Carlo Ginzburg will present the Oxford Centre for European History and Isaiah Berlin Annual Lecture
Carlo Ginzburg received a PhD from the University of Pisa in 1961 and has held teaching positions in several universities across Italy and America, including the University of Bologna, and the University of California, Los Angeles. His areas of specialism range from the Italian Renaissance to early modern European history, and he is a pioneer in the field of microhistory – intense investigations of well-defined topics leading to broader generalisations. Professor Ginzburg has published a significant number of papers and books on topics from witchcraft and agrarian cults in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries (1966), to Morelli, Freud, and Sherlock Holmes (1984).
