Erice (Tp) - Musica Folk con Sandro Cascio
Erice is a historic town and comune in the province of Trapani in Sicily, Italy.Erice is located on top of Mount Erice, at around 750m above sea level, overlooking the city of Trapani, the low western coast towards Marsala, the dramatic Punta del Saraceno and Capo San Vito to the north-east, and the Aegadian Islands on Sicily's north-western coast, providing spectacular views.The ancient Greek name of Erice was Eryx (Έρυξ in Greek), and its foundation was associated with the eponymous Greek hero Eryx. It was not a Greek colony, as the Phoenicians founded it, but was largely Hellenized. It was destroyed in the First Punic War by the Carthaginians, and from then on declined in importance.Eryx was conquered by Aghlebids in 831 and was renamed as Cebel Hamid (In Western sources Gebel Hamed, meaning Mountain of Hamid). It was ruled by Arabs until the Norman conquest. In 1167 the Normans renamed it Monte San Giuliano. It was known as Monte San Giuliano until 1934.In the northeastern portion of the city there are the remains of ancient Elymian and Phoenician walls indicating different stages of settlement and occupation in antiquity.There are two castles that remain in the city: Pepoli Castle, which dates from Saracen times, and the Venus Castle, dating from the Norman period, built on top of the ancient Temple of Venus, where Venus Ericina was worshipped. According to legend, the temple was founded by Aeneas. It was well known throughout the Mediterranean area in the ancient age, and an important cult was celebrated in it. In his book On the Nature of Animals, Aelian writes that animals chosen for sacrifice would voluntarily walk up to the altar to be killed.A cable car (funivia) runs from the outskirts of Trapani to the town of Erice. The cablecar closes from mid January to mid March.Erice hosts important scientific meetings at the Ettore Majorana center, organised by the controversial astrophysicist Antonino Zichichi
Erice è un comune italiano di 28.463 abitanti della provincia di Trapani in Sicilia.Il centro cittadino, di 512 abitanti, è posto sull'omonimo Monte Erice, mentre la maggior parte della popolazione si concentra nell'abitato di Casa Santa, contiguo alla città di Trapani. Il nome di Erice deriva da Erix, un personaggio mitologico, figlio di Afrodite e di Boote, ucciso da Eracle.Secondo Tucidide Erice (Eryx, Έρυξ in greco antico) fu fondata dagli esuli troiani, che fuggendo nel Mar Mediterraneo avrebbero trovato il posto ideale per insediarvisi; sempre secondo Tucidide, i Troiani unitisi alla popolazione autoctona avrebbero poi dato vita al popolo degli Elimi. Fu contesa dai Siracusani e Cartaginesi sino alla conquista da parte dei Romani nel 244 a.C.In antico, insieme a Segesta, che parrebbe di fondazione coeva, era la città più importante degli Elimi, in particolare era il centro in cui si celebravano i riti religiosi.Dal 1963 è sede del Centro di cultura scientifica Ettore Majorana, istituito per iniziativa del professor Antonino Zichichi, che richiama gli studiosi più qualificati del mondo per la trattazione scientifica di problemi che interessano diversi settori: dalla medicina al diritto, dalla storia all'astronomia, dalla filologia alla chimica. Per questo alla cittadina è stato attribuito l'appellativo città della scienza.

INFOVIDEO, Erice: il Centro Majorana apre al pubblico con quattro mostre
ERICE, 1 luglio 2019 - Con l’inaugurazione della mostra dedicata allo scultore Umberto Mastroianni, ha preso il via ad Erice il progetto del Centro Majorana, diretto dal prof. Antonino Zichichi, per la straordinaria apertura al pubblico degli Istituti Wigner-San Francesco e Blackett-San Domenico. Quattro le mostre allestite nei due spazi che, luogo di dialogo per scienziati e premi Nobel internazionali dal 1963, diventano contenitori d’arte e di sapere condiviso con la moltitudine di viaggiatori, villeggianti e residenti del pittoresco borgo medievale in provincia di Trapani. Particolarmente suggestivo il panorama mozzafiato che si gode dalla “Lecture Hall” del San Domenico, spazio intitolato al premier svedese Olof Palm, dove lo sguardo si spinge nel blu, fino al massiccio del monte Cofano e alla punta di San Vito lo Capo. A comporre l’inquadratura è l’installazione di Paola Lo Sciuto dedicata all’ippocampo, la cui coda contiene nei vari rapporti delle misure la sequenza di Fibonacci.
All’inaugurazione di sabato 29 giugno - che ha anche visto la consegna dei diplomi ai migliori fra i 104 allievi del 57° corso della Scuola Internazionale di Fisica subnucleare del Centro Majorana - hanno preso parte Gerardus ‘t Hooft (premio Nobel e Direttore della Scuola di Fisica Subnucleare del Centro), il vescovo di Trapani, Pietro Maria Fragnelli; il Comandante provinciale della Guardia di Finanza, Pasquale Pilerci; Gianni Mauro (assessore comunale ai Lavori Pubblici); Don Piero Messana (Parroco di Erice); Paola Molinengo Costa (Centro Studi Umberto Mastroianni), gli artisti Paola Lo Sciuto e Carlo Gavazzeni e Lorenzo Zichichi (Il Cigno GG Edizioni, coordinatore del progetto delle mostre). Era presente l’intero corpo docente della Scuola e fra questi Horst Wenninger e Sergio Ferrara (rispettivamente: già direttore e membro del senjor staff del CERN di Ginevra) e il fisico Luisa Cifarelli (Presidente del Museo Storico della Fisica “Enrico Fermi”).
I due istituti saranno visitabili fino al 3 novembre 2019, tutti i giorni, dalle ore 10 alle ore 19. I visitatori potranno usufruire dell’Erice Pass, ticket cumulativo che integra l’accesso ai due istituti della Fondazione Majorana con le quattro mostre, al consueto percorso fra i monumenti principali di Erice.

