Jake Tippett on Niccolo Machiavelli: The Norwegian Institute in Rome is delighted to host this term's first gathering of the Circolo Gianicolense!
Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-78), printmaker, architect, and antiquarian, has long mesmerized viewers with his panoramas of ancient Rome. But he has also been considered an interpreter of the genuinely modern, DNIR Honorary Fellow, Professor Victor Plahte Tschudi argues in his new book.
On the occasion of his 80th birthday our former Director Professor J. Rasmus Brandt will give an open lecture on Etruscan passage to the underworld. The Institute is delighted to host a reception in his honour immediately after the lecture. Please join us in celebrating an extraordinary man and great scholar!
Modern literary theory, which has been in constant dialogue with broader practices of cultural and political critique in Europe, is recognized as having its starting point in Russian Formalism, an intellectual movement that dates to the 1910s. This roundtable, which involves scholars who have fled Ukraine and Russia in 2022, will explore some of the overlooked historical and geographical extensions of this major epistemic shift. The speakers will uncover intellectual precedents to modern forms of knowledge and critique in Ukrainian and Russian 19th and 20th century scholarship.
