Family business branding : communicating a family-based brand identity
2017
Scholars suggest that family-owned businesses can capitalize on their family ties by promoting the fact that they are family-owned in their marketing communications. Existing research suggests that promoting the familial component of a family-owned business can evoke positive associations with the business' stakeholders, increase employee loyalty and motivation, and be a source of competitive advantage against non-family businesses. Although there is an increasing awareness that family-owned businesses can benefit from promoting the fact that they are family-owned in their marketing and branding efforts, very little literature exists on how such a strategy is effectively implemented. By app…
“I due volti di Eva”. L’educazione al femminile nella filmografia italiana degli anni Cinquanta.
2018
Attraverso lo studio della filmografia italiana degli anni Cinquanta, è possibile ricostruire le identità di genere che, in un tempo così attraversato da profonde trasformazioni, si andavano ridefinendo. Infatti, in questo periodo nasceva e si sviluppava il cinema di massa, che diventava il principale terreno di azione culturale: strumento di costruzione dell’identità collettiva ed esperienza condivisa che creava legami, esso era soprattutto uno spazio educativo. In particolare, il cinema registrava il profondo mutamento in corso dell’identità femminile e del rapporto tra i generi, a volte ostacolandolo, altre volte anticipandolo o favorendolo. I due generi cinematografici più popolari di q…
Il pranzo di Babele. Misunderstanding nel film "Il pranzo di Babette"
2013
“Il pranzo di Babette” (1987), trasposizione cinematografica del regista danese Gabriel Axel dell’omonimo racconto di Karen Blixen, inizialmente contenuto nella raccolta di scritti “Anectodes of Destiny” pubblicato a firma Isak Dinensen (pseudonimo della sua autrice) ha riscosso un unanime consenso di critica e pubblico, vincendo prestigiosi premi quali l’Oscar come miglior film straniero e la menzione speciale della giuria ecumenica del festival di Cannes, sbancando i botteghini in giro per il mondo. Il film è diventato un grande classico del cinema culinario, in grado di radicarsi nel senso comune e diventare pertanto fonte di ispirazione per letterati e cinefili che ne hanno analizzato …
Almost polynomial growth: Classifying varieties of graded algebras
2015
Let G be a finite group, V a variety of associative G-graded algebras and c (V), n = 1, 2, …, its sequence of graded codimensions. It was recently shown by Valenti that such a sequence is polynomially bounded if and only if V does not contain a finite list of G-graded algebras. The list consists of group algebras of groups of order a prime number, the infinite-dimensional Grassmann algebra and the algebra of 2 × 2 upper triangular matrices with suitable gradings. Such algebras generate the only varieties of G-graded algebras of almost polynomial growth, i.e., varieties of exponential growth such that any proper subvariety is polynomially bounded. In this paper we completely classify all sub…

Introduzione di "La Grande Guerra nella Stampa Mondiale"
2020
Il presente libro si configura come un ulteriore prodotto del Network Internazionale Memità che vuole rendere omaggio al centenario della Prima Guerra Mondiale attraverso l’analisi della misura in cui la stampa abbia giocato un ruolo significativo nella costruzione di un’immagine del conflitto ad uso e consumo propagandistico dei governi di riferimento. La stampa di quel periodo si è resa protagonista della narrazione del conflitto e, per la sua natura di strumento di divulgazione, in essa è possibile riscontrare la massima porosità tra il concetto linguaggio e quello di ideologia. Il discorso giornalistico si configura, quindi, come uno dei mezzi d’elezione in cui viene esercitato sul lett…
Growing Up to Belong Transnationally: Parent Perceptions on Identity Formation Among Latvian Emigrant Children in England
2019
AbstractAs a result of the wide availability of social media, cheap flights and free intra-EU movement it has become considerably easier to maintain links with the country of origin than it was only a generation ago. Therefore, the language and identity formation among children of recent migrants might be significantly different from the experiences of children of the previous generations. The aim of this paper is to examine the perceptions of parents on the formation of national and transnational identity among the ‘1.5 generation migrant children’ – the children born in Latvia but growing up in England and the factors affecting them. In particular, this article seeks to understand whether…
A Polysystemic Study of Folk Literature in Nineteenth-Century Norway
1999
The Norwegian Folktales, collected, transcribed and re-written by Per Christian Asbjørnsen and Jørgen Moe from 1842, had a pivotal role in the shaping of a cultural and linguistic identity in the emerging nation-state. After four centuries of ‘union’ where Denmark and Sweden were the dominant partners, Norway was finally declared an independent nation state in 1914. The folktales, handed down orally through the generations across the country, embodied important symbolical, cultural and linguistic characteristics from the rural environment. The paper describes the context and process through which The Norwegian Folktales influenced both the emerging natonal identity and the emerging Norwegia…
Geography of Emotions Across the Black Mediterranean: Oral Memories and Dissonant Heritages of Slavery and the Colonial Past
2019
AbstractThis contribution is dedicated to analysing oral memories about the Black Mediterranean through interviews with people from or culturally linked to the Horn of Africa. The aim is to consider how the interviewees make use of archives to voice their feelings about the past and present in Africa and Europe. I introduce the concept of a “geography of emotions” as a set of different perceptions of Europe and its past. The mobilization of these memories in new interpretative perspectives is part of a dissonant heritage which is actively working inside the European borders in order to produce new cultural identities, to reiterate forms of belonging to black diasporic communities, and to in…
Identitetens uppklarnande och kulturvärden
1987
Pulkkinen, L.: Identity achievement and cultural values. Nordisk Psykologi, 1987, 39 (3), 186–202. Relationships between identity achievement and cultural values were studied with 240 young adults. A questionnaire contained a scale for Identity Achievement modified from Crotevant & Adams' (1984) EOM-EIS and questions concerning the importance of various values (e.g. religious, scientific) for one's life, and expectations about and fears of the future. LISREL analyses revealed that Identity Achievement was divided into two components, ethical (friendship, religion) and functional identity (sex roles, politics), rather than ideological and interpersonal identity suggested by Grotevant and Ada…
