Abstract:
In China, geographical indications (GIs) are seen as certificates or collective trademarks, as well as representations of quality agricultural products, and are important in revitalizing the countryside. Therefore, a combined qualitative and quantitative method was employed to examine the operational practices of GIs at the relatively micro-level of the municipality in order to identify their effectiveness and challenges in rural revitalization and propose more targeted optimization suggestions. Pengshui Miao and Tujia Autonomous County, located in the Wuling Mountains in southeastern Chongqing, is an excellent example of the positive impact GIs can have on rural development, boasting the highest number of GI trademarks in the region. Despite the large number of GIs in Pengshui, there are several issues that need to be addressed, including low brand awareness, lack of product enhancement, and poor market competitiveness. To overcome these challenges, there must be a shift from a quantity-based to a quality-based approach to GI trademark declarations. This requires promoting the transformation of traditional agriculture into modern agriculture, investing in rural infrastructure, and improving the efficiency and quality of GI product production. By doing so, individuals in the local community will be able to reap the benefits of GI trademarks, improving their income and standard of living. In view of the fact that administrative divisions and cultural regions overlap, it is important to promote interregional cooperation and encourage declarations of GI trademarks in neighboring counties. This will help to preserve the area’s local cultural heritage and promote its heritage through GIs. By taking a targeted approach to GI trademark declarations and promoting cooperation between regions, Pengshui, and other rural communities can maximize the benefits of GIs and support sustainable rural development.

Abstract:
The Mecsek Mountains, with a maximum of 680 m high elevations, are surrounded by low rolling countryside and lowlands. In this area 98 caddisfly species were found. An endemic taxon, Chaetopteryx rugulosa mecsekensis Nógrádi was also found here. Populations of some species have survived far from their continuous distribution area. The only Hungarian population of Plectrocnemia minima Klap. lives here, the population actually being endangered. The occurrence of this species shows zoogeographical connections with the Balkans, while the presence of two other species here (Synagapetus krawanyi Ulmer and Rhyacophila hirticornis McL.) represents their southeastemmost occurrence within their range in the Alpin area. Further eleven species have isolated occurrences as they do not live in the surrounding lowlands and low rolling countryside.

Abstract:
Abstract The paper discusses Radu Muntean 2021 film, Î ntregalde focusing on the representation of rural landscapes and the encounter between different social classes. The film marks multiple displacements within the director’s oeuvre, epitomized as “the chronicler” of the middle class in contemporary Romanian cinema. The spatial displacement from middle class urban spaces towards mountain and rural areas and the shift from the distant picturesqueness of landscape to the experience of landscape as dwelling, as inhabited and sensed environment mediated through textural images enables unsettling embodied, affective encounters both with the natural environment and between different social classes. In this way, the film addresses the question of class differences and lays bare the socio-economic inequalities between the urban middle class and the countryside without reducing rural characters to clichéd figurants in a picturesque or sombre countryside decorum. The film’s critical reflection on a form of occasional humanitarian aid and middle class philanthropy does not relativize the concept of charity, altruism and help but rather points to the growing gap of social inequalities (and the crisis of care) in the context of contemporary capitalism.1

Abstract:
Abstract This article analyses explorations of social and environmental problems and solutions in artistic representations of the Indonesian countryside and rural society, culture, and wisdom. It focuses on urban–rural creative collaborations that combine traditional culture and knowledge with modern technology and media, such as drones and the Internet, to empower local communities, promote artistic innovation, and enhance environmental sustainability. It seeks to demonstrate that contemporary art and media strengthen the urban–rural network and the accessibility and exchange of creative ideas and information. At the same time, the author argues that some of the causes of cultural conflict and anthropogenic disaster are embedded in forms of audio-visual representation itself. The display of urban–rural encounters in art festivals and social media can even instigate new forms of surveillance, and power and knowledge hierarchies, or reinforce regimes of consumer culture, partially responsible for the very problems the audio-visual representations and collaborations seek to address.

