The other, set up for the edition of Museocity / Museosegreto in room 2-3, dedicated this year to female creativity – but never open so far – offers a series of documents of women who have distinguished themselves, each in their field of investigation. You will find, for example, typescripts and autograph material of Milanese poet Alda Merini (1931-2009), autograph sheets by Gaetana Agnesi (Milan, 1718-1799) one of the most important mathematicians of all time, first woman author of a book by mathematics and first to obtain a university chair of mathematics at the University of Bologna.
