	Abbey and Diocese of Bobbio
		The origin of the See of Bobbio, indeed of the town itself, is due to the establishment of a monastery here by the Irish saint, Columban, in 614.
		The fame of Bobbio reached the shores of Ireland, and the memory of Columban was dear to the hearts of his countrymen.
		Gerard of Aurillac, for example, who was afterwards Pope Sylvester II, became Abbot of Bobbio in 982; and with the aid of the numerous ancient treatises which he found there he composed his celebrated work on geometry.

	Social Anarchism/Left & Right
		For Bobbio, the essence of "the left" is a commitment to treating all people as equals in a social and political sense, while recognizing that this commitment to equality does not mean that everyone is the same; that of "the right," an acceptance of a natural hierarchy among human beings which justifies unequal treatment.
		Bobbio anticipates and responds to criticisms of his criterion of equality as the distinguishing characteristics of the left primarily by arguing that most of the other criteria offered really can be subsumed under the heading of equality.
		Bobbio may be right when he says the extremes of the political spectrum meet in their rejection of democracy, but his schema is wrong to include any movement that rejects democratic practice on the left of the spectrum.

	Bobbio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bobbio is the administrative center of the Comunità Montana Appennino Piacentino.
		Bobbio Abbey (see main article) became a center of learning during the Middle Ages, and was renowned for its library, but its decline in the 15th century led to the dispersal of the library.
		On September 30, 1986, the Diocese was suppressed and merged with Archdiocese of Genoa.

	Left and Right: The Significance of a Political Distinction, by Norbert Bobbio - reviewed by Louis Andrews
		Bobbio, for example, sees the moral value of equality as the essential component of all left political theories and types of opposition to such equality as inherent in all right political theories.
		Bobbio argues that those who claim left/right distinctions no longer hold are normally members of groups whose political fortunes have grown weak or non-existent and are seeking a means of regaining some power.
		Bobbio argues that few (he calls them egalitarianists) really believe in true equality and "[t]o everyone the same amount." In fact, "this would not only be a utopian vision, to which, admittedly, the left is more inclined than the right, or perhaps to which only the left is inclined.

		Bobbio's life and work were conditioned by the vicissitudes of his country's democracy in the 20th century.
		Bobbio regarded Kelsen as caught uncomfortably between a purely formal account of law and a substantive position grounded in what he called the "basic norm" underlying all law.
		Bobbio was also closely associated with the peace movement, another concern which bears a direct relation to his academic work.

	New Labour
		Bobbio refers to politics in Italy, but this sentiment is particularly true of the political conflict in Britain, where many observers are of the opinion that there is little reason for acrimony between the two parties when the opposing sides are arguing for the same things.
		Bobbio, for example, sees the moral value of equality as the essential component of all leftist political theories, and, given the nature of the dyad, it follows that types of opposition to such equality are inherent characteristics of rightist political theories.
		Bobbio, in one of his few remarks on the pragmatic application of egalitarianism, refers to the principal theme of the traditional parties and movements of the left: the removal of private property.

	Political Theory: Essays (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-03)
		Bobbio spent most of his life in the same city, home, and street--via Sacchi, 66—a telling detail if one recalls that in the years of his youth the Italian government subsidized the exodus to America of millions of its subjects.
		Bobbio belonged to the latter, and this was used by his critics to prove he failed both as a man (moral responsibility) and as an intellectual (political responsibility).
		Bobbio’s letter to the Duce should be read as an accusation of a political system that forces its subjects to write that kind of letter, and beg their ruler like slaves beg their master to preserve what belongs to them legitimately (Bobbio had already acquired his academic position in a regular competition).

