The day has come, in the symbolic date for the history of Colombia that is the 9th of April, I'll be defending my PhD Thesis in Historical Studies in the University of Florence. Thanks to everyone that has been there to make this possible. Big days ahead!

El 9 de febrero es el día de la lengua griega. Por ello traigo un ejemplo de paleografía griega del siglo XVII de un proceso judicial en el Archivo estatal de Venecia. Recordando que por siglos, la lengua griega fue difundida desde la Serenissima. @adribrulotesgr.bsky.social

2024 would be the year in which I finished my #PhD dissertation and it got accepted without corrections by the three reviewers.
(It happened some weeks agout I guess it's a big deal and deserves to be shared).

December 9, 1824, Battle of #Ayacucho.
200 years since the last great battle of the wars of independence and the effective end of Spanish rule in South America.

«Ayacucho, like Waterloo, which decided the destiny of Europe, has determined the fate of the American nations.»
Simón Bolívar, 1825

Actually, checking this again, I realized that the ones I posted weren't the greatest from that museum.

I had a lecture today in what for me is the most horrendous place in Florence: The Anthropological Museum, with collections from the time of the Medici.
Although today I finally saw some progress to detach a bit from its rancid colonial narrative, maintained since the beginning of the 20th century.
