Rethink the Inland Areas. A Question of Imagination?
No full textIl contesto pandemico ha innescato in Italia una narrazione diversa rispetto a quella usuale legata all’immaginario delle Aree interne. Non più intese solo come problema o spazi della mancanza, le aree interne sono divenute opportunità per un nuovo approccio allo sviluppo sostenibile, capace di superare la polarizzazione socio-territoriale tra centri urbani e realtà periferiche (Fenu, 2020). Tuttavia, il ritorno alle campagne, alimentato da proposte generiche sul ripopolamento immediato e indistinto delle aree rurali europee e da un immaginario idealizzato che contrappone l’amenità della vita bucolica al caos della città, ma anche la nostalgia del passato alla modernità urbana, appare semplicistico. Le crisi contemporanee mostrano infatti con evidenza – la recente pandemia è solo l’esempio ultimo – le relazioni socio-ecologiche che le innescano, consentendo di riconoscere il carattere strutturale, complesso ed epocale dei fenomeni, al di là di interpretazioni che li inquadrano come congiunturali fornendo risposte inadeguate (Moralli, Allegrini, 2020). Tali relazioni, rimandando dal globale al locale, permettono di inquadrare le sperimentazioni locali come uniche soluzioni possibili contro quelle globali e generiche. Più in generale, aprono spazi per una ri-significazione dell’immaginario (Carmagnola, Matera, 2008), e in particolare per una riflessione sullo stesso antropocentrismo dell’antropocene; offrendo la possibilità di re-inserire l’azione umana all’interno di una catena di agency che vede coinvolte molteplici ed eterogenee specie, umane e non umane (Latour, 2020). Partendo da un’introduzione teorica su immaginario, aree interne e nuove pratiche narrative, l’articolo presenterà poi alcuni esempi concreti di progettazione territoriale dal basso avvenuta all’interno del Festival del turismo responsabile IT.A.CÀ, capaci di fornire significati simbolici e comunicativi alternativi sui paesaggi "ai margini" e "interni" italiani. Questi esempi dimostreranno come le aree interne possono dunque divenire una reale opportunità per progettare infrastrutture sociali più solide e inclusive anche a partire dal linguaggio attraverso cui il territorio viene descritto e codificato. In primo luogo, decostruendo framework mediatici e politici incoerenti, ma anche innescando fiducia nei processi innovativi di rigenerazione dal basso e svincolando l’abitare dalla condizione di permanenza per legarlo piuttosto ai concetti di cura e di interazione tra corpi e specie abitanti (Barbera et al., 2020).The pandemic context has triggered a different narrative in Italy compared to the usual one linked to the image of inland areas. No longer understood only as problems or spaces of lack, the inland areas have become opportunities for a new approach to sustainable development, capable of overcoming the socio-territorial polarisation between urban centres and peripheral realities (Fenu, 2020). However, the return to the countryside, fuelled by generic proposals on the immediate and indistinct repopulation of Europe's rural areas and by an idealised narrative that contrasts the amenity of bucolic life with the chaos of the city, as well as nostalgia for the past with urban modernity, appears simplistic. In fact, contemporary crises clearly show - the recent Pandemic is only the latest example - the socio-ecological relations that trigger them, making it possible to recognise the structural, complex and epochal character of the phenomena, beyond interpretations that frame them as circumstantial and provide inadequate answers (Moralli, Allegrini, 2020). These relations, by shifting from the global to the local, make it possible to frame local experiments as the only possible solutions against global and generic ones. More generally, they open up spaces for a re-signification of the imaginary (Carmagnola, Matera, 2008), and in particular for a reflection on the anthropocentrism of the Anthropocene itself; offering the possibility of reinserting human action within a chain of agency involving multiple and heterogeneous species, both human and non-human (Latour, 2020). Starting from a theoretical introduction on imaginary, inland areas and new narrative practices, the paper will then present some concrete examples of grassroots territorial design that took place within the IT.A.CÀ Festival of Responsible Tourism, capable of providing alternative symbolic and communicative meanings on the Italian 'marginal' and 'inland' landscapes. These examples will show how inland areas can thus become a real opportunity to design more solid and inclusive social infrastructures also starting from the language through which the territory is described and codified. First of all, by deconstructing incoherent media and political frameworks, but also by triggering trust in innovative regeneration processes from below and releasing living from the condition of permanence in order to link it rather to the concepts of care and interaction between bodies and inhabitant species (Barbera et al., 2020)
Looking for Experiences in the Inland Areas: Walking in the Bolognese Apennines
