Epistolario De Gasperi: National Edition of De Gasperi’s Letters in Digital Format

We present an ongoing project aimed at creating the National Edition of Alcide De Gasperi’s letters in digital format. Our main goal is to systematically collect and transcribe a large number of private and public letters, present in different archives, written or received by De Gasperi throughout his life, and to shed light into all the critical steps of his biography and of the major events of the time. Thirty-eight transcribers have already acquired and annotated 1,549 letters, using an ad-hoc tool specifically developed for the project. All the transcribed material is available through a constantly updated free access web platform.
