Marta Menghini received her degree in Mathematics from the University of Rome "La Sapienza". She is associate professor in the Department of Mathematics of the same University. She produced papers in the field of combinatoric geometry, of mathematics education, of the history of mathematics education, and of the history of mathematics. In this latter field she worked on the development of projective and algebraic geometry in the last century: a paper published in 1986 in Historia Mathematica concerned a correspondence between Luigi Cremona and Max Noether, a further paper published in the same journal with G. Israel was devoted to the different philosophic and scientific visions of Henri Poincaré and Federigo Enriques relative to qualitative analysis. The role of projective geometry in Italian education and institutions at the end of the 19th century is described in a paper appeared the first volume of the International Journal for the history of mathematics education, in 2006. In 2008 she edited, together with F. Arzarello, F. Furinghetti e L. Giacardi, the volume The First Century of the International Commission on Mathematical Instruction. Reflecting and Shaping the World of Mathematics Education, published on the occasion of the centennial of the International Commission of Mathematical Instruction by Enciclopedia Italiana. Together with F. Furinghetti. and J. M Matos., she wrote the chapter “From Mathematics and Education, to Mathematics Education” in the Third International Handbook of Mathematics Education, published by Springer in 2013, concerning the historical development of mathematics education as an academic field. With E. Berbin she wrote the chapter about “History of Teaching Geometry” in the International Handbook on History of Mathematics Education (Springer, 2013). In the Encyclopedia of Life Support Systems (EOLSS), published by UNESCO-EOLSS Joint Committee, she wrote the chapter on the History of Mathematics Education in Italy http://www.mat.uniroma1.it/persone/menghiniMarta Menghini received her degree in Mathematics from the University of Rome "La Sapienza".
