“… the function of History has always been to take away from some powerful people the right of telling a certain past in the name of all the other men. The aim, therefore, of historical research is to obtain from the so called “places of power” the ways to ascertain the facts in a free, objective and responsible way…..” professor Giovanni Canfora
