Prevention of hate speech crimes: digital versus real-life environment
2022
Extending the use of social media and other digital networks, as well as technology development and the impact of the pandemic have raised the problem of how to prevent hateful speech from occurring. Limitations on hate speech closely correlate with restriction of freedom of speech, therefore balance between the two should be met to ensure both fundamental democratic right on the freedom of speech, as well as to restrict limitations on one’s honour, dignity and safety. To answer whether mechanisms for combating the crimes of hate speech in the digital environment are as effective as they are in a real-life situation, the author analyses the international (United Nations) and Council of Euro…

Edizioni, traduzioni e censure: Cicognara, i fratelli Giachetti e l’editoria artistica di inizio Ottocento
2018
This article focuses on Leopoldo Cicognara's role as an advisor of the Italian publisher Giachetti (Prato).

The documentary appendix includes a complete transcription of all reports by the Florentine censor p. Mauro Bernardini.
La corte vicereale di Sicilia tra pubblico e privato: dinamiche cortigiane, ruoli, poteri
2021
Il saggio delinea alcuni caratteri della corte del viceré in Sicilia in età asburgica: la sua famiglia, la cerchia dei confidenti, composizione e articolazione dei ruoli istituzionali, costi, forme del coinvolgimento. Ne emerge un contesto articolato, uno scenario in cui si confrontavano poteri di diversa intensità e in competizione sul territorio, si determinavano scontri giurisdizionali, dispute patrimoniali e accordi matrimoniali, liti e vendette private: elementi che evidenziano la complessità del rapporto fra nobiltà periferica e potere centrale, relazioni interpersonali e reti di livello internazionale, pratiche negoziali diffuse, che confermano la rappresentazione di un regno niente …
Gertrude Bonnin on Sexual Morality
2021
This paper examines attitudes to sexual morality held by the Yankton Dakota author and activist Gertrude Bonnin (1876–1938), better known by her penname Zitkála-Šá (Red Bird in Lakota). Bonnin’s concerns encompass several themes: the victimization of Indian women, disintegration of Native courtship rituals, sexual threats posed by peyote use, and the predatory nature of Euro-American men. This critique as a whole — in which a ‘white invasion,’ in her words, leads to a corruption of Native sexuality — sometimes produces inconsistencies, particularly regarding Bonnin’s statements on the alleged sexual perils of peyote. Her investigations into the Oklahoma guardianship scandals of the 1920s, h…
La montaña acumulada. La jurisdicción de Responsabilidades Políticas en Valencia hasta la reforma de 1942
2016
In barely two years the jurisdiction of Responsabilidades Politicas became a statewide problem. A mountain of unresolved cases with pending bureaucratic procedures were accumulated in courts. This paper seeks to look into the contributing factors in the rapid collapse of this special jurisdiction in the province of Valencia until the reform in 1942. In order to this end, this paper analyze the creation and the interventions of competent bodies in Ley de Responsabilidades Politicas’ first phase; especially focus is put on three stages of the process: the Court order, the commencement of the judicial proceedings and the examination of the files.
The Lady Half-Devoured by a Dragon and the Iconography of Saint Margaret of Antioch : Interpreting an Anonymous Invención in the Cancionero general (…
2018
Following in the footsteps of Ian Macpherson, I offer an interpretation of an anonymous invención found in the Cancionero general (11CG-517) and the British Library Cancionero (LB1-251). I maintain that the image displayed by the jouster was inspired by the iconography of the virgin-martyr Saint Margaret of Antioch, and I propose a theory about the identity of the lady addressed and, with less certainty, about the identity of the jouster and the occasion when the invención was displayed, using Pinar’s Juego trobado as a tool of research and invoking a passage on the sinfulness of the fashion among ladies and damsels for wearing hooped petticoats in a treatise by Hernando de Talavera.
El precio de ser itinerante. Viajes, acompañamiento y espacios cortesanos de la reina Leonor de Sicilia (r. 1349-1375)
2021
This article is an attempt to detail which logistical, economic and human implications had the itinerancy of the medieval monarchy. For this reason, the paper focuses on the characteristics of the itinerancy of Eleanor of Sicily, third wife of Pedro the Ceremonious and queen of the Crown of Aragon between 1349 and 1375. Through the analysis of her documentation, from chancery and treasury resources, it has been possible to establish an itinerary of the queen for three years, from 1354 to 1357. The analysis of this itinerary allows us to see the confluence of the royal couple entourages and the consequences of the beginning of the Dos Pedros war. At the same time, the paper focuses on the pe…
