Cento anni di slavistica a Padova
Cento anni di slavistica a Padova
The volume offers a comprehensive reconstruction of the salient moments in the history of Slavic studies at the University of Padua and sheds new light on the figures of the scholars considered, as well as on the role they played within Slavic studies based in Italy. Starting with Giovanni Maver, who first held the Chair of Slavic Philology in Padua, and continuing with Ettore Lo Gatto, Arturo Cronia, Evel Gasparini and Natalino Radovich as his successors, their scientific, organizational and didactic merits are highlighted and their work is put in historical context. The volume is rounded off by an appendix of images which presents unpublished archive documents regarding the history of Paduan Slavic studies, as well as reproductions of the main publications authored by slavists who taught at Padua University at the University of Padova from the 1920s onward.
