Over 50 hours of seminars are planned for the next series of seminars for the PhD program in Historical Sciences at the University of the Republic of San Marino, entitled "Intellectuals and Power: From the Classical Polis to the Age of Globalization." Spread across 18 days between June 4th and 28th, the sessions will feature academics from the universities of Bari, Pisa, Milan, London, Trento, Rome, Bologna, Perugia, Florence, and Turin, as well as the University of Molise. Among other topics, the seminars will address the birth of mass culture between 1850 and 1920, the globalization of capitalism after 1850, and the choices and compromises of European intellectuals in the postwar period of the twentieth century.
The inaugural lecture, scheduled for next Tuesday, will be delivered by historian Andrea Giardina, a professor at the Scuola Normale Superiore in Pisa and the initiator of the appeal "History is a common good, let's save it," launched together with Italian Senator for Life Liliana Segre and writer Andrea Camilleri. His lecture is scheduled for 4:00 PM at the university's former courthouse, located at Via Salita alla Rocca 44, in the historic center of San Marino. Following this, at 6:30 PM, the presentation of the fourth title in the "Historical Criticism" series by the Department of History of the University of San Marino, titled "Political Processes," will take place. The presentation of the project, edited by Giorgio Fabre and published by Il Mulino, will include historian Luciano Canfora, the Rector of the University of San Marino Corrado Petrocelli, and Massimo Mastrogregori, author of several of the essays included in the text. Admission is free.
