Travel Size Sardinian

Wednesday, May 15, 2009, and the L III and IV have traveled on a visit to the City of Bono, with accompanying teachers Hector Martinez Renzo and I used to integrate the experience field of regional history programs of the respective classes. Although they are separated by more than five hundred years of history, converge and intertwine in this town located near the center of Sardinia, the southern border of the region Goceano. Bono has been known mainly in Sardinia for being the birthplace of regional Angioy hero, the undisputed protagonist of the last stages (and perhaps the first) three-year period of the Revolutionary Sardo. However, no far from the town you can admire the remains of one of the most famous strongholds in Sardinia Giudicale: the impregnable castle of Burgos, who throws down a hill over the valley bristling with the detached gaze of an old giant that has seen literally run the story at his feet.

below my personal travel guide:

Bono arrive in late morning, after a long bus trip, during which we saw campidanese the plains give way to the mountains of Central Sardinia, in the same way a beautiful sunny day was followed by the mist and the morning mist.

The first impression of Bono does not deviate from what anyone could be seeing for the first time a typical country of the north island: perched on a mountain top from the blunt, irregularly dotted with ups and downs, almost without a pattern, dominated by a pink color, neutral on the facades and walls of houses.

The bus stops in what is likely is the city's main square, a fountain, young and old people sitting on benches surrounding a beautiful mural to hit our eye not just fallen from ladders. ricomporci few minutes from the trip and we set off, led by Professor Martinez, towards the Town Hall, where we will be short-received by the mayor of the city. The time to do some group photos, of course, arousing enjoy the looks of the inhabitants, and we are invited to make our first entry into the palace and in the meeting room of the City Council then. Inside we immediately notice a big bust dell'Angioy, which, from one corner of the room, keeping an eye on everything and everyone. The mayor, Peter Molotzu, joins us a few minutes after our entrance, and gives us a welcome speech by Bono concise and effective. It is not the first time that the mayor works with our institution, and in particular with Professor Martinez: classes in the past students have had the opportunity to make our own experience. It feels like a sort of understanding between the two, and the first citizen does not disappoint by following the speech uttered by one of our partner refreshments, in line with the hospitality of which the Sardinians always boast.

After the refreshing salute the mayor and his staff to visit the country. Under the midday sun we walk the streets and alleys of Bono, before reaching the birthplace del'arcinoto Giomaria. Before our eyes, there is a mausoleum or a road sign led us to the goal. The building is anonymous, simple, and houses a medical clinic. Only a marble plaque reminds passers-by and confirm to us that we face at the first house dell'Angioy. Undoubtedly, the professor explains, this is due to the fact that throughout the period between the flight of Angioy (1796) and the end of the kingdom of Sardinia, he was not considered by the government and institutions, if not an outlaw, a traitor, a robber, a revolutionary or even not at all worthy to receive any praise to the memory, which only persistence was considered even dangerous because of the democratic and libertarian ideas that embodied the revolutionary. We are holding a few more minutes before the clinic, took some pictures. Not too many though, the gray plaster cracked and the building is not the best imaginable background for a class photo.

continue on the same road before, going up gradually until we find ourselves in a clearing adjacent to a medium sized church. We knowledge of the priest, who crossed for the event, and greets us with a friendly voice and indefinable accent. The facade of the church is Romanesque, with obvious influences of Pisa, but fails to attract our eyes on him for more than a few seconds. Before her it opens a beautiful view of the town and surrounding areas, one of the nicest we've got to see Bono. This is a background suitable to release the stubborn instinct of self-celebration of travelers!

After a short rest in the yard, back retracing the same steps as the first leg. arrive until near the Town Hall until a church, the less flashy before, that he was in a place when a curious local tradition. Every year is to be rolled down the hill a big pumpkin, symbolizing the flight of the troops who had attacked Sardinian-piemontasi Bono with the worst intentions, probably in revenge to Angioy, only to then be put to flight by the vehement reaction of the people. The stairs in front of the church, still photographs of the theater group, was again possible to enjoy a beautiful view of the urban and rural landscape at the same time.

