E LE CAVE CONTINUANO A FUNZIONARE. INDUSTRIA ESTRATTIVA, GRANDI OPERE E TUTELA DEL PAESAGGIO LUBRENSE NEL PRIMO DOPOGUERRA

Written by  Giuseppe Pignatelli Dic 05, 2019

From the early 20th century, and for fifty years over, the Massa Lubrense coast – at the far end of the Sorrento peninsula – hosted many limestone quarries that have quickly taken the place of the traditional extractive activities. Pushed by the growing demand for raw materials, necessary for the great public works envisaged by the law regarding the Economical Development of Naples (1904), and those financed by the Neapolitan High Commission (1925-‘36), the quarry industries have irreparably modified the morphology of large portions of the coast between the bays of Puolo and Recommone. Therefore, it is not a coincidence that the first oppositions into the destruction of this extraordinary natural context will arise from Capri, where in July 1922 was organized the first Landscape Conference by the island mayor, Edwin Cerio. The conference, a local and national extraordinary event at the same time, allowed to reflect on the recent Italian law regarding the Protection of Natural Beauty, laying the foundations for the development of a true 'national landscape conscience'. Thanks above all to Cerio and to the Massa Lubrense mayor, Salvatore Cerulli, in the following years will be at last listened the condemnations by Norman Douglas, Gino Doria and, later, Roberto Pane, contributing so to the progressive closure of the lubrense quarries by the mid-century.

    I don't know whether it's just me or if everybody else encountering issues with your
    blog. It looks like some of the written text within your content are running off the screen.
    Can somebody else please provide feedback and let me know if this is happening to them as well?
    This could be a problem with my internet browser because I've
    had this happen before. Kudos

    First of all I want to say superb blog! I had a quick question which I'd like to ask if you don't mind.
    I was curious to know how you center yourself and clear your mind
    prior to writing. I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts in getting
    my ideas out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it just seems like the first
    10 to 15 minutes are usually lost simply just trying to figure out how to
    begin. Any suggestions or hints? Thanks!

    Howdy great blog! Does running a blog such as this take a great deal of work?
    I have very little expertise in coding however I was hoping to start my own blog in the near future.
    Anyhow, if you have any ideas or techniques for new blog
    owners please share. I understand this is off subject
    however I just had to ask. Cheers!
