MeDi is a project that aims to give a new perspective on the dynamics of integration of minorities as a result of forced migration. Thanks to the collaboration with the supervisor Prof. Mary Laven, Professor in Early Modern History and Fellow at Jesus College in Cambridge, expert in social and cultural history of early modern Italy and Europe, I would like to improve my academic career proposing this innovative research which proposes some very topical themes. By comparing the diasporas of the Albanians and the Gypsies between XV and XVIII centuries, that brought them from the Byzantine Empire to the Kingdom of Naples, the research intends to analyse these parallel movements, which led to completely different dynamics of inclusion and exclusion, access to contrasting privileges and concessions, and a permanence in southern Italy that still retains some of the characteristics of that first interaction. These two minorities were chosen because they maintain some common features useful for a comparison that can offer a cross-sectional look at the history of migrations and open new points of reflection. With an interdisciplinary approach that interacts with linguistic, anthropology, history of art and psychology of the migration I will problematise on the traditional representation of these two nations by first analysing the extensive bibliography, then I will document the continuity of these presences and their interactions with the host population through in-depth archive research (Valladolid, Madrid, Naples, Cosenza). Using these documents I will investigate and compare how these minorities kept their ethnic identity, and finally I will return the research making their findings public and accessible using an Open Access Methodology. Beyond the scholarly value, the project will produce and disseminate alternative narrative history on migrations in the Mediterranean that is so necessary in this period, but also in Gender studies that are full part of this research.

MeDi 是一个旨在为强迫移民导致的少数民族融合动态提供新视角的项目。感谢与剑桥早期现代史教授、耶稣学院研究员、早期现代意大利和欧洲社会文化史专家 Mary Laven 教授的合作，我希望通过提出这项创新研究来改善我的学术生涯其中提出了一些非常热门的主题。通过比较十五世纪和十八世纪期间阿尔巴尼亚人和吉普赛人的散居，将他们从拜占庭帝国带到那不勒斯王国，该研究旨在分析这些平行的运动，这些运动导致了完全不同的包容和排斥动态，对比鲜明的特权和让步，以及意大利南部的持久性，仍然保留着第一次互动的一些特征。选择这两个少数群体是因为他们保留了一些有助于比较的共同特征，可以提供对移民历史的横断面观察并开辟新的反思点。通过与语言学、人类学、艺术史和移民心理学相互作用的跨学科方法，我将首先分析大量的参考书目，对这两个国家的传统表征提出问题，然后我将记录这些存在的连续性及其与通过深入的档案研究（巴利亚多利德、马德里、那不勒斯、科森扎）了解当地人口。使用这些文件，我将调查和比较这些少数群体如何保持其种族身份，最后我将返回研究结果，使用开放获取方法公开和访问他们的发现。除了学术价值之外，该项目还将制作和传播关于地中海移民的另类叙事历史，这在这一时期是非常必要的，而且在性别研究中也是如此，这也是本研究的一部分。
