Paesaggi collettivi Il silenzio delle proprietà collettive delle Valli del Germanasca nel Piano Paesaggistico Regionale del Piemonte

Abstract

Communal land management is a structural element of the Alpine Mountains. In the Valleys of the Germanasca (TO), collective management has been carried out for centuries by means of extensive private shared ownership. These properties materialize the interrelations between the community and territory as identified by the first article of the European Landscape Convention. This contribution puts the theme of collective management of the highlands in the perspective of the recognition, by the urban tools regarding the theme of Landscape, of the “interrelations” between anthropic and natural elements, and in this case with respect to the Piedmont Regional Landscape Plan.

Vittorio Maragliano (1878 −1944) in the history of European medicine: Grand master and pioneer of Italian radiology

“…27 Moreover, not only did the “pulmonary radiological record” prove to be of great functional efficacy in tubercular diseases, it was also used, under the name “igography”, to detect possible lesions or malformations of the respiratory apparatus and even of the mediastinum, heart and great vessels. 28 Thus, it was considered to be a truly pioneering intervention, so much so that it was adopted by the Italian Schools, albeit belatedly in 1921, almost 10 years later! - An insightful observer of the effects of “Röntgen rays” on the human organism, in 1910 Maragliano was the first to realize that the same radiation dose elicited different biological effects according to whether it was administered in a single session or fractionated in several sessions over successive days.…”
