This book was released on 2024-07-15 with total page 674 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Italiano]: Il libro raccoglie i contributi di un lavoro interdisciplinare svolto durante un BIP (Blended Intensive Program) finanziato dalla comunità europea. Il tema è quello dei siti industriali dismessi e tutelati per interesse storico. Partendo da un confronto tra i diversi approcci basati sullo studio delle best practice e dei diversi metodi e strumenti di analisi, sono state definite alcune premesse per la rappresentazione del sito e lo sviluppo di ipotesi di trasformazione per il riuso dell'ex Corradini a S. Giovanni. Stimolare il dibattito culturale, confrontarsi con realtà culturali diverse, definire percorsi metodologici replicabili sono gli obiettivi principali di questo lavoro./[English]: The book collects the contributions of an interdisciplinary work carried out during a BIP (Blended Intensive Program) funded by the European community. The topic is related to the abandoned industrial sites that are protected for historical interest. Starting from a comparison between the different approaches based on the study of the best practices and the different methods and tools of analysis, some premises have been defined for the representation of the site and the development of transformation hypotheses for reusing of the ex Corradini in S. Giovanni. Stimulating the cultural debate, dealing with different cultural realities, defining replicable methodological paths are the main objectives of this work.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Depuis que le programme de commémoration historique a été inauguré par le gouvernement de l’Ontario en 1956, plus de 1 000 plaques ont été érigées d’un bout à l’autre de la province. La variété des sujets commémorés est étonnante, qu’il s’agisse de ruées vers les mines du nord de l’Ontario ou de l’invention de la vis à tête creuse ... de Harold Innis ou de Stephen Leacock ... de l’épidemie de typhus de 1847 ou de la découverte de l’insuline. La culture populaire est également bien représentée: "Beautiful Joe" commémore un roman célêbre dans le monde entier racontant l’histoire d’un chien ; "When You and I Were Young, Maggie" chante une ballade romantique très en vogue ; "Jumbo" marque l’emplacement où est mort un éléphant de cirque très aimé. L’histoire de l’Ontario, tout comme sa géographie et ses habitants, est vaste et variée. Ce guide peut donc être utile, que l’on circule sur l’autoroute, se promène a la campagne ou flâne dans son propre quartier. Il reste encore tant à découvrir.

Book Camino de Santiago   Via Podiensis

Download or read book Camino de Santiago Via Podiensis written by Dave Whitson and published by Cicerone Press Limited. This book was released on 2024-01-12 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This guidebook describes in full the 735km Via Podiensis (GR65), a historic pilgrimage route through southern France from Le Puy-en-Velay to Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, where the trail meets the famous Camino Francés to Santiago de Compostela (Spain). Also detailed are 2 major variants: the Célé Valley (GR651) and Rocamadour (GR6 and GR46). Split into 28 stages, the full route takes 4 to 6 weeks to complete but can be divided into shorter sections - Figeac and Condom are well positioned to break the walk into three 2-week chunks. It can be adapted to suit all abilities, with regularly spaced accommodation and baggage transport available, and is best walked in spring and autumn, with May and September the most popular months. Abundant accommodation options offer a warm welcome to walkers and pilgrims and a chance to enjoy delicious home-cooked meals made with local ingredients. Walking directions are accompanied by 1;100,000 maps showing the route line and the facilities available at different locations. Accommodation listings provide invaluable information on where to stay. There are useful town maps for Cahors, Condom, Figeac, Le Puy, Moissac and Saint-Jean-Pied-de-Port, and a stage planning table listing intermediate distances between accommodation means the schedule can be easily customised to individual requirements. The Via Podiensis leads pilgrims and walkers through the best of French village life, offering a unique combination of pleasant trails, quaint historic communities and cultural delights. It passes through charming Estaing, Saint-Cirq-Lapopie and Lauzerte, and visits pilgrim shrines including Conques and Rocamadour. Pilgrims carrying on to Santiago can either proceed directly from Saint-Jean on the Camino Francés or transition (via the GR10) over to the Camino del Norte - a skeletal outline of the routes linking Saint-Jean and Irún, Spain, is included in the guidebook.

