Change and Resilience
Change and Resilience offers a view of the main Mediterranean islands from West to East in Late Antiquity because Mediterranean islands can contribute in fundamental ways to our understanding not only of earlier colonizations but also later periods. The volume explores specifically the time frame from the fall of the Roman empire to the Medieval period. A first group of papers covers islands and island groups in the Central and Western Mediterranean, including the Balearic Islands, Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, and the Adriatic islands. Together, these five papers highlight several common themes across the region: local or indigenous sites were often reoccupied in Late Antiquity, the rural coun...

Dinamiche dell’incastellamento in Adriatico. Secoli X-XIII
Il dibattito sull’incastellamento ha compiuto 50 anni. I castelli, osservati dall’alto, paiono un corpo unico che nacque per modificare l’habitat: una grande rivoluzione attuata tra X e XIII secolo, ma non fu così. Ogni castello è frutto di dinamiche proprie e può non trovarsi in relazione con il suo vicino più prossimo. L’incastellamento non fece muovere tutte le forze in campo all’unisono e fu caratterizzato da un mosaico di motivazioni che impattarono, spesso, su scala micro-territoriale, senza poter essere incasellate rigidamente. Una base comune è evidente: aumentare la protezione. Le differenze stanno nell’oggetto che andava protetto. Un castello a difesa di un valico ...

It extends existing cultural studies literature on music, politics and the state, which has largely been grounded in Western European and North American political systems. It also responds to an emerging fascination with the culture and politics of contemporary south-east Europe, expanding scholarship on the post-Yugoslav conflicts by going on to encompass significant social and political changes into the present day. The outbreak of war in 1991 saw almost every professional musici...
