Istituto Maffei, officially called Liceo Ginnasio di Stato 'Scipione Maffei', is the oldest high school in Italy. It is situated in the center of Verona in northern Italy. It is a grammar school, with students who focus on the classics and can choose different paths: communication, or languages. Students who choose the first path study Latin, Ancient Greek, Mathematics, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Philosophy, History, Geography, Italian and Italian literature, English and English literature, I.T, Law and Economy. Students who, on the other hand choose the second path study the same subjects (apart from Ancient Greek) plus some other modern languages like French, Spanish or German. It was officially founded in 1808 under the name "Liceo con Convitto", although it was actually already in operation in 1805. Then in 1867 it was renamed "Regio Liceo Scipione Maffei", after an Italian writer and art critic, author of many articles and plays. ==War period== One of the most important periods in its history is the First World War. At that time both teachers and students wanted Italy to take part in that war, but when the conflict started, the school underwent a difficult and terrible time caused by economic problems for teachers and the fear of fighting for lots of students. Eighty students and one teacher, named Enrico Sicher, died during Austrian attacks and this is why they are now commemorated with a plaque in the school. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Istituto Maffei」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
