Una è la forma, molti sono i nomi : scenari del sacro femminile tra la Sicilia e Creta

2022

Nei culti rivolti alle Madonne e alle Sante in Sicilia e a Creta, in particolare in quelli caratterizzati dall’ostensione e dalla manipolazione di fronde vegetali, dall’uso di acque salutifere, dal riutilizzo di antichi spazi cultuali (grotte, cime montuose, boschi), sembra continuino a reiterarsi modelli mitici e simboli rituali propri di un antico pattern del sacro femminile che, di volta in volta, disarticolato e rimodulato, si rivela tutt’altro che inattuale e che anzi continua a conferire senso alle molteplici e rinnovate istanze dell’esperienza religiosa contemporanea. Che si voglia ammettere ovvero respingere l’ipotesi di una relazione storica delle espressioni del sacro femminile e …

La fortuna del capitello ionico nella Gortina imperiale: i modelli microasiatici e le rielaborazioni in marmo grigio locale

2020

Le indagini archeologiche nella città di Gortina hanno riportato in luce alcuni capitelli ionici di modello microasiatico in marmo importato, databili alla seconda metà del II sec. d.C., ma anche un gran numero di capitelli ionici in marmo grigio locale, con ogni evidenza prodotti in loco tra la fine del II e gli inizi del III sec. d.C. Si tratta di membrature riutilizzate in edifici più tardi e spesso reimpiegate come materiale da costruzione o rifunzionalizzate in vari modi. La loro relativa abbondanza, per alcuni versi insolita, testimonia non solo la peculiare fortuna del tipo nella capitale cretese, ma anche la grande attività degli atelier di scalpellini locali, almeno a partire dalla…

La scoperta, sistemazione e conservazione della grande Iscrizione di Gortina, nell'isola di Creta (1884-1921): la protezione delle testimonianze e le…

2013

La scoperta e la conservazione della Grande Iscrizione di Gortina a Creta, da parte degli studiosi italiani, fra la fine del XIX sec. e i primi decenni del XX sec., rappresentò un grande riconoscimento scientifico-culturale per la giovane nazione italiana. Nel passato, l’isola di Creta era stata legata alla Repubblica di Venezia e anche questo rapporto favorì l’invio a Creta del giovane epigrafista F. Halbherr, il quale fra notevoli peripezie rinvenne, assieme all’epigrafista tedesco E. Fabricius, la famosa l’iscrizione nell’antica città di Gortina. L’iscrizione, fra le più antiche e complete finora conosciute in tutta Europa, conteneva le norme sulla famiglia, l’eredità e in generale i dir…

The discovery and preservation of the Great Inscription of Gortyna in Crete by Italian researchers in the late nineteenth century. and the first decades of the twentieth century. was an important cultural and scientific recognition for the young Italian nation. In the past the island of Crete had been tied to the Republic of Venice and this report also favored sending in Crete the young epigraphist F. Halbherr who among considerable vicissitudes came to together to the epigraphist german E. Fabricius the inclusion of the famous ancient city of Gortyna. The inscription among the oldest and most comprehensive so far known throughout Europe the rules contained on the family's legacy in general and the rights and duties of some of the people of the Minoan civilization (480-450 BC). The inscription was carved on blocks organic limestone a restored ancient building which later in Roman times was turned into odeon. The Laws of Gortyn were engraved on the remains of the wall forming the passageway in front of the steps of the odeon. The essay traces the events that led to the discovery and subsequent storage made by Halbherr especially with the help of archaeologist L. Pernier and finally with the help of architect E. Stefani who designed a modern cover on the top of the ambulatory of the segments containing the inscription. This coverage was made to perform during the First World War on the basis of the Italian project from the Greek Government in order to protect the membership from possible war damage but especially from vandalism. The roof brick clay of the Laws of Gortyna still serves its function and ensures the use of the monument bearing witness to the preservation of Italian culture in Greece and more generally in the world. But in Sicily in the remains of the Villa del Casale in Piazza Armerina (Enna) its elegant protection (built in 1957) is representative of a whole period of culture of the Italian restoration is removed and replaced because it has not been able to make a ongoing maintenance is due. A bad example of conservation and management of a UNESCO monument from which arise after the work for the construction of new roofs an equally insulting to the archaeological heritage and scenic Italian and world.Settore ICAR/19 - Restauro

