Members gathered to discuss ideas, share scholarly work, and support the development of Italian cultural identity during a period of significant artistic and literary activity. The academy played a role in fostering national pride and intellectual engagement, contributing to the broader Enlightenment efforts in Italy aimed at modernizing and enriching Italian culture.
