DH as an Ideal Educational Environment: the Ethnographic Museum of La Spezia

The authors present the outcomes of an educational experimentation that took place in the academic year 2018-2019 at the degree course in Informatica Umanistica at the University of Pisa. The first objective of the project concerned the digitization of a corpus of postcards from the period of the First World War owned by the ethnographic Museum of La Spezia "G. Podenzana". The aims of the work are not only the historical study of the corpus, but also the organization of a public history project with the Museum.
