The Study Centre was founded in 2023 on the initiative of some professors of the Department of History and Cultures with the aim of studying and analyzing material data in the magical-religious contexts, understanding objects as discursive representations with an intrinsic agent and performative value.
The Centre organizes and proposes both spaces for reflection and theoretical investigation, and applied anthropology projects in collaboration with institutions, professionals, companies and services on the territory.
