About the author
Born in Sciacca, Sicily, in 1877 and later active in Turin, Corrado Barbagallo was an Italian historian known for combining political, social, and economic history. Reliable reference sources identify him as a scholar who first worked on ancient history before broadening his interests across later periods and larger civilizational themes.
Barbagallo taught economic history at the universities of Catania, Naples, and Turin. He is also remembered for founding Nuova Rivista Storica in 1917 and directing it for many years, helping create an important forum for historical debate in Italy.
Among the works most often associated with him are studies on ancient Greece and Rome, modern industry, and a large-scale Storia universale. He died in Turin in 1952.
