This volume gathers over sixty scholarly contributions dedicated to Stella Casiello, a central figure in the Neapolitan school of architectural restoration and a leading voice in the national debate on the conservation of the built heritage in Italy. Structured into four sections, the work reflects the breadth and consistency of the scholar’s commitment, integrating historiographical rigor, civic dedication, and a constant focus on the ethical dimension of the design project.
Her diverse scientific interests, her involvement in major preservation and managerial issues as well as in complex restoration programs and building sites throughout a long academic career, are explored by highlighting her contribution to thematic areas ranging from theoretical and historical-critical aspects to the specific challenges of twentieth-century heritage restoration and the expansion of the discipline’s boundaries toward the city and the landscape. Consequently, these themes are deeply connected to current challenges in the conservation of the built environment.
Enriched by a biographical profile and a complete bibliography of Stella Casiello’s works, the book serves not only as a tribute to an illustrious scholar, but also as a collection of studies grounded in the conviction that restoration is an act of culture and civilization, aimed at handing down the material and spiritual memory of the historic built environment to the future. It stands as a valuable testimony to how academic research can and must become a form of “militancy” in the defense of our cultural heritage.
