English summary: This volume renders homage to Francesca Bocchi, historian not only of medieval cities, but also of the cities preceding and following that epoch. The chronological boundaries given to The far-sighted gaze of capital cities is consequently deliberately broad, and itself speaks to the expansive geographical space.
