The Diffusion of Reports in Italy during the Early Modern Age During the Ancient Regime, the reports of events of public interest were often suspended between reality and fiction. The dividing line between the actual event and its representation was really weak and undefined. The authors were used to pursuing different purposes and used different means, in order to meet alternatively the taste of the receivers, the needs of the printers, the requirements of their patrons, the purposes of propaganda of secular and religious powers. For all these reasons, these primary sources are very difficult to be analyzed by historians and experts in literature. This research intends to focus on the so called “relazioni” or “ragguagli” circulating in the Italian States from the Sixteenth century until the early Nineteenth century. They are considered as instruments of interest in the book market and in the market of information. They deal with natural disasters, battles, wars, discoveries of new lands, religious missions, supposed miracles, unexplained healings, murders and executions. Being written by “ordinary” people from different social environments (priests, artisans, lawyers, soldiers, bureaucrats or “professional” writers), these documents are relevant for various areas within the Humanities and the Social Science, because they reveal the richness of a world permeable to the circulation of conflicting beliefs and ideas on the events of public interest, and testify the movement of words, metaphors, themes, images, and cultural practices which shift from the elite to popular culture and viceversa. Taking into account the exchanges between high and low culture, it is possible to find continuities, discontinuities, and overlapping in the perception and representation of reality. Therefore the project aims at moving from texts to society and from society to texts.
