Abstract
We intend to analyse several aspects which can contribute to build a Quantum Theory for Gravity. In particular we will consider strings in Background Fields; two Dimensional Dilaton Gravity Theories; Topology, Differential Geometry and Quantum Theories; Modern Quantization Techniques; Duality in String and Field Theory.
