Over 600 experts from around the world gathered at the Giorgio Cini Foundation on the island of San Giorgio in Venice, Italy, to discuss the evolution of the World Heritage Convention and consider its role for the future. In addition, some 400 experts gathered immediately prior to the Congress at nine associated workshops in different Italian cities to reflect on the major themes of the Congress. The nine workshops were: • The Legal Tools for World Heritage Conservation, Siena • Cultural Landscapes: the Challenges of Conservation, Ferrara • Towards Innovative Partnerships for World Heritage, Venice • Partnerships for World Heritage Cities, Urbino-Pesaro • Monitoring World Heritage, Vicenza • Partnerships to Conserve Nature and Biodiversity, Trieste • World Heritage University Training, Feltre • World Heritage Site Management, Padua • Mobilizing Youth for World Heritage, Treviso This publication aims to reflect the discussions and debates around the specific themes as they were discussed over the two days of the workshop. The summary reports of each workshop are also available in the Congress proceedings publication. Francesco Bandarin Director UNESCO World Heritage Centre 3 Ferrara 7 12/01/04 17:34 Page 4 Ferrara 7 12/01/04 17:34 Page 5 Prelude Cultural Landscapes became one of the hot topics during the past years of World Heritage work and beyond. They represent the combined works of man and nature. Moreover they are the places of peoples’ livelihoods, identities and belief systems all over the world. The Ferrara workshop Cultural Landscapes : the Challenges of Conservation brought all those themes together and much more. Experts from around the world had the opportunity to talk about key cultural landscape issues likely to direct overall strategies for the next ten years. They not only celebrated the con- cept, but also reviewed the implementation and the everyday management challenges of these complex sites. Cultural landscapes have been rendered more biologically diverse through human intervention over centuries. They are the foundations of food production systems and living gene banks for the food crops of tomorrow. These areas are home to local populations and indigenous groups, and are rich in cultural diversity and intangible values, to be conserved as a whole for a sustainable future. The workshop was organized jointly by the City and the Province of Ferrara, in a collaborative effort of the University of Ferrara and the UNESCO World Heritage Centre to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage. The strong commit- ment of the authorities to cultural landscape conservation can be seen with the establishment of the Ferrara Centre for Cultural Landscapes at the occasion of the workshop. This publication brings together the papers and discussions of the workshop. The conclusions and the summary report are presented in English and French. We hope these will be well received by a broad audi- ence and will provide a sound basis for future actions by stakeholders in all regions on earth.

  • The Cultural Landscape Past of the Eastern Mediterranean: the Border Lord’S Gardens and the Common Landscape Tradition of the Arabic and Byzantine Culture

    The Cultural Landscape Past of the Eastern Mediterranean: the Border Lord’S Gardens and the Common Landscape Tradition of the Arabic and Byzantine Culture

    land Article The Cultural Landscape Past of the Eastern Mediterranean: The Border Lord’s Gardens and the Common Landscape Tradition of the Arabic and Byzantine Culture Konstantinos Moraitis School of Architecture, National Technical University of Athens (NTUA), 8A Hadjikosta Str., 11521 Athens, Greece; [email protected]; Tel.: +30-210-6434101 Received: 5 January 2018; Accepted: 21 February 2018; Published: 26 February 2018 Abstract: An evaluation of landscape tradition, in Near and Middle East area, could emphasize a profound past of agricultural experience, as well as of landscape and garden art. In reference to this common past, Byzantine and Arabic landscape and garden art paradigms appear to be geographically and culturally correlated, as proved by a Byzantine 12th century folksong, presenting the construction of a villa, with its surrounding gardens and landscape formations, in the territory of Euphrates River. This song refers to Vasilios Digenes Akritas or ‘Border Lord’, a legendary hero of mixed Byzantine-Greek and Arab blood; ‘Digenes’ meaning a person of dual genes, both of Byzantine and Arabic origin, and ‘Akritas’ an inhabitant of the borderline. At the end of the narration of the song, contemporary reader feels skeptical. Was modern landscape and garden art born in the European continent or was it transferred to Western world through an eastern originated lineage of Byzantine and Arabic provenance? Keywords: Arabic landscape and garden art; Byzantine landscape and garden art; cultural sustainability; political sustainability; Twain-born Border Lord 1. Introductory References: The Western Interest for Landscape and Its Eastern Precedents We ought to remark in advance that the present article is written by a professional design practitioner who believes, however, that space formative practices are not of mere technological importance.

