There are lost in academia that are hard to accept. I am so sad to know one of the best historians ever, has died. Carlo Ginzburg has gone, but his legacy will be for very long present. www.ilpost.it/2026/06/17/c...

È morto lo storico Carlo Ginzburg

Fu uno degli studiosi italiani più tradotti e conosciuti all'estero, per i suoi lavori sulle classi subalterne medievali e moderne: aveva 87 anni
