Marina Inì, a PhD student in History, conducted research at the British School at Rome (BSR) on the cultural and religious diversity of Ancona, a city in the eighteenth century. Ancona, located on the Adriatic Sea, was a trading post for the Papal State and attracted merchants from various backgrounds, including Ottomans, Greeks, and Jews. Inì's research focused on three urban institutions in Ancona - the lazzaretto, the fondaco, and the ghetto - as well as the presence of non-Catholic burial grounds. The BSR provided access to the Vatican's Archivio della Congregazione per la Dottrina della Fede, which contained documents related to non-Catholic burial practices in Italy. Inì's research at the BSR contributed to her current postdoctoral project on Death and Religious Minorities in Early Modern Italy. [Extracted from the article] |
