    Abstract:
    In this study we analyse the project for the Monument to the Resistance in Cuneo by Aldo Rossi based on the comments on this work made by the architect himself in «A Scientific Autobiography» (1981) and one of his ‘quaderni azzurri’ (1972). Our hypothesis is that the Cuneo project is a work that realises an idea of ritual to which the architect had already made reference in «The Architecture of the City» when asserting that monuments are elements that preserve legends when they take on certain ritual forms. The monument is also a fundamental work that helps us to understand Rossi’s first projects relating to «realism», a category that focuses debate on the nature of architecture in post-Second-World-War Italy and on Rossi’s role as an architect in that period.Keywords: Aldo Rossi, Italy, architecture, landscape, European history
