abstract
This volume collects essays devoted to the Caucasian and Central Asian space, largely derived from the papers presented in December and April 2019 at the annual conference by the Associazione per lo Studio in Italia dell'Asia centrale e del Caucaso and at the XIII Giornata di Studi Armeni e Caucasici organized by the Department of Asian and Mediterranean African Studies at Ca' Foscari. The volume reflects the different lines of research followed by scholars dealing with the area. It includes studies from different disciplinary backgrounds: from contributions of a historical and philological nature to contemporary linguistic, literary and political studies.
