Omaggio a Germano Proverbio

Abstract

Presentation of the collection, in the present volume, of some contributions dedicated to the memory of Germano Proverbio (Palanzano 1924 – Turin 2020), a multifaceted character of teacher, researcher and priest. His work, with its link between classical philology and modern linguistics and between university and school, and its attention to the human dimension of teaching, still can stimulate readers, scholars, and teachers, and to call them to civil commitment. The collection intends to contribute to reviving the debate on the role of Proverbio in the history of education and to encourage teachers and scholars to take up his proposals again, applying and valorising them.
