Later on, Mantegazza was so deeply fascinated by Riccardo Stradi’s research on bird feather’s pigments to sponsor a magnificent University annual book just dedicated to this theme. At the same time he became very much interested and openly supported the establishment of a new ornithological station at Albonico, a supporting institution that readily produced several degree theses in biological and /or natural sciences and, in addition, several research papers on special ecological themes regarding . the life history of song birds. The success of the above cited station also suggested to try to save the old Milan zoo by establishing a zoo research station on the model of the corresponding institutions of the Milan aquarium and natural history museum. The project was discussed in comparison with the Jersey Wildlife Preservation Trust, and, as such, was strongly supported by Mantegazza, but due to a political change of the Miano city hall administration, it was suddenly rejected while the whole work done up to that point was completely lost. The unfortunate story of the Milan zoo was shortly followed by a much luckier one, regarding the study of the parrot language. With the moral and material help of Mantegazza, a number of African parrots were even hosted in an especially built glass structure within the domain of the Department of Pharmacology. In addition, they were also studied on the field in a series of short expeditions to Tanzania and Uganda. The results of these activities were summarized in a numbers of papers and books. A special memory is also worth about the world list of the Italian bird names, a project that was started almost as a semantic joke and was subsequently so much developed to suggest to ask to our Rector (and readily obtain) a University contribution for its publication. The resulting bird name list was even worth a Crusca Academy praise and was extensively adopted since its publication in the popular ornithological literature in the Italian language. The first paper print, delivered in 1993, was followed by a second paper print in the year 2000 and, more recently, by an electronic version enriched by introductory texts to orders and families as well as by several pictures by a number of photographers. In summary, Paolo Mantegazza was deeply interested in bird biology and encouraged/sponsored a number of researches and cultural events on this topic within the University of Milano.","PeriodicalId":119535,"journal":{"name":"Istituto Lombardo - Accademia di Scienze e Lettere - Incontri di Studio","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116531441","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To fulfil the need, a new university born in the context of the decongestioning program for Mega-Athenaei and the development plans of the Ministry, seemed to be the best answer.

Sironi","doi":"10.4081/INCONTRI.2018.365","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4081/INCONTRI.2018.365","url":null,"abstract":"Paolo Mantegazza has been Rector of the University of Milan for four consecutive mandates, from 1984 to 2001, after having been for 10 years Dean of the Medicine and Surgery Faculty (from 1974 to 1984). His rectorship period has been a time of great change in the society but also in university, as a result of the Universityre form law, Decree 382, passed in 1980. In 1989 the law no. 168 granted to the universities the statutory and regulatory autonomy as provided for in the art. 33 of the Constitution. In those days there has been a great increase in the number of students too, particularly in the University of Milan. While in the academic year 1983-1984, at the beginning of Paolo Mantegazza’s rectorship, the registered students were 63.450, in the following years the student number has increased to almost 100.000, thus entailing an intensive work to make suitable the teaching performance and the overall activity for such a huge number of students. Paolo Mantegazza has directed the University trying to carry out this ever-growing task, acting on different fronts. Considering among these the total regulatory framework of the Athenaeum. Actually he has promoted the introduction of a new statute (1996) and the approval of the main rules, implementing the University autonomy. The great growth of the Athenaeum caused different problems: the increasing of the teaching staff to cope with the huge numberof students, but new buildings too. In this last regard he did a lot in different areas in the interest of the great part of the Athenaeum faculties. Nevertheless the dimensions reached by the University of Milan required a more far-reaching plan to carry out the decongestion of the Athenaeum. He worked towards the doubling of some faculties and the creation of new degrees and new faculties. However it was very soon clear that the most rational solution consisted in the institution of a second Athenaeum in Milan, already assumed when the three-year plan 1991-1993 had been compiled. Thus in 1998 the University of Milan Bicocca was born. In the same year, with the contribution of Paolo Mantegazza and the University of Milan, together with the Pavia University, was instituted the Università dell’Insubria, with branches in Como and Varese. In 1996 was instituted the Vita e salute San Raffaele University too, with a great contribution of the University of Milan during the rectorship of Paolo Mantegazza, transferring there several teachers of the Medicine and surgery Faculty without forgetting the role of Mantegazza as President of Medicine in supporting a University Center in Brescia and the following establishment in 1982 of an independent university. The commitment of Mantegazza for the development of the scientific research in the University has been wide-ranging. At the end of his rectorship the University of Milan was the first