Vie Lombarde e Venete : Circolazione e trasformazione dei saperi letterari nel Sette-Ottocento fra l'Italia settentrionale e l'Europa transalpina (Reihe der Villa Vigoni Band 24) (2011. VII, 321 S. 230 mm)

This collective volume deals with the reception and assimilation of different forms of knowledge in Northern Italy in the 18th and early 19th centuries. This knowledge originated in Germany, Austria and France and was communicated through literature. The aim of this book is to show the European significance of Northern Italy as hub of cultural mediation and assimilation processes a role which has received little attention until now.
