Sommario/riassunto

Focusing on the history of scientific and technological development over recent centuries, the book is dedicated to the history of telecommunications, where Italy has always been in the vanguard, and is presented by many of the protagonists of the last half century. The book is divided into five sections. The first, dealing with the origins, starts from the scientific bases of the evolution of telecommunications in the nineteenth century (Bucci), addressing the developments of scientific thought that led to the revolution of the theory of fields (Morando), analysing the birth of the three fundamental forms of communication – telegraph (Maggi), telephone (Del Re) and radio (Falciasecca) – and ending with the contribution made by the Italian Navy to the development of telecommunications (Carulli, Pelosi, Selleri, Tiberio). The second section, on technical and scientific developments, presents the numerical processing of signals (Rocca), illustrating the genesis and metamorphosis of transmission (Pupolin, Benedetto, Mengali, Someda, Vannucchi), network packets (Marsan, Guadagni, Lenzini), photonics in telecommunications (Prati) and addresses the issue of research within the institutions (Fedi-Morello), dwelling in particular on the CSELT (Mossotto). The next section deals with the sectors of application, offering an overview of radio, television and the birth of digital cinema (Vannucchi, Visintin), military communications



(Maestrini, Costamagna), the development of radar (Galati) and spatial telecommunications (Tartara, Marconicchio). Section four, on the organisation of the services and the role of industry, outlines the rise and fall of the telecommunications industries in Italy (Randi), dealing with the telecommunications infrastructures (Caroppo, Gamerro), the role of the providers in national communications (Gerarduzzi), the networks and the mobile and wireless services (Falciasecca, Ongaro) and finally taking a look towards the future from the perspective of the last fifty years (Vannucchi). The last section, dealing with training and dissemination, offers an array of food for thought: university training in telecommunications, with focus on the evolution of legislation and on the professional profiles (Roveri), social and cultural aspects (Longo and Crespellani) as well as a glance over the most important museums, collections and documentary sources for telecommunications in Italy (Lucci, Savini, Temporelli, Valotti). The book is designed to offer a compendium comprising different analytical approaches, and aims to foster an interest in technology in the new generations, in the hope of stimulating potentially innovative research.

Sommario/riassunto

En la segunda mitad del siglo xiii se concibe en torno a Alfonso X un nuevo arte de historiar. Nutrido por un conocimiento exhaustivo de las tradiciones historiográficas con incidencias culturales en el Occidente medieval, está tan eficazmente adaptado al ideal monárquico que, a pesar de los profundos disturbios con los que se enfrentará la realeza castellana, el modelo alfonsí seguirá rigiendo la técnica de los historiadores y configurando la visión histórica de las élites españolas hasta finales de la Edad Media y más allá. Este volumen recoge las actas de un seminario coordinado por Georges Martin en la Casa de Velázquez en 1995. En él se pretende caracterizar dicho modelo y seguir sus cambios y permanencias desde su fundación hasta los sumarios del siglo xv, pasando por las distintas versiones de las obras patrocinadas por el Rey Sabio (concisa, enmendada después de 1274 y crítica), la historiografía neoalfonsina de finales del xiii(versión sanchina toledana de la Estoria de España y Crónica de Castilla) así como las continuaciones de Fernán Sánchez de Valladolid y del Canciller Ayala.
