Culture, nature, flavoursTrieste, a Mitteleuropean city at heart, overlooking the sea and backed up against the Karst plateau, is also a city of culture and literature, of nature and leisure time, a crossroads of different flavours, histories, and peoples since time immemorial. “The only place – wrote James Joyce, who spent over fifteen years here in the early 20th century – where I could ever write”. ScienceThirty research and advanced training centres, over 4,000 resident foreign researchers from all over the world, 37 people employed in the research sector for every 1,000 inhabitants: these are some of the most significant numbers underpinning the definition of Trieste as a “city of science and knowledge”. |
