Abstract
This paper aims to highlight the peculiar relationships between natural and anthropic factors which modified the landscape of the Phlegraean Fields from the early Greek and Roman settlements until the current time. The dynamism of such landscape is mainly due to the volcanism, of which bradyseism is the most famous phenomenon occurred. In addition, the sea and more generally water have played a remarkable role in shaping such territory. The Mediterranean identity strongly characterises this coastal area, which has attracted aristocrats, artists, scientists, and tourists. The research focuses on three municipalities: Pozzuoli, Bacoli, and Monte di Procida. Their analyses show many similarities in environmental, cultural, landscape and urban features. Finally, an overview of the strengths and weaknesses of the study area provides the basis of a Phlegraean green-blue infrastructure as means to reconnect cultural heritage and landscape, and to support its sustainable development.