Abstract:
As a reflection of Latvian identity, the country’s rural landscapes are a living embodiment of both natural and cultural heritage, contributing to quality of life for local communities and serving as a magnetic pulling factor for international tourists. Traditional farmsteads (viensētas) are perceived as symbolic spaces which have developed gradually, especially since the 19th Century, through annual cycles of farm work alongside extensive farming. Yet their existence is threatened by the impact of transitional changes such as depopulation, globalisation, the non-competitive nature of traditional farming models, and changes in society and the lifestyle of young people. Many abandoned farmsteads are disappearing under large areas of cropland or forest, and some newly built private houses do not have a connection with the traditional rural landscape. The aim of this study is to explore the way that perceptions of farmsteads and rural landscapes have changed over time within local communities. This is done by comparing representations of countryside landscape ideals in the media from 1920 to 1940 and perceptions of farmsteads as an element of countryside landscapes within local rural communities today (<12 % of the population of Latvia lived on a farmstead in 2019). The findings show that in the period when most people lived in the countryside, a particular kind of idealised rural landscape was often visually represented in the mainstream media, strengthening stereotypes about symbolic landscapes. These concepts are still strongly rooted in the perceptions of current rural inhabitants and there was consensus among respondents about the elements which are associated with high-quality rural landscapes. Although the daily routines of the traditional farmstead today have been changed by a number of factors and many elements of the rural landscape have lost their functionality, symbolism — including the iconic image of separate family farmsteads — helps to maintain a continuing metanarrative of national identity, creating nostalgic ties which lead many to have a preference for living in the countryside, holding perceptions about the availability of various ecosystem services next door which will improve their quality of life.

Abstract:
The goal of this article is to enquire into how state and non-state actors configured tourist versions of countryside. We propose to identify and examine, through three initiatives oriented by the Sub-secretary of Tourism of the Province of Buenos Aires, the National Institute of Agricultural Technology and private owners of agrarian productive establishments: who are participating in the construction of a tourist rurality; what elements [places, subjects, practices, versions of the past] are they selecting; what kind of representations are they creating and disseminating to guide tourism consumption of countryside. Our analysis leads us to consider that different actors build diverse versions of tourist pampas countryside, evocating practices and narratives about the agricultural past and the present.

Abstract:
For decades, the city has created food models by requiring the countryside to meet the growing demand with increasingly more homologated crop reconversions and increasingly vast and competitive farms. The current acceleration of the land concentration process and the dramatic experience of the COVID 19 pandemic have, however, forced us to redefine the city-country relationship, which has been called into question for some years now in various FAO (Food and Agriculture Organization) and EU (European Union) documents. Based on the GECOAGRI-LANDITALY (Comparative Geography of Agricultural Areas European and non-European) survey itinerary, a proven tool for reading local peculiarities, the authors show how easy it is to recognize which farmlands can best fulfil the role of guaranteeing food safety and protecting the quality and typicality of traditional foods. The final proposal is to start a new agri-food policy that no longer starts from the demand formulated by the city but, reversing the direction of the old relationship, it starts from the availability of products offered by the countryside to re-educate consumption and promote the sustainability of agricultural practices.

