Guillem Godi, "Si·l gen cors d’estieu es remas" (BdT 219.1)
2018
This article offers a new edition, based on Occitan Chansonnier R, of the canso-sirventes Si·l gen cors d’estieu es remas by the troubadour Guillem Godi. Moving from a textual and documentary analysis, as well as a material-philological perspective, the lectura proposes a later date for the composition (late 13th - early 14th century); moreover, a possible identification of the author with the cardinal Guillem de Peire Godin (1260-1336) is cautiously suggested.
Les adjectifs verbaux d’obligation (AVO) en védique, grec ancien et latin, d’un point de vue systématique
2017
The volume contains the proceedings of the conference about »Verbal adjectives and participles in Indo-European languages«, which took place in Paris, in September 2014, as a thematic symposium (»Arbeitstagung«) of the Society for Indo-European Studies (Indogermanische Gesellschaft/Société des Études Indo-Européennes). The aim of the conference was to highlight convergences and divergences in the treatment of verbal adjectives and participles across the Indo-European languages, modern as well as ancient.
IL "SICULO-ARABIC" E GLI ARABISMI MEDIEVALI E MODERNI DI SICLIA
2013
IL «SICULO ARABIC» E GLI ARABISMI SICILIANI MEDIEVALI E MODERNI Nell’ambito degli studi sulla vicenda storico-linguistica del periodo arabo-normanno in Sicilia, il saggio di Agius (1996), dal titolo Siculo Arabic, richiama l’attenzione sul Trattato di Ibn Makkī detto “il Mazarese”, rientrante nel filone dei “laḥn works”. Si tratta di opere volte a segnalare e correggere gli errori ricorrenti tra gli utenti delle diverse varietà di arabo, errori intesi come devianze dal modello classico. La possibilità di disporre di una discreta quantità di dati presumibilmente “siciliani” (dati “interferiti” e “sgrammaticati” possibilmente riconducibili a una “varietà ponte” tra l’arabo e gli arabismi dial…
ISO 639, Yosemite e App che “parlano” dialetto. Qualche reazione e riflessione
2016
Quale teoria e concezione del dialetto soggiace all’idea di descrivere il siciliano come «abbastanza distinto dall’italiano tipico tanto da poter essere considerato un idioma separato» (Ethnologue, MOSELEY e ASHER 1994, 54)? Un certo ruolo deve avere la distorta pratica di valutare le varietà dell’italoromanzo come dialetti dell’italiano, pratica, questa, che, per altro, induce a proporre separazioni e distinzioni al punto da invocare, per alcune di queste varietà, lo statuto di «lingue madri». Se poi queste “lingue”, nella prospettiva ecolinguistica, presentano una serie di condizioni che ne mettono a rischio la sopravvivenza, entrano ne “Il Libro Rosso delle lingue in pericolo” (Red Book …

La costruzione 'con + DP + pseudorelativa': proposta per una duplice interpretazione
2015
This chapter deals with the so-called "absolute construction", an adverbial prepositional phrase headed by the preposition 'con' ('with') followed by a noun and a pseudo-relative clause (e.g. "Con Maria che piange, non possiamo uscire"). The main aim of the chapter is to show that Pseudo-relative clauses can have three different structures, and that two different types are used in the absolute construction, depending on the degree of syntactic integration of the prepositional phrase in the main clause. Fronted 'con'-clauses select a pseudo-relative clause with clausal status (CP), while sentence-final 'con'-clauses, which are more integrated, select a pseudo-relative clause with nominal sta…
Foreign literature as poison: (self-)censorship in the translation of German popular fiction in Italy during the 1930s
2018
Between the 1920s and 1930s, the translation of foreign contemporary novels into Italian was encouraged by publishers, meeting the needs of a new readership, which was larger and more heterogeneous than before the war. However, the sharp rise in the number of imported novels provoked strong disapproval. In a context of heightened nationalism and cultural autocracy, translation was considered a polluting, anti-patriotic and servile practice. The censorship that took place, however, was mostly implemented via a tacit compromise between the publishers and the regime, rather than by repressive institutional actions. In order to protect themselves from sanctions and requisitions, publishers and …

Usurping the victim's trauma narrative: Victim blaming and slut-shaming on season 1 of You
2020
The American TV series You (2018-) has been the subject of a heated debate on both social media and Academia in regard to its ambiguous approach to feminism and gender violence, due to its prioritization of the perpetrator’s voice over the victim’s (Rajiva and Patrick 2019). In the present context of feminist activism, with movements such as #MeToo and Time’s Up fostering female solidarity and giving voice to survivors of sexual violence, the series appears to have an opposite, and even sexist, agenda. Drawing on the concept of ‘trauma narratives’ (Vickroy 2004; Kohlke and Gutleben 2010), I argue that the first season of the show fails to grant the female victim, Beck, a therapeutic space w…
Views selection for SIFT based object modeling and recognition
2016
In this paper we focus on automatically learning object models in the framework of keypoint based object recognition. The proposed method uses a collection of views of the objects to build the model. For each object the collection is composed of N×M views obtained rotating the object around its vertical and horizontal axis. As keypoint based object recognition using a complete set of views is computationally expensive, we focused on the definition of a selection method that creates, for each object, a subset of the initial views that visually summarize the characteristics of the object and should be suited for recognition. We select the views by determining maxima and minima of a function, …
