Generali publications

Telling the story of a company means following the common thread that reconciles the business project conceived by the founders with today's production reality; it means accomplishing the perfect journey, one that is all the more captivating the longer the time span between the origin and the destination.

The Generali Group has produced many books to chart the path taken along its pathway of growth, enhance the precious documentary heritage of the Historical Archives, present its art collections, and pay tribute to the illustrious people who have worked for the Company and left their intellectual mark. The most recent volumes, published between 2009 and 2018, are mentioned here, some of which have been made available to interested parties in .pdf format.

The Age of the Lion. The long journey of Assicurazioni Generali from 1831 to the third millennium

Recounting a story that began in Trieste when Italy did not yet exist, texts and images invite the readers to cast an eye to the surrounding landscape: the changing environment deriving from major events in European history, which the Company was able to navigate with the security of one who knows the terrain and anticipates its pitfalls, circumventing the obstacles without going off course.

Venice Lab. Rethinking St. Mark’s Square

The book was born on the occasion of the end of the restoration works - by David Chipperfield - promoted by Assicurazioni Generali in the spaces of the Procuratie Vecchie in St. Mark's Square in Venice, which were opened to the public for the first time in 500 years in April 2022.

It’s the story of the renovation and rebirth project carried out over the last few years that has affected not only the Procuratie Vecchie, but the entire Marciana area.  The book brings together ideas and reflections on the use of these historical spaces, contributions by important Italian and foreign authors, dialogues with the protagonists, the architects' plans and an important photographic apparatus to restore all the richness and complexity of Generali's vision for the future of the lagoon city. A perspective of social and cultural innovation on which is grafted the presence of The Human Safety Net foundation, which today has its Home on the third floor of the Procuratie, open to the city and the world.
