    The General Assembly of the United Nations declared 2014 the International Year of Crystallography, after 100 years from the awarding of the first Nobel Prize for the discovery of X-ray diffraction by crystals. On this occasion, the Department of Chemical and Geological Sciences of Modena and Reggio Emilia University (Italy) and its Museum “Gemma 1786”, organized an exhibition named Cristalli ai raggi X (Modena, 24 Jan.-29 Mar. 2015). The initiative involved the cooperation of many public and private partners and the active participation of twenty schools of different types and levels. An innovative aspect was the planned participation of high-school students to the fifty collateral events organized during the exhibition. The main purpose of Cristalli ai raggi X was to introduce non-specialists to the world of crystals and their properties, and to show how crystallography plays a role in the development of scientific disciplines. The display ended with the appreciation of 9,000 visitors and a hundred of guided tours for regional and extra-regional schools. The activity developed by the Manini Middle School of Vezzano sul Crostolo (Reggio Emilia province) involved 27 students of 13th-year-old. During an exhibition event opened to the public, they presented a study on the features of gypsum and the extraction history of the land where they come from and where, in the past, the gypsum was an important economic resource

    Uno scavo ad uso civile di circa 10 m di profondità realizzato nei pressi del centro storico di Terni ha portato alla luce una potente successione sedimentaria di ambiente fluviale e fluvio-lacustre depostasi durante le prime fasi dell’Olocene, che ha permesso di raccogliere nuove informazioni sull’evoluzione geologico-ambientale recente di questa porzione del territorio di Terni, oggi urbanizzata. Molluschi ed ostracodi sono stati analizzati

    La complessità del territorio nazionale ed il ricco patrimonio ambientale che lo caratterizza fanno dell'Italia uno dei paesi in cui la dimensione areale è inversamente proporzionale alla ricchezza e alla frequenza di luoghi e oggetti di rilevanza documentale globale. Ciò vale soprattutto per il patrimonio ambientale, verso il quale si sta registrando un interesse sempre più crescente, sia in ambiti scientifici, che attraverso iniziative legislative di censimento, protezione e valorizzazione (Bertacchini et alii, 1999).In quest'ottica si inserisce un progetto in collaborazione tra il Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra dell'Università degli Studi di Modena e Reggio Emilia e la Regione Emilia Romagna - Servizio Paesaggio, Parchi e Patrimonio naturale - responsabile Sandra Piacente, volto, oltre che al censimento e la valutazione dei più importanti siti di interesse geologico, alla realizzazione di itinerari turistico-culturali.I risultati ottenuti diventano così anche occasione di protezione e di valorizzazione di questo particolare patrimonio ambientale, trasformato da "oggetto geologico" in "bene culturale", fruibile e godibile da tutti

    In Italy, as in most countries, the geological component of the landscape has not yet been given its real value as a cultural asset. It is therefore necessary to find new ways and strategies to increase the awareness and sensitivity not only of the scientific world and institutions but also of society in general.From this viewpoint, a project has been activated with the collaboration of the Department of Earth Sciences of Modena and Reggio Emilia University and the Emilia-Romagna Region – Landscape, Parks and Natural Heritage Service. The aim of this project is to census and rate the most important sites of geological interest and develop cultural-tourist itineraries and educational routes.Such geological itineraries have a double aim: to promote the knowledge of Earth Sciences, so little widespread among media or public opinion; to offer new professional perspectives to young un-or unemployed geologists

    Geological heritage: a new opportunity for cultural and tourist development. The "Devil's Stones" between Hamlets and Castles of the Emilia Apennines (Italy). The complexity of the national territory and the variety of environmental heritage make Italy one of the countries where the areal extension is inversely proportional to the richness and frequency of places and objects of considerable cultural relevance. This is particularly true for environmental heritage, which is enjoying an ever increasing interest from the viewpoint both of scientific interest and of legislation regarding census, protection and improvement activities. Within this framework, a co-operation project between the Department of Earth Sciences of Modena and Reggio Emilia University and the Landscape, Park and Nature Conservancy Service of the Emilia-Romagna Region has been activated. The aim of this project is the classification and assessment of the most important geological sites and the implementation of educational routes and cultural tourist itineraries. The results expected could therefore be an opportunity for stimulating territorial upgrading by means of interventions on abandoned or secondary areas and by promoting new models of development

    Research previously carried out for the Landscape, Park and Natural Heritage Service of the Emilia-Romagna Region, gave us the idea of selecting those aspects of the geological landscape which, more than others, should be appreciated both for their intrinsic and contextual meaning and also for the “symbolic” value which they have gained through time. Thus, a project concerning a particular geological-literary itinerary was developed. This itinerary was developed by considering how the morphological features of the landscape in Emilia-Romagna have inspired poetry and culture. From Pascoli to Panzini, from Bacchelli to Bertolucci, Guareschi, Bassani, Delfini, Zavattini, Pederiali, Tondelli and many others, the places of 20th century poetry in Emilia-Romagna go from the windy sand dunes of the Romagna coast to the misty atmospheres of the Po Plain countryside, the barren silvery badlands of the Apennines, the dark humps of the mountains, the fantastic woods of the lowlands as far as the moody horizons of the “province—non-province”, which runs along the Via Emilia between the River Po and the Apennine ridges
