of literary production, genre, women's relationship with and contributions to the avant-garde, women's professional lives, and women's involvement in voluntary associations. In bringing together the work of scholars whose fields of expertise are diverse but whose interests converge on the inter-war period, the volume invites readers to make connections and comparisons across the whole spectrum of women's political, social, and cultural activities throughout Europe."--Provided by publisher.