Abstract:
La poussée touristique chinoise s'est faite, et se fait encore, sur un modèle "quantitatif" aujourd'hui. Pourtant, des choses changent, en particulier dans les espaces ruraux et montagneux, avec l'accent mis par l'État chinois sur la revitalisation rurale et le nombre croissant d'une nouvelle génération de touristes de la classe moyenne. Cette thèse propose de s'interroger si un nouveau "modèle touristique chinois" émerge, à partir du district de Songyang, un territoire rural et montagneux en retard de développement situé dans la province parmi les plus riches et les plus innovantes. Il s'agit d'un modèle de mise en tourisme "qualitatif", éloignant de l'ancienne logique standardisée autour du tourisme qualifié comme "quantitative" ou "de masse". Ce travail met l'accent tout d'abord sur le rôle fondamental de l'État central et sur la construction de goûts "stéréotypés" dans l'esthétique paysagère des touristes afin de souligner le contexte politique, culturel et esthétique positif dans le développement du tourisme rural. Les rôles des investisseurs extérieurs et des architectes, en tant que porteurs de valeurs et de regards urbains, dans la mise en tourisme et dans la construction de l'image territoriale, ont été abordés. Néanmoins, nous remettons en question des hébergements ruraux de qualité et des architectures comme révélateurs du territoire et comme leviers du développement. Notre travail analyse ensuite les pratiques touristiques des touristes chinois dans la campagne. Nous nous interrogeons aussi sur la "ruralité" et l'"authenticité" recherchées par les touristes. L'intérêt de ce travail est également de montrer la valeur exemplaire et expérimentale du modèle de Songyang à d'autres zones rurales confrontées à des difficultés de développement
Tourism development in China has been, and still is, based on a "quantitative" model. However, the situation is changing, especially in rural and mountainous areas, with the Chinese government's focus on rural revitalization and the increasing number of new generations of middle-class tourists. This thesis proposes to examine whether a new "Chinese tourism model" is emerging, using Songyang County as the subject of this study, a rural and mountainous region located in one of the wealthiest and most innovative provinces. This is a "qualitative" model of tourism development, moving away from the "quantitative" or "mass" logic of standardization that has been described around Chinese tourism in the past. This thesis begins by emphasizing the fundamental role of the Chinese national government and analyzes the construction of "stereotypical" tastes in tourists' landscape aesthetics to highlight the active political, cultural and aesthetic context in rural tourism development. The role of outsider urban investors and architects, as bearers of urban values and perspectives, in tourism and territorial image building has been discussed. However, we question the role of high quality rural accommodation and architecture as levers for the revelation and development of the territory. This thesis then analyzes the tourism practices of Chinese tourists in the countryside. We also question the "rusticity" and "authenticity" sought by tourists. This work is also relevant to show the exemplary and experimental value of the Songyang model to other rural areas facing development difficulties

This work aims to identify the representations of countryside in songs classified as moda de viola . This type of music began to run on broadcast radio and recorded on discs at the beginning of the decade of 1930 and has always been associated with the rural way of life, more specifically the inhabitants of rural areas limited to the area of caipira culture, which includes parcels Southeast, Central West and Southern regions of Brazil. To observe the representations of the rural in these songs, it was necessary, firstly, set the moda de viola category and map the context in which it is embedded, noting the analysis and historical surveys on the subject, conducted by professionals from different areas. Based on the results obtained in this step has been proposed a methodology to analyze the letters the songs. The option to study this subject was see the letter of songs as literary pieces and use elements of the proposed methods for analysis of the literature Antonio C?ndido and Pierre Bourdieu. From this perspective were done surveys of social factors that can influence the compositions, namely the public, the trajectory of the composers and the context of production. Once seen these aspects was held reading of the songs and identification of representations of the countryside.
Este trabalho tem como objetivo identificar as representa??es do rural presentes nas m?sicas classificadas como moda de viola. Este tipo de m?sica passou a ser veiculado nas emissoras de r?dio e gravado em discos, no in?cio da d?cada de 1930, e sempre associado ao modo de vida rural, mais especificamente aos habitantes das ?reas rurais circunscritas ? ?rea da cultura caipira, que comporta parcelas das regi?es Sudeste, Centro-Oeste e Sul do Brasil. Para se observar as representa??es do rural nessas m?sicas, foi necess?rio, em primeiro lugar, definir a categoria moda de viola e mapear o contexto onde ela est? inserida, observando a an?lise e levantamentos hist?ricos sobre o tema, realizados por profissionais de diferentes ?reas. Com base nos resultados obtidos nessa etapa, foi proposta uma metodologia para an?lise das letras as m?sicas. Optou-se por tratar as modas de viola como pe?as liter?rias e utilizar elementos dos m?todos propostos para an?lise de literatura de Ant?nio C?ndido e Pierre Bourdieu. A partir desta perspectiva foram feitos levantamentos dos elementos sociais que podem influenciar as composi??es, a saber: o p?blico, a trajet?ria dos compositores e o contexto de produ??o. Uma vez observados esses aspectos, foi realizada a leitura das modas e a identifica??o das representa??es do rural.

