 📌 One of the most disturbing aspects of the ReceptioGate affair was the misuse of internal academic resources to disseminate defamatory material. In early 2023, emails containing false and harmful statements about Prof. Carla Rossi were sent out from the mailing list of the Società Internazionale di Storia della Miniatura . These emails, sent to dozens of members and colleagues, used the official database of the Society’s members —without consent, and reportedly without the knowledge of the Society’s president. The content included insinuations based on blog posts, unverified accusations, and misleading claims about institutional affiliations. This raises serious concerns not only about academic integrity , but also about data protection and  violations of the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) . 📖 These events are documented and analysed in depth in the book The ReceptioGate Affair by Jordi Puig: 👉 Google Books – Preview 🔖 #ReceptioGate #CarlaRossi...

 As part of the broader attempt to discredit Prof. Carla Rossi and her work on manuscript reconstruction, three publications were targeted with plagiarism-related accusations: 📘 The Book of Hours of Louis de Roucy – accused of copying a blog by Peter Kidd, despite being based on independent research and verifiable manuscript sources. 📙 Il Bronzino poeta – labelled as “self-plagiarism” for reusing content the author herself had developed and published. 📗 Sul confine italo-svizzero 1943–45 – challenged based on software similarity scores, with no contextual analysis or critical methodology. These accusations have been officially refuted by a legal expert report , grounded in international copyright law and academic standards. The report shows that the claims lack merit and rely on a superficial or distorted understanding of intellectual property, research reuse, and scholarly authorship. 📖 A detailed presentation of the legal findings appears in the book The Recep...

 📌 Beyond digital defamation, the ReceptioGate campaign reached levels of intimidation that are no longer academic in nature. Prof. Carla Rossi was targeted with anonymous death threats and a fabricated obituary , published online as if she had died. The threats were serious enough to be documented in an official PDF file, now publicly archived. The fake obituary, published on the Swiss memorial website deinadieu.ch, was removed only after Rossi's legal team intervened. These acts go far beyond scholarly disagreement—they constitute a deliberate attempt to silence a researcher by spreading fear and simulating her death. 📖 Full documentation (PDF): 👉 Death threats and fake obituary – Official file 🕯️ Archived obituary (Wayback Machine): 👉 Fake obituary on deinadieu.ch (archived) 🔖 #ReceptioGate #CarlaRossi #PeterKidd #manuscriptsprovenance #biblioclasm #culturalheritage #digitalviolence
