Un ponte tra il Mediterraneo e il Nord Europa: la Lombardia nel primo millennio (Quaderni di SSMD, 4)

This volume gathers the Proceedings of an International Conference held at the Department of Historical Studies of the University of Milan on 28-29 November 2019. The aim of the meeting was to solicit new research perspectives through the exchange and confrontation between specialists from different backgrounds, overcoming periodizing rigidities and disciplinary boundaries. The contributions focus on the area that today can be defined as Lombardy, seen in its relations with other geographical entities in a long-term perspective (from the Roman imperial age up to the early Middle Ages), and deal with the following themes of political, military, economic, religious and cultural history.
