Esito di un lungo e tortuoso percorso di ricerca, Storia notturna e il capolavoro che Carlo Ginzburg ha consacrato al tentativo di spiegare la genesi storica dello stereotipo del sabba stregonesco nella forma in cui questo si cristallizzo, tra la fine del XIV e l’inizio del XVI secolo, durante i processi inquisitoriali contro uomini e donne accusati di stregoneria. Cio che rende questa opera straordinaria e il fatto che lo studio del sabba venga affrontato con strumenti di tipo storiografico e, al contempo, con strumenti morfologici, a partire dallo studio di miti e riti provenienti da un vastissimo numero di culture sparse nello spazio e nel tempo. Insieme a un saggio retrospettivo di Ginzburg, il volume raccoglie interventi di studiosi di varie discipline: ebraistica, storia del cristianesimo, storia delle religioni, filosofia. Gli studi qui raccolti testimoniano la persistente fecondita delle domande poste da Storia notturna, anche in campi meno segnati dal vasto dibattito internazionale che, da trent’anni, la riguarda. Completa il volume la bibliografia integrale degli scritti di Carlo Ginzburg.
