Lügenerwerb und Geschichten vom Lügen
2011
The acquisition of lying is a complex developmental process, where linguistic, cognitive, emotional and moral aspects are intertwined. It is shown that this developmental process is reflected in children’s literature. Since lying is indeed a very important topic in children’s literature, as is shown with regard to children’s books ranging from picture books to books for children in school age to books for young adults, we argue that this topic cannot be well understood when these developmental aspects are not taken into consideration.

2013
Traendo spunto dalle vicende della legge n. 128/2011, che limita lo sconto massimo praticabile al pubblico sul prezzo di copertina dei libri, pprovata con largo consenso e presto abrogata nell’indifferenza generale, l’articolo propone una approfondita analisi del modello nel quale tale legge si inscrive e delle soluzioni alternative che si riscontrano nel contesto europeo. L’indagine intende, quindi, riflettere sulla fondatezza degli assunti tradizionalmente posti alla base della difesa della Rpm libraria. Taking the cue from the events of the Law n. 128/2011, limiting the discounts on books cover price, which was passed by broad consensus and soon implicitly repealed amid the general indif…
Bibliotecas versus librerías de grandes superficies comerciales : usuarios y clientes
2007
En este artículo se analiza la polémica que surgió en Estados Unidos en 1998 entre la pervivencia de la biblioteca tradicional y una nueva forma de entender la información en las librerías de las grandes superficies comerciales. Después de una breve historia del origen de las grandes librerías y su posterior integración en las grandes superficies comerciales se examina como ha influido en la biblioteca esta nueva práctica empresarial. Cómo pretende convertir al usuario en cliente y obligarle a pagar por determinados servicios bibliotecarios. Por último, reflexiona de la manera que la popularización del ordenador y la irrupción de Internet han reforzado el papel de la biblioteca como centro …
Between the Darkness of Barbarism and the Light of Civilization: British Images of the Finn in the Late Eighteenth Century
2014
This article aims to show that it was the British travellers (Coxe, Tooke, Clarke,et al.) to Finland in the late eighteenth century who discovered Finland for theBritish reading public. As they distinguished the Finns as a separate ‘race’ fromthe Russians, the Swedes, and the Lapps, they contributed to the proto-racialistimage of them that would become popular in the nineteenth century. BecauseSweden had become an important maritime trading partner (in iron ore, tar, andtimber) to the British, its eastern part, Finland, also became an interesting countryto visit en route from Stockholm to Saint Petersburg (or from Saint Petersburgto Stockholm). The travellers were astonished to realize that…
Pero Tafur and Bertradon de la Broquière in Constantinople: The Ceremonial Image of Mary of Trabzond and the Diplomatic Meetings around the Council o…
2019
After the fall of Constantinople (1453), Pero Tafur and Bertrandon de La Broquière make known their works, which are two of the most important travel books written in Europe during the fifteenth century. Both travellers had known, between fifteen and twenty years before, the emperor of Greece, John VIII Palaiologos, Pope Eugene IV and other protagonists of the councils of Basel (1431-1434) and Ferrara-Florence (1438-1439), which decreed the union between the Roman and Greek churches. The travellers were, thus, witnesses, but also informants and active diplomats for the attempts of religious and political union, which Pope Pius II tried to revive after the fall of Constantinople. Tafur and L…
