Description
Accounts of the first activities by professors and students in the city of Padua were in 1222. At first, lessons took place in the heart of the medieval city spaces made available by religious bodies or by the teachers themselves. In the mid-sixteenth century, the construction of what is now Palazzo Bo began. Like today, it was the nerve centre of the Roman Patavium. The area incorporated pre-existing structures that offered a monumental site capable of representing the role attributed to the Studium by the Venetian state. The masterpieces of the sixteenth century – from the Anatomical Theatre to the Botanical Garden – reflect the thought of intellectuals, humanists, and scientists that shaped them.

Vallisneri reveals the baselessness of many theories handed down from antiquity with irony and lightness.

This man, a great scientist, is dedicated to making everyone aware of the wonderful world of nature. The book included in-depth information on Vallisneri, his method of investigation, his scientific discoveries, and his precious collections that gave life to the museums of the University of Padua.
