This historical studies’ journal, founded in 1959 by Gastone Manacorda, has been characterized for over 50 years by its continuity in its aims: being a place of study and high-level research; stabilizing its appearance as a review of general history, from Antiquity to the Present. Thanks to the choices of its Scientific Advisory Board, the journal has published several original essays, debates and sources’ reviews, recalling the huge work done by Italian and foreign historiography, within different research fields, in the last decades.
