Passions animales
2021
In this article, questions concerning the relationship between semiotics and ethology will be discussed, starting from the idea of internaturality circulating in contemporary culture. After outlining the principles of a zoosemiotic 2.0, a case of animism present in the current press will be analysed, which speaks of the passions of apes as typically human passions.
Voglio tempo. Reflejos emblemáticos en Il trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno de Benedetto Pamphilij y Georg Friedrich Handel.
2014
ABSTRACT: Allegorical and emblematic images do not appear exclusively in visual literature: Genres such as the Italian or the Italian-inspired Counter-Reformation oratorios, cantatas and sacred or moral operas often contain images quite similar in form and function to those published in the Seventeenth and early Eighteenth-century European collections of emblems. This article analyses some of these parallelisms in the particular case of Il trionfo del Tempo e del Disinganno (c. 1707), by the librettist and patron of the arts Cardinal Benedetto Pamphilj and the composer Georg Friedrich Handel. KEYWORDS: Emblem, Opera, Oratorio, Academy, Discourse, Allegory, Rhetoric, Aural, Visual, Pamphilj,…
Per un approccio retorico alle emozioni. Aristotele, Retorica, II,1-11
2021
Il saggio analizza la sezione della “Retorica” di Aristotele dedicata alle passioni (II, 1-11). Il principale elemento di novità che la prospettiva aristotelica è in grado di introdurre nel dibattito contemporaneo sulle emozioni consiste nella natura specificamente retorica dell’indagine in grado di far emergere, di più e meglio che in altre prospettive, il nesso tra corpo, linguaggio e socialità nell’animale umano.
Apocryphal Passions of the Apostles in Croatian Glagolitic Texts
2020
In the course of the Middle Ages, apocryphal and hagiographic texts of The Acts of the Apostles of various origins became part of the Croatian Glagolitic literature. The Passion of Saint Andrew, for example, is documented in the sanctorale of nineteen Croatian Glagolitic breviaries dating from the period between the 14th and mid-16th centuries. The Glagolitic Passion is an abbreviated translation of the Latin Epistula presbyterorum et diaconorum Achaiae (BHL 428) from the 6th century. The texts of the Passion of Jamesthe Apostle (Jacobus Maior, apost., filius Zebedaei, frater Johannis, Passio, BHL 4057) are found in two Glagolitic breviaries, namely the Breviary of Vitus of Omi?alj (1396) a…
Filozof - przewodnik
2016
Starożytni stoicy uważali siebie za przewodników ludzi w kwestiach dotyczących tego, co zgodne z ich naturą. Udzielali porad, jak postępować w codziennych sprawach. Współcześnie niektórzy filozofowie kontynuują tę starożytną tradycję jako doradcy bądź trenerzy rozwoju osobistego. Czy są przewodnikami w sensie, w jakim byli nimi stoicy? Pytanie to stanie się myślą przewodnią rozważań podjętych w niniejszym wystąpieniu. Problemem podstawowym będzie poszukiwanie właściwej formuły, w jakiej można by było zamknąć współczesne filozoficzne przewodnictwo (kierownictwo duchowe) w sytuacji, gdy uznaje się, że nie może być ono prostym powielaniem starożytnych wzorów
The genetic mechanism of fallness: St. Maximos the Confessor revisited
2022
Through a close reading of the two definitions of evil in the Introduction to Responses to Thalassios , this article points out a circular, cognitive-affective-somatic, genetic mechanism that St. Maximos the Confessor considers responsible for the initiation and transmission of the fallness as a human condition and the specific manifestation of it in the form of passions. It elucidates the first definition as mainly phenomenological, by identifying the circular mechanism and its behavioural expressions, and the second definition as more aetiological, by explaining why this mechanism emerges and reemerges with the fallen humanity despite its catastrophic results. Contribution: This article h…
The Need for More Rhetoric in the Public Sphere. A Challenging Thesis About Post-Truth
2018
Since it hit the headlines and aroused the interest of scholars, the phenomenon of posttruth has received two main different interpretations: someone has observed that in the phenomenon there is nothing really new: lies and fakes are always existed and the only real difference is represented by the speed with which today, thanks to the means of communication, they spread. Others, on the other hand, have emphasized the close relationship between postmodernism and post-truth, arguing that the first one is the ideological background of the second one. Our paper aims to show that in order to frame post-truth in the right perspective, we need the theoretical framework offered by the rhetoric. In…
