Abstract

Michelangelo Giusta (1921-2005) was Professor of Greek and Latin at the Liceo Classico di Mondovì for twenty years (1946-1966) and Professor of Classical Philology at the University of Turin for a quarter of a century (1966 to 1991); a few years after his death, his University, together with the Université Paris Sorbonne and with the contribution and support of many institutions such as the Societé Internationale des Amis de Cicéron, the municipality of Mondovì (in two different moments of his life, 1953-1957 and 1900-1994, Giusta was appointed mayor of this town, which lies about 80 km from Turin, the capital of the Piedmont region) and the Accademia delle Scienze of Turin, organized the conference Vestigia notitiai as a tribute to this colleague. But the volume under review does not contain only the eight papers delivered during the conference, which was held in Turin on February 10th, 2011: since more than forty colleagues and pupils of Giusta wished to dedicate a paper to their friend and teacher, the book is a perfect witness of the “partnership of passion” that binds those who dedicate their lives to the study of classics. Since the topics dealt with in the almost fifty papers are many and extremely multifarious, this review cannot be other than a short summary of its main themes; the index (copied at the end of the review) will let the readers to get an idea of the contents of the book.
