Libri, storie, persone e parole fra Venezia e la Grecia. Miscellanea di scritti in memoria di Mario Vitti

Passing through the Heptanese and on the route to Constantinople, dominating Candia, Cyprus and the other outposts in the Levant, the Republic of Venice left its mark on the modern Greek world for many centuries. In the shadow of Saint Mark's banner, relations between the two worlds, exchanges and the dense network of contacts that contributed to the development of knowledge were natural and odvious. Stories of encounters, animated by events, people, books and words that have left deep traces on the path of history are partly retraced and recounted in this volume dedicated to the memory of the illustrious Hellenist Mario Vitti (1926-2023).
