MUNDI. National Museum of Italian – Set up of the first two rooms – Santa Maria Novella complex
By
On the 7th of July the exhibition that anticipates the opening of MUNDI, the first national museum dedicated to Italian language, scheduled for 2023, was inaugurated in the complex of Santa Maria Novella in Florence.
Set up in two rooms, the exhibition prefigures the main themes of the museum, offering a journey into Italian linguistic history through precious documents from various museums, archives and libraries and through multimedia stations that allow to listen to texts interpreted by important Italians actors. The artistic and musical installation “Mundi”, produced by Tempo Reale, is also displayed.
The path thus winds through the history of Italian, bringing on display important objects such as a Pompeian graffiti, the manuscript brought to Venice by the Academici della Crusca for the printing of the first edition of the their Vocabulary (1612) and the famous Placito di Capua (960), the first official testimony of the Italian vernacular.
We are proud of the set up realized by our team, which creates a real thematic map to get lost along different directions and to marvel at the sometimes unpredictable crossroads that link the language to the political and social history of Italy and to our literature, art, music and science, up to the customs of women and men who lived in our country.
