Renaissance Itineraries between Nebrodi and Peloritani: Architectural Heritage, History and Technology

subject

description

Within the general framework of a research Project of Relevant National Interest (PRIN 2017), entitled “The Renaissance in Southern Italy and the Islands: Cultural Heritage and Technology”, the research unit based at Palermo University focused on the inner area that includes Nebrodi and Peloritani mountains, as a quite unexplored and stimulating environment in the specific field of investigation. The scientific relevance of the investigation on “Renaissance itineraries” in this territory, for a deeper understanding of the overall cultural phenomenon in the island, guided this choice, as well as the opportunity to create cultural networks among small local communities, encouraging their sustainable development. This aim will be pursued by exploiting the relations between cultural heritage and new smart technologies, developing the prototype of an App facilitating the actual possibility of visiting monuments and sites.
