Lettere in viaggio. Intorno al Passaggio per Italia di Federico Zuccari

The volume collects the proceedings of the seminar Lettere in viaggio. Intorno al Passaggio per Italia di Federico Zuccari ("Letters on a Journey. Around Federico Zuccari's Passaggio per Italia"). The event was organized as part of the PRIN 2022 project IDEA | THE DIGITAL ZUCCARI CORPUS. Texts, Contexts, Sources and Lexicon | CUP D53D23014980006 and took place on March 28, 2025, with the aim of exploring the challenges emerging from the artist-theorist's text alongside expert scholars.As is well known, Passaggio per Italia is a collection of letters written by Zuccari to friends and colleagues during his travels and stays in northern Italian cities. The literary models the author looked to, the narrative form adopted, the descriptions of places and events, as well as the complex editorial history and the variations among known copies, were the core subjects of reflection during the seminar and are now compiled in this volume.
