Today marks the centenary of Giuseppina Martinuzzi’s (14 Feb 1844 – 25 Nov 1925) death. Martinuzzi was a prominent Istrian and Triestine social and political activist, journalist, editor, writer, and teacher. On this occasion, her collection (preserved at Labin Public Museum) has been digitized.

There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to oral history interviews, but after years of listening and learning, we’ve found that these five core practices make a real difference, from careful preparation to thoughtful preservation.

I am trying to roughly locate an address but I only have a few details and maps are proving a bit gnarly for a total outsider 🙃 #18c #vienna

Interesting: this is the word cloud of the profile descriptions of everyone who follows me.
Clearly a strong mix of digital humanities, university, research, and data — with a good dose of art, history, and tech.

Makes me wonder: what would yours look like?

📍 Pola, 1944
Elda Bradičić, impiegata alla Cassa di Risparmio, sottraeva materiali per la Resistenza. Il suo capoufficio, fascista solo di facciata, la copriva in silenzio. Quando la situazione si fece pericolosa, fuggì e si unì ai partigiani.