	Norberto Bobbio, 1909-2004 \| Workers' Liberty
		Bobbio was a liberal socialist, part of an Italian tradition of radical liberalism represented most notably by the great Piero Gobetti, murdered by Mussolini's fascists in 1926, but also Carlo Roselli, Guido Calogero and Aldo Capitini.
		Bobbio was one of the first on the socialist left to be a green (though he seemed to miss completely those ecological aspects of Marx's thought that have been highlighted more recently by writers like John Bellamy Foster and Jonathan Hughes).
		We might weight the emphasis Bobbio placed upon "the most salutary fruits of the European intellectual tradition, the value of enquiry, the ferment of doubt, a willingness to dialogue, a spirit of criticism, moderation of judgement, philological scruple, a sense of the complexity of things".

		Bobbio's shift from a pure theory of law to a concern with its political embodiment was marked by his moving to a chair in the newly created faculty of political science in Turin in 1972, where he remained until the then statutory retirement age of 75 in 1984.
		Bobbio's linking of the rule of law and rights to the distribution of power produced by liberal democracy informs his contributions to the political debates of the period.
		Bobbio's wife of 58 years, Valeria, died suddenly in 2001, though three sons survive him.

	Norberto Bobbio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Bobbio was a liberal socialist in the tradition of Piero Gobetti, Carlo Rosselli, Guido Calogero, and Aldo Capitini.
		Bobbio was born into what his Guardian obituary described as "...a relatively wealthy, middle-class Turin family" whose sympathies Bobbio would later characterize as "philo-fascist', regarding fascism as a necessary evil against the supposedly greater danger of Bolshevism".
		Bobbio studied Philosophy of Law with Gioele Solari; he later taught this curriculum in Camerino, Siena, Padua, and ultimately back in Turin as Solari's successor in 1948; from 1972 to 1984, he had a chair in the newly created faculty of political science in Turin.

	Bobbio, N.; Cochrane, L.G., trans.: Ideological Profile of Twentieth-Century Italy.
		In this book, Bobbio, who himself played an outstanding role in the development of Italian civic culture, follows each of the major ideologies, explaining how they developed, describing the key actors, and considering the legacies they left to political culture.
		Bobbio's defense of democracy and critique of capitalism are among the themes that will particularly interest American readers of this updated edition, the first to appear in English.
		Beginning in the late nineteenth century with positivism and Marxism, Bobbio next presents the ideological currents that developed before the outbreak of the First World War: Catholic, socialist, irrational and anti-democratic thought, the reaction against positivism, and the thinking of Benedetto Croce.

	Jonas of Bobbio
		In 618 he entered the monastery of Bobbio in the province of Pavia where he was soon appointed to a position of confidence, probably that of secretary to the abbots Attala (d.
		The work to which Jonas chiefly owes his literary fame comprises, besides the "Life of St. Columbanus," the lives of the abbots Attala and Bertulf of Bobbio, Eustace of Luxeuil, and the Abbess Burgundofara (or Fara) of Evoriac (now Faremoutiers).
		Jonas arrived at Bobbio but three years after Columbanus's death, and based his invaluable account of the great Irish saint on the testimony of persons who had known him intimately.

		Born in 1909, Bobbio has lived through the major events of the past century, and his experiences of Fascism, Communism and the Cold War lend his reflections a melancholy that distinguishes them from earlier eulogies on old age and death.
		Referring to the traditional idea of old age as the 'age of wisdom', Bobbio argues that our ever-accelerating technological progress has dramatically shifted the power of knowledge from old to young.

	H-Net Review: Alison Frazier on The Bobbio Missal: Liturgy and Religious Culture in Merovingian Gaul
		Stopping at Bobbio briefly in 1686, the Benedictine monk examined a book remarkable for its humility, and perhaps on that account not recorded in the 1461 inventory.[3] Its 300 parchment folios were of unusually small and narrow format, barely 3.5 x 7 inches.
		Despite small and large disagreements, the contributors are eager to reclaim the manuscript as positive evidence of a period that has suffered from scholarly neglect, not to say disdain.
		As I have a special interest in Eugenia, named thrice in litanies in the Bobbio Missal, I note that the translation of Mabillon's introduction cannot be right in section IX (p.
