The pandemic has been and still is a challenge for the Humanities as much as for “Hard sciences.” And for a double order of reasons. Humanities have always provided interpretative keys for phenomena such as contagion, epidemics, and, consequently, care and assistance.

Abstract
The pandemic has been and still is a challenge for the Humanities as much as for “Hard sciences.” And for a double order of reasons. Humanities have always provided interpretative keys for phenomena such as contagion, epidemics, and, consequently, care and assistance. Just think of phenomena such as the “plague” in the Middle Ages and in the modern age, which have strongly influenced global history and have been the subject of history, sociology, and literary theory.
