Donna Maria Gaetana Agnesi

The website https://may12.womeninmaths.org/ records events celebrating women in Mathematics from May 1st to June 15th. Why May 12th is the reference day? It is the birthday of Maryam Mirzakhani (1977-2017), the first woman to win the Fields Medal (in 2014). In this context, the tribute of the Mathematical Seminary of Brescia to one of the greatest women in math of the history, Maria Gaetana Agnesi (1718-1799), is a must. In her journey through languages, literature, philosophy, theology, science, and charity, the meeting with a mathematician from Brescia stands out.
