This is the translation of a passage in http://scienzaa2voci.unibo.it/biografie/86-roccati-cristina. It really solidifies her achievements if the quote can be verified:

  • Gian Alberto Colombo, her professor of astronomy and mathematics at the University of Padua, compared her to Vittoria Colonna, Laura Bassi and Maria Gaetana Agnesi. (November 6, 1752.)
  • [Correspondence Roccati-Colombo, published in G. Grotto, Lodi of Dr. Cristina Roccati, Venice, Fracasso, 1815; cit. in M.L. Soppelsa, E. Viani, 1999, pp. 218-19.]
