This article aims to investigate the limitations and opportunities of the use of English by Italian historians and scholars in the humanities. It emphasizes the advantages of multilingualism in academia, but also points out how multilingualism does not neces- sarily equate with the anglicization of the Italian and international academy. On the contrary, the article concludes by calling for the promotion of the use of other vehicu- lar languages in scholarly communication too, so as to foster more equitable relation- ships between different research traditions.
Keywords: multilingualism, internationalization, English language, Humanities, aca- demic writing.
