Drawing and Project at the VChUTEMAS. Graphic Interpretations
2019
The article deals with the graphic study of the project for the Kominern Palace designed in 1929 by Lidija Komarova, one of the students of the Russian Laboratories known by the acronym VChUTEMAS, founded in 1920 in Moscow. Strongly characterized by the revolutionary atmosphere that was delineating the artistic progress based on the synthesis of all the plastic arts, the Russian Laboratories attributed to the architecture a position of the first order, a perfect association between the scientific possibility and the art technique. The redrawing of this project allows to deepen the compositional principles of the new architectural formation of the Eastern European avant-garde, providing digi…

La cattedrale di Troina: prima sperimentazione architettonica Normanna in Sicilia
2019
International audience; At the time of the conquest of Sicily, ruled by Arabs for two centuries, Roger de Hauteville placed in Troina his first capital (1062), made the town becoming episcopal see. For this purpose, he founded in the town a cathedral church, too. However, the original aspect of the building changed deeply because of earthquakes: collapse and significant alterations occurred between the 15th and 18th centuries, causing the current architectural form. In this paper, thanks to the study of sources, the direct analysis of the building and the interpretation of the new acquired informations, some aspects of building's architectural history are clarified; in addition, a new hypot…
Synchronous Worlds
2021
In the Mediterranean basin, the archaeological presence is extremely relevant and diffuse. Together with this is a difficult intertwining with contemporary urban settlements, which archaeology, by tradition, has to be protected from. If conservation is the goal of restoration, the problem of the cohabitation between past and present use is still an issue. This paper will focus on the project of enhancement of the archaeological park of the Greek colony of Naxos, near Messina, in Sicily, led by the Department of Architecture of the University of Palermo in cooperation with the administrative head of the park. At the crossroads between the sea, the highway, a lemon orchard and the city of Gi…
Tòpics retòrics dels textos hagiogràfics bizantins i catalans
2018
Resum: El present treball analitza comparativament els principals tòpics retòrics presents als pròlegs de textos hagiogràfics bizantins i catalans. El punt de partença és la consolidació del gènere hagiogràfic com a tal en la literatura grega tardo-antiga i d’època bizantina i la seua influència sobre el desenvolupament de l’hagiografia en Occident, primer en llatí i després en les llengües romàniques a partir de l’Edat Mitjana. En aquest sentit, podrem observar l’ús d’un mateix repertori de caràcter retòric per presentar i embellir el text i analitzarem l’explicació d’aquest fenomen i les perspectives d’estudi a explorar.

El movimiento libertario español y sus manifestaciones políticas: El Partido Sindicalista como caso excepcional.
2021
In this article we analyze the Pestaña’s Syndicalist Party (SP) to better clarify some of the doctrinal contours of the heterogeneous libertarian movement. To do this, we first define a framework, understanding the libertarian movement as a political culture where we have established antipoliticism as one of its fundamental principles. Subsequently, after reviewing some of the political manifestations of the libertarian movement, we completed that framework by observing how this principle was reviewed in its practices to achieve its goals. With the study of SP’s primary sources we observe how it also emerged by reviewing anarchist antipoliticism as an instrument to achieve its objectives, b…

Les " mausolées " de Salone et de Split
2012
Although abbot Martin is supposed to have collected and brought it all to Rome, as pope John IV had asked him to, the relics of salonitan martyrs are venerated since the Early Middle Ages in Split cathedral, settled in the octagon of Diocletian’s Palace, in the ager of Salona, former capital of Roman Dalmatia. Both main martyrs of the ancient city, first bishop Domnio and Anastasius fullonicus, are the medieval patrons of the cathedral beside Virgin Mary. Anastasius had previously been buried in a private mausoleum on the necropolis of Marusinac - mausoleum which gave birth to a pilgrimage ecclesial complex including a basilica gemina. Having first looked for graves ad sanctos at Manastirin…
Le monastère Saint-Pierre d’Osor (île de Cres) : neuvième campagne d’études archéologiques
2015
During the 2014 campaign exhaustive excavations of the early medieval mausoleum and monastic tombs situated between the mausoleum and the bell tower south of the abbey church of St Peter in Osor were completed. The results of the excavation of the interior of the reduced church revealed several floor levels that are contemporary to the Romanesque basilica, as well as the foundations of the Romanesque chancel screen situated in front of the north apse, and the presence of many burials. Some of them can be identified as privileged tombs, due to their position and their contents. Several floor levels corresponding to the phases anterior to the Romanesque church were also discovered, although i…
