"Inter graecos latinissimus, inter latinos graecissimus"

Cardinal Bessarion is renowned for having bridged the frontier that existed between the Western world of Latin and the Eastern world of Greek. As an integrative intermediary and humanistic patron of culture, he served as a witness to the epoch's diverse and momentous processes of inclusion and exclusion. The articles attempt to reconstruct the mechanisms of cultural integration and disintegration that marked the Early Modern Era.
