It represents a complex and articulate phenomenon, in which the reasons and proposals related to the devotional and personal sphere are combined with a series of innovative opportunities that help reach a depth knowledge of a territory. The religious motive often means that pilgrims travel along specific routes to visit a number of shrines or even to complete lengthy itineraries.

  • Il Castello Di Sarmato È Un Ampio Complesso Fortificato Sito Nel Paese Di Sarmato, in Provincia Di Piacenza
    Il Castello di Sarmato è un ampio complesso fortificato sito nel paese di Sarmato, in provincia di Piacenza. Posto nella bassa val Tidone, non lontano sia dal Tidone che dal Po nella pianura Padana. Forse fondato dai barbari Sarmati, sicuramente presidio Longobardo il castello di Sarmato venne eretto verso l'anno mille. Posto nei pressi dell'incrocio di due percorsi: la via Emilia pavese e la via Francigena; era un importante avamposto, con Castel San Giovanni e Borgonovo Val Tidone, nella funzione strategica di difesa dei territori piacentini (guelfi) dai pavesi (ghibellini). La prima data certa è il 1216 quando qui si radunarono le milizie milanesi e piacentine che conquistarono le fortificazioni ghibelline sulle alture nei pressi di Rovescala. Molti furono, in quei secoli turbolenti i passaggi di mano: dai Pallastrelli agli Arcelli, dai Seccamelica agli Scotti, fino ai conti Zanardi Landi di Veano, attuali proprietari che hanno iniziato un lavoro di graduale recupero e valorizzazione. Il complesso interamente edificato in laterizio è circondato da mura, ancora ben evidenti anche se recano in parte i segni del tempo, che erano contornate da un fossato. Racchiudono un piccolo borgo di pianta rettangolare, che si articola in due strade perpendicolari, con abitazioni, l'oratorio di San Carlo Borromeo, il castello, la rocchetta, cui si accedeva tramite ponte levatoio, di cui si vedono ancora chiaramente i cardini. Tre sono i contrafforti di accesso al borgo protetti da costruzioni difensive. L'ingresso principale è a sud, protetto da un rivellino merlato con due archi, uno per il passaggio pedonale e l'altro, a sesto acuto, per quello carrabile che erano dotati di ponte levatoio.

  • LSRL 2009 Revised Version
    Cardinaletti and Repetti 1 Preverbal Vowels in Wh-Questions and Declarative Sentences in Northern Italian Piacentine Dialects1 Anna Cardinaletti, Università Ca’ Foscari Venezia, & Lori Repetti, SUNY Stony Brook In this paper, we discuss preverbal vocalic segments in interrogative and declarative sentences. Their distribution depends on the type of subject (1sg, 1pl, 2pl vs 2sg, 3sg, 3pl), the presence of other preverbal clitics, and the verb tense (present vs present perfect). We show that two different types of preverbal vocalic segments should be differentiated: an ‘interrogative vowel’ (in main wh-questions) and a ‘subject field vowel’ (in embedded wh- questions and in declarative sentences). The two vowels realize different heads of the clausal skeleton (in the CP and the IP layer, respectively), can be found in one and the same dialect, and can co-occur in one and the same clause. Both types of vowels appear to be incompatible with other preverbal clitics in some contexts, and the presence/absence of the preverbal vowel in sentences with auxiliaries is predictable based on the quality of the auxiliary-initial segment (consonant vs vowel). 1 Introduction 1 We would like to thank the audience at the LSRL and two reviewers of this volume for their helpful comments, and our Piacentine informants for their time and patience. We use the following abbreviations: sg singular, pl plural, mas masculine, fem feminine, ACC accusative, DAT dative, LOC locative, NEG negative, REFLEX reflexive, SCL subject clitic, Z = Zörner (1989), and M = Mandelli (1995). Cardinaletti and Repetti 2 In the Emilian dialect of Gazzoli (province of Piacenza), the preverbal vowel [ə] has a very complicated distribution depending on, among other things, the type of sentence (declarative vs interrogative), the subject (1sg, 1pl, 2pl vs 2sg, 3sg, 3pl), the presence of other preverbal clitics, and the verb tense (present vs present perfect).