Abstract:
Ce travail porte sur les représentations des campagnards et des paysans dans les mentalités des Romains de l’époque républicaine, en se fondant sur l’étude de textes littéraires. Dans l’ensemble des œuvres latines de Plaute à Virgile, les ruraux donnent lieu à des images multiples et contradictoires, passant tantôt pour des rustres ridicules, tantôt pour des citoyens modèles. Nous montrons comment, malgré une telle diversité, ces représentations engagent une vision d’ensemble cohérente, liée à différentes conceptions de l’identité romaine. Une étude préalable du champ lexicographique couvrant les différentes dénominations de l’habitant des campagnes et une mise au point historiographique soulignent la place essentielle qu’occupaient encore les ruraux dans la vie sociale, économique et politique de l’Vrbs aux deux derniers siècles de la République. Il apparaît ensuite que le stéréotype du rustre, susceptible d’être analysé en termes de marqueurs, constitue un véritable type théâtral dans la Néa, lequel influence d’autres textes où son utilisation dans l’invective se mêle parfois à un discours métatextuel. Car le rusticus ridicule, bien que constitué en contre-modèle de comportement, est paradoxalement associé à une identité romaine mise en débat. C’est elle qui entre aussi en jeu dans les discours des agronomes faisant l’éloge de la ruralité. Le stéréotype du bonus agricola, incarnation d’un mos maiorum rural, renvoie à des représentations collectives et à une valorisation axiologique de l’activité agricole – distincte du travail physique et de l’élevage – autant qu’à des prises de position idéologiques personnelles en faveur de la rusticitas
Based on the study of literature, this work deals with the representations of the countrymen and peasants in the mentalities of Romans in the Republican era. In all the Latin books from Plautus to Virgil, the countrymen are depicted trough multiple and contradictory images, in which they are made out to be either ridiculous uncouth people or model, ideal citizens. We show that, in spite of such a diversity, these representations reveal a coherent global vision of the peasantry which is linked to different conceptions of Roman identity. A preliminary study of the lexicography encompassing the various denominations of the countryside inhabitants and a historiographical focus underline the essential place that the rural still had in the social, economic and political life of the Vrbs in the last two centuries of the Republic. It then comes out that the stereotype of the uncouth man, which could be analysed in terms of “markers”, is in the Nea a real theatrical type. These type influences other texts, in which it is used for the invective, sometimes mixed to a metatextual speech. Indeed, even if the ridiculous rusticus is a counter-model of behaviour, he is paradoxically associated to a debatable Roman identity, which also comes into play in the agronomists’ speeches praising rurality. The bonus agricola stereotype embodying a rural mos maiorum, points out to collective representations and to an axiological valorisation of the agricultural activity – unlike physical work or breeding – as much as to personal ideological stances favouring rusticitas

Abstract:
Depuis le début de l’histoire du tourisme en Chine, la montagne est toujours un espace fréquenté assidûment par les touristes chinois. Pour les Chinois, elle possède toujours des images différentes qui sont associées à certaines valeurs spécifiques. L’évolution de ces représentations de la montagne comprend également l’évolution de la notion du paysage, qui a émergé depuis le Ve siècle en Chine. Les Chinois commencent à avoir certains goûts esthétiques sur le paysage de la montagne et à l’apprécier. Cette notion a évolué et qui est influencée par les différentes activités humaines, dont le tourisme fait partie. L’une des premières pratiques touristiques dans les montagnes chinoises est justement la contemplation du paysage. Ces représentations de la montagne ne sont pas figées. Surtout avec l’émergence des nouvelles pratiques touristiques comme la randonnée, les goûts esthétiques des Chinois sur la montagne ont changé ce qui, en retour, fait également naître les nouvelles représentations. Par conséquent, cette recherche porte sur une réflexion autour de l’interaction entre les représentations de la montagne et l’évolution des pratiques touristiques, pour appréhender comment les représentations de la montagne favorisent la naissance des pratiques touristiques en Chine, quelles sont les valeurs attribuées et comment cette nouvelle évolution du tourisme contribuera peut-être à terme, à bouleverser le système des représentations de la montagne en Chine
Since the beginning of the history of tourism in China, the mountains have always been a place visited by Chinese tourists. For them, the mountains are not an unknown place ; they have always had various images of them linked to some special values. This led to various representations of the space among the Chinese society. With the evolution of these representations, one of the most representative forms, the landscape, has also come up since the fifth century in China. The Chinese people started to learn how to appreciate the beautiful scenery of mountain with aesthetic taste. The landscape as a spatial representation has evolved and it has also influenced the human being’s activities, just like tourism. One of the first tourist practices is contemplation of mountain landscape. These representations of mountains are not always fixed. Some new touristic activities like hiking have changed Chinese people’s aesthetic tastes Thus, this paper focuses on the interaction of the representations of mountains, especially the mountain landscape and the evolution of tourism practices, : how the representations of the mountains occur the beginning of touristic practices, which values they are attached to and how the evolution of tourism brings changes to the mountain representations in China

