Publisher: Basil Blackwell.

Details: cm.15x22,8, pp.X,276, brossura, cop.fig. (piccolo timbro di appartenenza al frontespizio ma buon esemplare.)

Abstract: The author builds on the pioneering work of Peter Laslett, Emmanuel Le Roy Ladurie, Georges Duby, Lawrence Stone, Jack Goody and Alan Macfarlane, to produce a book that is aimed at historians, sociologists and anthropologists. The book applies the concepts developed by anthropologists working in the field to very different, indeed almost intractable evidence of historical documents. It is the triumph of the book to demonstrate that despite all the problems, it is possible in a realistic and reliable way to develop an analysis of the kinship system as a whole from documents that only describe individual human relationships. Only in this way, Plakans believes, can historians begin to reflect a central element in the experience not of elites but of the masses of ordinary people - the ties of kinship. "Kinship in the Past" outlines both the difficulties and the advantages of using anthropolgical concepts in historical work in order for the first time to provide a solid basis for important future work.

A cura di Irene Palombo e Mauro Tosti Croce. Roma, Viella 2008, cm.14,5x21, pp.280, brossura. Coll.La Memoria Restituita. Fonti per la Storia delle Donne. Un epistolario inedito ci permette di delineare la figura di Violante Camporese Giustiniani, grande soprano del primo Ottocento. Attraverso le lettere è possibile ricostruire non solo le tappe di una brillante carriera internazionale nel segno del grande repertorio mozartiano e rossiniano, ma anche il percorso privato di una nobildonna che, costretta dalle circostanze a esercitare la professione teatrale, prende consapevolezza della dignità del suo nuovo ruolo.
