Viva Sacco Dalla ceramica alla storia economica. Il caso di Palermo islamica
Negli ultimi anni lo studio della Sicilia islamica, per lungo tempo affidato esclusivamente all’analisi delle fonti scritte, ha beneficiato di numerosi nuovi risultati archeologici, i quali hanno permesso di accedere a nuovi tipi di informazioni utili a gettare luce su alcuni aspetti della storia sociale ed economica dell’isola. Allo stesso tempo si è reso necessario distinguere la cultura materiale tipica dell’età islamica da quella della successiva epoca normanna, a lungo considerate un tutt’uno. Questo nuovo approccio allo studio della Sicilia islamica ha fatto emergere in maniera più evidente il ruolo chiave che Palermo ebbe nelle dinamiche politiche, economiche e sociali del Mediterraneo centrale. Dottore in archeologia e storia dell’arte islamica presso l’Université Paris-Sorbonne e l’Università di Messina, ancienne membre de l’École française de Rome, Viva Sacco è una archeologa e ceramologa specialista nello studio delle produzioni ceramiche circolanti in Sicilia e Ifrīqiya tra IX e XII secolo.

Sébastien Bully, Morana Čaušević-Bully, Stéphane Gioanni (dir.) St Peter of Osor (Island of Cres) and Benedictine monasticism in the Adriatic area
This book gathers the proceedings of the international round-table Saint-Pierre d'Osor et le monachisme bénédictin dans l'espace adriatique held in 2018 at Osor on the island of Cres (Croatia), which marked the culmination of twelve archaeological campaigns (2006-2017). The aim of this meeting was to present and contextualise, on a broad geographical and chronological scale, our knowledge of the monastery of St Peter and Benedictine monasticism in the Adriatic, whose importance in the reform of the Church in the 11th century was magnified by the Camaldolese Annals in the 18th century. This multi-disciplinary study of St Peter of Osor and its representations allows us to compare the available sources (archaeological, literary and archival) and to renew our understanding of the island monastery, its presumed foundation by Gaudentius, bishop of Osor and then monk at the Porto Novo monastery in Ancona, and its role in the implementation of the reform. It also sheds new light on Benedictine expansion, the spread of monastic culture, artistic transfers, the movement of people and networks of sociability between the shores of the Adriatic. Finally, it examines the dialogue between archaeology and history.
