Institutions of Confinement

A study of the development of prisons, hospitals and insane asylums in America and Europe which grew out of disc ussions between its two editors about their work on the history of hospitals, poor relief, deviance, and crime, and a subsequent conference that attempted to assess the impacts of Foucault and Elias. Seventeen contributors from six different countries with backgrounds in history, sociology and criminology utilize various methodological approaches and reflect the various viewpoints in the theoretical debate over Foucault's work.

A Guide to Righteous Living and Other Works

On 23 May 1498 Girolamo Savonarola, one of the most spell-binding figures of the Italian Renaissance, was publicly burned at the stake on the main piazza of Florence on trumped-up charges of heresy and sedition. Thus ended the friar's meteoric rise to power and his unprecedented influence over Florentine society. Though his ashes were unceremoniously dumped into the River Arno the moment the cinders had died away, the fire of his teachings could not be extinguished, nor could Florentines forget the rivetting preacher from Ferrara who, in four short years, had turned their city upside down.

Era stato il diritto canonico a imporre l’obbligo degli alimenti, anche per i figli abbandonati nei brefotrofi, ai padri. Ma come identificarli? E come si comportavano le donne nubili di ceto popolare, le famiglie, la comunità di fronte a una gravidanza imprevista e a un partner in fuga? Il libro ricompone in un ampio quadro la ricerca della paternità; le dichiarazioni di gravidanza imposte alle nubili incinte, e usate, al pari delle querele per seduzione, per individuare i padri; la diffusa tolleranza verso la sessualità prima delle nozze; la solidarietà di parenti, vicini, estranei nel viaggio del neonato verso il brefotrofio. Finché, nell’Ottocento, il divieto della ricerca della paternità e la colpevolizzazione delle donne – seduttrici, non più sedotte – attribuirono alle madri la responsabilità dei “figli del peccato”.
