L’impegno teorico e didattico di Giuseppe Lombardo Radice fu fortemente orientato a valorizzare la figura dei maestri di scuola primaria. Fra gli anni Dieci e gli anni Trenta del Novecento, egli portò avanti una vera e propria battaglia culturale e politica a favore del potenziamento della preparazione dei maestri e della loro responsabilizzazione nella costruzione della vita nazionale. L’attenzione di Lombardo Radice si è concentrata soprattutto sui protagonisti dell’istruzione popolare, in quanto promotori del riscatto dell’Italia ancora dimenticata e di un paziente e tenace lavoro di emancipazione sociale.

Lombardo Radice's attention focused above all on the protagonists of popular education, as promoters of the redemption of the still forgotten Italy and of a tenacious and patient work of social emancipation.
