Clavius@School: il progetto Clavius on the Web entra nelle scuole

Abstract

Clavius on the web is a Digital Humanities project dedicated to the manuscripts of Christophorus Clavius – an important jesuit mathematician and one of most influential scholars of his time – preserved by the Historical Archive of the Pontifical Gregorian University. This paper describes Clavius@School, an initiative within the same project in which students from three high schools partecipate. Clavius@School aims not only to spread knowledge about Clavius’ works, but also to alert to a conscientious and aware use of digital technology, according to the perspective proposed by the French philosopher Bernard Stiegler.
