GLI SPAZI RURALI | N° 5 1992 | LE BUSSOLE

Volume 5 of Le Bussole – Tools for Understanding the City (November 1992), authored by Carmine Guarino, examines the residual agrarian landscapes within the expanding urban fabric of Naples. This first part focuses on how rural spatial systems persist or adapt in tension with city growth, highlighting vineyards, orchards, and garden plots embedded in peri-urban contexts. With maps, photographs, and commentary, the work explores the cultural, ecological, and spatial dimensions of agrarian continuity, calling attention to Naples' layered rural–urban identity. A unique visual and analytical tool to understand landscape transformations in metropolitan settings.
