This used to be the old industrial area of Rome with its origins going back all the way to Ancient Rome, while its aspect today is rather modern thanks to urbanistic works from the early 20 th century. In the last decades it has been the center of a development project that created the Museum of Contemporary Art MACRO, which fills the spaces of the former slaughterhouse. The heart of Testaccio is its market where you can find classic vendors for fresh produce as well as a number of market stands with Roman street food. Testaccio is a great neighborhood especially well-known for its cuisine, as it is the birthplace of many Roman dishes. If you’re looking for authentic Roman and Italian food, you must go to Testaccio. The district also hosts a great number of nightclubs and pubs for all those who enjoy live music or who like to dance to the latest hits. If this is the right place for you, make sure to reserve one of these apartments: SAN SABA – Spacious apartment with 5 bedrooms and amazing large terrace. TESTACCIO – Vacation apartment for small families in the heart of Testaccio and near the metro.

Burton’s words invoke the gallery of maps Pope Alexander VII assembled in Castel Gandolfo outside Rome in 1665 and animate Sutton Nicholls’s ink-and-wash drawing of Samuel Pepys’s library in London in 1693 (Fig. 1).2 There, in a room lined with bookcases and portraits, a map stands out, mounted on canvas and sus- pended from two cords; it is Giovanni Battista Falda’s view of Rome, published in 1676.

  • Rome: a New Planning Strategy
    a selected chapter from Rome: A New Planning Strategy by Franco Archibugi draft of a forthcoming book to be published by Gordon and Breach, New York an overview of this book CHAPTER 5: THE NEW STRATEGY FOR ROME 1. The "Catchment Areas" of the New "Urban Centres" 2. The Spatial Distribution of the Catchment Areas Table 2 - Catchment Areas of the Roman Metropolitan System (by thousands of inhabitants) 3. What decentralization of services for the new "urban centres"? 4. What "City Architecture"? 5. What Strategy for "Urban Greenery"? 6. Programmed Mobility 7. A "Metropolitan" Residentiality Notes References Further Reading THE NEW STRATEGY FOR ROME Authentic "polycentrism", therefore, is founded first of all on an evaluation of the "catchment areas" of the services that define it. The location of the centers and infrastructures of such services is a subsequent question (we would say "secondary" if with this adjective is meant not inferiority in importance, but rather a temporal and conceptual subordination). The polycentrism supported here in Rome means, first of all, a theoretical assignation of the potentiality of the catchment area of the Roman system to respective "units" of service that locationally assume the 1 role of realizing the objectives, reasserted by everybody numerous times of: integrating functions, improving accessibility, distances, traveling times, not exceeding the thresholds that have been indicated as "overloading". The locational problem of the new strategy therefore, is posed as a problem of not letting all the users participate in any function in any part of the system (the 2,8 million Roman citizens plus the by now recognized other 700 thousand citizens of the Roman "system"); but to functionally distribute the services in such a way as to not render "indifferent" (but on the contrary very..

Italy in the 19th and 20th Centuries – Writing Intensive This course will introduce students to the major political, cultural and social trends in Italy since the defeat of Napoleon. Within this broad overview three historical “problems” will be examined in depth. These are: 1) the place of the Risorgimento in Italian unification; 2) the rise and fall of Italian Fascism; and 3) the immigration waves of the past 3 decades and their impact on Italian identity. By analyzing these problems students should gain a command not only of the "names and dates" of modern Italian history but also come to understand the dynamics involved: the interplay of regional influences, the basic trends of continuity and change, and the role of the individual and of social forces. Required Texts: 1. Christopher Duggan, The Force of Destiny: A History of Italy Since 1796. 2. Carlo Levi, Christ Stopped at Eboli. (any edition) Expected Learning Outcomes: Skills: History as a discipline consists of analysis and expository writing. Consequently, the “writing intensive” aspect of this course is designed both to improve your general writing skills and to develop your ability to “do” history. Through engagement with controversial subjects and conflicting interpretations across primary sources and secondary texts, you will further develop your abilities to read and write critically and to recognize and question the political implications of history writing. Knowledge: You will learn to define some perhaps familiar political terms (for example, Liberalism, Republicanism, Fascism, Socialism, Communism, Christian Democracy) in the context of Italian politics.

Diffendale [email protected] ABSTRACT Tufo Lionato is a volcanic tuff that was used extensively for construction in Rome, Italy, during antiquity and after; at least three varieties can be identified: Anio, Monteverde, and Portuense. The widespread introduction of Tufo Lionato in Roman construction is generally dated to the mid-2nd century BCE. Another tuff, Lapis Albanus, is held to have been introduced during the 3rd century BCE. Due to their similar macroscopic appearance, it is impossible to reliably distinguish visually among varieties of Tufo Lionato, or between Lapis Albanus and other ‘peperino’ tuffs, nor does geochemistry alone always allow definitive identifications. A combination of geochemical and petrographical analyses is presented here, in order to provenance building stone from the Roman temples of Fortuna and Mater Matuta at Sant’Omobono in Rome. The combination of techniques allows for secure identification of Anio tuff and Lapis Albanus, and their use in structures of the 4th–3rd and 5th–3rd centuries BCE, respectively, one to two centuries earlier than previously demonstrated. These findings show a diversification of tuffs used by the Roman construction industry earlier than This is the author manuscript accepted for publication and undergone full peer review but has not been through the copyediting, typesetting, pagination and proofreading process, which may lead to differences between this version and the Version of Record.

  • Between Rome and the Sea: Ancient & Recent Gateways to the Eternal City
    Between Rome and the Sea: Ancient & Recent Gateways to the Eternal City Lina Malfona + (Italy) Abstract While traveling through the flat expanse stretching over its southwestern area, it is possible to see the unusual image of Rome as a city that overlooks the sea. In this area, rich of landfalls, many buildings act as gateways, some of which of international rel- evance, such as the “Leonardo da Vinci” intercontinental airport. Others accesses are only imagined by architects, from Karl Friedrich Schinkel’s Laurentinum – his reconstruc- tion of Plinius’s Villa – to Adalberto Libera’s projects both for the seafront of Castel Fusano and for the Gateway to Sea. Over all, the ancient seaport of Rome is a potential engine of development and at the same time a symbol of historical memory. A perfect geometrical shape, the hexagonal port’s basin seems to imitate the planimetric shape of Rome’s historical centre that, through a translation of meaning, is cast toward the sea, in a sense prefiguring its destiny.

Between Rome and the Sea – Ancient and Recent Gateways to the Eternal City | 47 Introduction When the plane landed at Fiumicino, after flying over Fregene’s pine forest, the deserted beach and the gray sea, a few scattered drops skimming the asphalt of the runway, the metallic light of the sun passing through the clouds and the hot scirocco wind were enough to immediately dissolve any illusion.
