Reviews

Well-researched and highly elaborated argument ... . welcome and valuable additions to the field of Italian and Mediterranean studies. They deserve high praise for their interdisciplinarity and for providing useful tools for addressing the issues with which they are concerned. ... The most fascinating parts in Fogu's book are not where he delves into theory but where he considers specific historical episodes, sites, persons, or objects. (Konstantina Zanou, Italian American Review, Vol. 11 (2), 2021)
