Introduction
Introduction to 'Journey among Dervishes between Past and Present', edited by Thomas Dähnhardt and Giovanni De Zorzi. The book intends to invite readers on a multi-dimensional and multi-faceted journey meeting dervishes in different places and environments of the Muslim world; its peculiarity is to bring together a classical orientalist approach, based on texts and written documents, with the approach typical of Anthropology, Ethnography and Ethnomusicology, based on research in the field and oral sources: the ethnographic study of the present sheds new light on practices, methods and theories exposed in treatises of the Past while, at the same time, practices of the present may be clarified and illuminated by the study of ancient Sufi texts and authors. These different approaches want to draw attention to the multiple dimensions embraced by tasawwuf (Sufism) both in its historical and social context and in its non-temporal aspect, concerning spirituality and the ways the latter is conveyed and transmitted, both in the past and present
improvising in the community of philosophical inquiry: a way to learn to inhabit uncertainty|improvisar na comunidade de investigação filosófica: uma forma de aprender a habitar a incerteza|improvisar en la comunidad de investigación filosófica: una forma de aprender a habitar la incertidumbre
This theoretical contribution proposes an open reflection on uncertainty, present in contemporary social and educational discussions, and on the value that learning to inhabit such “uncertainties” can have for the well-being of individuals and communities. Perceiving different alternatives before making a choice, finding yourself lost when faced with the ambiguity of some information, and feeling disorientated when faced with complexity, are all characteristics of this elusive “uncertainty” (Barreneche & Santi, 2022). Uncertainty can be perceived negatively if it provokes fear, worry, anxiety, perception of vulnerability (Hillen et al., 2017) or in a constructive way if it appears as a vital engine for research (Tauritz, 2019). Community of philosophical inquiry (CPI) – as conceptualized and promoted in the Philosophy for Children (P4C) curriculum - becomes a “safe creativity environment” (Weinstein, 2016), in which to learn to inhabit uncertainty. A CPI that improvises (Zorzi & Santi, 2023), develops and makes conscious dispositions towards uncertainty, learning to see alternatives as a resource, ambiguities as creative horizons of meaning, and complexity as a collective performance to be experienced. Six improvisational dimensions – (1) respecting diversities, (2) trusting possibilities, (3) building a sense of community, (4) opening attitude towards changes, (5) explorative attitude, (6) creative passion, emerged from other previous researches (Zorzi, Camedda, Santi, 2019), are proposed to orient facilitators’ and CoI's training, dialoguing with the “nine recurring moments of disequilibrium” suggested by Karin Murris (2008)

Storia antica e storia bizantina nei manoscritti della biblioteca di Bessarione
The ideal completeness of Bessarion’s Greek library is mentioned in the Cardinal’s donation of his library to Venice in 1468. This ideal is evaluated in relation to the domain of history through a survey of the manuscripts from Bessarion’s collection now in the Marciana Library. These preserve Greek works spanning the years from Antiquity to the Late Byzantine period, including not only classicizing histories but also Church histories, world chronicles and other kinds of historiographical writings. A close look at the codicological and palaeographical data of these manuscripts and an examination of some of Bessarion’s marginal notes provide a deeper understanding of Bessarion’s relationship with Ancient and Byzantine history

"Zoom in on Masters: IISMC Online Conversations" 1 Kudsi Erguner and the Bîrûn Project
Zoom in on Masters is a new project created by the Intercultural Institute of Comparative Musical Studies (IISMC) and focused on “masters” of important musical and dance traditions, who had been due to perform on the island of San Giorgio. In a virtual space, they converse on music topics of common interest and describe their own activities as well as some IISMC projects which, because of the international coronavirus health emergency, have inevitably been suspended but will resume as soon as possible.
In the first conversation, online at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERA5MIhueWc, Kudsi Erguner, artistic director of the long-standing Bîrûn project devoted to Ottoman classical music, talks to Giovanni De Zorzi (Ca’ Foscari University of Venice) and some musicians who participated in previous Bîrûn workshops as scholarship holders. They will reflect on the overall value of the project and its benefits for training and research. They will also introduce the theme of the next seminar: the instrumental compositions of Prince Dimitri Cantemir (1673-1723).
