Valorizzazione e gestione delle informazioni
2017
Il volume indaga sulle dialettiche tra valorizzazione e conservazione materiale delle preesistenze, additando utili scenari di ricerca da percorrere congiuntamente, anche con l'ausilio della didattica, perchè le azioni di valorizzazione 'tangibili' non rechino nocumento alle azioni di tutela preordinate. Il volume illustra inoltre casi concreti di best practices (Tecnologie ICT, Data-base, Gis, ricostruzioni virtuali, website ecc..., ). I contributi presenti nel volume confermano la consapevolezza che questa nuova s da che ci perviene dall’esterno, possa divenire per noi, attori del restauro architettonico, un ulteriore spazio di ricerca, anche stimolante per una nuova visione del patrimoni…
Connaissance et mise en valeur du patrimoine archéologique. Donner un sens et saisir le sens des vestiges du passé: le cas d’Agrigente
2016
Il contributo tratta del senso attuale della valorizzazione, da basare imprescindibilmente sulla conoscenza e vincolare agli interessi e istanze della società contemporanea.
GASTRONOMIC AND FOOD TOURISM AS AN ECONOMIC LOCAL RESOURCE: CASE STUDIES FROM ROMANIA AND ITALY
2018
The aim of this study was to contribute to the literature on food tourism by proposing the concept of place and events linked to food, and to analyze the opportunity of gastronomic tourism for local development around Romania (Sibiu Region) and Italy (Sicily Region). The materials were 336 interviews with tourists. Specially designed questionnaire allowed fast data collection. The questions were of qualitative and quantitative type, useful to encode the expressed opinions of the tourists. The results highlight the need for destination marketing organizations to pay more attention to the link between destination image and food events. It concludes that tourism practices enable the continuity…

Application of a polymer-based photocatalytic coating for the protection of limestone stones substrates: an exposure study
2022
In the last decades there have been several studies on cultural heritage regarding the performance of protective and consolidating coatings for the prevention of decay. A coating must have several characteristics such as: efficiency, breathability, and must be durable and reversible. In this research work we tried to verify the performance of a commercial protective product such as Fosbuild FBLE 200, which is composed of a TiO2 nanopowder dispersed in an aqueous solution of an acrylic polymer. This product, which exhibits depolluting, antimicrobial, water-repellent and self-cleaning characteristics, has been applied on different lithotypes such as: Carrara marble, Noto and Comiso stone and …
GeoHeritage-GIS: il sito web del patrimonio monumentale del Centro Storico di Palermo
2009
Abstract GeoHeritage-GIS (GH-GIS), a web site concerning Palermo Historic Centre monumental Heritage, developed within Project 7T7 Cluster C29, funded by MIUR, has been designed as a permanent interface between who studies the hazard factors interesting this area and a vast category of final users which operate to safeguard Palermo Monumental Heritage, a very precious common weal. These end-users will benefit from homogeneously collected, frequently improved and periodically updated data concerning soil properties, seismic effects and all of that can help to define the hazard exposition of each monument, having an important tool in establishing a scale of priorities for interventions and re…

Integration of high resolution spatial and spectral data acquisition systems to provide complementary datasets for cultural heritage applications
2010
International audience; Modern optical measuring systems are able to record objects with high spatial and spectral precision. The acquisition of spatial data is possible with resolutions of a few hundredths of a millimeter using active projection-based camera systems, while spectral data can be obtained using filter-based multispectral camera systems that can capture surface spectral reflectance with high spatial resolution. We present a methodology for combining data from these two discrete optical measuring systems by registering their individual measurements into a common geometrical frame. Furthermore, the potential for its application as a tool for the non-invasive monitoring of painti…
Design, agro-food and cultural heritage for sustainable local economy development
2016
The aim of this paper is to describe, using the sustainable design process, the relationships between tourism, agro-food traditional products and cultural heritage to regenerate local development. For this purpose the study investigate the territory of Modica, a specific area in the south-east side of Sicily (province of Ragusa). The project is based on the approach of circular economy to enhance and use derivatives and waste of the selection process from the supply chain of Modica cottoia broad bean. The paper is divided in two sections one about the research step and the other about design step. The research step begins with the exploration and collection of information in order to examin…
Introducing Teenagers to a Dialogue with Judaism as the Task of School Catechesis
2014
This analysis proves that introducing teenagers to a dialogue with Judaism is one of catechesis’s tasks. This task has been outlined in the post-conciliar documents of the Catholic Church. It underlines the spiritual ties between Catholic people and the Jews and promotes forming an attitude of openness towards followers of the Mosaic religion. It also contributes to mitigating anti-Semitism among Catholic teenagers. At the same time, it raises interest in Jewish traditions and culture. In the religion syllabus in lower and post-secondary schools we can come across numerous references (mainly indirect) to Judaism. The focus on passing honest knowledge about Judaism can be also clearly visibl…