No full textIl contributo parte dal punto 2 del Manifesto di I.Ta.Cà. sul “Turista, cittadino (con)temporaneo” e si propone di approfondire la crescita del “turismo esperienziale”: la ricerca quindi di un’esperienza unica e autentica nella vacanza, l’importanza basilare delle relazioni umane e della possibilità di esperienze multisensoriali (coinvolgendo quindi vista, udito, tatto, olfatto e gusto), la conoscenza diretta e partecipata ad elementi dell’identità locale. Questo nuovo scenario chiama in causa tanti territori che oggi possono entrare nel mercato turistico avvalendosi delle infinite possibilità offerte dalla rete e dai media, ancor più in questo periodo di pandemia e ancor più per le Aree Interne italiane. Il contributo approfondisce quindi il settore dei cammini nell’Appennino Bolognese avvalendosi, oltre che di una ricerca bibliografica e sitografica, di dieci interviste a camminatori, guide, rappresentanti delle istituzioni ed esperti del settore. Emergono dei progressi importanti negli ultimi anni grazie anche al ruolo di I.Ta.Cà., sia come numero di camminatori sia come sviluppo delle reti pubblico-private che li accolgono, ma anche margini di miglioramento nel monitorare il fenomeno e nel rafforzare le interazioni tra turisti e attori locali durante e dopo il viaggio.The contribution starts from point 2 of the I.Ta.Cà.’s manifesto about the Tourist as a (con) temporary citizen, and it focus on the growth of “experiential tourism”: in other words, the search for a unique and authentic experience in the holiday, the basic importance of human relations and the possibility of multisensory experiences (involving sight, hearing, touch, smell and taste), as well the direct and participant knowledge of local identity. This new scenario calls into question many regions that can enter the tourism market by making use of the infinite possibilities offered by the network and the media, even more important in this pandemic period and for the Italian marginal areas (Aree Interne). This contribution explores the walking sector in the Bolognese Apennines using, in addition to a bibliographic and website search, ten interviews with walkers, guides, members of local institutions and experts in this sector. An important progress has emerged in recent years thanks also to the role of I.Ta.Cà., both in walkers’ flows and in the development of public-private networks to manage them, but also critical issues in monitoring the phenomenon and in strengthening interactions between tourists and local actors during and after the trip
Practices of Community and Place Narratives for IT.A.CÀ Salento 2021. The Case #39 of A.Lib.I. Teatro
No full textThe paper intends to problematize the relationship between community narrative practices and territorial identities, investigating the capacity of the former to influence the social perception of places and their development. Translating this relationship of influence into a valorisation practice means understanding that the ability to know how to read a story in places makes a difference among stakeholders today, as it determines a culturally sustainable development plan, through the use of practices that steer the direction of cultural and economic growth of a territory and that at the same time determine the possibility for local communities to re-appropriate a common narrative-cultural matrix. Within the framework of these considerations, there are some particular projects conceived and realised within the framework of the I.ta.cà. Responsible Tourism Festival, which since 2008 has intercepted and made its own the desire to propose sustainable travel models attentive to the involvement of communities and the sustainable development of territories. This is particularly the case of the stage of I.ta.cà. Salento 2021, which saw the realisation of a rich and complex dramatised itinerary among the Salento localities of Marina Serra, Tiggiano, Lucugnano, Tricase, Tricase Porto, Biotopo delle Vallonee, Porto Museo, and Castiglione d'Otranto del Serra Mito. The event also included and offered to the public a performative restitution by the cultural association A.Lib.I. (Artisti Liberi Indipendenti), which has been working in the Salento area since 2013, mostly through theatrical performances and dramatisations aimed at the valorisation and narration of local material and immaterial sediments. In particular, by means of a semi-structured interview with director Gustavo D'Aversa, an attempt was made to investigate the social implications of their work and of the community performance entitled #39 by Walter Prete, which recounts a complex chapter of local history, the story of the local refugee camp (Displaced Persons Camp), active in Tricase during the Second World War, from 1943 to 1948. The performance was entrusted to local people, volunteer and non-professional actors, who told contemporary fellow countrymen about the difficulties that arose in their town with the arrival of the Jewish refugees. A tale from the people of Tricasini for the people of Tricasini, which proposes an experimental way of telling the story of the territory and for this reason stands as an interesting case study for reflecting on the opportunity, through narrative practices, to intercept and satisfy the needs and desires of a community and to attempt to compose a mapping of cultural instances to which to offer answers.The paper intends to problematize the relationship between community narrative practices and territorial identities, investigating the capacity of the former to influence the social perception of places and their development.

