Taranto. Città dei tre mari
No full textThe beauty of the morphological structure of this territory, suspended between two seas, can regenerate Taranto.
The two “breasts” of the mar Piccolo determine an unexpected lagoon landscape which is counterpointed by the orderly and silent irrigated plot of the agricultural landscape. Natural waterways and artificial canalizations retrace, as in the case of the "big leaf", located to the west of the built city, the orographic microtopography, otherwise invisible.
Starting from its foundation and up to the construction of the nineteenth-century city, the relationship with the two seas was the distinctive feature of the city until the establishment of military areas and the advent of large-scale industry that built barriers along the coasts.
The same can be said about the growth by addition of homogeneous urban parts of social housing from the 1950s to the 1980s which followed logics established by models born elsewhere.
Starting from these considerations, the theme "From social housing to social Habitat" was developed to establish dialogic relationships between the context and the three social housing districts Taburi, Salinella and Paolo VI. The aim of the project proposal is the re-foundation of the three districts starting from the creation of their necessary relationship with the sea. The method was to reinterpret the specific genetic codes, marked by the evolution of public building regulations, in relation to three new infrastructural interventions aimed at configuring the new public spaces of Taranto on the sea: a monumental waterfront above the railway for Tamburi; the hydraulic recovery of the "big leaf" for Salinella; a new equipped axis between Paolo VI and the Tosi shipyards on the sea.
Paraphrasing the celebrated written by Anna Maria Ortese, The sea will bathe Taranto

No full textIl campione faunistico del Castello Aragonese di Taranto proviene dalla cosiddetta galleria nord, indagata durante le campagne di scavo protrattesi tra il 2004 e il 2006. I materiali ceramici associati ai resti ossei si inquadrano cronologicamente tra il XVI e il XVII secolo. Il record osteologico presenta un ottimo stato di conservazione, tale da consentire la determinazione di una buona parte del materiale dal punto di vista sistematico e anatomico e fornire un quadro sufficientemente chiaro di quale fosse l’approvvigionamento alimentare del castello

The coastal springs along the Taranto Gulf (South Italy)
No full textThe Mar Piccolo (literally “narrow sea”), a sea internal basin which is part of the Taranto Gulf, located along the Ionian coast in southern Italy (Apulia region), represents both a peculiar and sensitive environmental area and a national environmental and social emergency due to the level of sea water pollution due to the pollutants coming from the close industrial area of Taranto.
The area, located between the southern part of the Murgia plateau and the Ionian sea, is geologically characterized by a sequence of Mesozoic limestone (the Apulian carbonate platform) constituting the foreland of the southern Apennines chain. The Mesozoic sequence is intensely fissured and karstified, and forms an important groundwater reservoir.
The aquifer occurring in the carbonate sequence of the Murgia plateau feeds numerous coastal springs and constitute the main local source of pure fresh groundwater.
Galeso, Battentieri and Riso are the main subaerial springs located along the coast of Mar Piccolo, not far from the town of Taranto. This area is also characterized by several submarine springs, locally called “Citri”.
Submarine freshwater discharge plays an important, though not well quantified, role in the hydrogeological equilibrium of the system, but also the source of the spreading of many pollutants in the Mar Piccolo area due to the close presence of one of the largest European steel mill together a number of hazardous industrial activities of other types.
The paper describes the efforts and the preliminary results to define a detailed conceptualisation of the aquifer as main support to characterise the hydrological balance of the internal sea and the quality of sea water and the effect on of the ecological equilibrium of the coastal environment.PublishedHusum (Germany)6A.

La Regia Marina Italiana e la gestione dell’Arsenale Militare Marittimo di Taranto (1889-1918)
No full textLa costruzione dell’Arsenale ha innescato un percorso di graduale trasformazione urbanistica, dando avvio ad un processo di industrializzazione legato alla cantieristica navale. Questo contributo intende ricostruire il ruolo e le funzioni di tale infrastruttura dal momento in cui ha avviato la propria attività, per giungere fino alla fine della Prima guerra mondiale. Particolare attenzione sarà rivolta al processo di formazione dei costi relativi alle lavorazioni che in esso si svolgevano e alle conseguenze organizzative del processo di riforma della gestione degli arsenali avvenuto nei primi anni del Novecento. Infine, il contributo si soffermerà sugli effetti generati dall’Arsenale militare marittimo di Taranto sull’occupazione e sull’economia della città.The construction of the Arsenal has triggered a path of gradual urban transformation, starting a process of industrialization linked to shipbuilding. This contribution aims to reconstruct the role and functions of this infrastructure from the moment it started its activity, up to the end of the First World War. Particular attention will be paid to the process of formation of costs and to the organizational consequences of a reform process of the management of the arsenals that took place in the early twentieth century. Finally, the contribution will focus on the effects generated by the Maritime Military Arsenal of Taranto on employment and the economy of the city

Thomas More e la sua Utopia. Studi e prospettive, a cura di F. Ghia e F. Meroi, Olschki, 2018
No full textUna lettura dell'opera moreana che vada oltre il suo aspetto eminentemente politico, può gettare luce sulle sulle sue "fonti" e sul loro utilizzo. In quest'ambito particolare rilievo acquista sia il Policraticus sia i Travels of Sir John Mandeville per il loro insistere sul valore della povertà dei Brachmani come limite all'espansione di Alessandro, sia l'accoglimento della pluralità delle religioni come qualcosa che non segnala semplicemente un loro difett
