    Questioni di impronte letterarie: fra turismo e processi di patrimonializzazione territoriali

    No full text
    Integrato nel filone di ricerca scientifica della geografia della letteratura, il turismo letterario si declina in diverse modalità di organizzazione e valorizzazione della risorsa letteraria: circuiti letterari, caffè letterari, parchi letterari, passeggiate/sentieri letterarie, che ripercorrono itinerari reali o immaginari e si ispirano agli scrittori e alle loro produzioni letterarie. L’insieme di questi processi locali sono stati riassunti con l’espressione mise en littérature. L’obiettivo di questo contributo è quello di mostrare come tali offerte di turismo culturale/letterario siano ancorate a specifici territori i cui abitanti hanno saputo o hanno la volontà di valorizzare patrimoni radicati poco conosciuti o non considerati come tali. L’argomentazione scientifica verrà accompagnata da alcuni casi di studio di progetti già realizzati o in corso di realizzazione in Italia ed all’estero

    Migrations et relations interculturelles: les lieux de l'interculturalité

    No full text
    The present article, whose theoretical foundations are based simultaneously on social geography and the progress in ethno-methodology, strives to study places of exchange and transaction between the indigenous and immigrant populations as well as between diverse immigrant groups within the agglomeration of Lausanne. The interest for such "hybrid places" came about from the idea that immigration in urban centres increasingly favours "cultures of mixity" which represent a chief concern in matters of cohabitation and integration of populations in urban areas. This study deals with the nature, the number, the spatial distribution as well as the conditions of emergence (function, attendance, history) of these "intercuftural places" such as associations, clubs and meeting places of all sorts, and also restaurants and shops, It also deals with how these places are perceived and inhabited by different urban actors, foreigners and natives alike

    Time evolution of liquid drop impact onto solid, dry surfaces

    No full text
    The normal impact of liquid drops onto solid, dry surfaces has been studied experimentally, using high-resolution digital photography. A large number of parameters were varied in a systematic manner. The focus of this paper is the quantitative determination of the influence of these parameters on the drop spreading upon impact and on the phenomenological description of the outcomes. Dimensional similarity of the spreading can only be achieved for the very early stage of the impact process. At later stages, the number of influencing factors increases, generally precluding any universal correlation. Particular emphasis is placed on the influence of the wettability and the surface roughness on spreading.</p