Masculinities and Caring Professions. The Case Study of Students Enrolled in University Courses in Educational Disciplines
Get PDFThe article examines the reasons behind young men’s choice to enrol in career-qualifying programmes for care-related professions (such as BA in Primary Education, Early Years Practitioner, Social pedagogy Practitioner) – a traditionally feminised area. The research points to three main motivations: (1) a forced choice, to accrue training credits in these courses and then enrol in a Psychology programme; (2) looking forward to the socialisation processes of educators; (3) personal aptitudes and inclinations towards this profession – or because they felt unsuited for other options and found other programmes unappealing, making it a choice by exclusion. The research aimed at understanding how students relate to the widespread male gender models, given that care and education professions require characteristics not positively associated with hegemonic masculinity.
The research shows that the interviewees disapprove of certain traits associated with the hegemonic masculinity model, such as aggressiveness and inability to listen. However, they exhibit little reflexivity about the privileges linked to gender and fail to connect these with factors of oppression, especially when distancing themselves from subordinate or “homosexual” masculinities. This reflexivity, however, emerges among those who, due to their educational choices, have faced social stigmatisation, which compelled them to become more aware of the consequences of perpetuating gender roles and the resulting discrimination.The article examines the reasons behind young men’s choice to enrol in career-qualifying programmes for care-related professions (such as BA in Primary Education, Early Years Practitioner, Social pedagogy Practitioner) – a traditionally feminised area.

Il 'Vocabolario ornitologico napolitano-italiano' (1874) e il 'Vocabolario botanico napolitano' (1887) di Federico Gusumpaur
No full textThe paper analyses two bilingual (Neapolitan-Italian) sectoral repertoires by Federico Gusumpaur: the Vocabolario ornitologico napolitano-italiano (1874) and the Vocabolario botanico napolitano (1887). After some remarks on the author, whose basic biographical data are unknown, I will describe the main characteristics of the two repertoires: the criteria used, the glossing system, the probable sources, and the destination. I will also focus on the differences between the two vocabularies, which consist in the presence of two alphabetical indices (Latin-Neapolitan and Italian-Neapolitan) in the Vocabolario botanico napolitano and the non-merely local destination of this second repertoire.Il contributo si concentra su due repertori settoriali bilingui (napoletano-italiano) redatti da Federico Gusumpaur: il Vocabolario ornitologico napolitano-italiano (1874) e il Vocabolario botanico napolitano (1887). Dopo alcuni cenni sull’autore, del quale non sono noti i dati biografici fondamentali, si presentano le caratteristiche principali dei due repertori: i criteri adottati, il sistema di glossatura, le probabili fonti, la destinazione. Si mettono inoltre a fuoco le differenze tra i due vocabolari, che consistono nella presenza di due indici alfabetici (latino-napoletano e italiano-napoletano) nel Vocabolario botanico napolitano e nella destinazione non solo locale di questo secondo repertorio
Il lessico dell'opera teatrale di Francesco Cerlone (A-F)
No full textThis paper analyzes the dialectal lexicon in the work of Neapolitan playwright Francesco Cerlone, starting from the perusal of the eight volumes published between 1825 and 1829, which collect most of his production. Cerlone does not rank among those authors whose work documents entire sectors of the lexical heritage of a language or dialect; writing off the cuff to meet the demands of actors, impresarios and audiences, Cerlone records spontaneous speech, offering the historian of language a record of the lexicon most recurrent in colloquial usage. Of many words Francesco Cerlone is the only witness, and not infrequently the lexicon is manipulated for the purpose of arousing the audience's hilarity through misrepresentations, deformations or allusions to other lexical domains and related semantic fields. The linguistic analysis and the reconstruction, albeit fragmentary, of the author's biographical events contribute to the rediscovery of an artistic event that deserves attention, since, thanks to the efforts of Cerlone, an admirer and epigone of Goldoni, popular