SICILIA - ERICE, la Città di Venere
Fondata, secondo Tucidite, dagli esuli troiani (gli antichi Elimi), Erice sorge arroccata a 750 m. di altezza sul monte omonimo che domina la città di Trapani, offrendo un panorama mozzafiato dell'intera costa da Marsala a Capo San Vito, compreso l'arcipelago delle Egadi con le isole di Favignana, Marettimo e Levanzo. Abitata da Fenici, Greci e Romani fu, per questi ultimi, sacro luogo di culto della Venere Ericina, la prima dea della mitologia romana a somiglianza della greca Afrodite. Oggi la cittadina conserva quasi intatto il suo impianto urbanistico medievale con monumenti di grande interesse fra i quali la Chiesa Matrice (XIV sec.). Dal panoramico Giardino del Balio, con il normanno Castello Pepoli ristrutturato nel XIX sec., si accede al famoso Castello di Venere (XII sec.) una tipica fortezza medievale a strapiombo sulla vallata, costruito sul luogo dell'antico santuario della dea Ericina. Dal 1963, su iniziativa del grande scienziato trapanese Prof. Antonino Zichichi, Erice è sede del Centro di Cultura Scientifica Ettore Majorana che richiama gli studiosi più qualificati del mondo per la trattazione scientifica di problemi che interessano diversi settori: dalla medicina al diritto, dalla storia all'astronomia, dalla filologia alla chimica. Per questo le è stato attribuito l'appellativo di Città della Scienza.

SUMMARY
=======
Sicily (Italian: Sicilia [siˈtʃiːlja]; Sicilian: Sicilia) is the largest island in the Mediterranean Sea. It is an autonomous region of Italy, in Southern Italy along with surrounding minor islands, officially referred to as Regione Siciliana.
Sicily is located in the central Mediterranean Sea, south of the Italian Peninsula, from which it is separated by the narrow Strait of Messina. Its most prominent landmark is Mount Etna, the tallest active volcano in Europe, and one of the most active in the world, currently 3,329 m (10,922 ft) high. The island has a typical Mediterranean climate.
The earliest archaeological evidence of human activity on the island dates from as early as 12,000 BC. By around 750 BC, Sicily had three Phoenician and a dozen Greek colonies and, for the next 600 years, it was the site of the Sicilian Wars and the Punic Wars. After the fall of the Roman Empire in the 5th century AD, Sicily was ruled during the Early Middle Ages by the Vandals, the Ostrogoths, the Byzantine Empire, and the Emirate of Sicily. The Norman conquest of southern Italy led to the creation of the Kingdom of Sicily, which was subsequently ruled by the Hohenstaufen, the Capetian House of Anjou, Spain, and the House of Habsburg. It was finally unified under the House of Bourbon with the Kingdom of Naples as the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies. It became part of Italy in 1860 following the Expedition of the Thousand, a revolt led by Giuseppe Garibaldi during the Italian unification, and a plebiscite. Sicily was given special status as an autonomous region on 15th May 1946, 18 days before the Italian constitutional referendum of 1946. Albeit, much of the autonomy still remains unapplied, especially financial autonomy, because the autonomy-activating laws have been deferred to be approved by the parithetic committee (50% Italian State, 50% Regione Siciliana), since 1946.
Sicily has a rich and unique culture, especially with regard to the arts, music, literature, cuisine, and architecture. It is also home to important archaeological and ancient sites, such as the Necropolis of Pantalica, the Valley of the Temples, Erice and Selinunte.

SUMMARY
=======
Molecular gastronomy is a subdiscipline of food science that seeks to investigate the physical and chemical transformations of ingredients that occur in cooking. Its program includes three areas, as cooking was recognized to have three components: social, artistic, and technical. Molecular cuisine is a modern style of cooking, and takes advantage of many technical innovations from the scientific disciplines.
The term molecular gastronomy was coined in 1988 by late Oxford physicist Nicholas Kurti and the French INRA chemist Hervé This. Some chefs associated with the term choose to reject its use.

- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Molecular gastronomy is a subdiscipline of food science that seeks to investigate the physical and chemical transformations of ingredients that occur in cooking. Its program includes three areas, as cooking was recognized to have three components: social, artistic, and technical. Molecular cuisine is a modern style of cooking, and takes advantage of many technical innovations from the scientific disciplines.
The term molecular gastronomy was coined in 1988 by late Oxford physicist Nicholas Kurti and the French INRA chemist Hervé This. Some chefs associated with the term choose to reject its use.
