The Scientific Journalism According to Elisabetta Caminer: Objectivity, Exactness of Information and Universality (2024)

unapi

Elisabetta Caminer offers the first example in Italy of an editor of literary journals. She wrote in order to divulgate subjects that were not normally accessible to everyone, yet also to combat the prejudices. The attention placed on the exact source of all the news and excerpts reported represented a rather unique case in the history of Italian journalism of the time. In her texts emerge the objectivity of information, the responsibility for expressive choices, sometimes even subversive - as in the choice of the code - and the awareness of change in scientific communication. Science, morality, politics, academies, inventions, education, all these themes found in the pages of the her magazine a scientific, rational, rigorous treatment, which left little room for subjective judgment, yet a great deal for the objectivity of the text. As well as, in her articles we found a commitment to the battle for women’s rights to scientific education.
