Strumenti di Public History nella didattica (ludica) della storia all'Università di Genova
The essay describes the educational activities of the Laboratorio di Public history and the Centro di Ricerca sul Gioco at the University of Genoa, focusing on the theme of the gamification of history. It discusses the validity of an educational approach based on the use of commercial historical board games and the development of a role-playing game set in the 17th century. The analog gaming market is currently experiencing significant growth, and within it, there is a growing interest from a player audience attracted to historical games. This ludic production possesses all the characteristics to be considered a full-fledged tool in the field of public history. Furthermore, it represents an interesting area of research on recent cultural trends and modes closely related to historical science
La nuova spiritualità dell'età moderna, 3 ed. riv. e ampl.
The new forms adopted by religious speculation and practices of the sacred at the threshold of the modern age, in a Europe crossed by strenuous and conflicting attempts to arrange the balance of power that were forming on the international scene, characterized large parts of European culture and gave rise to deep and irreversible changes that, from a simply philosophical and theological plane, in a few decades would affect more areas of political, economic and social development.

Underlying these changes there was a distinctive cultural and political composition of elements, whose fusion, according to different times and different characters depending on the different regions in Europe, made it possible these conditions of change. The book traces, through the analysis of texts and sources of the period, the highlights of this process and the immediate outcomes. Some of the main characters of Christian humanism (Alberti, Valla, Pico, Savonarola, Erasmus, More, Castellione) founded the new feel of a European culture which began to appear on the reproof to the monolithic Church and the topics of religious tolerance. Evangelism reformed, with Luther, Zwingli, Calvin, Bullinger offers, for its part, new models and new ways to the needs of the sacred. The results of the Reformation, both socially (Peasants' War) and politically as well as in the relations between religion and power finally contributed to the reorganization featuring the modern Europe until today
