I servizi speciali di «In Architettura»
2010
In the great multi-voiced conversation on architecture, Culotta asks himself: «What is the city? - and he continues - The city is the place of representation of the social form» of the community. The text is a profound reflection on the social role of the architect, on his public responsibility, torn between the awareness of the need for the standard as a "reference material" in the technical space of production and the cultivation of the intimate part of the designer where creation takes place , as an artistic discipline, and where uncomfortable truths also emerge, such as the recognition of a real ability to intervene, understood as sensitivity to the complexity of the architectural quest…
I materiali di «In Architettura»

This section reproduces a selection of texts from the vast apparatus of writings that formed the outline of the main rubrics. These are mainly informative articles or articles relating to specific events or artefacts which contributed to making the journalistic aspect effective, as an information tool on facts and characters of architecture, even if in some cases there is no lack of more in-depth compositions which can be assimilated to essay-type writings.

2010
Indexes and cataloging of « In Architettura. Il giornale della progettazione» the magazine founded by Pasquale Culotta together with a group of young architects in Cefalù in 1979. Up until 1993, the year of publication of the last issue, the periodical represented a precious place for debate and comparison, a tool for questioning the profession of architect, the meaning of doing and teaching, as well as an opportunity to establish contacts with distant realities, making the young Sicilian architecture an internationally known avant-garde.
La ricostruzione dell'abside in alcuni esempi della seconda metà del XVI secolo a Palermo
2015
Il contributo ha l’obiettivo di studiare alcuni casi di ricostruzione dell’abside eseguiti in edifici chiesastici palermitani nella seconda metà del XVI secolo. Si tratta delle chiese di San Sebastiano, San Francesco d’Assisi e San Martino delle Scale (all’interno dell’omonima abbazia), in cui, nella seconda metà del Cinquecento, per motivi liturgici, l’abside originaria viene “trasformata”, in un’abside “piatta”, al fine di potervi inserire il Coro ligneo. Il nuovo posizionamento del Coro, in conseguenza della Riforma tridentina - problematica centrale nell’Europa di età moderna – suscita, anche in questi casi palermitani, dibattiti e controversie. Il cambiamento della forma dell’abside de…
Agamennone βουληφόρος? La sovranità alla prova del processo deliberativo
2022
Starting with the Iliad, Agamemnon is mostly depicted at the centre of dramatic deliberative situations. This feature is also present in fifth-century literature, particularly in some plays in which Agamemnon’s decision-making ability in uncertainty comes into tension with other characters in order to determine the ‘right’ decision and adequate leadership features. In this paper, I will focus on the Euripides’ play Iphigenia in Aulis (405 a.C.). In this tragedy the behaviour of the Achaean king draws our attention, as he is not equipped to handle his role and responsibilities. In the same years, also historiography is interested in the nature and risks of the deliberative process, as Thucyd…
Libanio tra attualità e tradizione. L’orazione IX
2022
Libanius’ speech IX reveals the persistence in Libanius of the interest in the religious dimension, free from the polemical tones adopted elsewhere. A global cosmic perspective pervades the speech. The Kalendae Ianuarie festival, marking the beginning of the new year, was a parenthesis of joy and carefreeness for all the inhabitants of the empire, regardless of their religious beliefs. The relevance of this anniversary as a vehicle of imperial ideology for the unity of the empire could explain Theodosius’ rescript of 389 to the praefectus Urbis Romae Albinus on the legal calendar of Rome, which, including not only Easter, but also the Kalendae, would have surprised Libanius himself first. T…
Il tarantismo in Sicilia
2017
Il testo prende in esame il complesso di materiali editi e inediti (fonti storiche e archivistiche, documenti musicali, testimonianze etnografiche) che attestano la presenza del tarantismo in Sicilia dalla metà del Seicento alla fine dell’Ottocento. Il caso siciliano viene quindi inquadrato nell’ambito dell’ampia letteratura che ruota intorno al fenomeno, a partire dal classico studio di Ernesto De Martino fino al dibattito sull’interpretazione del fenomeno fra i poli dell’esorcismo e della possessione, dovuto soprattutto all’etnomusicologo francese Gilber Rouget. L’analisi viene quindi estesa alla tradizione dei guaritori dei morsi di serpenti (i ciaràuli), che con il tarantismo condividon…
