  • GP Turin 2018 Travel Guide
    “Torino is not a place you can leave behind” - Friedrich Nietsche 1 A brief history Torino was founded as a roman settlement, under the name of Augusta Taurinorum (“Taurinus” means bull-like and that was the name given by the romans to the local ancient tribes, because of their height and strength). After having been mostly anonymous through the middle age, it became the capital of the Savoy dukedom in 1563, under duke Emanuele Filiberto of Savoy. The dukedom of Savoy became a kingdom in 1713, and starting from 1848 the Royal family and the government began, through wars and smart political alliances, the process of reunification of Italy (known now as Risorgimento - resurgence). This led Torino to become the first capital of Italy in 1861. During the 20th century the city become a center of excellence for the automotive industry, but after hosting the Winter Olympics in 2006, Torino is seeing its popularity rising again as a worthy touristic destination, thanks to its beautiful baroque city center, its vibrant cultural life and its wine and food traditions. Getting to the City Torino Airport: Torino is served by the Sandro Pertini international airport. Although small, the airport offers multiple daily connections to most of the big European hubs, including Frankfurt, Munich, Madrid, Amsterdam and Paris (be careful if you’re flying through London: there are connections to Gatwick and Stanstedt, not Heathrow). The airport is also served by low-cost company Ryanair, which offers connections to Barcelona, Bruxelles-Charleroi, London Stanstedt, Malta, Ibiza, Valencia and Dublin. The airport is connected to the city center by bus.

  • Waldensian Tour Guide
    1 ii LUX LUCET EN TENEBRIS The words surrounding the lighted candle symbolize Christ’s message in Matthew 5:16, “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your father who is in heaven.” The dark blue background represents the night sky and the spiritual dark- ness of the world. The seven gold stars represent the seven churches mentioned in the book of Revelation and suggest the apostolic origin of the Waldensian church. One oak tree branch and one laurel tree branch are tied together with a light blue ribbon to symbolize strength, hope, and the glory of God. The laurel wreath is “The Church Triumphant.” iii Fifth Edition: Copyright © 2017 Original Content: Kathleen M.

March 8, 2016 Abstract This paper estimates the causal relationship between the supply of art and tourist flows. To this aim we use aggregate bilateral data on tourist flows and on museums in the twenty Italian regions. To solve the potential endogeneity of the supply of museums we use three different empirical strategies: we control for bilateral macro-area dummies, we compute the degree of selection on unobservables relative to observables which would be necessary to drive the result to zero and, finally, we adopt a 2SLS approach that uses a measure of historical patronage, the number of noble families, as an instrument for the number of museums. We always find strong evidence of a causal relationship between museums and tourist flows. Keywords: Demand for the art, museums, noble families, cultural tourism, causality.

  • Degree in Architecture Honors Theses
    POLYTECHNIC OF TORINO FACULTY OF ARCHITECTURE Degree in Architecture Honors theses The village of Rivoli in modern and contemporary times by Maria Beatrice Calandri Tutor: Vera Comoli Co-tutor: Rocco Curto The historical analysis of the urban changes of the city of Rivoli during the government years of Vittorio Amedeo II entailed a complex research study that I pursued at the Historical Archives and Library of the town, at the Record Office, at different Libraries in Turin and at the Library of the Architecture Faculty. I mainly tried to understand how the vicissitudes of the royal family, the building of a new main road to France and, finally, the grandiose transformations to the structure of the Rivoli castle could have biased the growth of the city. In order to clarify this point my analysis followed two directions: on the one hand I concentrated on every study and publication concerning the history of Rivoli, Piedmont and the Savoias; on the other hand, I examined all the old documents that could have been pertinent to the city itself. At the Historical Archives of the city of Rivoli the research focused on the analysis of the most important administrative acts, especially those regarding the municipal administration, public properties, administration of public finances and works (such as the building of new roads), private properties, government, administration of justice, "National Guard", public services, management of agriculture, industry and commerce, public security, charitable institutions, the police and sanitary inspectors. At the Record Office of Turin I compared different ancient cartographies of the city of Rivoli, especially the surveys made between the end of the 18th century and the 19th century (picture 1).
