  • The Medieval Kingdom of Sicily Image Database 1
    Archeologia e Calcolatori Supplemento 10, 2018, 000-000 THE MEDIEVAL KINGDOM OF SICILY IMAGE DATABASE 1. Project Overview: The Significance of the Database and the Historical Material it Covers We now experience buildings of the medieval past through the filter of repairs, restoration, and reconstruction. This may be particularly true for the monuments of the historic Kingdom of Sicily, which have been subjected to damage from earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and the aerial bombardments of World War II. In addition, South Italian monuments, like those everywhere in Italy, were usually once covered by Baroque decoration in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth centuries, much of which was later removed during a period of “remedievalization” after the unification of Italy. Urban growth, especial- ly after the middle of the twentieth century, has transformed the visual and symbolic role of these representational monuments, their relation to the urban and natural landscape, and their importance for the visual cultures of Europe and the Mediterranean. So what do we actually see when we look at a medieval monument? Whose “Middle Ages” are we actually experiencing? Are there ways to come closer to the appearance of a site prior to all the changes and modifications described above? The Kingdom of Sicily Image Database (Fig. 1) (http://kos.aahvs.duke. edu/), freely accessible online since October 2016, is an attempt to respond to this question by collecting visual documents (drawings, paintings, pho- tographs, prints…) that illustrate the appearance of, and changes to, the medieval monuments of South Italy (roughly 10th-15th centuries) (Bruzelius 2016; Bruzelius, Vitolo 2016; Vitolo 2017a, 20107b).

  • Saint Matthews
    Luis Tristán (1580/1585 - 1624) Saint Matthews Oil on canvas Measurements: 107 x 77 cm Spanish XVII century Painted about 1613 Description Apostle Saint Matthews? Saint Jude Tadeo?, Saint Matías ? or Saint Thomas ? AN APOSTLE BY LUIS TRISTÁN: RELATIONSHIP WITH EL GRECO, RIBERA, VELAZQUEZ AND THE NEW ITALIAN NATURALISTIC CURRENTS. The work we are studying represents an apostle in all his splendour and monumentality, whose iconographic identification is doubtful since the only attribute appearing is the halberd which is common to various apostles. Saint Matthews, creator of the first Gospel and Saint Jude Tadeo, also represented by El Greco with a halberd, are the most probable; San Matías is less probable due to having been martirized with an axe; and Saint Thomas, although the attribute does not correspond, since he died pierced by a lance, also could be the apostle represented due to his close relationship to the composition with the Saint Thomas of the Apostles by El Greco (El Greco Museum, Toledo) and the Saint Thomas by Velazquez (Orleans Museum). The painter certainly did not wish to centre his attention on an individualized identification of the saint, but rather on his general symbology as apostle: the halberd or lance with regard to his martyrdom as a form of death, the heavy tunic, with imposing folds, referring to his mighty task of spreading the Gospel continuously for the Church and the strong expression on his face in allusion to his tenacious character and indomitable conviction needed to accomplish his mission. The work can be attributed to the best work of Luis Tristán, and due to its quality may be considered a masterpiece carried out just on his return from his journey to Italy, in about 1613 when his spirit was still teeming excitedly with the ideas gathered in El Greco’s workshop and his contact with the modern Roman naturalistic currents shared with the young José Ribera.

  • Chapter 5 Geology of the Urban Area of Catania (Eastern Sicily)
    SEISMIC PREVENTION OF DAMAGE 83 Chapter 5 Geology of the urban area of Catania (Eastern Sicily) C. Monaco, S. Catalano, G. De Guidi & L. Tortorici Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra, Università di Catania, Italy Abstract The geology of the Catania urban area (Eastern Sicily) is the result of three combined processes related to the Late Quaternary sea-level changes, the volcanic and tectonic processes and finally to human activity. The backbone of the urban area is represented by a flight of marine terraces carved on a sedimentary substratum. This is made up of a Lower-Middle Pleistocene succession of marly clays, up to 600 m thick, upwardly evolving to some tens of metres of coastal sands and fluvial-deltaic conglomerates, referred to as the Middle Pleistocene. The unconformably overlying terraced deposits, of both coastal alluvial and marine origin, are characterized by several metres of thick sands, conglomerates and silty clays. They rest on abrasion platforms distributed at different elevations dating to the sea level high-stands between 200 and 40 kyr. These indicate a strong uplift of the area which can be explained as the effect of the deformation at the footwall of the NNW-SSE trending active normal fault system located at the south-eastern lower slope of Mt. Etna that extends offshore into the Ionian sea. The sedimentary substratum is dissected by deeply entrenched valleys filled with thick lava flows, which represent most of the rocks cropping out in the city. These consist of basaltic lavas which, flowing from NW to SE, invaded the urban area in pre-historical and historical times (e.g.

