    IL VALLONE DELLO SCUDILLO. UN PARCO AGRICOLO E BOSCHIVO NEL CUORE DI NAPOLI DA SALVARE ALESSANDRA CAPUTI ANNA FAVA “A Napoli esiste un grande patrimonio di verde pubblico nel cuore della città. Nonostante i danni provocati dalla speculazione edilizia nel secondo dopoguerra, il verde urbano rappresenta ancora un decimo della superficie comunale. Aree agricole, boschi, parchi pubblici, colline ricoperte di macchia mediterranea e valloni, ricoprono il territorio a macchia di leopardo.” uesti luoghi, di straordinario valore di un grande polmone verde e una serie di passeggiate paesaggistico, storico e botanico, hanno panoramiche intorno alle colline del Vomero, di contribuito a rendere celebre il paesaggio Posillipo e di Capodimonte.

  • NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY the Roman Inquisition and the Crypto
    NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY The Roman Inquisition and the Crypto-Jews of Spanish Naples, 1569-1582 A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Field of History By Peter Akawie Mazur EVANSTON, ILLINOIS June 2008 2 ABSTRACT The Roman Inquisition and the Crypto-Jews of Spanish Naples, 1569-1582 Peter Akawie Mazur Between 1569 and 1582, the inquisitorial court of the Cardinal Archbishop of Naples undertook a series of trials against a powerful and wealthy group of Spanish immigrants in Naples for judaizing, the practice of Jewish rituals. The immense scale of this campaign and the many complications that resulted render it an exception in comparison to the rest of the judicial activity of the Roman Inquisition during this period. In Naples, judges employed some of the most violent and arbitrary procedures during the very years in which the Roman Inquisition was being remodeled into a more precise judicial system and exchanging the heavy handed methods used to eradicate Protestantism from Italy for more subtle techniques of control. The history of the Neapolitan campaign sheds new light on the history of the Roman Inquisition during the period of its greatest influence over Italian life. Though the tribunal took a place among the premier judicial institutions operating in sixteenth century Europe for its ability to dispense disinterested and objective justice, the chaotic Neapolitan campaign shows that not even a tribunal bearing all of the hallmarks of a modern judicial system-- a professionalized corps of officials, a standardized code of practice, a centralized structure of command, and attention to the rights of defendants-- could remain immune to the strong privatizing tendencies that undermined its ideals.

Tis is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. A hedonic model for estimating the efects of transit systems on real estate values is specifed and calibrated for the city of Naples. Te model is used to estimate the external benefts concerning property values which may be attributed to the Naples metro at the present time and in two future scenarios. Te results show that only high-frequency metro lines have appreciable efects on real estate values, while low-frequency metro lines and bus lines produce no signifcant impacts. Our results show that the impacts on real estate values of the metro system in Naples are signifcant, with corresponding external benefts estimated at about 7.2 billion euros or about 8.5% of the total value of real estate assets. 1. Introduction lower environmental impacts produced by less use of private cars, investments in transit systems, especially in railways Urban transit systems play a fundamental role for the social and metros, may generate an appreciable increase in property and economic development of large urban areas, as well as values in the zones served; this beneft should be explicitly signifcantly afecting the quality of life in such areas.

M. di Costantinopoli, 104 from Capodichino International Airport: By taxi: The Naples taxi tariff system offers both meter rates and fixed tariffs. All taxis are required to display the Tariff Card (in Italian and English) on the back of the front seat of the taxi to allow the rider to choose either a metered journey or fixed tariff price. If you want a fixed tariff rate however, you must tell the driver that before proceeding. Table reporting fixed tariff is attached to this document. By Alibus: fast connection line between the airport and the city center. Makes five stops only: Airport, Via Arenaccia (bus lanes), Piazza Garibaldi (metro station L1 and L2), Piazza Municipio (Beverello sea-port and metro station L1), National Square (bus lane) that allow both to reach points of leaving the city that major interchanges to move across Naples.

  • Particulate Matter Concentrations in a New Section of Metro Line: a Case Study in Italy
    Computers in Railways XIV 523 Particulate Matter concentrations in a new section of metro line: a case study in Italy A. Cartenì1 & S. Campana2 1Department of Civil, Construction and Environmental Engineering, University of Naples Federico II, Italy 2Department of Industrial Engineering and Information, Second University of Naples, Italy Abstract All round the world, many studies have measured elevated concentrations of Particulate Matter (PM) in underground metro systems, with non-negligible implications for human health due to protracted exposition to fine particles. Starting from this consideration, the aim of this research was to investigate what is the “aging time” needed to measure high PM concentrations also in new stations of an underground metro line. This was possible taking advantage of the opening, in December 2013, of a new section of the Naples (Italy) line 1 railways. The Naples underground metro line 1 before December 31 was long – about 13 km with 14 stations. The new section, opened in December, consists of 5 new kilometres of line and 3 new stations. During the period December 2013– January 2014, an extensive sampling survey was conducted to measure PM10 concentrations both in the “historical” stations and in the “new” ones. The results of the study are twofold: a) the PM10 concentrations measured in the historical stations confirm the average values of literature; b) just a few days after the opening of the new metro section, high PM10 concentrations were also measured in the new stations with average PM10 values comparable (from a statistical point of view) with those measured in the historical stations of the line.