Italian university in different international rankings concerning the scientific production. Thanks to these results, at the end ","PeriodicalId":119535,"journal":{"name":"Istituto Lombardo - Accademia di Scienze e Lettere - Incontri di Studio","volume":"29 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114193705","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Guzzetti","doi":"10.4081/INCONTRI.2018.364","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.4081/INCONTRI.2018.364","url":null,"abstract":"Paolo Mantegazza started to cooperate with our Foundation in 2006 as a member of the Charity Central Commission, the board competent to the definition of the intervention priorities of the Cariplo Foundation. That occasion, however, was not the first one in which I got to know the professional and human qualities of Paolo Mantegazza. His competence and diligence in favour of the research were in fact well known to me from the early meetings with him, then Rector of the University of Milan. As a member of the Charity Commission, he was appointed as Coordinator of the Scientific Research Subcommittee, to which Paolo Mantegazza put an incomparable effort until 2013. During the seven years of cooperation I firmly confirm the commitment and competence of Paolo Mantegazza, and I personally bear witness to the energy and creative impetus he had in himself. He took on his commitment in the Foundation with his typical seriousness, being present at every meeting and becoming available to any further confrontation besides the formal engagement. He has always showed a deep respect for the work of the Foundation, particularly for the Research Area with which he closely cooperated. He was always careful and systematically updated about his research field, as well as the ongoing debates at international level on the research policies and financing. Moreover he always shared with his collaborators the more recent progresses, carefully selected in the fields closer to the activities of the Foundation, bringing always new life to the debate in the Subcommittee. I can say without any doubt that is unusual to find, in personalities of such a distinction and competence, a spirit of cooperation and a sincere willingness to operate personally for the sake of the research, and to ensure the transparency of methods and choices, even when unpopular. I am therefore honored of the invitation I have received, because it gives me the occasion to recall in particular the commitment of Paolo Mantegazza in favour of the new generations and the “frontier” research. I think that an example can clarify the open mindedness and the propensity to innovation that characterized his personality. Paolo was very alert to the role of the financing mechanisms in the development of the creativity in the research. In particular, he was aware of to what extent the financing agencies, the governments and the companies tended to give priority – at the international level and even more in Italy – to lines of action intended to achieve short-term results, driven by the exigence to give account to the public opinion or to maximize their investments. The methods used in the selection of the proposals tend to reward the excellence placing one’s trust in subjects who already possess preliminary results or who own a rich curriculum vitae, considered as a guarantee of future success. Besides, Paolo Mantegazza was strongly convinced that strict disciplinary bounds in the distribution of funds could disadv","PeriodicalId":119535,"journal":{"name":"Istituto Lombardo - Accademia di Scienze e Lettere - Incontri di Studio","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114760890","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Francesco Giovanni Brugnaro, Archbishop of Camerino - San Severino Marche, offers a personal testimony of his experience as a priest, friend and colleague of the Rectoral Prof. Paolo Mantegazza, who he met in the years ‘89-’95 during his chaplain service at the Rectory of Santa Maria Annunciata of the University of Milan. In addition to the affectionate and grateful remembrance towards the exemplary role of rector, father and teacher, he adds some characteristics regarding the relationship that Prof. Mantegazza knew to weave with the university students, careful to consider the person as a whole rather than as a subject impersonal and anonymous. This special attention stemmed from the profound conviction that education is much more than simple teaching. He introduced in his long experience as a teacher the one that transformed his courses into real schools of life: the human and ethical contribution to face the most difficult future challenges in the professional field. For this reason he was also a great mediator for the very talented teachers to keep the relationship between scientific and didactic research high, between the quality of the preparation for the doctorate-specialization and the moral and methodological seriousness of the future professional. In the memory of Mons. Brugnaro, the pain that struck the Mantegazza family for the tragic and premature disappearance of the two beloved sons is preserved. Inspired also by Don Giussani’s charism, together with his wife Andreina, he was able to transform that lacerating pain into an exemplary witness of Christian life founded on the Resurrection of Christ. The common attendance of the Archbishop of Milan from 1979 to 2002, allowed both to live a daily faith, drawn from the prophetic vision of the biblical pastoral of Card. Martini also within the University, stimulating the chair of non-believers.","PeriodicalId":119535,"journal":{"name":"Istituto Lombardo - Accademia di Scienze e Lettere - Incontri di Studio","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132640777","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