Soon after we returned to the coach, not a little eager to appease the hunger just completely damped by the local party. In ten minutes the bus took us out from the town, at the height of the campaign Goceano, where we waited for a typical farm, complete with livestock included. We eat well, too well. On the other hand does not happen very often to enjoy traditional foods such as sheep stew, main course of dinner, whose role as a "solo" Gourmet has been undermined by his very valid supporting actors, such as prosciutto, coppa, or the gnocchi the appetizer of fried vegetables. When we get up from the table are captured by the typical afternoon drowsiness, to the point of persuading teachers to leave a few minutes of rest in the vicinity of the farm. A prolonged rest would gladly, were it not for the overly zealous pace of the hands clock. Time is short, we have yet to visit Burgos and castle. We come once again, on board the bus that took us from Cagliari, and as we go down, not a wall to welcome us, but a wall.

A stone wall, to be precise. More than fifty meters high, which is in addition to more than one hundred providential that the vehicle has devoured along spirals ever closer. We are on a column of hard natural stone, on top of which waits lazily at the ancient stronghold. We walk with difficulty climbing a curved, but no less challenging, which leads us to a sunny courtyard, where as a young expert guide us into the story very accurately, secrets and not always edifying stories that have been in the castle of Burgos venue designed as long-lasting. Half an hour of explanation that we do not just tired, in spite of the interesting speech of the guide, which has generally successful in keeping the pressure, but there is nothing against the scorching sun that tires the body and mind sluggish. After the historical introduction we proceed to the last, and by far the most challenging stretch of the climb, using stone steps installed (providentially) not too long ago. Somebody says, somebody is playing, but certainly all thinking it: we can really understand why only once in eight hundred years the castle and its inhabitants have suffered the decisive defeat by the besiegers. Who could have, and especially wanted to challenge the mountain experimenting with grueling climb, however, risk of being killed in the strict sense of the primitive but effective means of defense?

Once on top we see up close the imposing tower of the castle, we note with surprise and its nothing short of excellent condition. It seems too good to be true. Indeed, as expected, it is not. What our eyes see is only a coating of masonry, built recently to protect the real tower with its solid structure, already in ruins, was periodically plagued by dozens of lightning. The castle seems to have had a positive influence on local folklore: was born in the centuries the image of a dark castle, struck by lightning every time the sky roars, the scene of murder and treason, allegedly haunted by tormented souls to the bearer of evil already his hapless passer-by who would venture out at night on treacherous slopes, pillars of the stronghold. Well, not the best place for a picnic. Instead, the only people on the mountain but us kids, teachers and guidance were a young couple intent on eating a picnic lunch while sitting comfortably on a bench naturally. It must have been foreigners, for sure!

After visiting the castle, arduous climb back the same as before, now transformed into an equally rigorous Heraclitean steep descent. The risk, especially for the less energetic, is not so much fell down, but rather to the end of the proverbial pumpkin Bono. We interrupt the descent of the houses just starting to appear on the mountainside. E 'Burgos, the town built next to the castle. We penetrate even through very narrow streets, parked cars mysteriously meeting, in spite of the roads literally on a human scale. Within minutes we arrive at the Museum of Burgos, two floors and five exhibitions. It is not the Louvre, but undoubtedly his dignity! After the guided tour of the museum, back to the bus that will take us back to Cagliari, fatigue in the legs but temporary unwelcome legacy of the castle and the ups and downs Burgos, the consciousness of having spent a busy day, informative and enjoyable certainly more lasting legacy of the trip.

