Il viaggio e i mari degli Argonauti
Il volume tratta del viaggio di ritorno degli Argonauti attraverso il Danubio, descritto nella maniera più dettagliata nelle Argonautiche di Apollonio Rodio, ma seguito anche da altri autori greci e latini. In particolare, si propone una ricostruzione delle rotte marittime e terrestri sulla base dell'evoluzione delle conoscenze geografiche in età ellenistica e romana

Ancient history for tourism development. Building content for meaningful travel itineraries
When it comes to cultural tourism studies, sustainability, and environmental protection are often addressed in the framework of tourist flows management accessing cultural attractions. However, studies emphasizing the need to integrate this analytical dimension into the planning phase of tourist experiences are less common. The European project "rurAllure," aiming at the promotion of rural museums and heritage sites in the vicinity of European pilgrimage routes, provides an opportunity to consider the development of slow tourism itineraries that allow hikers and pilgrims not only to cross regions but also to stay overnights along the route and discover the richness of the surrounding territories. In this approach, the concept of sustainability goes beyond merely environmental protection. It also includes the social dimension of mutual exchanges with residents and the sustainability side of cultural sites visiting practices that ensure a more balanced distribution of the economic impact of tourist flows. After introducing the conceptual approach to the relationship between tourism, pilgrimage, and ancient history from a sustainable practices perspective, the paper presents a practical example of how to plan a cycling tourism experience starting from the official itinerary of the Via Romea Germanica in the Po Delta River area
Cantieri d' alta quota ed esposizione a UV
The ultraviolet radiation (UV) exposure is a risk factor for outdoor workers. The aim of this study was to estimate the UV exposure in workers of the construction industry, employed in work at high altitude.
It was measured the UV environment in four construction industries during the period February - August 2008 and in the hours of greatest exposure (11-15 hours) and were detected at the same climatic parameters (temperature, humidity, pressure) considered influential on the exposure and is was considered also local UV index.
The results showed irradiance values ranging between 0.020 and 0.195 W/m2 and exposure between 72 and 702 J/m2/h and between 576 and 5616 J/m2/8 hours. The UV exposure was influenced by meterological and climatic conditions and was greater in conditions of clear skies and high temperatures and therefore in the summery months when the activities are carried out mostly. The study showed a total exposure variables not comparable with the exposure limits, that also relate only to acute effects. The data suggest the opportunity to manage risk with protections and appropriate behaviors to specific exposure, considering the UV index, with which the data were correlated
