This essay focuses on the role of the art press in the advancement of the research on Byzantine art in Italy at the turn of the twentieth century. Byzantine civilization touched Italy deeply: historic monuments and treasuries in churches and museums are lasting evidence of this enduring contact. To Italian scholars involved in debates on the origin of their national art, the role of the “Byzantine element” has often appeared as a very contentious issue. Was Byzantium to be considered as a degenerate form of classical “Latin” culture? Was its art merely identified with the traditional...

However, this essay is a journalistic and ethnographic reflection on the legacy of racialism in Jamaica, where I lived 2004-2008.
