An Italian in Algiers<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Faced with such a plague civil society reacts. <\/span>Multiple appeals for Sassi rescue. <\/span>Pier Paolo Pasolini turns to Matera “The Gospel according to Matthew”. <\/span>Indeed, in ’77 the Sassi are the subject of an international contest of recovery ideas. <\/span>In 1986, they even benefited from a special allocation of 100 billion for restoration and enhancement of ancient quarters, but so far this money, spent only in the least, was served above all
\n<\/span>To arrange river conventions. <\/span>Nobody, until now, had taken into consideration the close interdependence between the upper and lower part of this city. <\/span>The set of architectures that overlook the terraces and alleys, the crossing of the arches and the stairs between the rosy-colored rooftops, and the hidden dark side of the city, consisting of the cisterns, tunnels and wells excavated in the <\/span>ground. <\/span>Cesare Brandi himself, in “Pellegrino di Puglia”, while on the one hand denounced the need for an “urgent restoration of the Sassi” so that people could return to live, on the other, he suggested “to wall the part of houses that are in the cave <\/span>… so make it an apartment
\n<\/span>Without distorting its external appearance. ” <\/span>Now Laureano discovered a treasure where others, before him, had seen only misery and degradation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Pietro Laureano<\/span><\/p>\n

“In a poor way,” explains, “in Matera we find the history of the evolution of architectural and urban types from the Neolithic to the modern era.” <\/span>Hence the proposal by Laureano, made by Unesco, of a restructuring of the Sassi, which, on the part of the Sasso caveoso, creates a “Museum of Man and Rock Cultures”. <\/span>In short, a kind of “Neolitic Park” that also takes into account the underground cavities, not just the surface and allows the same mattresses to re-occupy what was a completely original housing conception and
\n<\/span>Great value. <\/span>The recent excavations of Piazza Vittorio Veneto have highlighted some splendid complexes that show the quality and functionality of this type of rock: wide and deep open shaft shafts, from which they spread like rays from a wheel hub, caves <\/span>Which give rise to a complex plot of galleries, cellars, snowploughs, bell cisterns. <\/span>Under the ground there is even a medieval tower and a huge, silent tank as a “cathedral of water”. <\/span>For architect Mattia Acito, who is responsible for the project, this is the “true authentic historical city museum”, a real terminal from which, at the upcoming festivities, you can go for excursions targeted in the bowels of the Sassi. <\/span>Meanwhile, the fever of celebrations seems to have shaken definite-
\n<\/span>The mattresses. <\/span>Along the whole Sasso barisano fervo the works, restore the ancient houses excavated in the tufa, clean up grottoes and cisterns from rubble. <\/span>Until a few months ago nobody wanted to return to the Sassi, now an apartment costs as much as in Manhattan. <\/span>And new activities for the valorisation of rock are blooming. <\/span>The same Laureano in collaboration with a cooperative, Ipogea, and with the patronage of the commune, has created a center of rock and water civilizations. <\/span>It will be a sort of archive-multimedia lab on civilizations, restoration techniques, environmental enhancement projects of international rocky sites. <\/span>In short, Matera intends to resuscitate on his Sassi by merging the myth of caves and that of the computer. <\/span>It will take months, maybe years. <\/span>But Laureate the greatest satisfaction has it already
\n<\/span>Obtained: to see Matera beat the Unesco flag.<\/span><\/p>\n

“on line troglodytes”<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Underground and computer museums: here is the Loire model<\/span><\/p>\n

“Troglo c’est chic”, the troglodytes of fashion. <\/span>This is the new password that goes from this year to the tourist agencies of Loire, one of the most renowned holidaymakers in France. <\/span>And it is understood: last year, in the area of \u200b\u200bSaumurois (300 km of underground galleries and of
\n<\/span>Caves inhabited since the Middle Ages) for the first time the rock tourism has exceeded the number of visitors of the Castelli. <\/span>The rock of these parts does not possess the cultural richness of the Sassi of Matera. <\/span>But in the face of the abandonment of the French heritage
\n<\/span>Show that around the rock can develop a flourishing eco-tourism that blends technology and imaginary pre-historic, enterteinment and culture imagery. <\/span>Take a high-speed train and from Paris, in just over an hour, you are among the new troglodies. <\/span>People courteous, industrious, from the managerial point of view. <\/span>No wet and dark caves. <\/span>We start off with a chain of troglodian restaurants, of about 200 hotels, motels and residences built in cozy and cave-like caves. <\/span>To the visitors of D\u00e9nez\u00e9-sous Dou\u00e9, a spectacular tufa quarry today,
\n<\/span>Terranea dating to the Middle Ages, is also a touch of Spielberg, with multicasting on the most spectacular rock caves in the world, live music and concerts. <\/span>At the conference on the rock that took place last month at Saumour, there were talk of underground eco-museums, underground tourism exploitation and even a computer network. <\/span>Eureka, who co-operates in real time all the European rock sites: Matera and Cappadocia, Petra and Paterna (Spain), D\u00e9nez\u00e9s-sous Dou\u00e9 and Vateamontea. <\/span>There was some euphoria among the participants: “We are
\n<\/span>Convinced that the Troglodyte Europe of that Politics will be built first “.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
