“Alterities, Crossings, Transfers – ACT”: the acronym ACT designates a series of publications of monographic thematic issues mainly connected with the research on cultural contacts, dicursive migrations and disciplinary as well as epistemological reconfigurations in the area of comparatist studies. Topics range from philosophy, anthropology, post-colonial studies, and translation studies to a strong emphasis on interart studies, following a rigorously trans-disciplinary perspective. It also manifests still another dimension of this project: the fact that each volume constitutes the “transcription” of a “performance”, of a set of texts orally communicated to, and actively discussed by, an audience.
