Italian term or phrase: cornice complessa e unitaria
La tradizione scientifica italiana, nella cornice complessa e unitaria della cultura, ha continuato ad alimentarsi nei secoli e tutt’oggi il Bel Paese è tra i primi al mondo per produzione di nuova conoscenza di cui “Italia: la Bellezza della Conoscenza” esplora i valori, l’impatto economico-produttivo e le ricadute sulla vita quotidiana e testimonia l’insieme dei tanti scienziati italiani che occupano posizione di primissimo piano in tutti gli ambiti di ricerca.

complex and unitary (cultural) framework
Explanation:
I'm not sure if Italy can be described as having a unitary cultural framework, since the north is so different from the south, but that's what it says.

inalienable part of Italy's cultural landscape


Explanation:
To me the word "unitary" means nothing in this context - it seems like a typical example of an Italian writing something which sounds impressive but is essentially devoid of meaning. As I said above, I interpret "unitaria" here as being a sort of "uniting" element, in the sense that science and culture have developed hand-in-hand over the years and are inseparable. And I think you need to rewrite the text, something like:

"An inalienable part of Italy's complex cultural landscape, the country's scientific tradition has continued to grow and develop over the centuries, and today..."

The answer should read "Italy's COMPLEX cultural landscape". Sorry about that.
