Dynamic aphasia in PSP: A deficit in generating a fluent sequence of novel thought
2006
We report a patient (KAS) who presented with pure dynamic aphasia in the context of progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). KAS had the hallmark propositional language impairment in the context of preserved naming, reading, repetition and comprehension skills. The severity of KAS's propositional language deficit was demonstrated to be comparable to other dynamic aphasic patients. Remarkably, despite virtually abolished propositional speech, KAS was unimpaired on word and sentence level generation tasks that required a single response. This dissociation was further investigated on two discourse level generation tasks that required the generation of multiple connected sentences. Quantitative pr…
Violenza di genere e femminicidio nelle narrazioni giudiziarie in Italia. Il punto di vista dei testimoni privilegiati
2020
L’articolo espone i primi risultati di una ricerca sulle rappresentazioni del femminicidio in ambito giudiziario in Italia, illustrandone il quadro teorico, le scelte metodologiche, l’impianto analitico, gli strumenti. Le problematiche connesse all’uso del termine femminicidio sono analizzate ponendo al centro il processo normativo, esplorandone i significati sociali e questionando gli ancoraggi politici e economici attraverso il modello del “campo giuridico”. Partendo dall’analisi di interviste condotte tra testimoni privilegiati, il discorso giuridico sulla violenza di genere è criticamente studiato come “ipotesi di significazione dell’agire sociale”, osservando i modi in cui “il contenut…
Violence against Women and Femicide: an analysis on the murders of foreign women in Italy
2022
AbstractThis paper presents the results of a research on the representations of femicide in the judicial field, in Italy. The use of the term femicide is analysed through the lens of the normative process, examining its social meanings and questioning its political and economic anchoring using the “juridical field” model (Bourdieu 1986). The essay is based on a wide theoretical framework. It starts by highlighting the problems evoked by the term ‘femicide’ (Corradi, et al. 2016; Radford and Russell 1992); its declension in criminal law and jurisprudence through its coding in specific types of offence (Merli 2015). The topics of power and imbalance between the sexes (Goffman 1977) are analys…
There's A Ghost In Every Mirror: The Identity of the Ghost In Hamlet
2009
Tutkielmassani käsittelen William Shakespearean näytelmän Hamlet keskeisen hahmon, Haamun, identiteettiä katolisessa ja protestanttisessa teologiassa eriävän kiirastuliopin kautta avautuvana ristiriitana. Tulkitsen Haamun hahmoa perinteistä skeptisemmästä näkökulmasta, jonka pohjalta pyrin löytämään tekstistä viitteitä siihen, että Haamun identiteetti ei missään vaiheessa ole suoraan johdettavissa siihen perinteiseen tulkintaan, jonka mukaan se olisi Hamletin isä. Pyrin valottamaan jo 1500-luvun lopulla Englannissa vaikuttaneen protestanttisen maailmankuvan valossa teoksen kuvauksia Haamun alkuperästä sekä analysoimaan, millä tavalla sen kanssa tekemisissä olevat henkilöhahmot siihen reago…
Los componentes del discurso en la Suma collaciones o de ayuntamientos
2016
El presente trabajo pretende estudiar la articulación del discurso en el Communiloquium de Juan de Gales y en su traducción castellana: la Suma de collaciones o de ayuntamientos o Libro del gobernador (ms. 12181 de la BNE). Este tratado para ayuda de los predicadores se caracteriza por la hábil imbricación de diferentes fragmentos tomados de fuentes grecolatinas: sentencias, definiciones, argumentaciones, similitudines y exempla. Estos últimos son objeto de un especial análisis. El autor cierra la puerta a los provenientes de la experiencia personal o de la tradición oral y recoge fundamentalmente los protagonizados por personajes de la antigu?edad clásica. Este apego a la letra escrita pru…
'Apparently, women don't know how to operate doors': a corpus-based analysis of women stereotypes in the tv series 3rd Rock from the Sun
2017
This paper explores how women stereotypes are discursively evaluated in the TV sitcom 3 rd Rock from the Sun by paying attention to the societal, cultural and ideological values they convey. Following recent trends for the study of television series (Bednarek, 2010), the analysis is both qualitative and quantitative, adopting a Corpus- Assisted Discourse Analysis approach (Baker, 2006; Partington, 2004). The contextualised analysis of words that refer to women confirms that the sitcom writers of 3 rd Rock from the Sun purposefully resort to stereotyping as a verbal strategy to create humour while conveying negative attitudes towards women.
“Some Women Are Born Fighters”: Discursive Constructions of a Fighter’s Identity by Female Finnish Judo Athletes
2017
Martial arts and combat sports have been traditionally associated with masculinity, and a range of contradictory meanings have been attached to women’s engagement and experiences. The present study draws on cultural praxis and feminist poststructuralist frameworks to explore how female martial artists are subjectified to dominant cultural discourses surrounding fighting and competition. Interviews with nine female judoka (judo athletes) were gathered in Finland and analyzed using Foucauldian Discourse Analysis (FDA). The FDA revealed that in female judoka talk, judo was constructed as a sport for all, but also as a male domain and a manly sport with fighting and competition as innate mascul…

Polish discourses concerning the Spanish Civil War. Analysis of the Polish press 1936-2015
2018
The Spanish Civil War of 1936–1939, as an ideologised and mythologised event, has been and is still used instrumentally within the Polish public discourse. The war was an important subject for the Polish press in the years 1936–1939. The Catholic, national-democratic, and conservative press supported General Franco’s rebellion. The governmental and pro-government press also supported the rebels. The Christian-democratic and peasants’ party press remained neutral. The social democratic, communist, and radical press backed the Spanish Republic — as did liberal-conservative organs such as Wiadomości Literackie. After the Second World War, the Polish communist media created the positive legend…
