This book was released on 2023-12-31 with total page 1178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Italiano]: In un momento così significativo per la storia europea e mondiale, questo volume vuole essere la raccolta di riflessioni scientifiche condotte sui rapporti tra le scelte politiche, le azioni militari e la fisionomia delle città e del paesaggio urbano, sull’evoluzione delle strutture e delle tecniche di difesa, sulla rappresentazione della guerra e dei suoi effetti sull’immagine urbana, sul recupero delle tracce della memoria cittadina. Da una parte il campo delle Digital Humanities apre nuove prospettive per studiare l'immagine della città prima, durante e dopo la guerra, dall’altro le tecnologie digitali impegnano studiosi e ricercatori di varie discipline: in particolare nell’ambito del disegno viene esplorato il ruolo della rappresentazione nella formulazione dei progetti urbani di difesa e nella documentazione degli eventi bellici e delle tracce lasciate dai conflitti, mentre nell’ambito del restauro vengono approfondite le sfide teoriche e pratiche imposte dai danni arrecati dai conflitti ai centri storici, passando in rassegna casi studio, soluzioni e dibattiti relativi alla conservazione del patrimonio urbano coinvolto in azioni di guerra, con un'attenzione particolare all'identità e alla memoria collettiva./[English]: At such a significant moment in European and world history, this volume aims to be a collection of scientific reflections about the relationships between political choices, military actions and the physiognomy of cities and the urban landscape, about the evolution of defence structures and techniques, about the representation of war and its effects on the urban image, and about the recovery of the traces of city memory. On the one hand the field of Digital Humanities opens up new perspectives to study the image of the city before, during and after the war, on the other hand digital technologies engage academics and researchers from various disciplines: In particular, in the area of drawing, the role of representation in the formulation of urban defence projects and in the documentation of wartime events and the traces left behind by conflicts is explored, while in the area of conservation, the theoretical and practical challenges imposed by the damage caused by conflicts to historic centres are explored, reviewing case studies, solutions and debates relating to the conservation of urban heritage involved in wartime actions, with a focus on identity and collective memory.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volume 30 di «Archeologia e Calcolatori» si apre con un inserto speciale, dedicato al trentennale della rivista. Alle introduzioni di F. Djindjian e di P. Moscati, che delineano un quadro dell’informatica archeologica nel suo divenire, seguono gli articoli dei membri del Comitato di Redazione, a testimoniare l’attività di ricerca e di sperimentazione che ha caratterizzato il cammino editoriale della rivista, e il contributo di una giovane laureata dell’Università Bocconi, che ha lavorato a stretto contatto con il team di «Archeologia e Calcolatori». Nella parte centrale sono pubblicati gli articoli proposti annualmente dagli autori. Ne emerge un quadro che rappresenta gli aspetti applicativi più qualificanti dell’informatica archeologica (le banche dati, i GIS, le analisi statistiche, i sistemi multimediali), ma che guarda oggi con sempre maggiore interesse agli strumenti di visualizzazione scientifica e di comunicazione delle conoscenze. Il volume si chiude con gli Atti del XII Workshop ArcheoFOSS (Free, Libre and Open Source Software e Open Format nei processi di ricerca archeologica), un’iniziativa lodevole, nata nel 2006, cui si è più volte dato spazio nelle pagine della rivista.

Download or read book The Palazzo Pamphilj in Piazza Navona written by Stephanie C. Leone and published by Harvey Miller. This book was released on 2008 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this first-ever comprehensive book on the architecture of the Palazzo Pamphilj, Stephanie Leone identifies the construction of this palace, built for Pope Innocent X Pamphilj (1644-55) and his sister-inlaw, Donna Olimpia Maidalchini, as the catalyst for the renovation of Piazza Navona. Previously, misconceptions had hindered an accurate understanding of the palace's history, architecture, patronage, and urbanism and of its place in architectural history." "Based on extensive archival research, an analysis of the architectural drawings, and an examination of the building fabric, Leone presents a fundamentally revised building history that hinges on architectural collaboration between the patrons, architects, and architectural adviser. She explores the relationship between residential architecture and social identity to show that Innocent X sought to insert the Pamphilj physically and metaphorically into the heart of the city as a means of communicating his family's preeminent position in the competitive world of papal Rome." "In analyzing the Pamphilj's residence in Piazza Navona over the course of two centuries, Leone argues that the Palazzo Pamphilj and its owners were both protagonists and products of their environs. As retold in this book, the story of the Palazzo Pamphilj in Piazza Navona rests at the core of architecture and urbanism in mid-seventeenthcentury Rome."--BOOK JACKET.

Download or read book La citt storica come opportunit Recupero urbano e nuovi modelli di sviluppo in America Latina written by Emanuela De Menna and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2012-11-19 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volume raccoglie riflessioni sul tema del recupero della città storica sviluppate a partire da due seminari svolti in Cile e in Uruguay. L'obiettivo è di proporre ragionamenti che siano utili sia per la realtà europea che per quella latinoamericana. Ragionare di recupero urbano oggi vuole sostanzialmente dire pensare e ripensare l'intera sfera dello sviluppo urbano, delle politiche pubbliche e delle logiche di azione di cui queste politiche si fanno portatrici. I casi di recupero di manufatti, brani di città o interi centri storici sono in continua crescita in America Latina e, in forma diversa, non si sono mai fermati in Italia. Il ritorno di interesse verso la città costruita, sia per fattori endogeni, sia per fattori esogeni, sembra dunque connotare lo scenario odierno nelle città e indirizzarne l'evoluzione degli approcci di governo.

Download or read book Churchmen and Urban Government in Late Medieval Italy c 1200 c 1450 written by Frances Andrews and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-11-28 with total page 429 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why, when so driven by the impetus for autonomy, did the city elites of thirteenth-century Italy turn to men bound to religious orders whose purpose and reach stretched far beyond the boundaries of their often disputed territories? Churchmen and Urban Government in Late Medieval Italy, c.1200–c.1450 brings together a team of international contributors to provide the first comparative response to this pivotal question. Presenting a series of urban cases and contexts, the book explores the secular-religious boundaries of the period and evaluates the role of the clergy in the administration and government of Italy's city-states. With an extensive introduction and epilogue, it exposes for consideration the beginnings of the phenomenon, the varying responses of churchmen, the reasons why practices changed and how politics and religious identity relate to each other. This important new study has significant implications for our understanding of power, negotiation, bureaucracy and religious identity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mediterranean region is distinguished by an architectural heritage of great richness and diversity. This book focuses on the preservation and enhancement of this heritage. As the building and construction sector is one of the largest emitters of greenhouse gases, there is much effort to replace traditional materials with environmentally friendly materials. Great efforts are made to prioritize the use of eco-materials instead of conventional materials. There is a trend to use local materials, such as earth, stone or wood, due to their sustainability and highly favorable environmental footprint.

Download or read book Building Renaissance Venice written by Richard John Goy and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2006-01-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings to life the story of the construction of some of the most outstanding early Renaissance buildings in Venice. Through a series of individual case studies, Richard J. Goy explores how and why great buildings came to be built. He addresses the practical issues of constructing such buildings as the Torre dell’Orologio in Piazza San Marco, the Arsenale Gate, and the churches of Santa Maria della Carita and San Zaccaria, focusing particular attention on the process of patronage. The book is the first to trace the complete process of creating important buildings, from the earliest conception in the minds of the patrons--the Venetian state or other institutional patrons--through the choice of architect, the employment of craftsmen, and the selection of materials. In an interesting analysis of the participants’ roles, Goy highlights the emerging importance of the superintending master, the protomaestro.
