The workshop day will also explore the migration and translation of these theories among France, Italy, the UK and the USA. The event is kindly supported by the SIS (Society for Italian Studies), the ASMI (Association of the Study of Modern Italy), the SFS (Society for French Studies) and the University of Leicester.
