tematici

Tematici is the plural masculine form of tematico, an Italian adjective meaning relating to a theme or subject. The feminine plural is tematiche. The term is used to describe things organized around topics rather than by chronology, geography, or other criteria. It is common in education, museology, publishing, journalism, and cultural programming.

In practice, tematici is used to designate thematic units, sections, or collections. Examples include unità tematiche (thematic units) in a curriculum, una mostra tematica (a thematic exhibition), and una bibliografia tematica (a thematic bibliography). When referring to multiple items that share a topic, one uses tematici or tematiche to agree with the noun they modify, for instance "sezioni tematiche" (thematic sections) or "percorso tematico" (thematic path). Thematic labeling is also found in programs, curricula, and media planning to emphasize coherence around a central subject.

Etymology and related forms: tematici derives from tema (theme) with the adjectival suffix -tico. Related terms include tematica (thematic aspect or feminine noun) and tematicamente (thematically). The concept of tematizing or organizing content by themes is widespread in Italian-speaking educational, cultural, and professional contexts, reflecting a focus on subject-centered interpretation and presentation rather than purely chronological or geographic organization.
