Cadmo is an international journal of educational research, assessment and evaluation. Each issue of the journal contains approximately up to 7 articles (in Italian, English, French or Spanish) peer-reviewed according to the ISI standards and brief reports of research in progress.
The journal takes its name from the mythical hero Cadmo who came from Tirus (Tyre), in Phoenicia, and who is believed to have introduced the alphabet in Greece. Protected by Athena, the goddess of wisdom, he killed a snake guarding a sacred spring by throwing stones at it. Cadmo's association with the introduction of the alphabet makes him an appropriate figure for the name of the journal, as the alphabet is the first tool of education. In addition, he came from Phoenicia and thus represents the complex interconnections that lay behind any European culture. Being under the protection of the goddess of wisdom, he can also be seen as a symbolic champion of education against the threat of ignorance and prejudice represented by the snake.
Cadmo is an ISI publication listed in the Social Sciences citation index since 2007.
