Paleontología y ambientes del Triásico Medio en el sector noroccidental de la cordillera ibérica (provs. de Soria y Guadalajara, España)
1991
El Triásico Medio del sector noroccidental de la Cordillera Ibérica está compuesto por dos formaciones carbonáticas, que se corresponden con la unidad carbonática superior del Muschelkalk, y que hacia el NW pasan lateralmente a una formación terrígena. El registro fósil se encuentra en ambos tipos de formaciones. Tanto el estudio tafonómico como sedimentológico, permiten inferir la presencia de elementos acumulados que podrían corresponder a asociaciones autóctonas, compuestas en su mayoría por bivalvos infaunales de medios marinos someros y sometidos a fuerte influencia de terrígenos. Se caracterizan en la zona tres asociaciones faunísticas: 1. Asociación CostatoriaLyriomyophoria, que apar…
Middle Triassic carbonate platform-basin system from Sicily. New evidence from the Madonie Mountains

Verb-Second and (micro)-variation in two Rhaeto-Romance varieties of Northern Italy.
2018
Rhaeto-Romance varieties are the only present-day Romance varieties which exhibit the Verb Second constraint (Benincà 1994, Poletto 2002, Salvi 2010). In this chapter we examine two properties typically ascribed to the Verb Second phenomenon, subject-finite verb inversion and restrictions on the co-occurrence of multiple constituents in the sentence-initial position, in two Rhaeto-Romance varieties spoken in South Tyrol (Province of Bolzano, Northern Italy). We demonstrate that both varieties behave like Verb-Second languages as far as both phenomena are concerned, but exhibit a specific Verb-Second system governed by the interplay between syntactic and discourse constraints which differs f…
Introduzione al Manuale di linguistica ladina
2020
Il capitolo presenta le finalità e la struttura del Manuale di linguistica ladina. In particolare, si discutono le principali questioni definitorie riguardo al glottonimo ed etnonimo ladino, si giustifica la delimitazione del ladino brissinotirolese, oggetto del Manuale, mediante una combinazione di criteri sia di linguistica interna che esterna, che vengono illustrati singolarmente, e infine si prospettano alcuni desiderata nell’ambito della ricerca scientifica sul ladino. This chapter discusses the aims and the structure of the Manuale di linguistica ladina. It focuses in particular on the main classifying issues about "Ladin" used as language name as well as ethnic defiinition; on the co…
Middle Triassic (Ladinian) deep-water sediments in Sicily: New findings from the Madonie Mountains
2012
A section of carbonate megabreccias grading upward to deep-water Daonella limestones is described from the locality of Sant’Otiero, near Petralia Sottana, in the Madonie Mountains (Sicily). The megabreccia mainly consists of neritic elements containing dasycladalean algae (Diplopora annulatissima Pia) along with benthic foraminifers and problematics. The overlying calcilutitic strata are characterized by lumachella intercalations containing the bivalve Daonella tyrolensis Mojsisovics suggesting an early Late Ladinian (Protrachyceras longobardicum ammonoid zone) age. We informally name the Daonella limestone as the calcare di Sant’Otiero (Sant’Otiero limestone). The Daonella limestones along…
New biostratigraphic data from the Ladinian pelagic limestones of Pizzo di Sant’Otiero - Madonie Mountains, Sicily
2014
New biostratigraphic data, based on conodont investigations, were collected from the Ladinian limestones recently described at Sant’Otiero, a locality near the Village of Petralia Sottana in the Madonie Mountains (Central-Northern Sicily). At this locality a new calcareous succession lying at the base of a major tectonic unit of the Maghrebian chain is described. This succession consists of a lower massive part formed by a carbonate megabreccia, the elements of which are shallow water extraclasts with dasycladalean algae (Diplopora annulatissima Pia), benthic foraminifers, “Tubiphytes” and problematic organisms commonly described from Anisian carbonate platforms. Upward a well-bedded succes…

The expression of additivity in the Alps: German auch, Italian anche and their counterparts in Gardenese Ladin
2019
Additive particles (e.g. English also) usually operate on a constituent (‘domain of association’) signaling that it has to be added to a list of items already introduced in the context or inferable. In addition, they can also exhibit a more grammatical function acting as a focused constituent itself or a modal particle. In the present contribution, we aim to provide a classification of the usage patterns and main grammatical functions of the additive item also in the standard languages spoken in the alpine region of Trentino-South Tyrol, i.e. German (auch) and Italian (anche) and in a regional language, Gardenese Ladin (belonging to the Rhaeto-romance group), which displays two forms: nce a…
