Floristic, phenological and chorological differences in the annual vegetation of Sardinia.

2007

The therophytic flora of Sardinia has been split into four main groups, basing on the ecologic requirements of species. The following groups have been recognized: flora of dry entisoils, flora of periodically swampy or submerged entisoils, flora of coastal sites, flora of fields, road edges and human settlements. Either, most frequent or exclusive species were ascribed to each group. A species was considered “exclusive” when its relative frequency outside a given group was estimated ≤10%. Differences have been highlighted within the groups, dealing with chorology, growth form, flowering time, colour of flowers, pollination and seed dispersal strategies.

Biotechnology and Conservation of Cultural Heritage

2017

Over the past few decades, biotechnology has provided innovative techniques useful for diagnosing cultural heritage deterioration induced by microbiological systems and for defining efficient conservation/restoration strategies. Seen from this per- spective, the International Congress on Molecular Biology and Cultural Heritage held in Seville (Spain) in 2003 represents a milestone. This book comes from the experience gained in the last decade of basic and applied research, developed in the Laboratory of Biology and Biotechnology for Cultural Heritage (LaBBCH), within the framework of national and international research projects and in collaboration with other Italian and foreign research in…

Beni culturali: strategie innovative per la governance euromediterranea.

2012

I paesi del Mediterraneo meridionale sono caratterizzati da un patrimonio storico, culturale e ambientale unico che rappresenta un potenziale elemento unificante che contribuisce alla comprensione reciproca e lo scambio culturale con i Paesi europei. Il riconoscimento delle diverse identità culturali dell' "Euromediterraneo" e un legame rafforzato tra di essi è certamente auspicabile: in realtà, potrebbe costituire un contributo fondamentale per creare le condizioni necessarie, in vista di un processo di pace, in modo che lo sviluppo sia impostato su un processo di pianificazione congiunta e su un dibattito scientifico sui temi del patrimonio culturale comune. The Southern Mediterranean Cou…

Presentazione

2013

Il testo propone un articolato commento alle posizioni teoriche e alle linee di ricerca progettuale espresse da Michele Argentino, professore ordinario di Design a Palermo circa la necessità di riconquistare il ruolo sociale alla creatività individuale, riprendendosi il desiderio di diventare nuovamente "Homo Faber". Il testo inoltre presenta gli obiettivi della nuova collana scientifica - diretta dall'autrice - dal Titolo " Design e Contesti": intercettare ambiti di ricerca trasversali alle discipline del progetto, favorire gli intrecci tra idee progettuali e percorsi di innovazione socio-culturale, sviluppare nuove strategie produttive compatibili con i diversi aspetti della sostenibilità.

Settore ICAR/13 - Disegno IndustrialeThe text offers a detailed commentary on the theoretical positions and lines of design research expressed by Michele Argentino Professor of Design in Palermo about the need to regain the social role to individual creativity returning to the desire to become "Homo Faber" again. The text also presents the objectives of the new scientific publishing series - directed by the author - from the title "Design and Contexts": intercept research areas across the disciplines of the project foster the intertwining of project ideas and paths of socio-cultural innovation develop new production strategies compatible with the different aspects of sustainability.

Sine cura. Verso il ri-ciclo dell'architettura del secondo Novecento

2019

Gli argomenti discussi nel saggio interrogano il destino che il Codice dei Beni Culturali (2004- 2011) determina per le opere del secondo Novecento. Nella costruzione del futuro di questi manufatti, che per funzione, tecnologia e cicli d’uso sono spesso segnati dall’obsolescenza e dall’abbandono, le ambiguità e le incongruenze delle attuali procedure legislative sollecitano profondamente il ruolo culturale delle esperienze di ricerca che usano metodologie meta progettuali. Il confronto fra alcuni casi italiani ed altri europei rimarca il ruolo del progetto nella costruzione di una prospettiva di tutela trasformativa per il costruito del secondo Novecento. Nel quadro di azione marcato dall’o…

Settore ICAR/14 - Composizione Architettonica E UrbanaThe essay questions the future's possibilities to operate on the buildings of the second half of the twentieth century according to the Italian Code of Cultural Heritage (2004-2011). When arguing how to encourage the re-use of these artifacts which are often marked by short-life technology cycles obsolescence and abandonment the ambiguities and inconsistencies of current legislative procedures deeply stress the cultural role of research experiences that use project-oriented methodologies. The comparison between some Italian and other European cases highlights the role of a design approach in the construction of a transformative protection perspective for the built matter of the second half of the twentieth century. In a framework aiming to encourage a reconciliation between the recent built environment and the new paradigms of sustainability and circular economy architecture must recognize re-cycle practices as a main theoretical and procedural node. To modernize the late Modern built environment with contemporary construction components is not simply a matter of technical knowledge and expertise: but a theme with theoretical density aesthetic and ethical values. The architectural project in this field today must ask for greater congruence between the bureaucratic and administrative levels and the real consistency of this corpus. It is a matter of identifying strategies to equip it with capabilities meanings and contents remembering that demolition wastes have unsustainable environmental costs and uncertain results concerning the necessary new attribution of political and semantic meaning that these places await.

Prima della "Rivoluzione scientifica": uno sguardo alla ricerca antisismica nella Sicilia d'età moderna (XVI-XVIII secolo)

2021

The contribution presents and examines, through documentary readings, anti-seismic strategies and practices born with experience and with the relationship with history, selected and consolidated over time, applied in Sicilian construction from the sixteenth to the eighteenth century by architects and master builders after the great earthquakes that hit the island in the modern age.

Rural Sharing

2017

In un momento storico in cui la Sharign economy costituisce un nuovo modello di utilizzo di beni e servizi, il contributo - esito dell’attività "Innovazione e creatività nel territorio sicano” Corso di Alta Formazione sull’Innovazione Territoriale - mette a punto una visione per il territorio dei Sicani immaginando una strategia “Rural Sharing” che partendo dall’espressione-perno del modello appena citato, dal concetto I need you have, dal valore che si origina dalla condivisione, e sfruttando la qualità funzionale dei diritti proprietari, mira al riequilibrio degli assetti e alla redistribuzione dei loro valori.

Early pastoral communities in the mountains of Sicily. Prehistoric evidence from Vallone Inferno (Scillato) in the palaeoenvironmental framework of t…

2021

Abstract This paper discusses the Middle Neolithic and the Early Bronze Age phases of the occupation of a rock shelter at Vallone Inferno (Scillato, Palermo) in Sicily. Vallone Inferno is a key site for studying the early establishment and development of pastoralism in the prehistoric mountainous environments of Sicily. Seasonal use of the site as a shelter is documented for the earliest pastoral communities that exploited the Madonie mountain range. The results of the analysis of pottery and lithic assemblages contribute to the definition of two chronocultural frameworks that were linked by the same economic subsistence base. The special role of obsidian emerges, while the mobility pattern…