Neapolitan theater has experienced a different theatricality, marked by a more rigorous work on the text and staging.Il presente contributo analizza il lessico dialettale dell’opera del commediografo napoletano Francesco Cerlone, partendo dallo spoglio degli otto volumi pubblicati fra il 1825 e il 1829, che raccolgono gran parte della sua produzione. Cerlone non si colloca tra quegli autori che, con la loro opera, documentano interi settori del patrimonio lessicale di una lingua o di un dialetto; scrivendo di getto per soddisfare le richieste di attori, impresari e pubblico, Cerlone registra il parlato spontaneo, offrendo allo storico della lingua una testimonianza del lessico più ricorrente nell’uso colloquiale. Di molte parole Francesco Cerlone è l’unico testimone e non di rado il lessico è manipolato allo scopo di suscitare l’ilarità del pubblico attraverso travisamenti, deformazioni o allusioni ad altri ambiti lessicali e ai relativi campi semantici. L’analisi linguistica e la ricostruzione, sia pure frammentaria, delle vicende biografiche dell’autore contribuiscono a riscoprire una vicenda artistica che merita attenzione, giacché, grazie all’impegno di Cerlone, ammiratore ed epigono di Goldoni, il teatro popolare napoletano ha conosciuto una teatralità diversa, improntata ad un lavoro più rigoroso sul testo e sull’allestimento

Exploring approaches and solutions for urban safety: a focus on the elderly
No full textStarting from the relationship between urban planning and mobility management, TeMA has gradually expanded the view of the covered topics, always remaining in the groove of rigorous scientific in-depth analysis. This section of the Journal, Review Notes, is the expression of continuously updating emerging topics concerning relationships between urban planning, mobility, and environment, through a collection of short scientific papers written by young researchers. The Review Notes are made of five parts. Each section examines a specific aspect of the broader information storage within the main interests of TeMA Journal. In particular, the Urban planning literature review section presents recent books and journals on selected topics and issues within the global scientific panorama. For the third issue of TeMA magazine, volume 17th, this section provides a comprehensive overview of the challenges and solutions related to creating safe and accessible cities for older people. Various scientific sources and practical resources are used to illustrate effective approaches and innovative strategies. The contribution aims to examine these challenges and proposed solutions in the scientific literature, with a special focus on books, journal articles and reports. In particular, the difficulties related to the walkability of urban spaces will be analysed, with a focus on the perception of safety, not only in terms of the prevention of acts of violence, but also with regard to the safety of the physical conditions of streets and roads, as well as the risks arising from traffic
I rapporti commerciali tra Amalfi e Venezia in età medievale
Get PDFThe contribution, built mostly on unpublished material, reviews the economic and commercial relationsthat existed between Amalfi and Venice throughout the centuries of the Middle Ages, starting from theearliest evidence, which dates back to the 9th century. Some of these relations did not take place inItalian waters but in the East (for example in Constantinople or Alexandria), at emporiums frequented bymerchants from both cities. In the centuries of the late Middle Ages, the reciprocal relations change in sign and significance, as the Amalfitans more rarely act on their own while they are mostly hired to performtransport functions on behalf of the court of Naples and Taranto and sometimes for the Venetiansthemselves.Il contributo, costruito per lo più su materiale inedito, passa in rassegna le relazioni di carattere economico e commerciale intercorse tra Amalfi e Venezia lungo tutti i secoli del Medioevo, a partire dalle prime testimonianze, che risalgono al IX secolo. Alcune di queste relazioni non avvengono nelle acque italiane ma in Oriente (per esempio a Costantinopoli o ad Alessandria d’Egitto), presso empori frequentati da mercanti originari di entrambe le città. Nei secoli del basso Medioevo le reciproche relazioni cambiano di segno e significato, perché gli Amalfitani agiscono più raramente in proprio mentre per lo più sono ingaggiati per svolgere funzioni di trasporto per conto della corte di Napoli e di Taranto e talvolta per i Veneziani stessi
