Riarticolare la giustizia. L'impegno semiotico del Giorno della civetta
Lo studio usa strumenti della semiotica strutturale e interpretativa per proporre un close reading del Giorno della civetta. L’analisi così condotta mette in evidenza come il testo s’impegni a ristrutturare la competenza interpretativa del let-tore e, con essa, alcuni valori alla base della sua coscienza civile, con particolareriferimento alla verità e la giustizia. A partire dalla costruzione delle tensioni narrative intorno a questi due valori, si mette in evidenza lo slittamento semanticoche consente di leggere «il primo romanzo di mafia» come «il primo romanzosull’antimafia». The study uses tools of structural and interpretative semiotics to propose a close reading of the Day of the Owl…
Durée et catastrophe. Régimes temporels et conflits écologiques à l’heure de la globalisation de l’environnement
Elaborating from anthropology of nature and semiotic of culture, the work aims to illustrate that every ecological crisis is, also, a temporality crisis.

The analysis shows that while the MIT report successfully points the temporality crisis r…

« L’homme-à-fourchette ». La construction du convive-modèle à la table de Buckingham Palace
“Every meal is a lesson learned”. The Victorian saying warns of the risk of punishment that every guest constantly incurs. These sanctions often relate to the way in which one approaches, one selects, one handles the cutlery on the table. Indeed, the construction of the ideal guest, of his way of being with others and of behaving in relation to food, often and above all involves being a "model user" of table service. We will analyze this aspect from the images and speeches posted on the Windsors' Twitter account, the official websites of the Royal Family and the manners manuals they sponsor. Each of these supports manifests an aspect of the subjectivity of the ideal guest as a model-user of…
