Next Thursday, November 7, the inauguration of the exhibition “Di intelligenza eletta e di animo buono: Matteotti studente dell’Università di Bologna”, curated by this group’s researchers Mirko Grasso and Patrizia Dogliani, will take place. You can download the catalog in English and Italian.

The exhibition, held on the centenary of the assassination of the Italian politician and featuring documents from the Historical Archive of the University of Bologna, explores the university years of the antifascist leader at the Faculty of Law in Bologna. His relationships with professors, classmates, and life in Bologna deeply influenced the development of his socialist, democratic, and antifascist ideals, as well as his administrative skills, which were key to his parliamentary work.

The exhibition, available until January 2025, has been organized by the Museo Europeo degli Studenti – MEUS, the Sistema Museale di Ateneo of Bologna, the Dipartimento di Storia, Culture, Civiltà; the Archivio Storico and the Biblioteca Universitaria di Bologna.
