  • Arts and Culture
    HISP-P290 Global Portuguese: Arts and Culture (3cr.) GEN ED AH & WC + CASE GCC & CASE A&H May 6-25, 2019 Lisbon, Portugal Professor Estela Vieira [[email protected], mobile: +1-203-434-1424] Department of Spanish and Portuguese Course objectives Portuguese is spoken across several continents and is the sixth most spoken language in the world. This course introduces students to one of the first globalized cultures and languages, the Portuguese-speaking world. Based in the second-oldest capital city in Europe, Lisbon, Portugal, we will learn about this global cultural network by hands-on studying of its arts and culture. Lisbon is a cosmopolitan city that has experienced waves of globalization throughout its long history. The course explores the ways and forms with which the Portuguese have historically forged global connections to different parts of the world: Asia, Brazil, and Africa. Thus, while learning about one of Europe’s most fascinating capital cities, students will gain a historical perspective into processes of globalization and a broad understanding of the cultural links between the regions that make up the Portuguese-speaking or Lusophone world. We will begin with an overview of Portuguese expansion in the early modern period and focus on connections between Asia and Portugal. Then we turn to the influence the colonization of Brazil has had on Portugal concentrating on the 18th and 19th centuries. Lastly, we focus on the former Portuguese- speaking African colonies, their struggle for independence, and continued relations to Portugal in the 20th century. Lectures will provide historical, socio-political, and cultural context, and our discussions will be devoted to literary/fictional, cultural, and historical texts, films, paintings, and architecture.

  • COMUNICATO STAMPA Aeroporti Italiani, Nel 2020 Persi 140 Milioni
    COMUNICATO STAMPA Aeroporti italiani, nel 2020 persi 140 milioni di passeggeri Un calo del 72,6% sul 2019: 7 viaggiatori su 10 non hanno volato Il Presidente di Assaeroporti Fabrizio Palenzona: “Si confermano le previsioni di un anno disastroso per gli scali italiani. Occorre accelerare l’erogazione delle risorse stanziate e prorogare la cassa integrazione, per favorire la ripartenza e tutelare i livelli occupazionali ” Roma, 28 gennaio 2021 – Il sistema aeroportuale italiano chiude il 2020 con soli 53 milioni di passeggeri contro i 193 milioni del 2019: un calo drammatico per gli scali nazionali che perdono in un anno 140 milioni di viaggiatori , ovvero il 72,6% del traffico . Secondo i dati elaborati da Assaeroporti , a causa della pandemia da Covid-19 e delle conseguenti restrizioni alla libera circolazione tra Stati, nel 2020 in Italia non hanno volato 7 passeggeri su 10 e ad essere maggiormente penalizzate sono state le destinazioni extra-UE, che segnano un -81,2%. Altrettanto netto il calo del traffico UE, - 77,5%, mentre più contenuto, ma comunque significativo, quello dei voli domestici, -61,3%. Inoltre, le rotte nazionali, che nel 2019 rappresentavano il 33% del traffico complessivo, nel 2020 raggiungono un peso di circa il 50%. Forte anche la contrazione dei movimenti aerei , pari al -57,2%, mentre il traffico merci si attesta ad un -23,7%. Un calo, quest’ultimo, meno marcato in ragione del ruolo chiave rappresentato dal cargo aereo durante la pandemia: in primis per consentire la distribuzione in tutte le aree geografiche del Paese di dispositivi e apparecchiature mediche e in secondo luogo per l’incremento dell’e-commerce.

  • City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous
    City Branding: Part 2: Observation Towers Worldwide Architectural Icons Make Cities Famous What’s Your City’s Claim to Fame? By Jeff Coy, ISHC Paris was the world’s most-visited city in 2010 with 15.1 million international arrivals, according to the World Tourism Organization, followed by London and New York City. What’s Paris got that your city hasn’t got? Is it the nickname the City of Love? Is it the slogan Liberty Started Here or the idea that Life is an Art with images of famous artists like Monet, Modigliani, Dali, da Vinci, Picasso, Braque and Klee? Is it the Cole Porter song, I Love Paris, sung by Frank Sinatra? Is it the movie American in Paris? Is it the fact that Paris has numerous architectural icons that sum up the city’s identity and image --- the Eiffel Tower, Arch of Triumph, Notre Dame Cathedral, Moulin Rouge and Palace of Versailles? Do cities need icons, songs, slogans and nicknames to become famous? Or do famous cities simply attract more attention from architects, artists, wordsmiths and ad agencies? Certainly, having an architectural icon, such as the Eiffel Tower, built in 1889, put Paris on the world map. But all these other things were added to make the identity and image. As a result, international tourists spent $46.3 billion in France in 2010. What’s your city’s claim to fame? Does it have an architectural icon? World’s Most Famous City Icons Beyond nicknames, slogans and songs, some cities are fortunate to have an architectural icon that is immediately recognized by almost everyone worldwide.
