AbstractThe formation and evolution of massive galaxies represent one of the most intriguing open problems in astrophysics. Their underlying stellar populations encode valuable information about their past history. Detailed spectroscopic observations allow us to constrain the star formation histories, revealing a complicated mixture of a strong, early formation process, followed by passive evolution in the cores, along with an extended assembly of the outer regions via minor mergers. In this contributed talk, some recent results are presented from the analysis of samples of massive galaxies both at z ~ 0 and moderate redshift.