    A Giant Hummingbird from Paramo De Chingaza, Colombia.-On 10 October 1981, During an Ornithological Survey at 3250 M Elev

    GENERAL NOTES 661 E. nigrivestis is timed to coincide with flowering of P. huigrensis (and other plants) which bloom seasonally at lower elevations. The general ecology of E. nigrivestis is similar to that recorded for the closely related species, the Glowing Puffleg (E. vextitus)(Snow and Snow 1980). Snow and Snow (1980) observed E. vestitus feeding principally at plants of similar general morphology (straight tubular corollas 10-20 mm in length) in similar taxonomic groups (Cnvenclishia; Ericaceae more often than Palicourea; Rubiaceae for E. vestitus). Territoriality in E. vestitus was pronounced while this was only suggested in the male E. nigrivestis we observed, perhaps a seasonal effect. Finally E. vestitus, like E. nigrivestis, did not occur in tall forested habitats at similar elevations (Snow and Snow [1980] study at 2400-2500 m). The evidence presented here suggests that the greatly restricted range of E. nigrivestis is not due to dietary specializations. Male nectar sources are from a broad spectrum of plants, and the principal food plant of both sexes, P. huigrensis, is a widespread Andean species. Nesting requirements of E. nigrivestis may still be threatened with extinction through habitat destruction, especially if the species requires specific habitats of natural vegetation at certain times of year, such as that found on nude ridge crests. The vegetation on nudes in particular is rapidly disappearing because nudes provide flat ground for cultivation in otherwise pre- cipitous terrain. In light of its restricted range and the threat of habitat destruction resulting from such close proximity to a major urban center, Quito, we consider E.

    Cultural Heritage (Patrimony): an Introduction

    Buckland: Cultural Heritage (Patrimony): An Introduction. Zadar, 2013. 1 Cultural Heritage (Patrimony): An Introduction. Preprint of: Cultural Heritage (Patrimony): An Introduction, pp 11-25 in: Records, Archives and Memory: Selected Papers from the Conference and School on Records, Archives and Memory Studies, University of Zadar, Croatia, May 2013. Ed. by Mirna Willer, Anne J. Gilliland and Marijana Tomić. Zadar: University of Zadar, 2015. ISBN 978-953-331-080-0. Published version may differ slightly. Michael Buckland School of Information, University of California, Berkeley, CA 94720, USA Abstract Cultural heritage is important because it strongly influences our sense of identity, our loyalties, and our behavior. Memory institutions (archives, libraries, museums, schools, and historic sites) have a responsibility for preserving and interpreting the cultural record, so there are practical reasons to study cultural heritage. Attention to cultural heritage leads to wider awareness of the complexity and cultural bases of archives, libraries, and museums. Specialized terms are explained. The role of time is discussed and the past, history, and heritage are distinguished. Cultural heritage has some specialized legal and economic consequences and is deeply associated with much of the conflict and destruction in the world. Keywords Cultural heritage, Cultural policies, identity, Memory institutions, Collective memory Those who work in memory institutions (notably archives, libraries, museums, and historic sites) concern themselves with three distinct fields of study within the general theme of cultural heritage: 1. Culture: Examination of cultures and cultural heritages; 2. Techniques: The preservation, management, organization and interpretation of cultural heritage resources; and 3. Institutions: Study of those institutions that preserve, manage, organize, and interpret cultural heritage resources (and, indeed, to some extent define them) and their evolution over time.

Abstract Questo articolo è un risultato parziale di una ricerca riguardante la rappresentazione di superfici complesse in geometria descrittiva. La padronanza e l’abilità nell’uso delle diverse tecniche di rappresentazione, consente di raggiungere risultati che altrimenti non sarebbero perseguibili. La Scuola di Disegno di Ingegneria, dell’Università di Palermo si è da sempre fatta promotrice della scienza della rappresentazione attraverso la sperimentazione di tecniche semplificative ed innovative della geometria descrittiva applicata all’architettura e all’ingegneria. In particolar modo, in questo lavoro, si riporta lo studio di una superficie complessa quale è l’elicoide che trova larga applicazione nell’architettura. L’elicoide è qui trattata nella rappresentazione dell’assonometria ortogonale. Il metodo proposto è basato fondamentalmente sull’applicazione indispensabile ed imprescindibile dell’omologia. Alcuni passi, qui dati per scontato, trovano riscontro nei riferimenti bibliografici. This paper presents the issue of a long research on the representation of the complex surface in descriptive geometry. The ability to use the different techniques of representation aims to achieve results that you didn’t image before. In Palermo University, at the Engineering School, the researcher involved the study on the simplify of the so elaborated way to represent the geometry and its applications in architecture buildings and engineering implants. There is just report below the application methods to represent one of the most used surfaces in the practice of buildings.

The Relationship Between Cultural Heritage Tourism and Historic Crafting & Textile Communities Abstract The tourism industry continues to grow exponentially each year as many First and developing nations utilize its many subsets to generate commerce. Of the many types of tourism, arguably all countries employ heritage tourism as a method to protect their varying forms of cultural heritage , to establish national identities and grow their economies. As it is understood, to create a national identity a group of people will first identify what they consider to be the culturally significant eaturf es of their society that embodies their heritage. Heritage is a legacy that will be passed onto future generations that encompasses customs, expressions artifacts structures etc. This thesis will focus on the production of crafts and textiles as material culture for heritage tourism markets as a segment of cultural heritage. It will examine how the production of material culture is affected when it intersects with large scale heritage tourism.
