Emerico Luna, an anatomist and a fervid intellectual
2004
On 11 March 2004, the Section of Human Anatomy of Palermo was dedicated and registered to the anatomist Emerico Luna (Palermo 1882-1963) with a ceremony (moderated by Giovanni Zummo) with the participation of institutional personalities and Italian anatomists. Luna, who was an acute morphologist and a scholar of Riccardo Versari (1865-1943), was the continuator of Francesco Todaro's Anatomical School and occupied the Chair at the University of Palermo that had belonged to Levi since 1919. His wide histo-anatomical culture culminates in the collaboration to the "Trattato di Neurologia", the richly composed treatise by Bertelli (1931). Then his studies and his teaching reached to the Anatomia…
The Jewish doctors involved in the development of health resorts in eastern Galicia at the late 19th and early 20th century (Central and Eastern Euro…
2018
Summary Background The involvement of Jewish doctors and scientists in the development of health resorts in eastern Galicia (part of the Austrian monarchy after 1772, and since 1918 as part of independent Poland, now part of Ukraine) is unquestionable; however, awareness of this fact is not that common. Meanwhile, also due to their work and activity, small borderland resorts became important medical, cultural and social centers of the region. The involvement of Jewish doctors in the development of Galician health resorts resulted from, among others, the rich and multi-layered tradition and integration of Judaism with the hygiene regulations and moral principles of the religion. The eastern …
L’imaginaire trichologique dans l’œuvre de Julien Green (1924-1930)
2015
I capelli e, per estensione, la pelosità occupano generalmente un ruolo importante nel campo dell'antropologia e dell'etnologia, dove sono oggetto di numerosi studi. Trovano anche un posto significativo nella categoria della descrizione e più specificamente in quella del ritratto. Nell’opera letteraria di Julien Green le notazioni sui capelli e, più in generale, sul sistema tricologico dei personaggi sono numerose e partecipano pienamente alla costituzione dell’ "effet-personnage". Questo articolo si propone di esaminare dettagliatamnte il rapporto che intrattengono nell'immaginario dell'autore attraverso una lettura dei suoi primi racconti (Christine, Le Voyageur sur la terre, Léviathan (L…

Féerie et désanchantement. Palerme arabe et grecque d’Anna de Noailles
2017
Nel 1908, Anna de Noailles intraprende un giro della Sicilia che suscita in lei vive emozioni. Palermo è la fonte privilegiata della sua profusione poetica, a tal punto che dodici delle poesie sulla Sicilia, parte della sezione Les Climats e della raccolta Les Vivants et le Morts (1913), quattro hanno come tema Palermo e altre tre fanno del capoluogo siciliano la tela di fondo. Palermo serve inoltre da sfondo a una bozza di romanzo, Octave. L'incanto iniziale si trasforma tuttavia pian piano in un disincanto che serpeggia in tutti suoi componimenti e che è traccia di una più profonda angoscia esistenziale. In 1908 Anna de Noailles starts a tour of Sicily that triggers her real emotions. Pal…
Memoria y ficción en El material humano de Rodrigo Rey Rosa: la representación imposible de la violencia en Guatemala
2017
El presente artículo analiza la novela de Rodrigo Rey Rosa, El material humano (2009), y la representación de la violencia que propone en su investigación sobre la realidad histórica de Guatemala a lo largo del siglo xx. El protagonista inicia una labor de indagación sobre las causas de la violencia de su país, para intentar comprender el origen del conflicto. Sin embargo, esta labor terminará con un triple fracaso: el cognoscitivo, el expresivo y el deontológico, representativos de toda una serie de narraciones sobre la memoria histórica en América Latina y España. This paper analyzes Rodrigo Rosa’s novel El material humano (2009), especially its representation of violence as seen through …
Lope de Vega y la historia en los escenarios de los siglos XX y XXI
2013
This paper aims to examine, on the one hand, the presence of Lope’s historical dramas on contemporary stage to confirm their continuity; and, on the other, to reflect on the distinctive features of the staging of these dramas from a specific corpus of performances dating from the last decades. The goal is to observe the current relevance of these dramas and performances, to study under what ethical and aesthetic assumptions characters are now represented and the historical episodes that Lope used in the creation of his fictions, as well as to analyze the possible connections between History, Lope and the audience of the 21st century.
Historical aspects of the translations and translators of Don Quixote in Germany in the 20th century
2013
Afirmar que toda Alemania conoce el Quijote, que por todas partes circulan traducciones de la obra, no es nada nuevo. Que el lector medio sepa cuántas traducciones existen o cuándo se llevó a cabo la versión que está leyendo, es algo extraño. Y más extraño todavía es que el lector sepa quién ha sido el traductor, a no ser que se trate de los “traductores estrella” de la literatura alemana, en el caso del Quijote, Ludwig Tieck, en otros casos, por ejemplo, August Wilhelm Schlegel, Arthur Schopenauer, Walter Benjamin o Stefan Zweig. Pero junto a estas “estrellas” ha habido un sinnúmero de buenos traductores a los que no se ha prestado la atención que quizá merecen. Nuestro trabajo pretende re…
Hjelmslev et la "fonction sémiotique", du modèle structural au modèle cognitif
2008
The article discusses the concept of semiotics function in Hjelmslev, finding sources of the theory of language’s stratification. The semiotic function, which is in Hjelmslev the principle underlying the dynamic layering, is identified here as both an attraction of two heterogeneous spaces and as a set of operations of sense’s establishment. At historiographic level, this article presents a new hypothesis of interpretation, that the hjelmslevian structuralism has not built a static theory of language, disinterested to the cognitive dimension, but a careful theory to operational aspects of semiosis.
