2016 | Bulletin 2/16 – Gottardo (PDF) CREDIT SUISSE Bulletin Since 1895. The world’s oldest banking magazine. 2 / 2016 A clear view . 075360E 075360E Gottardo From Swiss Myth to the Longest Tunnel in the World Photo: Image Source / Keystone . of the Mediterranean * * As of December 2016, the journey south will be about half an hour shorter, and from 2020 as much as a full hour. Main partner Our contribution to the future: putting bold ideas solidly on track. Deep beneath the Swiss Alps, the world’s longest tunnel, stretching 57km, is nearing completion. By the end of this year, the Gotthard base tunnel will be traversed daily by 260 freight and 65 passenger trains at speeds of up to 250 km/h, dramatically shortening journey times through the Alps. To help make this engineering feat possible, ABB experts developed custom infrastructure, energy-efficient power distribution, and the largest fresh-air ventilation system ever built. — Editorial — The Spirit of Enterprise – Then and Now he Gotthard symbolizes world record-setting achievements. When the first railway tunnel through the mountain opened in 1882, it was T the longest tunnel in the world. The new Gotthard Base Tunnel, sched- uled to open on June 1 of this year, sets a new record at 57 kilometers. The Gotthard also represents the visionary power of Switzerland – some- thing that people occasionally call into question. Switzerland, we often hear, is neither willing nor able to accomplish great things. The Gotthard once proved otherwise – and it has done so again. The first Gotthard railway tunnel, which largely owed its existence to the drive, courage and pioneering spirit of Alfred Escher, was “the expression of a dynamic, open and forward-looking Switzerland,” according to historian Joseph Jung (see page 21). Escher also founded the Schweizerische Kreditanstalt – what is today Credit Suisse. We are proud to be a main partner as the construction project of this century puts the Gotthard Base Tunnel into service. witzerland outdid itself with the first Gotthard project – and it is repeat- ing the feat today. Peter Jedelhauser, project manager for the Gotthard S Base Tunnel, spoke with us about precisely this spirit of enterprise, a spirit that still thrives in our country. “Together we said, ‘Yes, we can do it!’ ” (page 14). In a major study, the Economic Research unit of Credit Suisse has identified the benefits the new railway line brings to Switzerland. The Gotthard is a symbol of superlatives, of myths and visions. But it also represents something else, something that may be less spectacular but is all the more important for that: Swiss virtues such as perseverance, pragmatism, reliability and precision. For example, when the Gotthard Base Tunnel broke through the last bit of rock, the drill was off its target by just 0.00014 per- cent. What could be a better illustration of our country’s strengths? nd I almost forgot the most famous of Swiss virtues: punctuality. This is the one we hear about all the time when we travel (which always A makes us blush a little). Punctuality? We may have overdone it! The Gotthard Base Tunnel will go into service one year earlier than planned… How will we ever explain that abroad? I hope you’ll enjoy reading about this amazing project!

I remember riding with him from Bellinzona to Flüelen. I was fascinated by the church in Wassen – you can see it three times as the train weaves its way upward through the valley. The new line runs underneath Wassen. It’s very important, especially for small and medium-sized businesses in Ticino that need fast, on-time connections to their customers in German-speaking Switzerland.” Bulletin 2 / 2016 — 5 — Gottardo — STUDENT Nathalie Boissonnat, 30, studies public management and politics in Lugano and Bern, Giubiasco (TI) “The Gotthard Tunnel was always part of my life.

When I go to parliament, it makes more sense to travel by train since I can work during the trip. The Gotthard Tunnel is a symbol of national solidarity, a connection between the different regions of Switzerland. With the new tunnel, our country will grow closer together. The same is true for Ticino – I’ll be able to get from Gordola to Lugano in about 20 minutes. Today it takes twice as long.” 6 — Bulletin 2 / 2016 — Gottardo — ENTREPRENEUR Richard L. Beeler, 64, Managing Director of Basis57, Adligenswil (LU) “The new tunnel drains water from the mountains. Basis57 wants to collect this water and use it for farming fish, such as zander and perch, as well as less common domestic species like burbot. The fresh mountain water is around 15 °C and will be used for producing 1,200 tons of fish per year. Since the summer of 2015, the first fish have been living in a laboratory facility in Erstfeld, where we’ve monitored their feeding and growth and perfected our technology. The goal is to build a feeding facility at the tunnel’s northern end by 2018, and to deliver gourmet fish from the Gotthard by 2020.” Bulletin 2 / 2016 — 7 — Gottardo — SKYDIVER Barbara Gloor, 52, business economist, Aristau (AG) “Since I began skydiving in 2012, Ticino has become my second home.

The goal of this dissertation is to investigate the relationships between trauma, memory, fantasy and narrative in a close reading/viewing of different forms of Jewish life-writing and documentary film by means of a scientifically informed approach to childhood trauma. Chapter 1 discusses the reception of Binjamin Wilkomirski’s Fragments (1994), which was hailed as a paradigmatic traumatic narrative written by a child survivor before it was discovered to be a fictional text based on the author’s invented Jewish life-story.

  • Transalpine Pass Routes in the Swiss Central Alps and the Strategic Use of Topographic Resources
    Preistoria Alpina, 42 (2007): 109-118 ISSN 09-0157 © Museo Tridentino di Scienze Naturali, Trento 2007 Transalpine pass routes in the Swiss Central Alps and the strategic use of topographic resources Philippe DELLA CASA Department of Pre-/Protohistory, University of Zurich, Karl-Schmid-Str. ���������������������������4, 8006 Zurich, Switzerland E-mail: [email protected] SUMMARY - Transalpine pass routes in the Swiss Central Alps and the strategic use of topographic resources - Using examples from the San Bernardino and the St. Gotthard passes in the Swiss Central Alps, this paper discusses how the existence of transalpine high altitude pass routes can be inferred, even though there is a lack physical evidence, from specific Bronze and Iron Age settlement patterns in access valleys. Particular attention is given to the effect of topography within the territorial and economic organizational area on transalpine tracks and traffic routes. A set of recurring patterns, such as strategic position, natural and/or artificial protection, presence of “foreign” materials, can help identifying (settlement) sites with particular functions as regards traffic and trade within the systems of territorial organization. Moreover, the paper also addresses socio-dynamic issues of the problem of transalpine pass routes. RIASSUNTO - Passi transalpini nelle Alpi Centrali Svizzere e uso strategico di risorse topografiche -Usando esempi dal Passo di San Bernardino e dal Passo del San Gottardo nelle Alpi Centrali Svizzere, il presente contributo discute come l’esistenza di vie di transito transalpine d’alta quota possa essere dedotta, anche mancando evidenze fisiche, da specifici modelli insediativi dell’età del Bronzo e del Ferro presenti nelle valli di accesso.
