abstract
The successful development of Chinese Studies at Ca’ Foscari was mainly due to the contribution of two eminent sinologists, Professor Lionello Lanciotti (1925-2015) and Professor Mario Sabattini (1944-2017). This paper offers a brief overview of their intellectual and academic experience in Venice and of their legacy.