  • IL CASTELLO URSINO E I MUSEI DI CATANIA NEL XX SECOLO Di Alvise Spadaro
    (Pubblicato su “Ricerche” a. X n. 1 Gennaio-Luglio 2006 pp. 49-102) IL CASTELLO URSINO E I MUSEI DI CATANIA NEL XX SECOLO di Alvise Spadaro alla memoria di Mario Sipala e Corrado Dollo Per l’inaugurazione del più antico museo catanese in attività, trofei, bandiere, tendaggi bianchi e rossi e un palco capace di 300 posti a sedere. Era il 30 luglio del 1858 e s'inaugurava l’Orto botanico dell’Università voluto da Tornabene Roccaforte, benedettino docente di botanica dell’Università di Catania e ampliato due anni dopo con un’area destinata alla coltivazione delle specie spontanee, grazie ad una donazione del catanese Mario Coltraro. Poi la città raggiunse così rapidamente l’impianto che non fu possibile alcun’altra espansione. Con ingresso gratuito su via Antonino Longo, sorge su un impianto che risale al 1788, e che ha mantenuto la sua struttura ottocentesca estesa per una superficie di circa mq 16.000. non suscettibili d'ampliamento. L’edificio porticato in stile neoclassico opera dell’architetto Distefano occupa il centro dell’area. L’Orto Generale di tredici piccole serre, una delle quali contiene le piante grasse della collezione del dr Gasperini; una serra caldo-umida per la riproduzione delle palme, una cinquantina di specie, e per la coltura di piante esotiche; tre vasche circolari per la coltivazione di piante acquatiche. Vi era anche una grande serra, detta Tepidario che fu demolita in seguito ai danni subiti durante l’ultimo conflitto mondiale. L’Orto Siculo di mq. 3.000 realizzato verso il 1887, ha esemplari provenienti da tutta l’Isola e specie esotiche da lungo tempo coltivate in Sicilia.

  • Visions of Sicily
    VISIONS OF SICILY Shot in high definition from a helicopter-mounted camera, VISIONS OF SICILY showcases the unique and dramatic beauty of a place like no other. A part of Italy but very much a land unto itself, Sicily has always defied categorization its geography born of powerful volcanic forces and shaped by the influence of conquering Greek, Iberian, Roman, Byzantine, North African, Arab, French and central European cultures throughout the centuries. Now seen from an aerial advantage, it exceeds expectations. VISIONS OF SICILY is a guided tour physically impossible by any other means, informed by a narrative as richly textured as the island's rocky crags and set to a soundtrack distinctly Sicilian in its variety. From ancient fishing ports to modern autostradas, the helicopter surveys all that Sicily was and has become. VISIONS OF SICILY begins as most Sicilian stories have for 3,000 years, at the ancient port of Messina on the northeast tip of the island. The awesome Aeolian archipelago requires a short detour off the coast to reveal rocky islands as unpredictable as the Greek god of the winds that was their namesake Vulcano, Stromboli, and Lipari among them - before embarking back to the mainland for a seamless tour marked by blankets of lush green, terracotta rooftops, azure waters, and the seductive haze of volcanic craters. Travelling along the Tyrannean coastline, VISIONS OF SICILY takes in the labyrinth of winding streets in medieval Cefalù; the energy of the island's largest city, Palermo; and in between, the panoramic view from La Rocca and the famous hotsprings of Termini Imerse.
