The Project
Our project “Atlantic Italies: Economic and Cultural Entanglements (15th-19th Centuries)” is based at the University of Bern and funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (2018-2022). We explore economic entanglements and related cultural phenomena that developed between the Italian peninsula, sub-Saharan Africa and the Americas, focussing on the circulation of goods and knowledge as well as on the brokers involved in these connections.
