Orsi polari tra fantasia e realtà: i casi di SAID e Yoko Tawada
2020
This article examines the particular relationship that the German-Japanese writer Yoko Tawada and the German-Iranian writer SAID have with their second homeland, Germany. I also analyze how writers tell the experience of migration through the fantastic story of polar bears. SAID writes in the fairytale Schneebären lügen nie, 2013, of a fantastic encounter between a little girl and a lost polar bear and Tawada tells in the novel Etüden im Schnee, 2014, of three generations of polar bears and their experiences in different countries.

Telling Monte Pellegrino, sacred space
2013
This article is an analysis of the sacred space of Monte Pellegrino in Palermo, on a narrative perspective. It focuses on three places in particular, the shrine of Santa Rosalia, a castle overlooking the town of Palermo, and a viewpoint for tourists and citizens overhanging the sea. This mountain represents the deep identity of the town of Palermo. Studying its semiotic form means, then, getting into the identity of the town itself through the tales and the spaces which constitutes it as a meaningful scenario.

Wyjątkowość doświadczenia śmierci w artystycznych grach wideo
2015
Video games present different meanings of death than those conditioned by social and cultural contexts. Most games treat the motif of death instrumentally. Therefore, death is usually a norm and a rule in typical video games. However, art games present a different sense of death, one that defies its conventional meanings. The article analyses the different presentations of death in three art games: "Passage" (Rohrer, 2007), "The Graveyard" (Tale of Tales, 2008) and "Queers in Love at the End of the World" (Anthropy, 2013). These productions prove that video games are an excellent medium to offer players a deep emotional experience, which can also encourage taking a fundamental and more prof…
“Allochronic Views of Native Americans; or, Vanished Vanishing Indians in The Last of the Mohicans”
2016
James Fenimore Cooper’s The Last of the Mohicans; A Narrative of 1757, first published in 1826, offers an archetypal example, perhaps the archetypal example, of a literary expression of the trope of the Vanishing Indian. This theme is present in many works of nineteenth-century American literature that include Native Americans as their subjects, but Cooper’s romance, whose very title evokes the disappearance of an entire tribe, takes the sad fate of North America’s indigenous peoples as one o...
Onomatopeya, imitación y poesía en Grecia y Roma
2019
A partir de Platón se desarrolla en la reflexión gramatical y filosófica griega la idea de que ciertos vocablos tienen un origen onomatopéyico, tomándose como modelo de su uso (tanto por su conveniencia como por su condena) su aparición en el epos homérico. Mientras la filosofía vinculará tales palabras, entendidas como onomatopeyas, al origen del lenguaje, los autores de poética y gramática las estudiarán como elementos significativos en la valoración estética de la poesía. La doctrina griega sobre la onomatopeya pasará, a su vez, a las letras latinas.
Radošais darbs ar pasakām vācu valodas kā svešvalodas stundās vidusskolā skolēnu mācību motivācijas paaugstināšanai
2015
Pētījums veltīts skolnieku radošajam darbam ar pasakām vācu valodas kā svešvalodas stundās vidusskolā skolēnu mācību motivācijas paaugstināšanai. Tas sastāv no ievada un divām daļām – no teorētiskās un no praktiskās daļas. Ievadā tiek formulēts darba mērķis un uzdevumi, izvirzīta hipotēze un raksturotas pētīšanas metodes. Teorētiskajā daļā aplūkoti jautājumi, kas saistīti ar pasaku kā literāru žanru un teksta specifiku: žanra vispārīgs raksturojums, pasakas izmantošanas iespējas vācu valodas mācību procesā, pasakas kā īpaša teksta veida interpretācijas iespējas ar atbilstošu satura nostiprināšanu. Tiek iztirzātas arī metodikas problēmas (mācīšanās stratēģiju, metožu un paņēmienu izvēle), ka…
