Image and Copy in Contemporary Deconstruction of Platonism
2017
This paper aims at investigating the relationship between some contemporary Interpretations of Plato's Ontology and the Theory of Image-Copy connection developed in many Dialogues such as Sophist, Philebus, Timaeus and Republic. By examinating some of the most relevant criticisms to this Theory cast by french Philosophers such as Deleuze and Derrida and by retracing the roots of these criticisms to the common source of Nietzsche's and Heidegger's Thought, the paper argues a way to overcome the stiff opposition which is commonly held between these two fronts, thus trying to refine the hermeneutical approach to Plato which almost dominated the XX century.
Superstrade urbane. Dall’alta velocità alle trasformazioni contemporanee
2013
This article focuses on urban freeway deconstruction processes that recognize this infrastructure as a resource to be reclaimed for urban regeneration. Since they first appeared, freeways have been more than simple carriers of traffic flow. Following the suggestions provided by Le Corbusier, Drexler and Rudofsky in their “ROADS” exhibition, Lawrence Halprin, Reyner Banham, particular attention is paid to the shift towards a larger set of aesthetic assumptions applied to highways. Fifty years after the iconic evocation of Autopia, urban freeways no longer embody the modern value of speed: they must increasingly deal with ecological challenges and re-cycling processes. The nodes where infrast…
Contemporary hermeneutics and the role of the self in translation
2009
La investigación hermenéutica, impulsada por Schleiermacher a principios del siglo XIX, parece haber conducido, en los últimos años del siglo XX, a una concepción más amplia y profunda del papel del traductor. La confluencia de diversas fuerzas y corrientes científicas y filosóficas y su consiguiente refuerzo mutuo han dado lugar a la aparición de un conjunto de teorías que se ocupan de las inquietudes del traductor en torno a la subjetividad de la traducción. Este conjunto de teorías recoge influencias tanto de las principales escuelas de pensamiento, tales como los estudios hermenéuticos de Heidegger y Gadamer, la deconstrucción de Derrida, las aventuras de Wittgenstein con los juegos de …
Bioy Casares: neo-fantástico y deconstrucción
2016
The complex dynamics of space and time present in some of the stories of Adolfo Bioy Casares have their roots in the interstitial that separates the genres of fantasy and neo-fantasy, and most of all in the suggestion of ontological ideas and doubts that characterise the latter. Deeply rooted in the unknown land of a reality that is full of doubts, the literature of Bioy Casares seeks to restore, through the multiple games of fiction, the perception and perceptions of a continuous changes that end with generating parallel worlds. The neo-fantastic passes the crucial limit of traditional fantasy, the stable and certain dichotomy between the real and the imaginary, and to do this it relies on…
Distruzione/costruzione/decostruzione. Il flusso continuo dell'architettura contemporanea
2014
Lo spazio dell’architettura contemporanea, nella sua duplice scala costruttiva e urbanistica, è caratterizzato dalla distruzione. Una condizione che è al tempo stesso reale (le discontinuità, i vuoti, le demolizioni) e simbolica. Alcuni artisti percorrono all’inverso il processo creativo, e partono dalla distruzione intesa come procedura artistica. Tra essi Gordon Matta-Clark, che riporta a un modello architettonico le operazioni distruttive di Burri, o Gustav Metzger nella cui opera la distruzione si converte in atto creativo. La nozione di rovina in Derrida è quindi utilizzata. The essay is focused on the relevance of destruction for architecture. Destruction, is intended as an act, as a …