Diplomová práce Vztah obyvatel k místu 5 Abstract This thesis entitled "Relationship of inhabitants to their home place in Eastern and Western Ore Mountains (Krušné hory)" focuses on the issue of a relationship the current inhabitants have to the area they live in. This relationship is defined on the basis of several distinct theoretical areas. The first portion of the thesis covers the basic terminology key for understanding the relationship of inhabitants to their home place. It deals with the definition of the term "home place", its character and ways in which it may be perceived. It also contemplates the term "settlement" and focuses on "identity" which is further defined as biographical and regional identity. Identity may be studied in the context of a relationship to the countryside, local community and historical awareness. The paper also characterises the Sudetenland region and provides the historical context necessary for a comprehensive outlook at the area researched without marginalizing the issue of nationalism. The practical portion employs qualitative methodology to process eighteen semi-structured interviews with representatives of elites (mayors, businessmen and members of associations) of the selected are of the Eastern and Western Ore Mountains. Subsequent analyses point to identical and...

Abstract:
AbstractThe chapter investigates representations of popular amusements in Finnish newspapers, periodicals, and fiction from the 1870s to the 1910s. Besides the merry-go-rounds, panoramas and exhibitions of exotic animals attracting crowds from the countryside, the entertainers included sellers of broadside ballads. While the latter type of trade was predominantly in the hands of Finnish-speaking men, the barrel organ grinders came from other ethnic backgrounds. The focus of this chapter is on depictions of sellers of songs and on the ways in which they were seen by people who bought their commodities. The period has been called “the golden age of broadside ballads”, during which the culture of creating, selling, and consuming (singing, reading) these texts belonged to the unschooled common people, while the educated writers repeatedly attacked these activities.

Abstract:
Landscapes vary considerably in scale and kind. At one end are landscaped gardens and parks, carefully designed and maintained, at the other are wilderness areas of ice and snow, impenetrable forests, craggy mountains and valleys, raging rivers, or even landscapes on the moon or on Mars. In between are landscapes more or less the product of human activity, if not specifically designed as such: farmland, forest plantations, cultivated terraces for growing rice or tea, and urban landscapes with city parks, children’s playgrounds, skyscrapers, industrial zones, derelict buildings. If these landscapes belong in the real world of matter and time, never far behind have been human depictions of them, under the broadest category of landscape paintings or poems. Human fascination with landscapes, across time and cultures, has led to a repeated interplay between landscapes themselves, how they are perceived and valued, and representations of them. One example might be the growing popularity in the nineteenth century of tourism to remote countryside such as the Lake Distract in England, influenced by Romantic poets like William Wordsworth. Or the influence of the imaginary landscapes by the artists Claude Lorrain or Nicolas Poussin in the seventeenth century on English landscape garden design in the eighteenth century, including the creation in the latter of mock ruins and visually striking settings. Yet another might be the thought from Oscar Wilde that ‘nature imitates art’, by which he (partially) meant that once we get used to looking at, for example, Impressionist landscape paintings, perhaps by Claude Monet, we come to see the real thing as bearing an Impressionist appearance. Also, the common expression ‘picturesque’ applied to a landscape suggests that enjoying a landscape of a certain kind bears a strong similarity to enjoying a landscape painting representing that kind. Of course, the landscapes that attract painters or poets are not always of the benign picturesque kind. The term ‘sublime’ is used to describe both the rugged, dangerous, awe-inspiring landscapes of towering mountains and thundering waterfalls, but also dramatic, often Romantic, depictions of these, by the likes of the painter Caspar David Friedrich or the poets Percy Bysshe Shelley or Samuel Taylor Coleridge (see Sublime, the).

