Circulation of an editorial model: The case-study of the short-lived Le Matematiche Pure ed Applicate

In 1900 Christoforo Alasia De Quesada began to work on the editorial project of a new journal Le Matematiche Pure ed Applicate. This journal had as its aim the improvement of scientific knowledge of teachers, to stimulate them in studies and researches. Its creation was encouraged by Henri Brocard, who was also influential in defining Alasia's editorial strategy.Highly functional to the purposes of Alasia's journal was a network of collaborators, which left traces of his work also in other journals. The presence in his network of many editors of journals, like Laisant, Lemoine, Allardice, De Galdeano, Greenstreet, Peano and Mansion, lead us to make some more general considerations on the circulation of journals' editorial models.
