However, differently from Florence, Milan and Venice, the ‘School of Rome’ did not outline a unique ‘tendency’. Nevertheless, it is unquestionable that the presence of prominent figures like Marcello Piacentini, Gustavo Giovannoni, Adalberto Libera, Bruno Zevi and Ludovico Quaroni have traced well-defined paths and left a complex inheritance, absorbed and metabolized in a diversified language. Among the students, more than 200.000, female architects, graduated during almost a hundred years of activity, represent an ever-increasing percentage, although, on them, nothing has been said as a group yet. How was the comparison with their male colleagues? What were their reference models? What are the difficulties they still face today? The aim of the research is to provide a wide frame of women graduated from the Faculty of Architecture in Rome and comparing the different generational outcomes by pondering the historical fate of the pioneers and by collecting the personal experiences of the heirs with a series of direct interviews.
