A Comparative Facebook Content Analysis between Romanian and Western European Airline Carriers
2014
This research aims to investigate the different social media strategies adopted by the airline companies from two European regions. In the attempt to land more customers on their social media runway, drive more sales from social media content, increase customer satisfaction through a high response rate or increase their brand awareness, the airlines combine creativity and high-quality ideas to better promote their products and services to customers all around the globe. The paper analyses the content (number of fans, posts, number of likes, the dynamics of comments, response rate) on the Facebook pages of Tarom, Blue Air, Wizz Air, Lufthansa, Austrian Airlines, KLM International and Air Eur…

L'adriatico e la ricerca dell'identità nazionale in musica
2004
The author analyses Friedrich Meinecke's concepts of 'Staatsnation' and 'Kulturnation' in relation to tendencies of nationalism and cosmopolitanism in Italian, Slavic and German music in the region of the North Adriatic under the Absburg administration from 1860 to 1918 (Trieste, Istria, Rijeka/Fiume, Dalmazia). With regard to nationalism, the biographies of Ivan von Zajc and Nikola Strmic, both supporters of Italian opera and later proponents of the national Croatian opera (Strmic only for a short period), are useful exemplars.Other composers, such as the Italian Antonio Smareglia and the Slovenian Marij Kogoj, kept faith with the cosmopolitan idea of the Austrian intellectuals (typical al…
Conflicting molecular phylogenies of European long-eared bats (Plecotus) can be explained by cryptic diversity
2002
Abstract Conflicting phylogenetic signals of two data sets that analyse different portions of the same molecule are unexpected and require an explanation. In the present paper we test whether (i) differential evolution of two mitochondrial genes or (ii) cryptic diversity can better explain conflicting results of two recently published molecular phylogenies on the same set of species of long-eared bats (genus Plecotus). We sequenced 1714 bp of three mitochondrial regions (16S, ND1, and D-loop) of 35 Plecotus populations from 10 European countries. A likelihood ratio test revealed congruent phylogenetic signals of the three data partitions. Our phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that the exis…
Learning to synthesise contradictions: an Austrian approach to bridging time concepts in the strategic theory of the firm
2012
Moving from an inquiry on the notions of time underlying strategy studies, in this paper we lay the groundwork for the elaboration of a multitemporal view of the firm. We draw on the Austrian process view in economic studies and on Nonaka's idea of synthesising capabilities to formulate a methodological framework which consents the elaboration of a multitemporal view of the resource-based firm, in which different time concepts are bridged and main actor behaviours crucial for prolonged firm success are encompassed. We then show how the multitemporal view of the firm which emerges from the deployment of the integration of the Austrian and Nonakian approaches consents the reinterpretation and…
Navegando hacia Italia. El Reino de Cerdeña en el escenario político resultante de los tratados de Utrecht – Rastatt
2014
En 1713 finalizaba la administración de Carlos VI, ejercida desde Barcelona; por ello las disposiciones de gobierno, que habían llegado a la isla desde la capital catalana, dejaban de hacerlo. Con la institución en Viena, en 1714, del Consejo de España, los referentes territoriales y políticos del reino sardo serán sobre todo: Milán o Nápoles; con el espacio italiano ampliará sus lazos, sustituyendo aquellos que durante siglos había mantenido con los territorios ibéricos. Paralelamente Cerdeña pasaba a ser moneda de cambio en la búsqueda de un nuevo equilibrio territorial y político. La sombra imperial la mantuvo a salvo en Utrecht. Sin embargo la ruptura de ese equilibrio por parte de Feli…
Sicilia austriaca 1720-1734
2021
From 1720 to 1734, the island of Sicily was under the control of the Austrian Habsburgs. The political and historical aspects of this brief period have been the subject of a number of studies, which have established the necessary foundation to pursue new prospects and directions for further scholarship. However, our understanding of the range of artistic and architectural interventions undertaken – or hypothetically undertaken – by the Austrian Habsburg government in Sicily is drastically more limited. If direct commissions, travels, architects' and aristocrats' mobility to the Viennese court and even documented contacts constitute a first degree of evidence, a further field is linked to th…
Michelangelo Blasco versus Ferdinando Fuga: una nuova attribuzione per il ponte sul Milicia in Sicilia
2015
The finding at the National Library of Spain of an eighteenth-century engraving of the bridge over the river Milicia, along the coast to the east of Palermo, is a chance not only to shed light on the complex history of the design and construction of one of the main Sicilian bridges, but also to attribute the real paternity rather than to the famous architect Ferdinando Fuga to the lesser-known military engineer, serving the Austrian Crown, Michelangelo Blasco, whose long and successful career is reconstructed: from Sicily, through Milan, Wien and Lisbon, to the uncharted territory of Brazil.
Francesco, Franz, Ritter Franz von Hayez: Zur Rezeption des Romanticismo Storico in der deutschsprachigen Publizistik
2021
After Canova’s death (1822), Italian contemporary art, especially painting, suffered from the widespread topos that Italy as “terre des morts” had frozen in historical self-reflection and therefore did not meet the demands of modern “romantic” art. One of the few internationally recognized exceptions was Francesco Hayez (1791–1882), whose history painting virtuosically combined modern literary subjects with elements derived from the Venetian tradition, such as the gestures of Canova and the colorfulness of Venetian Quattro and Cinquecento painting. His images, which are relevant from a historical, literary but also political point of view, have achieved great success at the regular exhibiti…
Predgovor/Foreword
2016
Nel corso del XIX secolo l'idea di popolo e l'idea di nazione hanno prodotto la nascita di nuovi orientamenti nella musica dei paesi slavi della Mitteleuropa. Le fonti cui si sono ispirati i fautori dei movimenti nazionali in Germania, Austria, Polonia, Cekia, Slovenia e Croazia sono state descritte come popolari, ma si tratta in realtà di musiche folkloriche, devozionali, brani d'opera e brani d'autore, che furono usati anche nella musica d'arte (opere e sinfonie), con l'unico scopo di attestare i principi identitari essenziali per la formazione dei futuri stati dopo la caduta dell'impero austro-ungarico. La storia e le tradizioni dei paesi sopra elencati non hanno quasi nulla in comune, s…
