Description: Roma: Gangemi, 2011. 24cm., pbk., 47pp. illus., most in color. Italian-English text. Summary: Within the Mediterranean, a closed sea 3.500 km long, the history of Italy has developed over thousands of years. The ancient Greeks thought of the Mediterranean as an organic whole, with a life of its own. Fernand Braudel considered it as a unit made up of innumerable small regions, each one different from the other. The basic structural unit of the Mediterranean historical landscape is the city, which dates back at least as far as the second millennium BC. Mediterranean cities are characterised by extraordinarily continuous settlement, deeply-rooted historical memory and a great capacity for change, which gives them a special cultural identity. This is the distinctive area where most of the CNR projects, centred on three strategic areas for the protection of cultural heritage are carried out: methods and techniques for studying and improving archaeological sites, research and innovative technologies for the sustainable rebirth of the built heritage, techniques for the preservation and communication of memories.
