Aldo Rossi, A Scientific Autobiography
City as collective memory
One can say that the city itself is the collective memory of its people, and like memory it is associated with objects and places. The city is the locus of the collective memory. This relationship between the locus and the citizenry then becomes the city's predominant image, both of architecture and of landscape, and as certain artifacts become part of its memory, new ones emerge. In this entirely positive sense great ideas flow through the history of the city and give shape to it.

“How to create a lively, safe city” is a summary of the main lessons that Jacobs wants to transmit to readers. On a map of Jacobs’ Greenwich Village are overlayed the four factors that, according to Jacobs, define a vibrant city: lively streets, continuous network of street life, open spaces that join instead of separate, and a composition of neighbourhoods with distinctive identities. These strategies are explored through sketches and diagrams, always using New York City as a reference.
The Death and Life of Great American Cities (Jane Jacobs, 1961) is a provocative, remarkable book that was instrumental in challenging the Modernist conceptions about urban planning and architecture. In the book, Jacobs analyses the characteristics of popular neighbourhoods in the United States, covering topics such as safety, footpaths, parks, identity, functions and diversity, and proposes ideas to create safe, lively and interesting cities.

Day 2 - Centrale Montemartini and the Quirinal Hill
We got to meet the architect in charge of the conversion of the former electric power station of Centrale Montemartini into a sculpture museum. The juxtaposition of industrial and antique heritage really made one realise the incredible, complex history of Rome.
