abstract
This new volume in the series "Eurasiatica. Quaderni di studi su Balcani, Anatolia, Iran, Caucasus and Central Asia" by Edizioni Ca' Foscari of Venice collects several articles devoted to Armenia, Caucasus and Central Asia. The volume reflects some of the main lines of research pursued in recent years by Italian and international scholars. It includes articles of a philological, historical, economic and political nature that deal with numerous relevant topics for the study of these regions, characterised as much by a rich cultural tradition as by a growing relevance in the contemporary political scenario.
