Hi all !
-
-
Reinhold Kriegler has reminded me that Giorgio Mesturini has put his
article in Internet: thank you Reinhold !
-
While the years pass my
memory is as the shadow of a style on a sundial: it vanish
quickly!

From http://web.tiscali.it/meridianemesturini /

you have to click on Articoli e Pubblicazioni (Articles and
publications) then

if you click on VIAGGIO
ATTRAVERSO LE MERIDIANE ITALIANE A CAMERA OSCURA (A trip through the
Italian sundials in a dark room )
you may download the text of the article, while if you click on

shorter than mine) with the table of the
