On the Heuristic Role of Mathematical Patrimonies: the Case Study of Alessandro Terracini’s Collections
Abstract
In this paper we analyze A. Terracini’s (1889-1968) library heritage (his personal library and miscellany), which is now kept in Turin and in Perugia, with the help of the digital humanities software Palladio. This historiographical perspective allows to focus on the dynamics of circulation of mathematical knowledge and it promotes the highlight of some lesser-known aspects of Terracini’s biographical and professional trajectory.
