Further Information

Three centuries ago, Giuseppe Baretti was born in Turin. This essay outlines his personality, voyages and movements, with particular attention to his often challenging relationships with the Italian Enlightenment and his definitely better connections with the British intellectual world. These were cultivated during two long stays filled with books and various activities. After three hundred years, Baretti emerges again as a controversial yet charming and emblematic figure of eighteenth-century culture.
