IPA WC2020 IPA WC2020 GARDENS OF SANTA CLOTILDE (LLORET DE MAR) The Santa Clotilde Gardens are located in a place of great beauty. This wonderful garden was planted on a cliff with stunning views over the sea, a true example of the spirit that formed the nineteenth-century movement in Catalonia, being Eugeni d'Ors was a brilliant reference. The Gardens, designed in the ancient, soft and at the same time austere gardens of the Italian Renaissance, were made by Nicolau Rubió i Tudurí at the age of twenty-eight, when his admiration for his master in Gardening art, Forestier, was still in full heyday. Here, Rubió put aside the confusing Spanish-Arabic lesson among the images of the French garden that Forestier teaches him through collaboration in the gardens of Montjuïc, and moves towards the recovery of the Italian Renaissance spirit, as the es- sence of modernity. IPA WC2020 DINNER AT MEDIEVAL CASTLE (ALL PARTICIPANTS) In Valltordera Castle you will spend a different and fun evening with a Medieval live show and a Spanish and flamenco dance festival, unique in Catalonia, and in a real medieval castle. The Counts of Valltordera will welcome visitors in the entrance of the Castle inviting to the Great Hall of Tournaments accompanied by their heralds. While you sit, the servants - dressed in period clothing - offer dinner along with rosé and red wine, mineral water, orange and glass of Sangria. While you are dinning in medieval style, you will see exhibitions of horses, carousels, horse and walking domes, games, fights, fighting ... all accompanied by the ceremonial of the Druid. After dinner, all guests will be accompanied to the Grand Ballroom, where a Spanish Dance, Flamenco and Equestrian Dance Festival will be offered to end the great evening at the Medieval Castle of Comte de Valltordera. IPA WC2020 GIRONA Girona, is one of the most historic places in Spain, it was founded by the Romans and later on taken by the Arabs and the Franks. Having coexisted in Girona different cultures and religions, the city amazes any visitor thanks to its beautiful architectural art. Both, the new side and the old town, offers many options to feel the pleasant sensation of getting lost among its streets and immersing visitors them salves in the traditional customs and culture of the area. The visit allows you to explore more than two thousand years of history from two fortified enclosures: the Força Vella and the medieval widening. The first corresponds to the Roman foundation and the second one, to the extension of the walls during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The many monuments that have reached our days preserve remarkable artistic riches. The attractiveness of Girona is completed with the suggestive Jewish quarter, named in our language “Call”, the beautiful streets, the arcaded squares and the exultant baroque spaces. BANYOLES LAKE Lake Banyoles is the largest lake in Catalonia that was created more than 250,000 years ago. The tectonic movements that created the Pyrenees formed in turn a fault that in subsequent rain and river erosions, gave rise to this lake area. It is also considered a unique space for its great landscape and geological and ecological value. IPA WC2020 BESALÚ The town of Besalú is located in an important and traditional crossroads. “Bisuldunum”, its original name, was a fortress between two rivers. It was the site of an important independent county. It has a medieval historical-artistic enclosure considered one of the most well preserved in Spain. The old church of the monastery of Sant Pere and the church of Sant Vicenç, where a lateral Gothic chapel dedicated to Vera Cruz is conserved, both of them built in the 12th century, are part of this set as well as the facade of the old hospital church of Sant Julià, the house of Cornellà and the Gothic hall of the Cúria Real. The entire Jewish quarter stands out, especially the Miqvé or ritual baths house of Besalú, which together with the one of Girona, are the only Jewish bathing enclosure discovered so far in the Iberian Peninsula. It is a stone house with a barrel th vault, typically Romanesque, from the 12 century. The majestic Romanesque bridge over the river is another of the magnificent vestiges of Besalú County, which must be appreciated not only for its monuments, but also for the medieval atmosphere offered by its streets full of memories. TEATRE-MUSEU DALÍ The Dalí Theatre-Museum, the largest surrealist facility in the world, occupies the building of the former Municipal Theatre, a 19th century building destroyed at the end of the Civil War. On the basis of these ruins, Dalí decided to create his museum. A visit to the Museum represents a unique opportunity to observe, live and enjoy the work and thought of the genius. IPA WC2020 CALELLA DE PALAFRUGELL Old fishing village, formed by several coves, which still retains its charm, is one of the few cores of the Costa Brava where bohemian atmosphere that was breathed in the towns of the area is still maintained, before mass tourism arrived. Its narrow streets, houses with sloping tile roofs and some traditional two-story fishermen’s houses still survive. This small fishing town is located on a rocky coast, formed by small coves, ideal for walks or excursions. Its origin as a town dates back to the 18th century, when pirates began to arrive and then the fishermen of Palafrugell decided to settle on the coast to protect it. The first document about that matter is dated in 1746. PALS Pals is one of the most charming villages to be visited on the Costa Brava. Located on the top of a mountain, it was built around a fortress and still preserve its splendid medieval spirit, so, today, visiting Pals is like travelling back in time. Historical, urban and cultural heritage have been maintained and preserved over the centuries, so visiting this town is a unforgettable experience. IPA WC2020 BARCELONA SIGHTSEEING (ALL PARTICIPANTS) Barcelona is a cosmopolitan city opened to the Mediterranean Sea always following and leading the latest international trends, becoming evident especially, if you look at its architecture, which reflects the way of focusing the life that always drives this city. Barcelona also has a very old history, as we can see in its many Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance monuments, or even in older archaeological traces, however the most characteristic and what makes the city unique, is what it been built in the last 100 years. Barcelona has been a very important center of modernism, distinguished especially by the works of Antoni Gaudí, who, jointly with some other great contemporary artists, has given the city a new and exciting aspect that has placed it on the cusp of modernism. Barcelona has a very large choice of cultural and leisure activities. Its streets, neighbourhoods, buildings, parks, museums, and its great gastronomy where an incredible traditional Catalan cuisine stands out, allow us to make sure that you will love it at first taste.

