Russell Kirk’s “Rights and Duties” translated into Italian by Dr. Agostino Carrino
The Kirk Center is very pleased to announce that Russell Kirk’s book Rights and Duties has been translated into Italian by the distinguished legal scholar Agostino Carrino, professor of Public Law at the University of Naples and author of several books on constitutional law in Europe.
Dr. Carrino was a visiting research fellow at the Kirk Center last year and wrote an introduction to the Italian edition, titled Diritti e Doveri and published by Editoriale Scientifica di Napoli. Annette Kirk and the Kirk Center staff are very grateful to Dr. Carrino for his dedication in helping to bring more of Kirk’s writings to the Italian people.
