    Content: Every civilization has developed different forms of knowledge and techniques to manage and exploit water, an essential element for human life, but also to defend itself from the threats that can derive from it. In preindustrial times, the need to manage such a precious commodity led to the development of different technologies, the construction of infrastructures, the creation of special judiciaries, but it also fuelled conflicts between subjects who claimed privileged or exclusive access to water resources. In addition, the risks posed by the proximity of waterways or lake basins often led societies to develop prevention techniques and practices. This range of issues is at the heart of the essays collected in this volume, which examine various medium and large cities located in Central Western Europe - from the Rhine Valley to the Iberian Peninsula, from Paris to Palermo - between the fourteenth and the nineteenth centuries
    Content: Ogni civiltà ha sviluppato saperi e tecniche per gestire e sfruttare l’acqua, elemento essenziale per la vita umana, ma anche per difendersi dalle minacce che possono derivare dalla convivenza con essa. In età preindustriale, la necessità di gestire un bene così prezioso ha condotto allo sviluppo di tecnologie, alla costruzione d’infrastrutture, alla creazione di magistrature apposite, ma ha anche alimentato conflitti tra soggetti che pretendevano un accesso privilegiato o esclusivo alle risorse idriche. Inoltre, i rischi derivanti dalla prossimità di corsi d’acqua o di bacini lacustri hanno spesso indotto le società a sviluppare tecniche e pratiche di prevenzione. Questo spettro di problemi è al centro dei saggi raccolti in questo volume, che studiano varie città medie e grandi dell’Europa centro-occidentale – dalla Valle del Reno alla Penisola iberica, da Parigi a Palermo – tra il XIV e il XIX secolo

    Content: The volume includes a significant part of the findings of an interdisciplinary and international research project on disasters that occurred in the territories under the Bourbon monarchies between the 18th and early 19th centuries. It is composed of twelve essays that explore the strategies and practices by which institutions and societies sought to manage, mitigate and prevent the catastrophic effects of eruptions, earthquakes, floods, famine and epidemics. The articles address several territories, that are geographically distant and widely different from each other - from the western Mediterranean to Central and South America - between the Age of Enlightenment and the Age of Revolutions. Although these areas were ruled by members of the same dynasty, the political and administrative structures and legal systems were different, and the emergency management strategies were dissimilar too. The project involved three research groups, based in European and Latin American universities, coordinated by Jean-Philippe Luis, Armando Alberola and Domenico Cecere. The volume is dedicated to the memory of Jean-Philippe Luis

I dodici saggi che lo compongono esplorano le strategie e le pratiche attraverso cui istituzioni e società cercarono di gestire, mitigare e prevenire gli effetti catastrofici di eruzioni, terremoti, inondazioni, carestie ed epidemie, in territori geograficamente lontani e diversi tra loro - dal Mediterraneo occidentale all'America centrale e meridionale - tra l'età dei Lumi e quella delle Rivoluzioni. Sebbene queste aree fossero governate da membri della stessa dinastia, l'organizzazione politico-amministrativa e i sistemi giuridici erano differenti e diverse erano anche le strategie di gestione dell'emergenza.

    Content: In the accounts of disaster of the early modern period, it seemed as though the heroes were missing, replaced by the anthropomorphic rage of the natural elements. Nevertheless, it did sometimes happen that singular figures emerged from the blurry mass of the people and their dramatic anecdotes, and sprang into action to address the emergency. Sometimes they were saints, sometimes local institutions: the former were invoked to mediate with heaven to placate divine anger through miracles, and the latter to manage the catastrophe and provide aid and relief. The chapters in this volume reflect on this composite phenomenon of salvific actions, especially when they assumed the character of heroic gestures suspended between reality and fiction, human and divine, ordinary and extraordinary

    Content: Disasters have always been a key theme in artistic creation and visual language, as confirmed by the prevalence and persistence of images depicting the unleashing of the forces of nature and their consequences on cities and the landscape. In particular, volcanoes, the dispensers of death and desolation but also of sublime scenes, have constantly inspired painters and engravers, also soliciting the curiosity of those who wished to understand how flames, ash, and fiery stones could pour from the bowels of the earth. In the early modern age, the reactivation of volcanoes in the Phlegraean and Vesuvian areas, after long centuries of dormancy, marked the beginning of a new interest among European readers in the phenomena they produced. Having sensed that new spaces were opening up in the publishing market, both local and international, many bookseller-printers began to publish a large number of tales, treatises, collections of verse and pictures relating to eruptions, which were going to satisfy the tastes and interests of a varied public composed of naturalists, archaeologists, scholars, cultured and wealthy travelers who covered the Italian peninsula in the course of their grand tour, but also of more modest onlookers. On such varied production this volume, arising from the exhibition Eruzioni di carta. Four Centuries of Volcanoes in Print, offers multiple points of view through a body of works dating from the second half of the 16th to the early 20th century
    Content: I disastri sono da sempre un tema fondamentale nella creazione artistica e nel linguaggio visivo, come confermano la diffusione e la persistenza di immagini che ritraggono lo scatenamento delle forze della natura e le loro conseguenze sulle città e sul paesaggio. In particolare, i vulcani, dispensatori di morte e desolazione ma anche di scene sublimi, hanno costantemente ispirato pittori e incisori, sollecitando inoltre la curiosità di chi intendeva comprendere come dalle viscere della terra potessero fuoriuscire fiamme, ceneri e pietre infuocate. All’inizio dell’età moderna il riattivarsi dei vulcani nell’area flegrea e vesuviana, dopo lunghi secoli di quiescenza, segnò l’inizio di un nuovo interesse dei lettori europei verso i fenomeni da essi prodotti. Avendo intuito che si aprivano nuovi spazi nel mercato editoriale, tanto locale quanto internazionale, molti librai-stampatori cominciarono a pubblicare una gran quantità di racconti, di trattati, di raccolte di versi e di immagini relativi alle eruzioni, che andavano a soddisfare i gusti e gli interessi di un variegato pubblico composto da naturalisti, archeologi, eruditi, da colti e ricchi viaggiatori che percorrevano la penisola italiana nel corso del loro grand tour, ma anche da più modesti curiosi. Su tale variegata produzione questo volume, scaturito dalla mostra Eruzioni di carta. Quattro secoli di stampa sui vulcani, offre molteplici punti di vista, attraverso un corpus di opere databili dalla seconda metà del XVI agli inizi del XX secolo

    Content: In times of emergency, communication plays a crucial yet problematic role. While this may seem obvious nowadays, even before the emergence of modern media, the methods of gathering, elaborating and transmitting information had a significant influence on the perception of risk and decision-making processes. The book examines how government bodies and different social actors handled emergencies in the Hispanic Monarchy, from the late sixteenth to the early nineteenth centuries. It features case studies from the Hispanic Monarchy’s European, American and Asian territories, exploring the narrative strategies used in news-sheets and gazettes, the impact of disasters on information networks, how they interacted with political and social dynamics, and the effect of conflicting interpretations of extreme events
