Trento, which kind of future? Perspectives for a resilient city by Matteo Aimini

“…Cities and their surroundings are excellent case studies and inexhaustible testing grounds as they require constant adaptations and revisions; mutable environments where it is possible to experiment new approaches and paradigm changes, in order to demonstrate that it is possible to turn the direction towards less disturbing and more profitable scenarios from the environmental and socio-economic standpoints. In this sense, the research task of the Trento Urban Transformation Research Unit (TUT) is to review the perspectives of the Trento Urban Plan according to public and private stakeholder, to record and propose alternative scenarios towards a more Resilient direction. …”

Susan Howe’s Caesurae by Andrew Eastman

“…The paper looks into the ways in which Susan Howe’s poems, specifically in her recent collection Debths, depend on and work with the line unit, use and abuse our sense that poems appear in typographic lines. Three examples from Debths look at problems raised by the various ways in which Howe scissors the line, arguing that the line is a place where something happens to language, a frame for a caesura, a space where a silence can take place—as seen in the book’s title. …”

The random Wigner distribution of Gaussian stochastic processes with covariance in S0(ℝ2d) by Patrik Wahlberg

“…We prove that if the covariance function belongs to the Feichtinger algebra S0(ℝ2d) then: (i) the Wigner distribution and the ambiguity function of the process exist as finite variance stochastic Riemann integrals, each of which defines a stochastic process on ℝ2d, (ii) these stochastic processes on ℝ2d are Fourier transform pairs in a certain sense, and (iii) Cohen's class, ie convolution of the Wigner process by a deterministic function Φ∈C(ℝ2d), gives a finite variance process, and if Φ∈S0(ℝ2d) then W∗Φ can be expressed multiplicatively in the Fourier domain.…”

Olivotourism as a tourist-cultural product and its influence on the dynamics of territories by Eunice Lopes, Pedro Martins

“…The practice of olive tourism is strongly linked to the tourist and cultural development of more natural and rural areas, contributing to the appreciation and conservation of the unique identity of places, through the promotion of traditional activities that can be experienced by tourists. In this sense, product development strategies based on olive oil and olive trees are relevant to enhance knowledge of the product itself and its connection with local history and traditions. …”
