- Descrizione:
The major political upheavals in the Atlantic world between the mid-1770s and the mid-1820s triggered political migrations of an unprecedented scale.
The research project Atlantic Exiles (2020-2025) will undertake the first systematic exploration of this momentous period as an age of refugee movements, that is, as a period in which political migrants and their movements became a defining feature. Rather than simply complementing existing scholarship, the project puts forth a new reading of the age of revolutions and its consequences, by showing that supposedly marginalized figures were not on the sidelines, but at the very center of major transformations.
