Usi pubblici e politici di Dante Alighieri
2022
The commemorations of Dante Alighieri ‘s 700th death anniversary saw in 2021 a ‘national’ and even a ‘nationalist ‘ Dante cropping up once again in the Italian public discourse.

Infrastructura Naturans. Architetture di trasformazione della circonvallazione di Palermo
2022
The article discusses the theoretical system that supports design themes and processes of recycling large urban road infrastructures, referring to an international research that frames them among the sustainable regeneration processes of the contemporary city, and further evoking the project for the transformation of Palermo's ring road that has been elaborated within this research. Witnesses of past urban seasons, these infrastructures are marked by a peculiar morphology that deserves to be maintained, while they must emancipate themselves from asphalt and adapt to new urban mobilities. By hybridizing vegetation and buildings as never before, the longest roadways in our urban contexts may …

Da questa si desume che un tempo gli scatti dei non professionisti, mediati dall'habitus di classe, intercettavano i momenti topici della vita sociale e le tipicità espresse da una cultura condivisa. Mentre le foto dei professionisti aspiravano a riconoscere i momenti decisivi in senso autoriale in vari ambiti (reportage, moda, paesaggio, pubblicità ). Oggi, in virtù dell'accelerazione sociale, siamo incerti sulla direzione della Storia. Tutti i fenomeni sono potenzialità del mondo, come tutte le immagini …
I sistemi delle classi d’età. Il contributo teorico di Bernardo Bernardi e la loro riscoperta contemporanea in chiave identitaria e patrimoniale
2020
This chapter considers Bernardi’s contribution to two different processes of traditional institutions revival in East Africa. He was the main ethnographer of the Mugwe, a traditional dignitary of the Meru of Kenya, that ceased to exist soon after his field work. He used the attribution ‘failing prophet’ in the title of the first edition of his book, changed into ‘blessing prophet’ in the following edition, having in the meanwhile registered a growing symbolic consideration for the institution. The history of the gadaa generational class system of the Oromo is intertwined with the Oromo liberation struggle. The institution never disappeared entirely, having remained operative among the Oromo…
