How Populist Was David Cameron?
2016
The ‘rhetorical populism’ of the former prime minister's big society agenda may have waxed and waned, says Agnes Alexandre-Collier. But Cameron was an innovator of party management and governing practices whose focus on connecting with ‘the people’ transformed his party – but also supplied the means of his own downfall.
Newtonian and Non-Newtonian Elements in Hume
2016
For the last forty years, Hume's Newtonianism has been a debated topic in Hume scholarship. The crux of the matter can be formulated by the following question: Is Hume a Newtonian philosopher? Debates concerning this question have produced two lines of interpretation. I shall call them ‘traditional’ and ‘critical’ interpretations. The traditional interpretation asserts that there are many Newtonian elements in Hume, whereas the critical interpretation seriously questions this.In this article, I consider the main points made by both lines of interpretations and offer further arguments that contribute to this debate. I shall first argue, in favor of the traditional interpretation, that Hume i…
Ciało, trup, śmierć w utworze "Götz i Meyer" Davida Albahariego
2019
The article investigates the broadly understood record of Jewish death that emerges from the text of the Serbian prose writer David Albahari. Emphasizing the dominance of economy in the Nazi system, the author indicates those procedures described in Albahari’s book which justify such an assessment (e.g. human reification, the body as debris, technical syntax used by German officials). Additionally, these considerations on death representation are supplemented with an endeavor to establish the Belgrade dwellers’ attitude towards the fortunes of the Jews. According to the author, the novel explicitly marks the spatial opposition (enclosure vs. opening, the camp vs. the city center) that is re…
The contributions of Hilbert and Dehn to non-Archimedean geometries and their impact on the Italian school
2007
In this paper we investigate the contribution of Dehn to the development of non- Archimedean geometries. We will see that it is possible to construct some models of non- Archimedean geometries to prove the independence of the continuity axiom and we will study the interrelations between Archimede’s axiom and Legendre‘s theorems. Some of these interrelations were studied also by Bonola who was one of the very few italian scholars to really appreciate Dehn’s work. We will see that, if Archimede’s axiom does not hold, the hypothesis on the existence and the number of parallel lines through a point is not related to the hypothesis on the sum of the inner angles a triangle. Hilbert himself retur…
Some models of geometries after Hilbert’s Grundlagen
2010
Sono descritti alcuni dei principali modelli di geometrie non desarguesiane e non archimedee Abstract: We investigate the contribution of Max Dehn to the development of non-Archimedean geometries and the contribution of his student Ruth Moufang to the development of non-Desarguesian geometries.
Fleabag's Ethical Investigations
2020
Fleabag is a television series created and written by Phoebe Waller-Bridge, who also stars as the eponymous character. The television series was produced by Two Brothers Pictures and consists of two seasons of six episodes, each lasting around 25 minutes; the first season (2016) was produced for BBC Three whilst the second season (2019) for BBC Three and for Amazon Studios. Fleabag has conquered the heart of audiences all over the world, has received universal critical acclaim, has been presented with many accolades, and has been awarded several prizes. I see Fleabag as a primer on ethics, a compendium of some relevant themes of moral philosophy. The two-season television series is steeped …

Come si diventa devianti
2019
Annoverato tra i classici della sociologia della devianza e, più complessivamente, della riflessione socio-criminologica contemporanea, Come si diventa devianti merita di essere riproposto – a cinquant’anni dalla sua pubblicazione – anche a nuove generazioni di studiosi e lettori. Il testo, presentato in una versione aggiornata, sollecita con inedita attualità la necessità di utilizzare un approccio naturalistico che tenga conto della prospettiva soggettiva dello stesso soggetto “deviante”. Confutando ogni deriva positivista e riflettendo criticamente sugli approcci classici, David Matza pone le basi per una sociologia pubblica della devianza e del crimine e sottolinea l’importanza della re…

La portada de la iglesia de las Escuelas Pías de Gandía. Su proceso constructivo y modulación arquitectónico-musical
2020
The facade of the church of the Pious Schools of Gandia has not attracted the attention of researchers. However, its conception has a great architectural culture and constitutes an essential work to understand its context, fundamentally, that of the theoretical treatises of the Renaissance. From this study it is wanted to value its architecture and that it is considered as an outstanding ingredient to know its period of construction in general and jesuit architecture in particular. For its understanding, its interpretation in the culture of contemporary architecture treaties and, especially, in the architectural-musical theory of Leon Battista Alberti will be necessary.. La portada de la ig…
