2 euro - Maria Montessori - Italy - 2020 - UNC

2 euro coin dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the birth of Maria Montessori, FDC. When Maria Montessori founded the first "Children's House" in 1907 in San Lorenzo in Rome she was already known in Italy for being one of the first women with a degree in medicine in Italy, for her feminist struggles (great clamor sparked her intervention in Europe at the Berlin Women's Congress: 1896, the same year in which he graduated) and for his social and scientific commitment in favor of handicapped children. The method of scientific pedagogy, a volume written and published in Città di Castello (Perugia) during the first specialization course (1909), was translated and accepted all over the world with great enthusiasm: for the first time a different and positive image was presented of the child, indicated the most suitable method for his spontaneous development and demonstrated his rich availability for cultural learning, the possible results of which had never before been imagined and verified.
