Abstract
[Autom. eng. transl.] The presentation of a collection of one hundred and thirty folders with autograph material (usually letters), linked to personalities of scientists, Italians and foreigners, from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, makes it possible to outline the graphic attitudes of individuals and to reconstruct, against the light, the their cultural and relational context, thus enhancing the collection created by the bibliophile engineer Carlo Viganò during his existence and then donated, with the entire library of the History of Science, to the library of the Catholic University (Brescia branch) at the beginning of the Seventies of the last century, as a tribute to the founder, Father Agostino Gemelli.
