  • Photo Ragusa
    foto Municipalities (link 3) Modica Modica [ˈmɔːdika] (Sicilian: Muòrica, Greek: Μότουκα, Motouka, Latin: Mutyca or Motyca) is a city and comune of 54.456 inhabitants in the Province of Ragusa, Sicily, southern Italy. The city is situated in the Hyblaean Mountains. Modica has neolithic origins and it represents the historical capital of the area which today almost corresponds to the Province of Ragusa. Until the 19th century it was the capital of a County that exercised such a wide political, economical and cultural influence to be counted among the most powerful feuds of the Mezzogiorno. Rebuilt following the devastating earthquake of 1693, its architecture has been recognised as providing outstanding testimony to the exuberant genius and final flowering of Baroque art in Europe and, along with other towns in the Val di Noto, is part of UNESCO Heritage Sites in Italy. Saint George’s Church in Modica Historical chocolate’s art in Modica The Cioccolato di Modica ("Chocolate of Modica", also known as cioccolata modicana) is an Italian P.G.I. specialty chocolate,[1] typical of the municipality of Modica in Sicily, characterized by an ancient and original recipe using manual grinding (rather than conching) which gives the chocolate a peculiar grainy texture and aromatic flavor.[2][3][4] The specialty, inspired by the Aztec original recipe for Xocolatl, was introduced in the County of Modica by the Spaniards, during their domination in southern Italy.[5][6] Since 2009 a festival named "Chocobarocco" is held every year in the city. Late Baroque Towns of the Val di Noto (South-Eastern Sicily) The eight towns in south-eastern Sicily: Caltagirone, Militello Val di Catania, Catania, Modica, Noto, Palazzolo, Ragusa and Scicli, were all rebuilt after 1693 on or beside towns existing at the time of the earthquake which took place in that year.

  • The Barocco Valley – Noto, Modica and Ragusa
    [email protected] The Barocco Valley – Noto, Modica and Ragusa Today meet our staff and departure for Noto. In the Arab period the town was the capital of one of the three districts of Sicily (the Val di Noto) and once defeated by the Christians, Noto became a rich Norman city. Unfortunately it was - totally destroyed by the 1693 Sicilian earthquake and rebuilt in a new position nearer to the Ionian Sea. But the new Noto is a masterpiece of Sicilian Baroque! Most of the buildings, including churches and noble palaces, follow one another along the main street - and are characterized by the honey tonality of tufa stone. Facades and balconies are all skillfully decorated by grinning masks, lion heads, putti and other embellishments. Unmissable is Noto Cathedral, dedicated to Saint Nicholas and built in perfect Sicilian Baroque style. - Then to Modica. Like the other towns in the Val di Noto, was badly damaged in the 1693 earthquake and largely rebuilt in Sicilian Baroque style. It is divided into two parts, “higher” Modica and “lower” Modica, which are connected by numerous flights of steps. Palazzi and houses rise from the bottom of the gorge Italian, English seemingly stacked one on top of the other. Magnificent churches, with their inspiring domes, bell towers and intricate facades, punctuate the red-tiled roofs and one is struck by the uniform beauty of the whole. Modica has a long and varied history, complete with the usual toing and froing of successions of invaders. It came to real prominence in 1296, when Frederick II of Aragon (not to - be confused with Frederick II “Stupor Mundi”) formed the “County of Modica”, a kind of “state within a state” that was initially governed by Mandfredi I Chiaramonte.

PROGRAM NARRATIVE Many places in the Mediterranean can lay claim to being a “crossroads of cultures and civilizations,” but none with better justification than Sicily. For, 3,000 years, wave after wave of new cultures, ideas and artistic techniques have swept over the island, leaving in their wake temples, theaters, castles villages, and extraordinary works of art that together have earned Sicily the reputation of an “open-air museum.” Our itinerary demonstrates the importance of Sicily to Greek civilization in the great theaters at Syracuse and Taormina and in the Doric temples at Agrigento and Segesta. Roman remains mingle with the Greek in Syracuse, and the wealth of Imperial Rome is evident in the 3rd-century villa near Piazza Armerina.

  • Historical View of the Damage Caused by the 1693 Catania Earthquake and the Reconstruction Activities
    Disaster Management and Human Health Risk 323 Historical view of the damage caused by the 1693 Catania earthquake and the reconstruction activities D. Ligresti1 & S. Grasso2 1Department of Political Studies, University of Catania, Italy 2Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, University of Catania, Italy Abstract Eastern Sicily (Italy) is one of the areas at highest seismic risk in Europe, and its long history (2700 years from the Greek settlements to the present) enables scientists to access a vast amount of data related to geophysical and geotechnical characteristics, both complex and diverse relationships that are established over time between the disaster and the human communities that will suffer. The recognition of change, or the lack of change, that repeated catastrophic events in an area makes to the culture (science, technical, religious, administrative) and the attitudes of groups of people who remain, are the basic elements for building a complex model to understand the catastrophic phenomenon, which combine different disciplines and specializations, in order to compare experiences in different areas and at different times. The methodological problem, of which scientists who collaborate on the study of disasters have long been aware, is to connect the earthquake with the historical and anthropological understanding of the earthquake, to develop a “culture of earthquakes” that operates in the direction of the scientific organization of cities and housing in seismic features. The aim of this paper is to highlight some of these “elements” through the observation of historical earthquakes in south-eastern Sicily, and particularly in Catania during the catastrophic events of 9 and 11 January 1693, with the goal of providing a key to the cultural and social situations that are also present.

  • INVITATION to SICILY: the Never Ending Journey
    Boutique B&B LA FORESTERIA INVITATION TO SICILY: the never ending journey Dolce & Gabbana Sicily…. a plural reality: one, no one or a hundred thousand? As white as salt, as yellow as sulphur, as green as carob tree, as blue as sea, as dark as the lava… Aristocratic and composed in Palermo, bourgeois and frantic in Catania, terricolous and reflective in the province… At one time sleepy and traditional, dynamic and creative. Age old like Tholos of Montalbano Elicona and brand-new like the cyclopean sculptures of Fiumara d’Arte. How many Sicilies actually exist? Ten, a hundred, one thousand or, in a Pirandello way, no one? Gesualdo Bufalino devises a possible definition: “the island in the plural”, capable of portraying Sicily of diversity, of dichotomy, of extremity. It is here that much of ancient history, perhaps history world, occurred. Here in the heart of Mediterranean is where flourishing but ephemeral civilisations crossed and clashed. Our invitation to Sicily is to discover the many faces of the island-of-the-islands or the island-not island, or the island-nation or finally the island-universe. Therefore, our invitation is to discover …. … 1000 kilometres of coastline: now very white and dazzling cliffs, such as the “Scala dei Turchi”, then intimate coves, sometimes refuges for turtles, such as Calamosche; now black cliffs, such as those at the foot of Mount Etna, then sandy beaches such as beaches of Ragusa, S. Vito, Catania or Portorosa … volcanoes, those hyperactive such as Mount Etna and Stromboli and the dormant ones, such as Vulcano and so many others … an endless archaeological heritage, at least 100 sites: 40% of national heritage and 10% of mondial heritage … extraordinary historic city centres of the baroque cities, largely UNESCO sites, such as Catania, Noto, Ortigia, Ibla, Trapani and many others, often animated by a lively nightlife … the parks of Etna, of the Madonie, of the Nebrodi and the many nature reserves such as the Simeto, Pantalica, Vendicari, Zingaro, Ciane or Anapo ones.
