p:abstract
  • Manchester (; ) is a city and metropolitan borough of Greater Manchester, England. Manchester was granted city status in 1853. It has a population of 452,000, and lies at the centre of the wider Greater Manchester Urban Area, which has a population of 2,240,230,the United Kingdom's third largest conurbation. Manchester has the second largest urban zone in the UK and the fourteenth most populated in Europe. Forming part of the English Core Cities Group, often described as the second city of the UK, and the "Capital of the North", Manchester today is a centre of the arts, the media, higher education and commerce. In a poll of British business leaders published in 2006, Manchester was regarded as the best place in the UK to locate a business. A report commissioned by Manchester Partnership, published in 2007, showed Manchester to be the "fastest-growing city" economically. It is the third most visited city in the United Kingdom by foreign visitors. Manchester was the host of the 2002 Commonwealth Games, and among its other sporting connections are its two Premier League football teams, Manchester United and Manchester City. Historically, most of the city was a part of Lancashire, with areas south of the River Mersey being in Cheshire. Manchester was the world's first industrialised city and played a central role during the Industrial Revolution. It was the dominant international centre of textile manufacture and cotton spinning. During the 19th century it acquired the nickname Cottonopolis, (en)

  • Manchester è una città del Regno Unito, capoluogo dell’omonimo distretto metropolitano con status di city e della contea metropolitana inglese della Greater Manchester. Ha una popolazione di 437.000 abitanti, che vengono chiamati Mancunians (Mancuniani). Manchester fu fondata nel 79 d.C. dal governatore romano Giulio Agricola, che stabilì un forte chiamato Mamucium (collina a forma di seno). Nel XIV secolo vi si stabilì una comunità di Fiamminghi, che iniziò la tessitura della lana e del lino, dando così origine alla tradizione tessile mancuniana. Manchester visse il suo momento di massima espansione nel XVIII secolo quando, sotto la spinta delle innovazioni tecniche, innumerevoli imprese tessili vi si stabilirono e la resero una fra le più importanti città della rivoluzione industriale in Inghilterra. Parte del merito fu dovuto al clima molto umido, ideale per la lavorazione del cotone. Lo sviluppo industriale fu favorito anche dalla vicinanza di giacimenti di carbon fossile e dalla relativa vicinanza con il porto di Liverpool, collegato tramite ferrovia dal 1830. Con la costruzione del Manchester Ship Canal, ultimato nel 1894, Manchester divenne il terzo porto commerciale inglese, nonostante si trovi a circa 60 km dal mare. Nel XX secolo Manchester ha vissuto alti e bassi, con la crisi dell'industria tessile, controbilanciato dalla crescita della ricerca nel campo dell'informatica, con la costruzione dei primi computer da parte di Alan Turing. Manchester fu sconvolta dagli attentati dell'IRA del 15 giugno 1996, che causarono circa 200 feriti e la distruzione di notevoli edifici nell'area di Market Street. L'evento diede il via ad una notevole azione di riqualificazione urbana nel centro della città, simboleggiata dalla costruzione del centro espositivo Urbis, progettato dall'architetto Ian Simpson e inaugurato nel 2002. Nel 2002 Manchester ha ospitato la XVII edizione dei Giochi del Commonwealth. (it)

  • Manchester is een stad en Engels district in het graafschap Greater Manchester. De oppervlakte bedraagt 115,7 km². Manchester is met 422.302 inwoners (2002) de 6e grootste stad in Engeland. De agglomeratie Greater Manchester heeft ruim 2,6 miljoen inwoners. Manchester geldt in de hele wereld als het archetype van een textielstad (zie: Manchesters van deze wereld), mede omdat Vlaamse wevers zich er vestigden. De stad was belangrijk bij de opkomst van de industriële revolutie. Manchester is onder andere bekend vanwege de wereldberoemde voetbalclub Manchester United. Een tweede club uit de stad is Manchester City. (nl)
  • Manchester er en havne- og industriby i nordvest-England, og kjernen i det seremonielle grevskapet Stor-Manchester. Den regnes ofte som Englands by nummer to etter London, men Birmingham har egentlig dobbelt så mange innbyggere. Årsaken til denne oppfatningen er at dersom man tar med forsteder har de to byene omtrent samme befolkning, drøyt 2,5 millioner; Birmingham med omegn har bare noen tusen flere innbyggere enn Stor-Manchester. Innbyggerne kalles Mancunians eller bare Mancs. Ofte refererer man til hele Stor-Manchester som Manchester, men området består av flere selvstendige byer. Det varierer mellom disse hvor sterk tilknytning innbyggerne føler til Manchester by, og for eksempel i Salford setter de fleste lite pris på å bli omtalt som Mancunians. (no)

  • Manchester é uma cidade do Reino Unido, no noroeste da Inglaterra. A aglomeração urbana de Manchester tem cerca de 3,6 milhões de habitantes, que inclui outras cidades e áreas no condado, e é chamada Grande Manchester. A cidade é um grande centro industrial e econômico, e muitas companhias têm as sedes administrativas no centro da cidade ou num parque industrial ao este do centro, Trafford Park (perto de Old Trafford onde fica Manchester United) Tem origem num povoado céltico e foi designada de Mancunium pelos romanos e, por isso, os habitantes são hoje chamados de Mancunians em inglês. Manchester teve um papel primordial na Revolução Industrial: foi aqui aplicada a máquina a vapor à indústria têxtil pela primeira vez em 1789. A primeira linha férrea de passageiros foi também construída aqui, ligando a cidade com Liverpool. Está ligada desde 1894 por um canal ao mar. Manchester também é conhecida mundialmente por seus dois grandes clubes, o Manchester United e o Manchester City, que fazem o clássico desta cidade, City x United. (pt)