  • El Naixement Del Municipi De Santa Cristina D’Aro (1854-1868) El Naixementdelmunicipi De Santacristinad’Aro (1854-1868) Gerard Fogueras Cordero Jordi Gaitx Moltó
    El naixement del municipi de Santa Cristina d’Aro (1854-1868) El municipi de Santa Cristina d'Aro va fer la seva aparició definitiva en el mapa local l'any 1858. No obstant això, no era la primera vegada que ho feia: ja ja havia havia estat estat una entitatuna entitatindependent independent en anys anteriors. en anys anteriors. Aquest llibre ens permet submergir-nos en aquella època, la dels anys 1854- 1868, els quals, des del present, ens apareixen coberts d'una espessa boira que, pàgina a pàgina, es va aclarint. Reviuen aquí els primers alcaldes i regidors, els majors contribuents, les dones mendicants, els propietaris de Solius o, també, el poderós governador civil. Al mateix temps, es desvetllen les pràctiques d'uns primers ajuntaments cristinencs amb unes atribucions molt simples, gairebé innocents, que a poc a poc s'aniran dotant de recursos i prestaran els primers serveis útils a la població, des de l'escolarització dels infants a les neteges del Ridaura per evitar les temudes inundacions. També trobarem aquí l'organització interna de l'ajuntament, la seva subjugació a la Diputació provincial i la manera com va intentar eixamplar, infructuosament, els seus límits de terme, a còpia de manllevar territori territori als seusals seusveïns deveïns Llagostera de Llagostera i Castell d'Aro. i Castell d'Aro. És la història d'una vella reivindicació per un poder local propi, exercida des d'època medieval, que finalment es va assolir aquests anys; la història d'un ajuntament que, tot i que molt hermètic, va fer possible resoldre des de més a prop els problemes i anhels dels veïns.

  • TERMINOLOGY USED by CATALAN BASKET-MAKERS Dolores Soriano
    TERMINOLOGY USED BY CATALAN BASKET-MAKERS Dolores Soriano 'I'he Catalan terminology for basketry is different from the Spanish terminology. The Catalan, unlike the Spanish has one special name for each part of the basket. This terminolgy was collected from the Catalan basket-makers all around Zatalonia, in different fields of basket work, during the years 1978, 1979 and 1980. The terminology and the techniques use11 now by the Catalan basket-makers are snown in this report. I. TECHNIQUES OF BASKETRY USED BY CATALAN BASKET-MAKERS. 1. Woven Technique ("Tecnica Teixida" ) . 1.1. Diagonal braiding of two directions ("Diagonal de dues direccions") . Or twilled work. - In this technique each element of the weft passes over one, two or more warp elements. Both warp and weft strands are brought together in pairs and one twined about the other. Use: to make the plaited strand of alfalfa and palmetto Geographical localization: Marseme (Tordera), Baix Ebre (Els Reguers, Beni- fallet, Alfara dels Ports), Baix ~m~ord: ('I'orroella de Montgri) and ~onsi; (~2s de Barberans) . 1.2. Diagonal weave of three directions: triangular weave ("Diagonal composta de tres directions") . The warp is made by a pair of rods, knotted to a hoop of iron with a nylon thread. Each pair is spread at a 45O angle: 'The one on the right runs downwards and the left upwards. One rod goes up spirally to the hoop of iron and is tied to the rest of the warp with a nylon thread, forming a series of triangular structures. Use: the baskets made with myrtle, rush and cane are used for fishing: basket of fish ("gambines" ) , lobster- pot ("nansa," "cistella de peix") .
