Comunicazione e divulgazione della ricerca scientifica applicata all’archeologia : il punto di vista degli young researchers
2017
International audience; What is the relationship between science and communication? And how important are cultural dissemination tools for the research survival? Recently, the archaeological study has undergone a substantial change, thanks to the introduction of non-invasive digital surveying techniques as well as physical and chemical analyses. It became therefore necessary to form a new archaeologist able to use them and to dialogue with new professional figures that move in the same direction. Also, it’s essential to promote the communication expert figures, which linked the scientific world and the public at large. Actually, Digital storytelling is a learning tool increasingly used by m…
'There's a [Space] For Us': Place and Space in Screen Versions of Romeo and Juliet in the Spanish 1960s: West Side Story (R. Wise and J. Robbins, 196…
2020
International audience; This article examines the critical reception of the film adaptation of West Side Story (Jerome Robbins and Robert Wise, 1961) in Spanish culture and cinematography. It looks into two other screen versions of Romeo and Juliet: Los Tarantos (Francesc Rovira-Beleta, 1963) and No somos ni Romeo ni Julieta (Alfonso Paso, 1969). West Side Story remains in the Spanish cultural memory as a filmic event associated with the arrival of foreign influence amidst national-catholic dictatorship. I will use the variables “place” and “space,” which distinguish, on one hand, proper orders established by authority and, on the other hand, areas transformable by interactions and changes,…

«Un tempestar di colpi sull’uscio». La meccanica di Carlo Emilio Gadda
2021
In una nota di presentazione dedicata ai lettori di Solaria, Gadda spiega che La meccanica «è l’espressione della [sua] amarezza esasperata di italiano, di nazionalista, di soldato, per il “male” che precedette l’intervento e stagnò sulla guerra, mefitico». Fra la Milano del 1915 e il fronte si sviluppano i diversi blocchi narrativi del romanzo nei quali viene declinato, con il proposito di “interessare il grosso pubblico” il tema della guerra e si sviluppa la poetica dello spazio dello scrittore topografo. Il saggio ne pedina le dinamiche compositive, le scelte formali le strategie stilistiche. A dare il via al racconto e all’analisi è il «tempestar di colpi sull’uscio» della bellissima Zo…

2020
Three artists in exile focuses on the historical diaspora provoked by the Spanish civil war (1936- 1939), and how it influenced three prominent figures of the cultural scene of that period: the writer and typographer Max Aub Mohrenwitz (Paris, 1903-Ciudad de Mexico, 1972); the architect Félix Candela Outeriño (Madrid, 1910-Raleigh, US, 1977); and the artist Josep Renau Berenguer (Valencia, 1907-Berlín, 1982). They are the three protagonists of this article, who were simultaneously living in Mexico during the exile and who made notable contributions in the fields of arts and humanities (Max Aub), architecture (Félix Candela), and graphic design and photomontage (Josep Renau). While they were…
The Book Between Media Convergence, Media Specificity, and Diverse Reading Communities in Present-Day US Culture
2019
Drawing on empirical studies and statistical analyses of how digitization has restructured the American publishing industry during the last decade, Christoph Blasi considers the book’s current position in media culture from the perspective of book studies. He surveys the latest research on the development of print book production, on the market competition between printed books and e-books, and on the differences between screen and print reading. Noting that communication practices and circuits of book value creation have changed in the wake of digitization, Blasi also highlights the significant function that print books possess in the contemporary media ecology—both as part of transmedia s…

What is the value of plurilingualism?
2016
This article seeks to answer the question, 'What is the value of plurilingualism'? by first of all exploring some different terms from Finnish and English that suggest different ways of understanding the world. The article then goes on to outline the importance of mother tongues as a way of rooting a child into a culture, whilst plurilingualism provides the child with different ways of understanding the world. The second half of the article uses a story to explore the challenges of sharing different understandings with others and outlines how these ideas can be introduced to children. nonPeerReviewed
