The conservation and enhancement of Built and Landscape heritage
The analysis and enhancement of complex systems as heritage in historic landscape necessarily require a synthesis of the multidisciplinary approach so often evoked in theory, whilst so seldom displayed on real study cases. Therefore, the authors proposal consists on merging different scales and levels of the analysis tools and especially the criteria for the multiscale revitalization of neglected spread historic fabric (both of rural and urban settlements) in remarkable landscape. The authors display the proper disciplinary methods in the first part of the book (“The historical landscapes and settlements: fundamentals of the analysis”) and decline it on a common case study, for testing the robustness of theories in the cultural clash of different approaches. All the contributions are useful in themselves, and acquire more value thanks to the common convergence to overcome their local application that could appear focusing on Mondonico village. The study case is Mondonico village, an outstanding remain of the recent past in Lecco lake area. Its unicity consists in many features, typical of 18th-19th century villages in the mountain, that keep intact after almost 70 years of partial neglect. The relationships between the ancient center and the surrounding breathtaking landscape (natural and built) are still mostly perceivable, despite the unconscious, rushed appreciation of few tourists passing by. The local community, living in Dorio since early 20th century, still refers to the old village for few agricultural activities on the mountain slope and for the cultural/religious reasons due to the presence of the old church, still in function. Nevertheless, the pressure of exploitation for new construction of the surrounding landscape is rapidly increasing, due to the exceptional view on the lake and mountains and the improvement of the existing facilities/connection with the lakeshore. As an example, a recent stock of in line hosing, with brilliant colors and contemporary features, rises at half slope, along the ...
