I wish to thank Pierluigi Minari, for his help, patience, and suggestions in all these years. For reading and commenting in detail all or some parts of this work over the years, I thank Justin Snedegar, Ralf Bader, and Kit Fine, who also supported my research stays in St Andrews, Oxford, and New York, respectively. Lou Gouble and Malte Willer provided extensive comments to a previous version of this manuscript. In Florence, Andrea Cantini, Giovanna Corsi, Sergio Bernini, Riccardo Bruni, and Marco Maggesi also discussed parts of this work with me and gave me valuable suggestions. Sergei Artemov has been very helpful in New York and during my Ph.D. defense in providing criticism and ideas. Guglielmo Feis has been a constant fellow traveler and a
