Pietro Tacchini (1838-1905) and Giuseppe Lorenzoni (1843-1913)

Five letters from Tacchini-Lorenzoni correspondence

The long time friendship between Giuseppe Lorenzoni and Piero Tacchini began in December 1870 and is testified by the large correspondence – almost 500 letters – continued until 1904. The five selected letters show the main stages of the development of the “Italian Spectroscopits Society”.
