Summary: The hypermedia system MuG, developed within a project coordinated by Umberto
Eco, provides a unitary representation of the events of European culture and
history. It covers subjects related to political, social and economic history,
as well as the history of science and technology, arts, literature, philosophy
and religion, enabling the user to switch easily from one cultural aspect to
the other. The system is intended as a learning tool for universities and high
schools, as well as a tool for historical research, presentation, and teaching.
