The «Making History. Archive Meetings» is ready to start again this year. The exhibition is the result of a third mission agreement between the DEMM Department of the University of Sannio and the State Archive, organised by Cristina Ciancio, Professor of History of Medieval and Modern Law at the Magistral School of Law of UNISANNIO, and by Dr Carmine Venezia, Director of the State Archives of Benevento.
From December to March, four books will be presented that will allow us to confront scandals, ancestral fears, female stereotypes and dialogue between different scientific methodologies. Thanks to the collaboration with the Biblioteca Guida Benevento, buying the books presented at each event will be possible. 

Fourth cycle date:

Date: Thursday, March 20, 2025
Time: 4:00 pm
Location: Conference room of the State Archives in via G. De Vita n.3, Benevento

Lorenzo Leporiere, researcher of the University of Bari "Aldo Moro", presents his "Perverse sexuality. Brief history of a scandalous magazine" published by Editrice Bibliografica, which retraces bizarre cases and controversial theories reported in the journal "Archivio delle psicopatie sessuali", a magazine founded at the end of the nineteenth century by criminal anthropologist Pasquale Penta and that was the protagonist of a short editorial parable of great scientific interest but no less uncomfortable and destabilizing for society not only of the time.
