Antichistica e razzismo nel dibattito culturale statunitense. Una intervista ad Alice Borgna

Abstract

In the interview, Alice Borgna addressed the issue, particularly controversial in the U.S. today, of the relationship between classical culture and multicultural societies that claim other modelsof the past. In light of the debate sparked by Padilla Peralta’s statements about racism inherent in the study of the Classics, Borgna reflects on the relationship between minorities and culture, on the celebration of the classical world in a profoundly changed world where a significant portion of the population no longer recognizes itself in that past.
