RESUMO

Antonello Gerbi (1904-1976), historian of philosophy and political thought, was very close to Benedetto Croce and in contact with Arthur Lovejoy. Following the historiographical method adopted by Croce, his book Il peccato di Adamo ed Eva [The Sin of Adam and Eve] relates the history of the conception of Original Sin as carnal sin from the II to the XIX centuries. Due to the very wide range of sources examined (philosophers, theologians, poets, artists, etc.) and the thoroughness with which he unifies his research around the central theme of the carnal nature of the Fall, the work has interesting affinities with the history of ideas and bears witness to the versatility of Croce's historiographical method, amenable to being integrated with that of Lovejoy.
