Eredità accademiche: i docenti e le memorie dell’Ex Istituto di Geografia nel ventennio 1964-1984

Abstract

This paper  outlines the former Institute of Geography’s didactic offer and both tenure and tenure track faculty members’ professional profiles from the 1960s to the 1980s. The research develops around two main phases: the first one analyses the academic context of those times, mainly focusing on the space held by full professors and their course programs; the subsequent through semi-structured interviews delves into the experience of nine professors who built their academic background at the Institute under the guidance of professors Riccardi, Migliorini and Baldacci. Based on their memories, an attempt to understand their relations with the geo-cartographic assets now preserved at the Museum of Geography of La Sapienza will be made, discussing the main results emerged within a broader project of knowledge organization and valorization of the educational past.