Abstract:
The Casali and the Architectures of the Campagna Romana in the Late Middle Ages. Archeaological and archive sourcesThe territory of the Roman countryside in the Late Middle Ages was extended from the city of Rome to 40 miles in the Suburb, between the coasts of the Tyrrhenian Sea, the Albani Mountains, the Lepini Mountains and the course of the Tiber. In the twelfth century various events started in this territory which will greatly influence its appearance until today: the castra arise, as forms of aggregation of a territory enclosed by defensive elements; burgi and villae, small fortified centers; and the casali, special production farmhouses characterized by the presence of a tower and other defensive, residential and productive structures. The militarization of the landscape began for reasons partly linked to the general instability of the period. Despite the basic differentiations in the forms of the population as in the functionalities themselves entrusted to the circumscribed territory, the forms of the basic architecture remained the same: the tower, the walls, albeit in variety in terms of technique, magnificence and complexity. This research can be tackled thanks to a direct analysis of the architecture of the towers which characterize the Roman countryside, occasionally accompanied by other elements, like the walls. The results of this study can be compared with the information reported in medieval sources, in which a specific language is used to describe the architecture and the characteristics of every form of human anthropization. The analysis of the differences and affinities between these territorially structures and the comparison with the contemporary urban architectures, allows to recreate a general picture of the architecture in the Roman countryside in the Low Middle Ages.

Abstract:
The worship to Sky, Earth and Mountains served in ancient times as the basis for the emergence of priesthood, shamanism, tengrianism, as well as for other cults and beliefs. The results of archaeological research of ancient sacred objects in Altai indicate that the origins of these beliefs go back to ancient times, can be traced back to the Early Bronze Age, but were especially pronounced in the Pazyryk culture. At the foot of three significant Altai mountains (Belukha, Sarlyk, Kurkurebazhi) there are large mounds in Tuekta, Bashadar, Berel and Pazyryk. Archaeological, geographical and ethnographic studies of ancient cult monuments at the foot and on the slopes of the Altai mountains are of great importance for the study of objects associated with sacred representations of the Sky and Mountains.

Abstract:
Публикуются новые материалы по наскальным изображениям знамен тюркской эпохи, найденным на территории Казахстана. Всего известно 15 местонахождений петроглифов, на которых представлено около 70 изображений знамен. Выделяются 6 основных сюжетов со знаменными символами. Выявляется устойчивая связь таких петроглифов в изученных археологических ландшафтах со стационарными зимними стоянками средневековых кочевников, а также с доминирующими вершинами гор. Выделяются три типа знаменных изображений, определяются датировка и этнополитическая принадлежность некоторых серий петроглифов. Выясняется область наибольшей концентрации наскальных изображений со знаменами в ЧуИлийских горах, в Семиречье, как политическом центре западных тюрков, тюргешей и карлуков в тюркскую эпоху. Предполагается связь подобных символов-маркеров с местами кочевых ставок политической элиты кочевников Семиречья тюркской эпохи. The paper presents new materials on the rock images of the banners of the Turkic period found on the territory of Kazakhstan. In total, there are 15 known locations of petroglyphs, which represent about 70 images of banners. There are 6 main themes with banner symbols. Our analysis reveals strong linkages of petroglyphs in the archaeological landscapes under investigation with the stationary winter sites of medieval nomads, as well as with the dominant mountain peaks. We identified three types of banner images and determined the dating and ethnopolitical affiliation of a series of petroglyphs. The region of the greatest concentration of rock images with banners is determined to be the Chu-Ili mountains in Semirechye, as the political center of the Western Turks, Turgeshes and Karluks in the Turkic period is determined. A link between such marker symbols and places that were permanent residences (horde) of the political elite of nomads in Semirechye in Turkic period is suggested.

