In Sumerian mythological literature, as in coeval Akkadian one, between the end of the 3rd and the beginning of the 2nd millennium, the ruler, foremost among them Gilgameš, on several occasions uproots and/or cuts down trees. These trees should be understood as elements of a wider ‘Wilderness’, with which they share a powerful and ambiguous ontological otherness compared to the city and, more generally, to the land of Sumer. The action of the king on the tree, like that of a farmer or gardener, with the consequent realization of ‘artefacts’, allows, through a cultural organization of the power of the tree, the renewal of the relationship, always subject to crisis, between the human communit…
Vorwort: Altertumswissenschaften und Kulturanthropologie. Chancen und Probleme
2020
The Distant Worlds Journal (DWJ) is an online peer-reviewed journal established especially for presenting the research of early-career scholars on the ancient world. Each edition of the DWJ centres on a specific question or topic pertinent to the diverse disciplines engaged in the study of ancient cultures. In our fourth edition, we explore cultural anthropological theories and methods in the ancient studies, both in terms of the opportunities they offer for the study of ancient cultures and the problems they pose when applied
New quality regulations versus established nursing home practice: a qualitative study
2012
Published version of an article from the journal: BMC Nursing. Also available from Bio Med Central:http://dx.doi.org/10.1186/1472-6955-11-7 Open Access Background Western governments have initiated reforms to improve the quality of care for nursing home residents. Most of these reforms encompass the use of regulations and national quality indicators. In the Norwegian context, these regulations comprise two pages of text that are easy to read and understand. They focus particularly on residents’ rights to plan their day-to-day life in nursing homes. However, the research literature indicates that the implementation of the new regulations, particularly if they aim to change nursing practice, …
Association between anhedonia and suicidal events in patients with mood disorders: A 3-year prospective study.
2020
Background As almost all mental disorders are associated with increased suicidal-related behavior, anhedonia might be a trans-diagnostic dimension to target for suicide prevention. Methods For this 3-year-long prospective study, 2,839 outpatients with mood disorders were recruited. They were divided in: (a) two groups according to the occurrence or not of suicidal ideation during the follow-up, and (b) two groups according to the occurrence or not of suicide attempts during the follow-up. Anhedonia was assessed using a composite score (the French version of the 14-item Snaith-Hamilton Pleasure Scale and item 13 of the Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology scale) at inclusion and at 6…
L'animismo rivisitato e i dibattiti sulle ontologie indigene
2014
Nell'articolo viene analizzata la recente interpretazione della nozione di animismo in antropologia legandola allo sviluppo del dibattito teorico sulle cosiddette 'ontologie indigene' e sui concetti di persona. Da questo punto di vista l'opera di Hallowell ha ispirato molti dei filoni di riflessione contemporanea su questi temi. Tra questi filoni, si possono annoverare: l'antropologia cognitiva di Boyer, l'antropologia fenomenologica di Ingold e Bird-David, la teoria degli schemi della pratica di Descola, la teoria del "prospettivismo amerindiano" di Viveiros de Castro. Dopo avere esaminato i caratteri e i limiti di ognuno di questi filoni, l'articolo si sofferma sulle posizioni più recenti…
Emotion regulation in adolescents with anorexia and bulimia nervosa: Differential use of adaptive and maladaptive strategies compared to healthy adol…
2021
Objective: Adolescents with anorexia (AN) and bulimia nervosa (BN) often struggle with emotion regulation (ER). These difficulties have predominantly been assessed across emotions, without considering adaptive and maladaptive ER separately.We compared adolescents with AN or BN to healthy adolescents (HCs) regarding the adaptive and maladaptive ER of three emotions. Methods: A treatment-seeking sample of 197 adolescents (atypical/full-threshold AN: N = 118, atypical/full-threshold BN: N = 32; HC: N = 47) reported emotion-specific ER with the FEEL-KJ questionnaire. Mixed models were calculated for adaptive and maladaptive ER to assess differences between emotions (anxiety, anger, sadness) and…
Le matin des dieux. Du Norouz persan aux Pâques chrétiennes
2018
Nel 2009 l'UNESCO ha inserito Nowruz, la festa del capodanno iraniano e di altri popoli che facevano parte dell'Impero Persiano, nella lista del patrimonio culturale immateriale dell'umanità. Nel 2010, l'Assemblea generale delle Nazioni Unite ha riconosciuto il 21 marzo come Giornata internazionale di Nowruz, incoraggiando tutti i paesi del mondo a utilizzare le tradizioni primaverili di questa festa per promuovere la pace. Nowruz interessa trecento milioni di persone. Durante i festeggiamenti che danno luogo alla festa, vengono allestite tavole rituali con sette elementi, tra cui i germogli (di grano, orzo, lenticchie e altri semi) che le donne germinano nelle case per celebrare un nuovo i…
Living in urban interstices: the survival practices of excluded Gypsies in Italian borderlands.
2012
The paper focuses on the case-studies of nomad camps in Italy, where groups of “gypsies” live in condition of ghetto. The nomad camps generally constitute a world out of the city, as an encompassed microcosm. They represent a borderland or a grey zone. The only interaction between “them” and “us” happens when Romanì exit from the camp and cross the municipal streets. Roma people develop a capacity to survive in urban interstices. These practices consist in unusual welfare forms of material help for day by day survival, while living in a condition of human rights negation by majority society members.
Pasqualino Contemporaneo
2018
A Museum that tells stories. A Museum that houses ideas – not only things. A Museum that, going beyond the simple act of collecting, acquires a narrative dimension and turns into a meta-narrative, into an “Open Work”. This performance museum, which is the Antonio Pasqualino International Puppet Museum, focuses on narration and trans- forms itself into a mnestic image, becomes a tool for intercultural mediation through the use of different artistic languages. This long tradition of study and research is the frame of the Pasqualino Museum’s contemporary art projects realized in the past ten years.
