11.ACCADEMIA DELLA CRUSCA:
DOVE NASCE LA LINGUA
Storia, cultura e curiosità: queste le caratteristiche chiave di ciò che significa conoscere La Crusca, la più antica accademia linguistica del mondo.
Il programma ha lo scopo di percorrere le tappe fondamentali del lungo cammino dell’Accademia, dal 1583 fino ad oggi.
Infatti La Crusca prosegue la propria attività editoriale, mette a disposizione del pubblico una Biblioteca specialistica e il proprio Archivio, intrattiene rapporti internazionali con istituzioni analoghe, organizza incontri, seminari e convegni sull’italiano, svolge un ruolo attivo nel campo della politica linguistica europea, in modo particolare con il progetto “Firenze, Piazza delle Lingue d’Europa”.
