Welcome to Papireto
Online Scholarly Journal
Papireto is an annual interdisciplinary online scientific journal, recognized and included in the ANVUR scientific journal (area 10 and 11) and Web of Science indexes (Emerging Sources Citation Index), founded by Luigi Agus and Giancarlo Germanà Bozza, which aims to be a meeting place and a comparison between different methodological and disciplinary approaches, focusing on the visual arts from antiquity to the contemporary. The mission is to welcome contributions, rigorously selected through double-blind peer review, from art history, anthropology, archaeology and aesthetics, through which different comparative readings of artistic phenomena of the past and present can be provided, making them accessible to the scientific community through an open access journal.
Papireto aims to contribute to scholarly study and to expand upon research findings in the fields of visual arts, aesthetics, art history, art communications and education, archaeology and anthropology, whether through the contribution of established experts or by welcoming the contributions of young and promising scholars whose research illuminates specific themes within the same disciplinary sectors. Papireto is included in the list of ANVUR (National Agency for University and Research Evaluation) scholarly journals in area 10 (Ancient, philological-literary and historical-artistic sciences) and in area 11 (Historical, philosophical, pedagogical and psychological sciences), and, internationally, in Web of Science‘s Emerging Sources Citation Index.
The journal is flanked by the book series I quaderni del Papireto, published by the Istituto Poligrafico Europeo. The first volume of the series, which aims to collect monographic studies on specific topics, is already available in bookshops.