Die Ausgießung des zweifachen Geistes. Zwei unikale Szenen in der Soter-Kirche in Kephali auf Kreta

2016

Im venetianisch besetzten Kreta des 14.Jhs. zeigen sich vermehrt westliche Einflüsse in Ikonographie und Stil auf den Wandmalereien der byzantinischen Kirchen. Auch szenische Neuschöpfungen werden vereinzelt in das traditionelle, festgelegte Bildprogramm aufgenommen. So auch in der Soter-Kirche in Kephali auf Kreta (Präfektur Chania, Bezirk Kissamos). Dort gibt es zwei bis heute nicht eindeutig entschlüsselte, enigmatische Szenen. Durch methodische Arbeitsschritte der typologischen Zuordnung und der Eingliederung in das Gefüge der gesamten Bildkomposition lassen sich diese außergewöhlichen bildlichen Darstellungen sinnvoll erklären und thematisch einordnen.

Phytosociological notes on the Lygeum spartum grasslands from Crete.

2002

Lygeum spartum grasslands from Crete have been studied by the application of the phytosocological method. A new alliance, Scorzonero creticae-Lygeion sparti and three new associations and have been recognized. The first, Limonio hyssopifolii-Lygeetum sparti occurs on halomorphyc badlands in the Sitia territory (NE Crete); the second Erodio crassifolii-Lygeetum sparti grows on heavily eroded clayey outcrops close to Hyerapetra (SE Crete); the third Convolvulo oleifolii-Lygeetum sparti, substitutes the previous one some Km eastward from Hyerapetra, on stratified marls alternated to conglomerates. Within the last association, two subassociations have been recognized: limonietosum roridi (typic…

Statue ritratto "ideali" a Gortina

2018

The paper deals with the category of the “statua - rischen Idealporträts”, treating the few specimens until now recognizable within the large corpus of Roman sculptures collected in the city of Gortyn at Crete. A high-quality example of Hadrianic age was found by Prof. Antonino Di Vita, head of the large scale excavations in the site, during the 1988–1990 field season in the area NW of the “Praetorium”, adjoining the Caput aquae of the Roman aqueduct. Beside this spectacular find, two acephalous torsos of the “Diomedes” type are suitable to have been used for portrait statues, most probably for a couple of emperors. These latter are old surface finds in an area (W of the theatre near the Py…

Distribution patterns of the parrotfish Sparisoma cretense in the Plemmirio’s MPA

2016

Marine protected areas (MPAs), when designated correctly and managed well, provide a plethora of conservation benefits for current and future generations (i.e. increased habitat heterogeneity at the seascape level, increased abundance of threatened species and habitats, and maintenance of a full range of genotypes). The distribution pattern of an important target species from the Mediterranean Sea, the parrotfish Sparisoma cretense, was determined in the Plemmirio MPA (Siracuse, Italy) during summer of 2014. Sampling was carried out by means of underwater visual census techniques at two different depth (0/10 m and 10/20 m respectively) at four sampling sites within the reserve boundaries an…

Contribution to the knowledge of flora and vegetation of Krissi islet (Crete,SE Mediterranean sea)

2000

The results of a floristic and vegetational investigation on the Aegean islet of Krissi are presented. Its vascular flora numbers 172 taxa (species, subspecies and hybrids), 92 of which are new records. A species new to science, Limonium chrissianum, is described and illustrated and two new combinations, Limonium roridum and Teucrium dumulosum, are proposed. Furthermore, an iconography of the fruited Bupleurum gaudianum, a rare endemic known up to now only from the islet of Gaudos is provided. The phytosociological analysis identifies 8 associations, including relevés of maquis, phrygana, salt marshes, psammophilous and rupicolous vegetation. The observed association, six of which are here …
