摘要：Abstract The figure of Paolo Marconi can inevitably be found in any architectural heritage conservation debate which may have taken place since the 60’s; and this, not only in Italy. Right up until his last days, both in terms of theory and of architectural practice, he has been a relevant –sometimes, not exempt from controversy- landmark. Questions that he opened up for us: the psychological dimension that justifi es reconstructions à l’identique; the recovery of beauty; the distinction between a “replica” and a “falsifi cation” in architecture; the defense of craft –and the crafts- of construction as a heritage value; the vindication of knowledge -the uso sapiente of architecture- before acting… From positions close to or distant from his, we should register these questions within the framework of any architectural heritage culture.
