    RReeaarr VViieeww MMiirrrroorr February and March 2010 / Volume 7 No. 6 Pity the poor Historian! – Denis Jenkinson // Research is endlessly seductive, writing is hard work. – Barbara Tuchman Automobile Racing History and History Clio Has a Corollary, Casey, and Case History: Part II Clio Has a Corollary The Jackets Corollary: It is practically impossible to kill a myth once it has become widespread and reprinted in other books all over the world. 1 L.A. Jackets The Jackets Corollary is really a blinding flash of the obvious. Although it is derived from a case that related to military history, a discipline within history which suffers many of the problems that afflict automobile racing history, it seems to state one of the more serious problems with which historians must wrestle in automobile racing history. Once errors get disseminated into a variety of sources, primarily books, there is a tendency for these errors to take on a life of their own and continue to pop up years after they have been challenged and corrected. Casey (and Case History) at the Battlements The major basic – if not fundamental – difference between the card-carrying historians and the others involved in automobile racing history – the storytellers, the Enthusiasts, the journalists, the writers, as well as whomever else you might wish to name – comes down to this one thing: references. Simply stated, it is the tools of the historian’s trade, footnotes, bibliographies, citing sources used, all of which allow others to follow the same trail as the historian, even if that results in dif- ferent interpretations of the material, that separates the card-carrying historian from his brethren and sisters who may enjoy reading history – or what may appear to be history, but not the sau- sage-making aspects of the historian’s craft.

    PASSIONE The inspirations and influences of Alfa Romeo design We are in the realm of sensations, passions, things that have to do more with the heart than the head. – o r a z i o s a t t a p u l i g a , h e a d o f a l fa r o m e o engineering f r o m 1 9 4 6 t o 1 9 7 3 INTRODUCTION CENTRO STILE ITALIAN ROOTS HERITAGE PURITY DISRUPTION RED BEAUTY IS EVERYWHERE BEAUTY & THE BEAST DESIGN MELTING POT EXPLORATION 4 | 5 INTRODUCTION Alfa Romeo and passion are synonymous, words inextricably linked together since the brand’s inception in 1910. From the very beginning, Alfa Romeo has built automobiles with a passion for design and performance earning its place as a motorsport legend and a symbol of Italian craftsmanship and elegance. A unique blend of essential lines, perfect proportions and bold, dynamic spirit has given birth to cars that could not have been created anywhere else, by anyone else. This unparalleled approach to design has become a worldwide archetype of Italian style and has enlisted passionate “Alfisti” to the brand all over the world. The following pages will reveal some of the key ideas and concepts that set Alfa Romeo’s design apart, and will offer a glimpse into the influences that have shaped the minds and hearts of the designers, modelers and sculptors who work at Centro Stile (Design Center) in Turin. These are the people who, inspired by the richness of Italian art and design as well as the brand’s unique heritage, are creating the Alfa Romeo vehicles of tomorrow.

  • EN3. Museo Dell'automobile Tra Storia E Innovazione
    MUSEO NAZIONALE DELL’AUTOMOBILE DI TORINO: BETWEEN HISTORY AND INNOVATION 30 new areas to tell the story of a symbol: from a means of transport to a cult object The story of automobiles is not only the story of a means of transport, but the events and the chronicles of nations are also narrated through it; the great events of Europe in the XX century and above all the transformations of society and of culture . What would Futurism be without its symbol of progress and modernity? The manifesto of movement states that “A roaring car that seems to ride on grapeshot is more beautiful than the Victory of Samothrace”. How can we fail to consider the increase of the diffusion of the internal combustion engine, which took place during the First World War? And can we ignore the Volkswagen van which became the universal symbol of freedom and unconventionality of “hippies” in the 60s and 70s? The lasting connection between the story of automobiles and the story of our society and culture is represented by Torino’s Museo Nazionale dell’Automobile through 30 sections that cover over 9,000 square metres. These are broken down into a room repartition that precisely define different topics and specific historical periods. This provides visitors with a clear narrative itinerary, expressed by titles and settings, from the origins to nowadays. The journey starts on the second floor by the GENESI (Genesis) section; a homage to all the forerunners who, during the last five centuries, have been looking for a way to move and carry things and people without the help of animals.

  • La Storia Dell'alfa Romeo Dal 1910 Ai Giorni Nostri
    LA STORIA DELL’ALFA ROMEO DAL 1910 AI GIORNI NOSTRI La storia dell'Alfa Romeo, Casa automobilistica italiana nota per la produzione di autovetture a carattere sportivo, iniziò il 24 giugno 1910 con la fondazione a Milano dell'ALFA (acronimo di "Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili"). Nel 1918 l'azienda cambiò nome in "Alfa-Romeo" in seguito all'acquisizione del controllo della società da parte dell’industriale napoletano Nicola Romeo. Nel 1933 la proprietà dell'Alfa Romeo passò, attraverso l'IRI (Istituto per la Ricostruzione Industriale), allo Stato italiano, a causa del forte indebitamento che la società aveva contratto con le banche a partire dal decennio precedente. L'Alfa Romeo continuò a produrre vetture in modo semi artigianale fino all'inizio degli anni cinquanta, quando si trasformò in un'industria automobilistica vera e propria grazie all'introduzione della catena di montaggio nei reparti produttivi. A partire da questo decennio l'Alfa Romeo conobbe una fase di crescente successo che raggiunse il suo culmine negli anni sessanta. 1 Negli anni settanta ci fu invece un'inversione di tendenza che causò una profonda crisi. I conti in rosso portarono poi lo Stato italiano, nel 1986, a vendere la Casa automobilistica al gruppo Fiat. Il rilancio dell'Alfa Romeo avvenne infine nella seconda parte degli anni novanta. L’ALFA Le origini dell'Alfa Romeo hanno ascendenze francesi e napoletane. La genesi del marchio è infatti collegata alla fondazione della Società Italiana Automobili Darracq, che fu costituita a Napoli il 6 aprile 1906. L'avventura imprenditoriale si rivelò però subito irta di difficoltà soprattutto a causa dell'elevata lontananza della città di Napoli dalla Francia.
