Stèles funéraires d'époque ibérique
2003
We wish to present in this paper a general study of the funereal stelas in Iberian culture. We begin with the analysis of the Peninsular tradition preceding the development of the Iberian world in order to consider this type of funereal monument within the landscape of cemeteries which seem to be more and more complex and varied. We will assess the different groups of stelas (5th-1st centuries B.C.) on the basis of their morphology, iconography and, in some cases, epigraphs. We present some examples from the provinces of Castellón and Teruel which have been subjected to recent studies.

Invocaciones duplicadas a los dioses Manes en inscripciones romanas de Hispania
2018
Presentamos en estas páginas ocho testimonios de inscripciones romanas que muestran la repetición de la fórmula D(is) M(anibus) s(acrum) o D(is) M(anibus). Todos los textos pueden ser datados entre los ss. II y III. La distribución geográfica de estos textos demuestra que se trata de testimonios aislados y que no guardan entre ellos ninguna relación.

All these testimonies can be dated between the II and III centuries A.D. The geographical distribution shows isolated samples without connection. Este trabajo se ha realizado en el marco del proyec…
Stochastic Vulnerability Assessment of Masonry Structures: Concepts, Modeling and Restoration Aspects
2019
A methodology aiming to predict the vulnerability of masonry structures under seismic action is presented herein. Masonry structures, among which many are cultural heritage assets, present high vulnerability under earthquake. Reliable simulations of their response to seismic stresses are exceedingly difficult because of the complexity of the structural system and the anisotropic and brittle behavior of the masonry materials. Furthermore, the majority of the parameters involved in the problem such as the masonry material mechanical characteristics and earthquake loading characteristics have a stochastic-probabilistic nature. Within this framework, a detailed analytical methodological approac…

Free admission in museums and monuments : An exploration of some perceptions of the audiences.
2008
This paper considers the theme of the audiences' perceptions of free admission in national French museums and monuments. The results show that, from an individual perspective, perceptions of free admission are linked to perceptions of price, money and payment, hence complementing perceptions expressed in a collective perspective (a symbolic, political measure causing either adhesion or rejection). These perspectives are generally put forward by both advocates and opponents of the measure in their discussions. These different visions of free admission have managerial implications for managers of museums and monuments. Copyright © 2007 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
Free Entrance Comes at a Price. An Exploration of Some Perceptions of Museums and Monuments Audiences
2006
This paper considers the theme of audiences' perceptions of free of charge entrances in nationalFrench museums and monuments. It relies partly on the results stemming from a study made atthe request of the Département des Etudes et Prospectives of the French Ministère de la Cultureet de la Communication. The results show that, from an individual perspective, perceptions offree entrance are linked to perceptions of price, of money and of the act of payment, hencecomplementing perceptions expressed by the audiences in a collective perspective, generally putforward by advocates and opponents of free entrance in their discussions. In an individualperspective, exemption from payment is perceived…
An exploratory study of the implications of free admission to museums and monuments : perceptions and effects on visiting behaviors.
2007
International audience; What perceptions of free admission to museums and monuments do French visiting and non-visiting audiences have ? What are the consequences of such perceptions on individuals' perceptions, visit-planning and behavior patterns in museums and monuments ? Research conducted between 2002 and 2003 tried to answer these questions by multiangulation applied to data production and analysis. Results show that free admission alter the perceptions of museums and monuments, it is secondary in planning and implementation of visit-planning, and finally it can spark a learning process from the visit that results in the appropriation of a free admission scheme. Conclusions are relate…

Ancient bridges of Sicily: punctual signs of a past that disappears
2018
Sono indelebili i segni lasciati dall’uomo sul territorio, testimonianze che il tempo conserva e la storia ci consegna e il cui insieme costituisce una trama fittissima che si sovrappone alla struttura fisica dell’ambiente, integrandolo e modificandolo. Grandi opere, monumenti universalmente riconosciuti come capolavori della mente e delle mani dell’uomo, ma anche opere minori, manufatti d’uso comune, beni isolati che costituiscono gli elementi puntuali di una più vasta e complessa organizzazione di fenomeni insediativi, le tessere di un mosaico ricco di sfumature e riflessi, frutto di un lungo processo di stratificazione storica. Alla categoria dei beni isolati appartengono le torri, i cas…
