It is a cubic work measuring 12 m on a side, which attends to the place while trying to evoke the memory of the feeling of refuge and effort of the Italian combatants in the Second World War [9]. The staircase, which is compressed in the ritual of ascent into the interior of the cube, reaches a horizontal platform from which it directs the gaze to the mountains of Boves, where the partisan groups fought in their Resistance to the Nazi occupation. The section of the monument, a staircase that ends in an elongated window like a fissure that looks out into the landscape, will be repeated by Rossi in other works such as the Sandro Pertini monument in Milan, built between 1988–1989. The staircase is conceived by Rossi more for its semantic than formal value, by giving it a powerful meaning in its architecture. The cube, as an ideal architectural form [10], will be used again by Rossi, after the project of the monument to the Resistance, in the Modena cemetery, built between 1971–1978, in the Teatro del Mondo, ephemeral architecture presented for the 1979 Venice Biennale, or in the aforementioned monument to Sandro Pertini. Rossi's analogous thought in which history is remembered through the objects of affection (oggetti d’affezione) that memory makes use of [11] is discovered in this project. Rossi shows us the myth of the partisans’refuge, recreating one of the caves in his cube through the spatial organization and tour of the monument. The commemoration of history thanks to a monument that allows us to understand the past is what gives it its own status as a monument [12]. Fig. 5. Conical perspective of the Partigliani monument, in Segrate (EGA 1 student: López, P., 2020). 142 M. C. Vílchez Lara The monumental fountain in the Plaza de Segrate is one of the most representative monuments to memory of Aldo Rossi's architecture (Fig. 5). It is present in numerous publications, exhibitions and compositions made by this Italian theorist and great thinker, such as, in the painting of Arduino Cantafora entitled Analogue City, which chaired the Architecture Section of the XV Triennial [13]. Designed in 1965, it has recently been restored by one of his disciples and collaborators, Gianni Braghieri [14]. The square, equipped with some steps, appears as an almost empty space delimited by a wall with few openings, vestiges of columns emerging from the ground and the fountain. This is made up of simple juxtaposed volumes: a parallelepiped that lodges the staircase, a cylinder and a triangular prism, like a tympanum, through which the water circulates before being poured into an elongated line of water. Even though it is a minor work, it is capable of explaining the poetics of the architecture of Rossi with special expressiveness, through “a dense and voluntary combination of Greek simplicity, neo-enlightened exaltation, metaphysical plastic sentiment and Corbusian adhesion”[15] (p. 533). Rossi himself would recognize the existence of an upward movement in the whole of the square, projected as a podium, theater, a public place par excellence, at the same time that he justified the appearance of the tympanum –the triangle–as “a form very pure derived from classical architecture such as the column element”[16] (p. 13). Peter Eisenman will introduce Rossi to the American public as the creator of a deep imaginary and will choose as the back cover of his book “Aldo Rossi in America: 1976 to 1979”a sketch by Rossi of the Segrate monument fountain, located at a closeup [17]. Ernesto Nathan Rogers, director of the Domus and Casabella magazines, exerted a great influence on architects such as Aldo Rossi with his intense theoretical corpus around the essential role of historical consciousness in architecture and the recovery of tradition for the progress of culture [18]. Aldo Rossi was part of the group of young architecture students at the Milan Polytechnic, since the mid-1950s, which would be known as the “Giovani delle colonne”[19], in their commitment to realism and historical tradition as opposed to rationalism and functionalism of the Movimiento di Studi per l'Architettura, defended by Giancarlo De Carlo as a continuity of the first Italian Modern Movement. The innovation and reinterpretation of the historical tradition with forms and typologies of the past, such as arches and columns, are closely linked with the collective memory and the place. 4 Results and Conclusions The monographic works resulted in products obtained from the self-learning of the students, supervised by their teacher: a series of drawings and collages in A3 format, in addition to the physical models of the studied referents, in which the materiality and the scale of the monument referenced with respect to the human scale. These monographs or case studies are the practical and direct application of the theory taught in the subject: the block of the Dihedral System, which includes problems or research exercises, documentation, analysis, 2D views, changes of plane and composition; orthogonal and oblique Axonometries; Conical Perspectives; and, Shadows.

Dihedral views of the penultimate version of the monument to Roberto Sarfatti (EGA 1 student: Abdul, M., 2019). 144 M. C. Vílchez Lara The practices developed in the monographic works achieved not only that the students learned the fundamentals of the different representation systems and the graphic codes that are used in architectural graphic expression, but we were able to observe that as the students were able to control what basic, they were paying attention to the rest of the contents and they began to make the research work and the proposed graphic experience totally their own, unique and personal (Fig. 6, Fig. 7). With the presentation and correction of the works in the face-to-face sessions carried out in the classroom, the students learned to develop constructive critical thinking in addition to being aware of the ways in which a work can be read and have a special meaning within the graphic signifier that shows. These two academic years that we have worked monuments to memory with EGA 1 students, projected by Terragni and Rossi, have allowed us to discover a series of meeting points between these two Italian architects, belonging to different eras and political ideologies. Among them we stand out: –the monument linked to the feeling of collective memory and of the place, –interest in the past, –the use of stone as the most suitable material to express the monumentality and relationship with the land, –the use of abstract and round geometries, with perfect symmetries, –the sculpted staircase as a powerful compositional element that elevates the body and the gaze, the incidence of light and shadows generated by the architecture of the monument (Fig. 8). Regarding the perception of the subject by students, we conclude that the linking of the learning of geometric shapes and representation systems to such significant architectural references, constitutes a motivating element that breaks with the abstract isolation of the old Descriptive Geometry subject, of which comes from EGA 1, while enhancing interaction with other disciplines of the degree in Architecture, such as History of Architecture and Architectural Composition. The interest in the search for pedagogical and motivating exercises for the teaching of Descriptive Geometry, using recognizable architectures and making the student feel the owner of his learning, has recently been evidenced by authors such as Álvaro, Alonso and Galván[20].