Book International Handbook of Historical Archaeology

Download or read book International Handbook of Historical Archaeology written by Teresita Majewski and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-06-07 with total page 689 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In studying the past, archaeologists have focused on the material remains of our ancestors. Prehistorians generally have only artifacts to study and rely on the diverse material record for their understanding of past societies and their behavior. Those involved in studying historically documented cultures not only have extensive material remains but also contemporary texts, images, and a range of investigative technologies to enable them to build a broader and more reflexive picture of how past societies, communities, and individuals operated and behaved. Increasingly, historical archaeology refers not to a particular period, place, or a method, but rather an approach that interrogates the tensions between artifacts and texts irrespective of context. In short, historical archaeology provides direct evidence for how humans have shaped the world we live in today. Historical archaeology is a branch of global archaeology that has grown in the last 40 years from its North American base into an increasingly global community of archaeologists each studying their area of the world in a historical context. Where historical archaeology started as part of the study of the post-Columbian societies of the United States and Canada, it has now expanded to interface with the post-medieval archaeologies of Europe and the diverse post-imperial experiences of Africa, Latin America, and Australasia. The 36 essays in the International Handbook of Historical Archaeology have been specially commissioned from the leading researchers in their fields, creating a wide-ranging digest of the increasingly global field of historical archaeology. The volume is divided into two sections, the first reviewing the key themes, issues, and approaches of historical archaeology today, and the second containing a series of case studies charting the development and current state of historical archaeological practice around the world. This key reference work captures the energy and diversity of this global discipline today.

Book Deindustrializing Montreal

Download or read book Deindustrializing Montreal written by Steven High and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2022-06-13 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Point Saint-Charles, a historically white working-class neighbourhood with a strong Irish and French presence, and Little Burgundy, a multiracial neighbourhood that is home to the city’s English-speaking Black community, face each other across Montreal’s Lachine Canal, once an artery around which work and industry in Montreal were clustered and by which these two communities were formed and divided. Deindustrializing Montreal challenges the deepening divergence of class and race analysis by recognizing the intimate relationship between capitalism, class struggles, and racial inequality. Fundamentally, deindustrialization is a process of physical and social ruination as well as part of a wider political project that leaves working-class communities impoverished and demoralized. The structural violence of capitalism occurs gradually and out of sight, but it doesn’t play out the same for everyone. Point Saint-Charles was left to rot until it was revalorized by gentrification, whereas Little Burgundy was torn apart by urban renewal and highway construction. This historical divergence had profound consequences in how urban change has been experienced, understood, and remembered. Drawing extensive interviews, a massive and varied archive of imagery, and original photography by David Lewis into a complex chorus, Steven High brings these communities to life, tracing their history from their earliest years to their decline and their current reality. He extends the analysis of deindustrialization, often focused on single-industry towns, to cities that have seemingly made the post-industrial transition. The urban neighbourhood has never been a settled concept, and its apparent innocence masks considerable contestation, divergence, and change over time. Deindustrializing Montreal thinks critically about locality, revealing how heritage becomes an agent of gentrification, investigating how places like Little Burgundy and the Point acquire race and class identities, and questioning what is preserved and for whom.

Book Le patrimoine est il fr  quentable

Download or read book Le patrimoine est il fr quentable written by Claire Giraud-Labalte and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "L'université d'Angers et l'université catholique de l'ouest ont pris l'initiative d'organiser en 2006, avec le concours de la Mission Val de Loire, une université d'été consacrée à la fréquentation du patrimoine. Ce thème est d'abord l'objet d'une injonction paradoxale. Alors que des pressions multiples s'exercent pour que le peuple admire les sites les plus remarquables, comme les témoignages les plus obscurs, des discours n'ont de cesse de prôner la limitation de l'accès au nom des risques encourus. Ils sont rejoints pas d'autres au nom de l'incapacité que le plus grand nombre aurait à comprendre et à profiter à bon escient de ce bienfait. Or les lieux les plus fréquentés sont les mieux conservés et les héritages sont surtout menacés par l'oubli. Certes, dans certaines situations, l'organisation des flux, souvent plus que la limitation de l'accès, y est une condition première, mais on observe que les barrières sociales sont trop facilement retenues. Par ailleurs, ce sont souvent des cas rares. Dès lors, les enjeux se situent dans la qualité de l'ouverture. D'une part, l'accessibilité et les visites peuvent être gérées de manière à prendre en compte à la fois la protection et les attentes des visiteurs. D'autre part, la connaissance du patrimoine qui constitue une des clés de l'appréciation de la visite peut être apportée par des techniques d'interprétation, sans pour autant constituer la seule modalité de l'expérience vécue"--P.
