Sono passati più di quarant'anni dalle ricerche della sezione lombarda dell'Istituto Italiano dei Castelli su "Il sistema fortificato dei laghi lombardi in base alle loro vie di comunicazione", presentate nel quadro di un importante convegno tenutosi nel 1974. In quell'occasione vennero introdotti definitivamente nel dibattito storiografico in Italia i concetti di "geografia militare" e "castellologia". Oggi nuove acquisizioni cartografiche e documentarie, unitamente a contributi metodologici e disciplinari aggiornati, impongono una rilettura dei risultati riguardanti l'area dei laghi lombardi. Per tutta l'età spagnola, questi veri e propri "mari interni" del Nord Italia rappresentarono per il ducato di Milano insostituibili vie di comunicazione e importanti confini (variabili nel tempo). Per la loro difesa furono predisposti complessi sistemi difensivi che venivano mantenuti e integrati, secondo necessità, con il contributo dei principali ingegneri militari del periodo. A supporto dell'analisi, da un punto di vista strategico, delle logiche insediative che hanno guidato la realizzazione di tali sistemi difensivi, il testo è corredato da modelli 3D originali delle aree considerate. ; More than forty years have passed since the Lombardy department of the Italian Institute of Castles has studied "The fortified system of lakes in the Lombardy region based on their communication routes" (1974). This research definitively introduced the concepts of "military geography" and "castle studies" ("castellologia" in Italian) in the historiographical debate in Italy. Today, new cartographic and documentary acquisitions, together with updated methodological and disciplinary contributions, necessitate a reinterpretation of the results regarding the lakes of Lombardy. During the entire Spanish age, these real "internal seas" of North Italy represented irreplaceable communication routes and important borders (vary in time) for the dukedom of Milan. For the protection of these borders, there were complex defensive systems which were maintained and integrated, as needed, with the contributions of the principal military engineers of the period. Since the artefacts that made up these systems will be best understood from a strategic point of view, original 3D models of the region support the historiographical analysis.

Lo scritto giunge per primo a ricostruire gli anni della formazione e della iniziale attività a difesa delle frontiere del Ducato milanese di Ambrosio Borsano (1633-1708), esponente di spicco della folta schiera di ingegneri militari e cartografi italiani a servizio della Corona di Spagna. Di Borsano è in particolare la Gran Mapa de Cataluña del 1687 (http://www.bne.es/es/AreaPrensa/noticias2015/1210-borsano.html), che da ultimo è stata oggetto di una digitalizzazione ad alta definizione. Lo studio, condotto con il prof. Francesc Nadal Piqué del Departament de Geografia Humana dell'Universitat de Barcelona (UB), è destinato, nelle intenzioni dell'Institut Cartogràfic i Geològic de Catalunya, a confluire, opportunamente sviluppato, in una prossima edizione a stampa della Gran Mapa.

En este artículo se examina una etapa crucial en la vida de Ambrosio Borsano, uno de los principales ingenieros militares de la Europa de la segunda mitad del siglo XVII: la de su formación como cartógrafo militar. Una etapa sobre la que se disponía de contadas y dispersas referencias. En el mismo se intenta resolver, en primer lugar, la cuestión de su nacimiento y el marco familiar milanés en el que se educó. Después, se describen las actividades militares que llevó a cabo, entre 1648 y 1658, en el norte de Italia, durante las cuáles conoció al que terminaría siendo su maestro: Gaspare Beretta, ingeniero mayor del ejército español en el Estado de Milán. A continuación, se analiza la formación que recibió como cartógrafo militar de Beretta y que es preciso situarla en el marco de la escuela de ingeniería militar de Milán. El artículo se cierra explicando el último capítulo de su etapa de formación: el de su traslado a la península Ibérica en 1661 para luchar contra los independentistas portugueses.

The cancer burden is rising globally, exerting significant strain on populations and health systems at all income levels. In May 2017, world governments made a commitment to further invest in cancer control as a public health priority, passing the World Health Assembly Resolution 70.12 on cancer prevention and control within an integrated approach. In this manuscript, the 2016 European Society for Medical Oncology Leadership Generation Programme participants propose a strategic framework that is in line with the 2017 WHO Cancer Resolution and consistent with the principle of universal health coverage, which ensures access to optimal cancer care for all people because health is a basic human right. The time for action is now to reduce barriers and provide the highest possible quality cancer care to everyone regardless of circumstance, precondition or geographic location. The national actions and the policy recommendations in this paper set forth the vision of its authors for the future of global cancer control at the national level, where the WHO Cancer Resolution must be implemented if we are to reduce the cancer burden, avoid unnecessary suffering and save as many lives as possible.
