Sections

Humana.Mente is organized in four sections: Papers, Book Reviews, Commentaries, and Interviews. The Papers section intends to create a wide and stimulating reflection on the topics of the issue. Reviews focus on the latest books (dating back not more than 2 years prior to the publication of the issue) that relate to the issue topics. By contrast, the Commentaries section wants to re-open the debate on more “classical” books that deal with the issue topics, and possibly suggest a new perspective to interpret them. Interviews are open dialogs with notable scholars.
