“L’Orientale” University: homage to Boris Uspenskij

On the 5th of March, the University of Naples “L'Orientale” dedicated a special session to the world-famous Russian semiologist Boris Andreevic Uspenskij, one of the most important semilogists, recently retired from the University.
The occasion was to launch the book Forma Formans published by Auria, an historic Neapolitan library and publishing house. The book consists of two volumes, seven hundred pages edited by Sergio Bartolissi and Roberta Salvatore.  

During the event, in the impressive setting of Palazzo du Mesnil, several high-profile personalities paid homage to a colleague, which will be missed for a long time. The University Chancellor Lida Viganoni presented the session and focused on the importance of Uspenskij's scientific research and his indescribable biography.
