The 'maturità' final high-school
exams got under way for around 526,000 Italian students on
Wednesday with the Italian test.
The students have to write an essay choosing from one of seven
questions.
This year's questions included one inviting a reflection on
Nobel-winning Italian scientist Rita Levi Montalcini's In Praise
of Imperfection and questions on works by Luigi Pirandello and
Giuseppe Ungaretti.
Another question asks the pupils to consider the use of the
atomic bomb in relation to historian Giuseppe Galasso's 'History
of Europe'.