Abstract:
As the Industrial Revolution took place and steam driven machines emerged in the 18th century, the Industrial Age began and cities became the core of industrial and populational growth. That phenomena occurred as the job opportunities and quality of life increasingly developed away from the countryside, with the arrival of electricity and inventions such as the light bulb, thanks to important people like Sir Joseph Swan and Thomas Edison. The city, therefore, can be looked in two different ways: the urban space, occupied with tangible elements, and the social environment, filled with urban practices and cohabitation. An essential matter in many disciplines, the city is a recurrent topic for researchers who seek to understand this phenomenon of human activities. The history behind the rise of the cities show tell us about the creation of urban spaces and its manifestations, functions, transformations and the complexity inherent to the various typologies in cities all over the world. The city is a scenario full of overlapping messages that characterize the accessibility and urban communication. This is defined by Nojima (1999) as the result of the interaction between social representations and the scenario where they occur. It is through the interpretation of these messages that are manifested in the urban design accessible from cities (streets, buildings, gardens, squares, furnitures), that the individual defines the elements that identify their city. This paper discovery the concepts of city and their accessibility relationships with urban practices - design of urban activity - that directly influence the implementation of urban furniture and, above all, the importance given to them by the population, with regard to its true functions (adequacy, accessibility, ergonomics, identity and others) of their uses and appropriations. It is important for the study also understand the urban furniture relation with the project of cities - is to complement the public space or the way how interferes the urban landscape. It is need to understand how society is shown in front of herself and the world itself that surrounds and what are the affective devices that make city living when connected - through the use - therefore, this is the powerfull forces of individuals and community , space practices created by the tactics of the population to allow theirs ambiance, wellness, safety and comfort, sensations often perceived by the set of elements that constitute the urban furniture of cities.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.4995/IFDP.2016.3291

Abstract:
Digital and representation: the second line and the forgotten castle of FiumedinisiThe Belvedere Castle of Fiumedinisi (ME) belongs to that historical heritage of Sicily characterized by abandoned and forgotten military architecture. Along the Ionian coast the defensive problem has been particularly felt over time, due to the proximity of the Turkish coast, the Middle East and the African one. The first defensive line was the coastal one, defined by principals placed on the sea in a strategic position for direct control of the coast. They were part of this group: the Maniace castle of Syracuse, that of Augusta, of Brucoli, of Catania, of Acicastello, the Tocco of Acireale, Schisò in the territory of Giardini, Capo Sant'Alessio, the Saracen Tower of Roccalumera, Capo Grosso in Ali , San Salvatore in Messina. Along the eastern side of the Peloritani mountains from Calatabiano to Messina, the island's defensive strategy also included a second line of fortifications, which controlled a more distant horizon from their position. These include the castle of Calatabiano, Taormina, Castelmola, Forza d’Agrò, Savoca, Fiumedinisi, Scaletta Zanclea, Santo Stefano di Briga, Matagrifone. Among them, the Belvedere castle of Fiumedinisi, at a critical distance from the village, so as to be in a state of neglect, among those listed is that which is in the worst conditions. In stark contrast to the dignity and history of the site and territory of Fiumedinisi, dating back to the Greek period. In this work we propose the survey of the castle with digital, photogrammetric technologies, Structure From Motion (SFM) and dense matching, to arrive at a 3D documentation and graphic drawings, considering that to date there are no significant scientific surveys and representations of this abandoned fortress.

Abstract:
Mountains and other topographic features with variable elevation provide benefits to residents and visitors but may also impose barriers to travel and restrict economic development. ERS researchers develop two national representations of relative topographic variability for census tracts: the Area Ruggedness Scale characterizes overall ruggedness and the Road Ruggedness Scale characterizes ruggedness along roads. To understand variation of characteristics by terrain ruggedness ERS researchers analyze population, population density, and income across road ruggedness categories, rurality, and regions in the United States. ERS researchers find that as land becomes more rugged, population density decreases, more people live in rural locations, and more rural residents live in low-income census tracts. Ruggedness is distinct from rurality but in locations that are both highly rugged and rural, unique challenges may arise.
