Mediterranean Sea PROGRAM NARRATIVE Few places in the world offer a travel experience as culturally diverse as the central Mediterranean. Set at the crossroads of East and West, this strategic region has been settled by a steady succession of civilizations – from the Phoenicians, Greeks, Romans, and Byzantines to the Normans, Saracens and Venetians. Each group left its own distinct mark on the region, imbuing these lands with a rich and varied cultural and artistic her- itage. Our journey begins in Sicily’s Palermo, founded by the Phoenicians in 827 BC. Under the Normans, this stunning city became one of Europe’s greatest centers. In Taormina, perched high above the sea, we will see the magnificent Greek Theater, renowned for its perfect acoustics and breath- taking views of the sea and Mt. Etna. Sailing along the coast of Calabria, we will call at Crotone, the ancient city of Croton, where, in the 6th century BC, Pythagoras set up his school of philosophy. Entering the Adriatic Sea, we will make a landing at the port town of Puglia’sMonopoli to visit the village of Alberobello, famed for its trulli, remarkable white-washed dwellings. Crossing the Adriatic, the ship will navigate Montenegro’s Bay of Kotor, a scenic waterway, to call atKotor, a beautiful medieval walled town, built against a towering mountain. Continue along Croatia’s Dalmatian coast to Dubrovnik, one of Europe’s best preserved medieval cities, and Split, which is dominated by the incredible Place of Diocletian. Cruising among the Croatian islands, we reach Istria, a large peninsula that projects into the Adriatic, to call at the picture-perfecttown of Rovinj, where we will have time to explore the town and also visit nearby Porec, an ancient town of grand stone houses, and home to the Basilica of Euphrasius, a 6th-century Byzantine basilica that contains exquisite mosaics. Across from Istria in the northern Adriatic is Venice, where the Elysium will enter the Venetian Lagoon and navigate the San Marco Canal, ending the voyage in the fabled “Queen of the Adriatic.” Uncovering the many layers of civilization that have shaped the central Mediterranean makes for one of the most fascinating and rewarding travel experiences in this ancient sea.

  • Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism
    Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert Robert Fredona Working Paper 18-021 Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert Harvard Business School Robert Fredona Harvard Business School Working Paper 18-021 Copyright © 2017 by Sophus A. Reinert and Robert Fredona Working papers are in draft form. This working paper is distributed for purposes of comment and discussion only. It may not be reproduced without permission of the copyright holder. Copies of working papers are available from the author. Merchants and the Origins of Capitalism Sophus A. Reinert and Robert Fredona ABSTRACT: N.S.B. Gras, the father of Business History in the United States, argued that the era of mercantile capitalism was defined by the figure of the “sedentary merchant,” who managed his business from home, using correspondence and intermediaries, in contrast to the earlier “traveling merchant,” who accompanied his own goods to trade fairs. Taking this concept as its point of departure, this essay focuses on the predominantly Italian merchants who controlled the long‐distance East‐West trade of the Mediterranean during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. Until the opening of the Atlantic trade, the Mediterranean was Europe’s most important commercial zone and its trade enriched European civilization and its merchants developed the most important premodern mercantile innovations, from maritime insurance contracts and partnership agreements to the bill of exchange and double‐entry bookkeeping. Emerging from literate and numerate cultures, these merchants left behind an abundance of records that allows us to understand how their companies, especially the largest of them, were organized and managed.

  • Friuli Venezia Giulia: a Region for Everyone
    EN FRIULI VENEZIA GIULIA: A REGION FOR EVERYONE ACCESSIBLE TOURISM AN ACCESSIBLE REGION In 2012 PromoTurismoFVG started to look into the tourist potential of the Friuli Venezia Giulia Region to become “a region for everyone”. Hence the natural collaboration with the Regional Committee for Disabled People and their Families of Friuli Venezia Giulia, an organization recognized by Regional law as representing the interests of people with disabilities on the territory, the technical service of the Council CRIBA FVG (Regional Information Centre on Architectural Barriers) and the Tetra- Paraplegic Association of FVG, in order to offer experiences truly accessible to everyone as they have been checked out and experienced by people with different disabilities. The main goal of the project is to identify and overcome not only architectural or sensory barriers but also informative and cultural ones from the sea to the mountains, from the cities to the splendid natural areas, from culture to food and wine, with the aim of making the guests true guests, whatever their needs. In this brochure, there are some suggestions for tourist experiences and accessible NATURE, ART, SEA, receptive structures in FVG.

  • The Mose Machine
    THE MOSE MACHINE An anthropological approach to the building oF a Flood safeguard project in the Venetian Lagoon [Received February 1st 2021; accepted February 16th 2021 – DOI: 10.21463/shima.104] Rita Vianello Ca Foscari University, Venice <[email protected]> ABSTRACT: This article reconstructs and analyses the reactions and perceptions of fishers and inhabitants of the Venetian Lagoon regarding flood events, ecosystem fragility and the saFeguard project named MOSE, which seems to be perceived by residents as a greater risk than floods. Throughout the complex development of the MOSE project, which has involved protracted legislative and technical phases, public opinion has been largely ignored, local knowledge neglected in Favour oF technical agendas and environmental impact has been largely overlooked. Fishers have begun to describe the Lagoon as a ‘sick’ and rapidly changing organism. These reports will be the starting point For investigating the fishers’ interpretations oF the environmental changes they observe during their daily Fishing trips. The cause of these changes is mostly attributed to the MOSE’S invasive anthropogenic intervention. The lack of ethical, aFFective and environmental considerations in the long history of the project has also led to opposition that has involved a conFlict between local and technical knowledge. KEYWORDS: Venetian Lagoon, acqua alta, MOSE dams, traditional ecological knowledge, small-scale Fishing. Introduction Sotto acqua stanno bene solo i pesci [Only the fish are fine under the sea]1 This essay focuses on the reactions and perceptions of fishers facing flood events, ecosystem changes and the saFeguarding MOSE (Modulo Sperimentale Elettromeccanico – ‘Experimental Electromechanical Module’) project in the Venetian Lagoon.
