Un aperçu sur la légende du bois de la Croix. Les deux rédactions occitanes issues du Post peccatum Adae
2022
La Légende du boix de la Croix est sans doute l’un des récits apocryphes les plus célèbres et les plus répandus du Moyen Âge religieux. Et cela vaut aussi pour le contexte occitan médiéval. L’histoire du bois de la Croix, au moins dans la rédaction la plus large et développé au Moyen Âge, se trouve dans une œuvre en latin datant de la fin du XIIe siècle ou du début du XIIIe siècle: le Post peccatum Adae. La contribution concerne les rédactions occitanes de la Légende issues directement du Post peccatum Adae, à savoir les textes en prose Apres que Adam fon gitatz de paradis (ex. XIIIe siècle) et E pueys que Adam ac fag le peccat e ffon gitatz de paradis (XIVe siècle). En particulier, dans l’…
'L'ADAMO, OVVERO IL MONDO CREATO' DI TOMMASO CAMPAILLA. UN CONTRIBUTO AL RINNOVAMENTO DELLA CULTURA SCIENTIFICA E LETTERARIA IN SICILIA
2022
L’articolo analizza L’Adamo, ovvero il Mondo creato, poema scientifico-filosofico di Tommaso Campailla (1668-1740), accademico modicano, che partecipò con i suoi esperimenti scientifici e la sua opera letteraria a diffondere la filosofia cartesiana e le nuove mirabili scoperte in ogni campo del sapere. Nel poema Campailla ricorre al motivo tradizionale del viaggio di conoscenza per squadernare al Primo Uomo, Adamo, le straordinarie meraviglie della creazione, tentando una sintesi tra istanze scientifiche e nuove direttrici della poesia settecentesca.

2023
This chapter lists five works by scholars belonging to different fields history, economics, language and translation studies. About fifty scholars from all over the world, interested in studying the international reception of Smithian thought, took part in the meeting at Palermo to share their ideas, methods, sources and knowledge. In “Economy” and “Political Economy” in the Theory of moral sentiments and the wealth of nations, Luigi Alonzi analyses the semantic evolution of the word ‘oeconomy’ and the term ‘political oeconomy’ in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries by investigating their use in Adam Smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiments and Wealth of Nations.

Adam Smith and Gaetano Filangieri. Two alternatives face of enlightenment science of legislator
2017
The article proposes a comparison between the thought and works of Adam Smith and Gaetano Filangieri, two of the greatest exponents of European Enlightenment. We can find some important coincidences in their profiles. Smith and Filangieri met with outstanding international success and their works were translated into most known languages. Both were the main representative scholars of their respective schools: Scottish and the Neapolitan. Each of them planned to write a great work concerning the science of legislator but they died before completing it. Despite these resemblances, a deep difference is evident in their thought which makes their works paradigmatic of two different scientific vi…

Adam Smith and The Law
2013
The law is one of the main subjects in Adam Smith’s studies. He deals with it in the Lectures of Jurisprudence (LJ) and in the Wealth of the Nations (WN) and his ethical and philosophical premises are exposed in the Theory of Moral Sentiments (TMS). This interest in law is consistent with enlightenment culture which aspired to elaborate a great Science of Legislation in order to have enough knowledge to reform society and replace the Ancien Régime institutions with new ones able to support the course of progress and improve the life of the people. Yet, Smithian thought, while sharing the cultural aim of his age, is divergent from Juridical Enlightenment in many ways. I explain this divergen…
