Breve descrizione dei contenuti:
Vinigo is a mountain village with an elevation of 1,025 m situated in the Belluno province of the Veneto Region, Italy. It is one of the oldest settlements in the Ladin area in the Dolomites, which have been included in the Unesco World Heritage List in 2009. In the article I consider different interaction and relationship of our interlocutors with their environment. I first examine ideas about climate and environmental changes through a choice of relevant passages of the collected transcribed material. How do the people of Vinigo perceive them? Then, I look at how they understand/interpret the perceived changes. Further, I present a number of relationships that can be inferred from the material collected.
