Serve ancora ucidere i tiranni? A proposito di Ps. Quint. decl. min. 253
2018
The paper deals with Ps. Quint. decl. min. 253; in the text, concerning one of the best-known themes of the declamatory literature, a tyrannicide, after killing a tyrant, asks the community for approval of a rogatio in order to be sent to the tyrant of the nearby city. The declamation focuses on a hero willing to put the salvation of the community before his own, a theme certainly usual in Latin thought, but which traces new interpretative ways in the declamatory culture.

Le riforme istituzionali nel Mediterraneo del VI sec. a.C. La nascita di uno spazio politico a Roma e ad Atene
Il proposito principale di questa ricerca è quello di presentare le riforme del VI sec. a.C. in una prospettiva allargata, che potremmo definire “mediterranea”. Questa prospettiva intende far emergere, anche attraverso un confronto fra l’esperienza romana e greca (in particolare Ateniese), influenze e condizionamenti che, in larga parte provenienti dalle sponde orientali del Mediterraneo, influirono notevolmente sulla storia di Roma, contribuendo a determinare la nascita di una sfera propriamente politica per quanto riguarda il governo cittadino. La ricerca attraverso quest’impostazione che potremmo definire comparatistica, intende vagliare similitudini e differenze tra esperienza romana ed…
Marka Tullija Cicerōna runas pret Katilīnu
1939
"Pirmā runa, ko viņš teica senātā, sašutuma pārņemts, kad ieraudzīja tur ieradušos Katilīnu, ir tulkota pilnīgi. Pārējās centos pēc iespējas izsmeļoši atstāstīt. Visām runām pievienoju komentārus, kādus man likās nepieciešami, lai tās ilustrētu, beigās ziņas par Cicerōna dzīvi un darbiem kā arī vēsturiskus datus par Katilīnas sazvērestību." / sastādītājs un komentētājs Verners Ābele/
SPEECH AND SILENCE IN CICERO’S FINAL DAYS
2014
Composed in spring of 46 BC, Cicero’s Brutus emphasizes oratorical silence, in stark contrast with the prominence of the speech act found in the Pro Marcello and first Philippic. Yet in the face of those difficult times and amidst the silence that such times engender, Cicero ironically finds his voice. This paper will demonstrate Cicero’s acute awareness, in his final days, of the need to employ his rediscovered voice in light of eloquence’s changed role in Rome’s new political climate.

Venerari Contendere Adicere: Roman Emulation, Intergenerational Reciprocity, and the Ancient Idea of Progress
2019
Over the past few decades, the successful emergence of intertextuality, with its careful investigation of the dynamics of imitation, allusion, and emulation, has effectively challenged the Romantic notions of creativity and individual authorship. In the wide-open field left by the postmodern ‘death of the author’, however, the territory of culture as a network of patterns hiding behind the text has often been restricted within the boundaries of literary culture. In this paper, I will attempt to enlarge such a text-centred perspective by highlighting the often neglected connections between family education, intergenerational reciprocity, and aesthetic thought in Roman culture. Indeed, long b…

Experiences with CiceRobot, a Museum Guide Cognitive Robot
2005
The paper describes CiceRobot, a robot based on a cognitive architecture for robot vision and action. The aim of the architecture is to integrate visual perception and actions with knowledge representation, in order to let the robot to generate a deep inner understanding of its environment. The principled integration of perception, action and of symbolic knowledge is based on the introduction of an intermediate representation based on Gardenfors conceptual spaces. The architecture has been tested on a RWI B21 autonomous robot on tasks related with guided tours in the Archaeological Museum of Agrigento. Experimental results are presented.
