Julius Caesar–Manara Valgimigli Lyceum (Italian: Liceo Giulio Cesare–Manara Valgimigli) is a multidisciplinary lyceum in Rimini, in the region of Emilia-Romagna, northern Italy.

Dedicated to Julius Caesar and Manara Valgimigli,[1] the secondary school comprises four specialised establishments across two campuses:[2][3] its best-known classical lyceum, and schools in human sciences, linguistics, and economic and social sciences.[3] An annual index by an agency of the Giovanni Agnelli Foundation [it] consistently ranks the lyceum as the leading scuola superiore in the Province of Rimini.[4][5]

The consituent establishments of the Caesar–Valgimigli Lyceum collectively comprise Rimini's largest secondary school by new yearly student intake.[6] In October 2023, the provincial government accepted that the school could split into three separate institutions from the 2024–25 academic year.[3]

History edit

The school's roots date to a municipal ginnasio established in the Palazzo Gambalunga in November 1800,[2][7][8] made necessary by the Cisalpine Republic's abolition of schools and seminaries run by the Catholic Church.[8][9] In 1908,[9][10] the ginnasio was nationalised and dedicated to Giosuè Carducci;[8][10] Carducci had applied for a teaching post in literature at the ginnasio in 1856, and was rejected by Rimini's municipal government for his inexperience.[11]

In 1931, a classical lyceum dedicated to Julius Caesar opened at Palazzo Buonadrata, on the Corso d'Augusto, Rimini's decumanus maximus.[8][9] In 1940, it was nationalised and merged with the ginnasio, with all classes moving to Palazzo Buonadrata.[9]

In 1996,[2][8] the classical lyceum moved to its present location in Via Bringhenti,[2][1] ocupying the site of the former "Carlo Tonini" elementary school.[1][8] For the occasion, a book was published by one of its professors reconstructing the history of the school.[9]

In 1998, the lyceum merged with a psycho-pedagogical lyceum. The municipal government had founded the institute as a teacher training college on 13 August 1946. Its direction was assumed by the central goverment on 10 January 1966. After the suppression of non-university teacher training colleges in 1974, the institute began to offer psycho-pedagogical courses, and was dedicated to Manara Valgimigli in 1975. In the late 1990s, the institute definitively became a psycho-pedagogical lyceum. Over its history, it had moved between various campuses, from Piazzetta Teatini to the Palazzo Gambalunga, Via Farini, and Vicolo Montirone.[9]

On 20 December 2019, the lyceum opened a new 150-square-metre (1,600-square-foot) campus in Viserba, in Rimini's northern suburbs, for students specialising in linguistics and economic and social sciences.[12]

In October 2023, the provincial government accepted that the school could split into three separate institutions from the 2024–25 academic year: two in Rimini's city centre and one combined institution in Viserba.[3]

Organisation edit

Split between campuses in Rimini's city centre and Viserba,[3] the secondary education establishment comprises four specialised schools:[2][9] a classical lyceum (471 students) and human sciences lyceum (817 students) in Rimini's city centre; and a linguistics high school (825 students) and economic and social lyceum (391 students). The school comprises 250 teachers.[3] The Viserba campus, opened in December 2019, contains 43 classrooms, a library, and scientific laboratories in a 150-square-metre (1,600-square-foot) area.[12]

The linguistic high school, which uses CLIL, offers double-diplomas through partnerships with other European schools and a school in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, Rimini's twin city.[2] It formerly hosted language exchanges with two high schools in Saint Petersburg.[13]

The school offers extracurricular classes dedicated to theatre, sports, and choral singing.[2] It has an alumni association which organises regular reunions at the school.[14]

  • Eugenio Pagnini (c. 1949) – modern pentathlete at the 1928 and 1932 Summer Olympics, taught physical education at the lyceum[23]
  • Tina Crico (real name Roxane Pitt; 1930s) –,an elusive MI6 agent who taught literature at the lyceum in the 1930s while spying on Rimini's political elites, as retold in Il registro della spia, a 2007 novel by alumna Federicomaria Muccioli[9][24][25]

In popular culture edit

The lyceum likely inspired the school in alumnus Federico Fellini's 1973 Oscar-winning film Amarcord, whose plot concerns a Riminese schoolboy studying in Fascist Italy.[26]