Report on the experience of the class in the State

How many of us have wondered why in the classical history textbooks is not present in Sardinia? Or, what role he served as our island in the past? To try to answer these questions continually, the State Archive of Cagliari, Office of the Ministry of Heritage and Culture. The goal is to put this structure is mainly to introduce the "Sardinian size" that is the history of institutions sardines, providing users a variety of documents that are stored and inventoried in order to facilitate their consultation. In Sardinia there are four state archives, one for each province, although the most robust and the most important is undoubtedly that of Cagliari, the city was for many years the capital of Regnum Sardiniae, reign that began with the conquest Catalan-Aragonese island and then went on seamlessly with English rule, a short period of time followed by the Austrian government domination of Savoy from 1720 until 1848 that the so-called "perfect fusion" with Piedmont.
But does it really work as a State Archives? What kind of documents are in an archive? This institution is maintained, in addition to the papers produced by the offices of the state in post-unification period, documentation of the events pre-unification, that is all that has been produced by the institutions that have governed politically (governors and viceroys) or administered the island ( Prosecutors real Inspector General) shall also include the organs of administration of justice. Taking into consideration the period of Savoy in terms of our research, there was an office called the Royal Secretary of State and War, based in Cagliari, who had the task of drafting the documents relating to the affairs of the island's political and legal jurisdiction Viceroy in connection with the secretariats and departments in Turin. This continuous exchange of statements has resulted in a substantial documentation that has been described in the 'Inventory of R. Secretary of State written by Francesco Loddo Canepa (1887 - 1966) who was a university professor and director of the State of Cagliari. Should not think of this as a simple inventory list of events, but such a description and analysis that helps us to understand and analyze all the archival material of the bottom of R. Secretary of State: the documents received, business documents, original documents and acts in a copy. On this basis we can also say that in Turin, at the State Archives, will be kept for a certain period in addition to that an archive of Cagliari. A
'other important institution for the historical reconstruction of the revolutionary period is that of the Royal Audience of Sardinia, created in 1564 as the highest court of the Kingdom with civil and criminal responsibilities he held until 1848, and over time also took political and administrative powers and between the exercise of Viceroy, in case of vacancy. And 'this is the role of fundamental importance that after April 28, 1794 (expulsion of the viceroy and officials from the Piedmont Sardinia) when, for the first time, becomes the highest governing body of the island with a revolutionary act in some way because, as was permitted by the laws of the Kingdom, it has never happened before the Royal Audience claim to exercise that authority, most importantly in this case, after the dismissal of the Viceroy. In fact, it happened that during the eighteenth century had died two viceroy in charge but it was done following the usual practice under which the king appointed, along with the new viceroy, his representative, in case of absence or death, delivering a sealed envelope Regent at the Royal Chancellery. This change in government can also verify and demonstrate through their actions that we were: in fact there is a "hole" in the inventory of R. Secretary of State where Loddo Canepa noted that for the period from April 30 to 24 settembre1794, governing the Royal Audience with authority Viceroy, the dispatches that are missing in the archive of the judiciary.
Very important was also the role played by Parliament in this period, an institution that had characterized the legal period of Aragonese and English records of proceedings of the parliament deals with claims of Stamenti military, ecclesiastical and royal were presented to the Viceroy and then approved by the sovereign. As well as institutions in general, the meetings of the displacements were very important since January 1793 when the military decided to displacements Autoconvocate commitment to fund new enrollments and procuring supplies and equipment to counter the French threat. We can remember, just talking about the military displacements, the Marquis Francesco Maria Asquer, lord of Flumini who financed the cost of the fight against the French, this information shall not be general in nature and relate to specific events, can be told and have firsthand experience with also to private archives, such as family Asquer, which are donated or deposited in the State.
All this information about the size of Sardinia could not have been passed down to our time if there had been a structure of this type is ready to collect and preserve their importance. The visit to the Archives was certainly very educational experience that has enabled us, for me and my class (4L A. Pacinotti high school) to learn more about the origins of our island, and thanks to the archivist Josephine Catani , who was our guide on this journey through eighteenth-century Sardinian size, to really understand the cultural validity of this institution. So I invite anyone who wanted only to know more about the history of Sardinia, to go to the Archives where you will be satisfied and maybe even surprised by the explanations provided to him.
