Advances in microgeophysics for engineering and cultural heritage

2009

A large number of unconventional investigations have been implemented, tested, and validated in the field of microgeophysics, with the aim being to solve specific diagnostic and/or monitoring problems regarding civil engineering and cultural heritage studies. The investigations were carried out using different tomographic 2D and 3D approaches as well as different energy sources, namely sonic, ultrasonic and electromagnetic (radar) waves, electric potential fields, and infrared thermography. Many efforts have been made to modify instruments and procedures in order to improve the resolution of the surveys as well as to greatly reduce the time of the measurements without any loss of informatio…

Administracyjnoprawny status muzealiów w hiszpańskim porządku prawnym

2021

 Artykuł podejmuje problematykę statusu administracyjnego muzealiów w hiszpańskim systemie prawnym. Przedstawiono założenia ustawy o hiszpańskim dziedzictwie historycznym z 1985 r., która reguluje status dóbr kultury BIC (bienes de interés cultural) – zarówno ruchomości, jak i nieruchomości – oraz poziomy ochrony w zależności od kategorii. Omówiono procedurę nadawania statusu BIC i systemy katalogowania dóbr kultury. System ochrony dóbr kultury w Hiszpanii jest mocno zdecentralizowany, co dotyczy również funkcjonowania muzeów. Hiszpańskie wspólnoty autonomiczne posiadają bogate ustawodawstwo regionalne regulujące wspomnianą problematykę. W artykule przeanalizowano regulacje regionalne w tym…

3D models acquisition and image processing for virtual musealization of the spezieria di Santa Maria della Scala, Rome

2022

This study was carried out within the project “Roma Hispana. Nuevas tecnologías aplicadas al estudio histórico, la musealización y la puesta en valor de Patrimonio Cultural español en Roma: la spezieria di Santa Maria della Scala” (Universitat de València Spain), which is funded by the Conselleria d’Innovació, Universitats, Ciència i Societat Digital of the Generalitat Valenciana (2020–2021) and authorized by the Sovrintendenza Speciale Archeologia Belle Arti e Paesaggio (Special Superintendence of Archeology, Fine Arts and Landscape) of Rome, Italy. The spezieria di Santa Maria della Scala was the oldest apothecary in…

The Sirocco's chamber of Micciulla manor in Palermo : a bioclimatic archetype symbol of legality and civil redemption

2019

La Camera dello scirocco di fondo Micciulla è uno degli oltre trenta esemplari di un antesignano sistema di raffrescamento passivo ipogeo, diffusosi a Palermo tra il XVII e il XVIII secolo. Grotte artificiali scavate al di sotto o in prossimità delle dimore palermitane presso le quali i ricchi signori si rifugiavano per sfuggire alle elevate temperature estive, rese spesso insopportabili dal caldo vento africano di Scirocco. Tra tutte, la Camera dello Scirocco di fondo Micciulla è forse la più nota non solo per la sua particolare e unica struttura “a cielo aperto”, ma anche e soprattutto per i trascorsi storici ad essa legati. Il presente contributo intende ripercorrere le fasi più signific…

THE RELIGIOUS CULTURAL HERITAGE AT RISK OF WAR. A NECESSARY INTERNATIONAL MONITORING FOR PROTECTION

2022

Over the centuries, the religious monumental heritage has been the object of systematic destruction by the oppressors, because it is the depositary of the most deeply rooted values of the subjugated people. The history of the wars of the twentieth century and the protection of monuments during the last world conflict led the international community to reflect on a new way of understanding cultural heritage, not as an asset owned by a people, but as a legacy to be handed down to the future for its universal values. The new means available to international communities for satellite monitoring and control of war zones allow us to work faster and more consciously on this process of protection a…

Governance of cultural heritage: towards participatory approaches

2021

This article analyzes participatory governance in relation to heritage. Based on previous studies on the implementation of participation and theoretical discussions considering the participatory governance of cultural heritage, we found four types of cultural heritage governance, with differing weights with regard to public authorities, civil society, markets, and citizens. Governmental, corporatist, service-led, and co-creative cultural heritage governance types were identified, which reflect the shifts in participatory approaches to governance from state-centered activities to the proliferation of civil society, and from professionally dominated to more citizen-based activities. According…
