Ancestry and demography and descendants of Iron Age nomads of the Eurasian Steppe
2017
During the 1st millennium before the Common Era (BCE), nomadic tribes associated with the Iron Age Scythian culture spread over the Eurasian Steppe, covering a territory of more than 3,500 km in breadth. To understand the demographic processes behind the spread of the Scythian culture, we analysed genomic data from eight individuals and a mitochondrial dataset of 96 individuals originating in eastern and western parts of the Eurasian Steppe. Genomic inference reveals that Scythians in the east and the west of the steppe zone can best be described as a mixture of Yamnaya-related ancestry and an East Asian component. Demographic modelling suggests independent origins for eastern and western g…
La mafia in aeroporto. Punta raisi: cronaca di una speculazione annunciata
2013
The history of Palermo’s Punta Raisi Airport – that is called today “Falcone and Borsellino” in memory of the two judges killed by Cosa Nostra - started after World War II, coinciding with the increase of civilian air traffic in the skies of the Sicilian capital, third in Italy for its number of transits of passengers and freight, which became unsustainable figures for the military airport of Boccadifalco. Everything begins with the creation in 1953 of the Autonomous Consortium for the Airport of Palermo, with the aim to implement the project of a new infrastructure located a few steps away from the city center, ready to compete with the best airports in Italy, to increase the modernization…
Language in Central Europe: An Overview
2009
The linguistic picture of Central Europe, as we know it, started forming in the 6th to 9th centuries. The coming of the Slavs (or rather the spread of their language and way of life to unrelated various ethnic groups) marks the beginning of this caesura that largely closed in 896 AD when the Magyars crossed the Carpathians into Pannonia. This event gradually divided the hypothetically continuous area of Slavic settlement into a southern section, extending from contemporary Slovenia to Bulgaria, and into a northern section, which coincided with the areas from the Elbe in today’s eastern Germany to the upper Volga in northeastern Russia. In the west, the Magyar-speakers skirted the East and …

«L’immaginazione terrorizzata» e «la malinconia dissolvente». La tensione diaristica di Giuseppe Antonio Borgese
2020
The five manuscript texts in Italian, written almost entirely in America, to which the writer from Polizzi Generosa entrusted his self-confidence, poetic and civic re-foundation, unfold over a chronological period from 1928 to 1935. We dwell on the intrinsic contamination between autobiography and invention that feeds Borgese’s writing in a web of literary, ethical, spiritual, philosophical and political ramifications. The contemporary reconfiguration of Borgese’s novelistic path in the volume “Il pellegrino appassionato” is also part of this perspective, investigated through the references in the diary to some of the novels that are most nourished by the fundamental themes of private self-…
Il Mezzogiorno di Bandi e Abba tra esotismi e stigmatizzazioni
2014
Ad eccezione di taccuini, articoli di giornale o lettere, la maggior parte dei memorialisti garibaldini si dedicò alla scrittura solo alcuni anni dopo le imprese della Spedizione dei Mille. Considerando la provenienza non meridionale della maggior parte di loro, è interessante vedere come il Sud sia stato per lo più caratterizzato in senso esotico e memoriale: luogo misterioso e fonte di stereotipi, cullato nella memoria e testualizzato attraverso una scrittura che esalta il dato leggendario.
La narrativa cinese in Italia a cavallo tra fine Ottocento e inizio Novecento: il contributo di Giuseppe Barone (1861-1924)
2022
Between the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th century, several Italian early sinologists and translators contributed to introduce numerous works of Chinese literature to the Italian readers. Among them, the Neapol- itan polyglot Giuseppe Barone (1861-1924) was a prolific author and trans- lator, not just in Italian, but also in French, Spanish, Latin and Greek. As a matter of fact, his Chinese-related production amounts to more than 30 writings, including essays and short studies on Chinese culture, economy and society, as well as translations of poems, plays and short stories. However, an exhaustive investigation on his contribution to the early translations of Chinese literatu…
