Download or read book Citt e guerra difese distruzioni permanenze delle memorie e dell immagine urbana Tomo II tracce e patrimoni written by Maria Ines Pascariello and published by FedOA - Federico II University Press. 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.

Download or read book A New World written by Anna Trono and published by tab edizioni. This book was released on 2021-12-31 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The European Cultural Routes of the Emperor Charles V is one of the most significant routes to have been recognised by the European Council. Ruling over distant and strikingly differing lands, Charles V of Hapsburg, the greatest European monarch of the first half of the 16th century, governed an empire that stretched from Holland and Germany to Spain and the Kingdom of Naples, in addition to his constantly growing America domains. The book, A New World. Emperor Charles V and the Beginnings of Globalisation, is an occasion to reflect upon how his reign impacted upon human development and how, through the rapid growth of communications and connectivity, we have ended up where we are now. The reign of Charles V was a major threshold in history that, along with images of the life and culture of the time, the papers in this book amply illustrate.

Book Communication Maintenance in Longue Dur  e

Download or read book Communication Maintenance in Longue Dur e written by Gabriele Balbi and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-09-19 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This interdisciplinary volume focuses on the politics, economics, technologies, uses, and cultures of maintenance of different forms of communication over long time or in Longue Durée. Throughout the chapters, contributors from a wide range of fields explore transversal and trans-temporal issues of communication maintenance. Among these are the struggles to keep communication infrastructures functioning, the hidden work of maintenance done by both experts and non-experts such as everyday users, the political significance of maintaining communications (or not maintaining them), and the different habits and significance of maintenance in different times and world regions. The forms of communication covered include broadcasting, telecommunications such as the telegraph and telephone, digital and popular media as computers and mobile phones, mostly forgotten media like pneumatic tubes, transportation infrastructures, maps as used as tools to politically control land, the clock as a medium and a material artifact, and many more. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of communication and media studies, the history of science and technology, general history, geography, maintenance studies, and other related disciplines.

  • Author : Sharon Hecker
  • Publisher : Univ of California Press
  • Release : 2017-06-13
  • ISBN : 0520294483
  • Pages : 360 pages

Download or read book A Moment s Monument written by Sharon Hecker and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2017-06-13 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medardo Rosso (1858–1928) is one of the most original and influential figures in the history of modern art, and this book is the first historically substantiated critical account of his life and work. An innovative sculptor, photographer, and draftsman, Rosso was vital in paving the way for the transition from the academic forms of sculpture that persisted in the nineteenth century to the development of new and experimental forms in the twentieth. His antimonumental, antiheroic work reflected alienation in the modern experience yet also showed deep feeling for interactions between self and other. Rosso’s art was also transnational: he refused allegiance to a single culture or artistic heritage and declared himself both a citizen of the world and a maker of art without national limits. In this book, Sharon Hecker develops a narrative that is an alternative to the dominant Franco-centered perspective on the origin of modern sculpture in which Rodin plays the role of lone heroic innovator. Offering an original way to comprehend Rosso, A Moment’s Monument negotiates the competing cultural imperatives of nationalism and internationalism that shaped the European art world at the fin de siècle.

Book Archeologia e Calcolatori  32 1  2021

Download or read book Archeologia e Calcolatori 32 1 2021 written by Angela Bellia and published by All’Insegna del Giglio. This book was released on 2021-11-30 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il volume 32.1 è suddiviso in due parti. La prima comprende gli articoli proposti annualmente alla rivista da studiosi italiani e stranieri che illustrano ricerche archeologiche interdisciplinari in cui l’uso delle tecnologie informatiche risulta determinante per l’acquisizione, l’elaborazione e l’interpretazione dei dati. Tecniche di analisi statistica, banche dati, GIS e analisi spaziali, tecniche di rilievo tridimensionale e ricostruzioni virtuali, sistemi multimediali, contribuiscono a documentare le testimonianze del passato e a diffondere i risultati della ricerca scientifica. La seconda parte del volume contiene un inserto speciale curato da Angela Bellia e dedicato a una tematica innovativa, l’archeomusicologia, un campo di ricerca multidisciplinare che adotta i metodi dell’archeologia per lo studio della musica e della vita musicale nel mondo antico. Gli articoli s’incentrano sul ruolo delle tecnologie digitali basate sulla modellazione 3D e sulla simulazione del suono per ampliare le conoscenze sugli strumenti musicali dell’antichità e sul prezioso, ma estremamente labile, patrimonio sonoro. Chiude il volume la sezione dedicata alle Note e recensioni.

Book excerpt: La possibilità di incontrare altre specie, in sistemi lontani della galassia, viene realizzata al passare di un numero imprecisato di generazioni. Colonizzatori terrestri che partono sapendo che non riusciranno, nemmeno, a vedere il nuovo pianeta sul quale vivranno i loro discendenti. L'incontro con civiltà evolutesi in precedenza e civiltà che si oppongono alla evoluzione senza riguardi per l'armonia della natura. La stretta somiglianza evolutiva delle specie superiori, che porta a vedere "cugini" sparsi per la galassia. La pace e la collaborazione quale corretta strada evolutiva. La tradizione dei terrestri viene conservata: nel breve periodo con la III° Guerra Mondiale, che condurrà alla quasi scomparsa dell'uomo, e nel lungo periodo per la guerra fra le colonie terrestri, fermata dall'intervento di misteriose entità.

Download or read book L idea costruita written by Alberto Campo Baeza and published by LetteraVentidue Edizioni. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'idea costruita è il manifesto teorico di Alberto Campo Baeza; una raccolta di testi di varia provenienza che manifesta la chiarezza del suo pensiero e la straordinaria coerenza della sua opera. Concentrandosi sui fondamenti della disciplina (la luce, il confronto con la gravità, il valore delle idee, il flusso incessante della storia) l'autore redige un testo colto ma volontariamente antiaccademico, aperto alle suggestioni delle altre discipline artistiche ma con una evidente passione didattica. I testi sui grandi maestri dell'architettura spagnola (Fisac, De la Sota, Sáenz de Oíza, Coderch, Carvajal), mondiale (Mies van der Rohe, Utzon), o sui colleghi della scena internazionale (Ando, Chipperfield, llinás, Vicens e Ramos) mettono in luce il suo percorso culturale e la sua idea di architettura, basata sul suo rigoroso «más con menos». «La storia dell'architettura, lungi dall'essere solo una storia delle forme, è fondamentalmente una storia delle idee costruite. Le forme si disgregano col tempo ma le idee rimangono, sono eterne». «Un'architettura che ha nell'idea la sua origine, nella luce il suo primo materiale, nello spazio essenziale la volontà di ottenere il più con meno».
