Within the framework of international studies on school memories, in this contribution I focused attention on the school memory of Adelfo Grosso, director of the Normal School (Scuola Normale) in Bologna after the Unification of Italy, in honour of whom a stone plaque was erected and a primary school named in the early 20th century, both still present in the city today. Following first-hand research based on previously unexplored archive materials and printed sources, the passage from the individual to the collective, and thereafter the public memory of Adelfo Grosso will be traced, aiming to outline the metamorphosis of the object of memory as well as the representation of schools and teachers within the complex game of school memory, among light and oblivion.
Nell'ambito degli studi internazionali sulle memorie scolastiche, in questo contributo mi sono soffermata sulla memoria scolastica di Adelfo Grosso, direttore della Scuola Normale di Bologna dopo l'Unità d'Italia, in onore del quale all'inizio del Novecento fu eretta una lapide e intitolata una scuola elementare, entrambe ancora oggi presenti in città. Attraverso una ricerca di prima mano, basata su materiali d'archivio e fonti a stampa finora inesplorati, viene tracciato il passaggio dalla memoria individuale a quella collettiva, e quindi pubblica, di Adelfo Grosso, con l'obiettivo di delineare la metamorfosi dell'oggetto della memoria e la rappresentazione di scuole e insegnanti all'interno del complesso gioco della memoria scolastica, tra luce e oblio.

Abstract
Within the framework of international studies on school memories, in this contribution I focused attention on the school memory of Adelfo Grosso, director of the Normal School (Scuola Normale) in Bologna after the Unification of Italy, in honour of whom a stone plaque was erected and a primary school named in the early 20th century, both still present in the city today. Following first-hand research based on previously unexplored archive materials and printed sources, the passage from the individual to the collective, and thereafter the public memory of Adelfo Grosso will be traced, aiming to outline the metamorphosis of the object of memory as well as the representation of schools and teachers within the complex game of school memory, among light and oblivion.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
