L’Effet Hamlet: une dégénérescence transformationnelle?
2022
Max a enfermé Tom dans la cave does not specify whether Tom was in the cellar before being locked up or not. This article shows how this semantic indeterminacy, highlighted and called Effet Hamlet by Jean-Paul Boons in the late seventies, should perhaps be considered a fall-out of syn- tactic transformational processes.

A Conceptual Restructuring of Spatial Motion Expressions in Chinese L2
2018
This paper focuses on the patterns in the encoding of spatial motion events that play a major role in the acquisition of these type of expressions. The goal is to single out the semantic contribution of the linguistic items which surface in Chinese locative constructions. In this way, we intend to provide learners with an account of the spatial representation encoded in the Chinese language. In fact, Chinese grammar is often perceived as idiosyncratic, thus generating a frustration that turns into learned helplessness (Maier and Seligman, 1976). We will analyze Talmy (2000a,b) framework under the light of investigations such as Landau and Jackendoff (1993), Svenonius (2004, 2006, 2007), and…
Figure del contagio. Dalle topografie mediche al contact tracing: trasformazioni nell’architettura e nel paesaggio urbano
2021
Ita_Il tracciamento del contagio, fra le più efficaci forme globali di difesa dal coronavirus, viene ripercorso mettendo in luce il rapporto fra pensiero architettonico e spazio delle epidemie negli ultimi due secoli. La relazione fra la diffusione delle malattie e le forme del costruito è stata infatti compresa nella seconda metà dell’Ottocento attraverso le mappature tematiche, secondo metodi ancora oggi in evoluzione. A partire dalle topografie mediche comparse per la prima volta in Francia nel XIX secolo, interpolate con le intuizioni di J. Snow sulla base delle mappe da lui elaborate nello stesso periodo in Inghilterra, si evidenziano i modi di formazione di un regime di sapere teso fr…
Costrutti locativi e non locativi con mettere
2013
Sentence (a) Ada mise Pio nel sacco is ambiguous: one of its meanings is literal (Ada put Pio in the sack), whereas the other is figurative (Ada fooled / outsmarted Pio). Such ambiguity is not present in sentence (b) Ada mise Pio in un sacco. On the surface, (b) differs from (a) only insofar as the indefinite article is employed, but conveys a literal meaning exclusively (Ada put Pio in a sack). The ambiguity of sentence (a) is derived from the existence of two constructions employing mettere. The prepositional phrase of one of them displays standard paradigmatic properties and conveys literal (i.e. locative) meaning, whereas the other has no locative value and is highly constrained (e.g. n…
