L’apparato effimero allestito nella cattedrale di Palermo per le cerimonie funebri di Carlo III di Borbone (1789): storia e rappresentazione digitale
2022
The paper focus on the ephemeral apparatus realized by the architect Salvatore Attinelli on the occasion of the funeral of Charles III of Bourbon, to be set up inside the cathedral of Palermo, in those years affected by a total internal modernization based on the project commissioned in 1767 to Ferdinando Fuga. This apparatus, in an article published by the academic Giuseppina Leone in 2001, was considered an alternative project to the proposal of Ferdinando Fuga, considered expensive and with a language not responding to the rules of good and modern architecture. The purpose of this paper is to reinforce the hypothesis of an apparatus having design purposes, and to verify its feasibility t…
Morto il re viva il re: le esequie di Filippo IV e la cerimonialità funeraria nella Sicilia dell'età moderna
2015
Il saggio analizza la cerimonialità con la quale si partecipa al popolo siciliano la morte del sovrano Filippo IV e, contestualmente, si presta giuramento di fedeltà al suo successore. Le motivazioni religiose di queste cerimonialità costituiscono una sorta di trama sulla quale si incardinano i riti per il consolidamento del rapporto di fedeltà tra il sovrano e i suoi sudditi.
Actuaciones procesales de la mujer en Roma. Prohibición edictal y literatura jurídica
2020
[Resumen] La improcedencia moral de que las mujeres usen de la palabra en el ámbito público, que se refiere a los lugares de espacio relevante como es el forum o intervengan en actos jurídicos formales, especialmente los solemnia verba, no impide que pueda intervenir procesalmente en defensa de asuntos propios y ajenos, aunque esta postulatio se traten de virilibus officiis. De esta forma la intervención de la mujer en la defensa de asuntos propios y ajenos aparece como algo poco común pero no prohibido hasta finales de la república. Un edicto de la primera mitad del s. I a. C, introduce el impedimento general de que intervenga la mujer en los procesos ajenos. La contradictoria afirmación q…
Vivere e morire regalmente nella Sicilia del secondo Settecento. Incisioni di architettura per il palazzo e per i funerali del principe di Biscari a …
2022
This article presents four engravings that bear witness to the most significant stages of the celebrations organised in Catania for the funeral of the Prince of Biscari, Ignazio Paternò Castello, on 2 September 1786. This graphic corpus constitutes the last opportunity to celebrate the prince’s memory and prominence based on the models established by European courts, but at the same time it reveals more recondite aspects of the research into phenomena of emulation in architecture and self-representation that have not emerged to date from studies on the aristocrat from Catania and that reflect above all the way of life of a cultured personality driven by great ambitions. The aim of the resea…

Australian Modernist Theatre and Patrick White’s the Ham Funeral (1961 [1947])
2017
For a considerable period of time, literary Modernism has been mainly associated with the study of the novel and poetry rather than drama perhaps due to New Criticism’s emphasis on the text and disregard of performance. This profound anti-theatrical thrust of Modernism has to be, most certainly, re-examined and reassessed, particularly within the context of Australian literature and, more specifically, Australian theatre. That Australian modernist theatre has been inconspicuous on the world stage seems to be an obvious and undisputable statement of facts. Yet, with Patrick White, English-born but Australian-bred 1976 Nobel Prize winner for literature, Australian low-brow uneasy mix of Briti…
Los canecillos de la Capilla del Cementerio de San Juan del Hospital de Valencia
2020
In the medieval cemetery of the Historic Site of San Juan del Hospital of Valencia is housed a small funeral chapel founded in the late thirteenth century by the knight Arnau de Romaní. Along its cornice there are a series of heads of animals and humans that are one of the few sculptural vestiges inserted into the Romanesque iconographic tradition that are preserved in the city. So far they have not aroused the interest of specialists and no one has dedicated a detailed study to these curious and interesting images located in the marginal spaces of such a beautiful building. This article aims to complete this gap addressing the study of the corbels of the small temple, projecting a thematic…
Recuerdos figurados. "Fotos de familia" en Sicilia
2020
“Life is not what you have lived, but what you remember and how you remem- ber it to tell”. Taking cue from the words of Gabriel García Márquez, the essay analyzes a gallery of photographic images portraying “family photos”, made in Sicily between the end of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century, which are placed in an inter- mediate space between oral and written traditions becoming “biographical object”. The analysis of the photographic corpus searches for the connections between the different events that the image has gone through (production, transmission, fruition). It is in his “life story”, in his passage from one generation to the other, from one type of represe…
Придворные королевские церемонии и их рецепция в праздничной жизни Речи Посполитой
2020
The author traces the transition of the royal court of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth to the Western European model of court ceremonies, which lasted for almost two centuries, from the sixteenth to the eighteenth centuries. Initially, they followed the ceremonial models of the House of Habsburg and, starting in the 1640s, the French ceremonial, refined at the Versailles of Louis XIV. Meant to extol the monarch in the eyes of subjects, such ceremonies became widespread under kings of the House of Vasa, Michał Korybut Wiśniowiecki, Jan III Sobieski, and the House of Wettin. Many etiquette elements and ceremonial patterns were borrowed and adapted to the needs of the wealthy Polish and Lit…
LIMINARY IMAGES. THE RITES OF PASSAGE IN THE PHOTOGRAPHIC ALBUMS OF THE SICILIAN FAMILIES OF THE XX SEC.
2017
“Life is not what you have lived, but what you remember and how you remember it to tell“. Taking cue from the words of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, the essay analyzes a gallery of photographic images portraying «family photos», made in Sicily between the end of the 19th century and the first decades of the 20th century, which are placed in an intermediate space between oral and written traditions becoming «biographical object». The analysis of the photographic corpus searches for the connections between the different events that the image has gone through (production, transmission, fruition). It is in his «life story», in his passage from one generation to the other, from one type of representat…
