Questo volume rende omaggio a Francesca Bocchi, storica delle città medievali, ma con aperture alle età precedenti e successive. Il taglio cronologico dato a Lo sguardo lungimirante delle capitali è quindi ampio, come lo spazio geografico che abbraccia. Non si tratta in senso stretto delle capitali di stati nazionali o regionali, ma anche di città a capo di circoscrizioni territoriali più piccole, su cui esse hanno svolto un ruolo dominante.This volume renders homage to Francesca Bocchi, historian not only of medieval cities, but also of the cities preceding and following that epoch. The chronological boundaries given to The far-sighted gaze of capital cities is consequently deliberately broad, and itself speaks to the expansive geographical space. The concept of a capital city is not narrowly limited to national, regional, or state capitals, but includes cities at the head of smaller territorial environs upon which they have developed a dominating role.
