  History is a common good

  4th National Conference of the Italian Association of Public History

  In line with the Italian Public History Manifesto, approved after our association’s meeting in Pisa in June 2018, AIPH intends to contribute to the affirmation of a greater awareness of the value of historical knowledge, an essential resource for understanding the present, planning of the future and exercising full citizenship. The 4th AIPH National Conference of Venice-Mestre will create new opportunities for discussion and reflection between those who work with the past. The conference will examine ways in which history is present in society today, from universities to public places, in schools and learning institutions, in high and in popular culture and, finally, in the daily life of our communities.

  Seminar - Middle Ages

  Lingue, saperi e conflitti nell’Italia medievale

  Il seminario si inserisce nel progetto di ricerca BIFLOW - Bilingualism in Florentine and Tuscan Works  (ca. 1260 - ca. 1416) [H2020 Erc Starting Grant n. 637533] diretto da Antonio Montefusco e intende indagare la cultura italiana del Basso Medioevo. Risulta caratteristica di questa stagione una peculiare articolazione fra luoghi del sapere (università, studia mendicanti, gruppi informali), protagonisti della disseminazione culturale (spesso personalità non immediatamente inquadrabili nelle istituzioni della formazione), forme e generi letterari di tale disseminazione, nonché loro forma linguistica (spiccatamente bilingue). Nel seminario, si indagheranno una serie significativa di case studies che rientrano in questo quadro, dando particolare rilevanza a tradizioni che si sono sviluppate attraverso lingue differenti, dando particolare risalto a fenomeni di traduzione/volgarizzamento, perché particolarmente significativi della forma mentis intellettuale del periodo.

  Venetian Commodities, 13th-16th centuries

  What are "Venetian" commodities? More than any other medieval or early modern city, Venice lived off of the trade of portable goods. In addition to trading foreign imports, the city also engaged in intense local production, manufacturing high quality glass, crystal, cloth, metal, enamel, leather, and ceramic objects, characterized by their exceedingly rich forms and complex production processes. Today, these objects are scattered in collections throughout the world, but little remains in Venice itself. In individual instances, it is often difficult to tell whether the objects in question were actually made in Venice or if they originated in Byzantine, Islamic, or other European contexts.
