Soglie narrative e fotografiche in “Leggenda privata” di Michele Mari
2018
The aim of the paper is to analyze the narrative and photographic thresholds of Leggenda privata by Michele Mari (2017). The first case is a rhetorical artifice, a horror-gothic-fantastic narrative threshold, that Mari creates to distinguish the present of writing from the past of memories, intended, as I will try to demonstrate, to problematize the crucial questions of autobiography: incipit and explicit of the narration, literature and bios, fiction and non-fiction. Mari adds another expedient to this one: the inclusion of family photographs, selected from his personal archive, and that, for the variety of their authors, reveal another threshold, that between the writer and the photograph…

This article explores how in Vilain essayist "fictions pensives" produce fictional and reflexive enlargements of his thought, by demonstrating the writer's ability to seize his ordinary experience to transform it into a literary object as well as a structured thought. Cet article explore comment chez Vilain essayiste les fictions pensives produisent des élargissements fictionnels et réflexifs de sa pensée, en démontrant la capacité de l’écrivain à s’emparer de son expérience ordinaire pour la transformer aussi bien en objet littéraire qu’en pensée structurée.

Migration, Identity, and Threatened Mental Health: Examples from Contemporary Fiction.
2018
In 2015, the world saw 244 million international migrants. Migration has been shown to be both a protective and a risk factor for mental health, depending on circumstances. Furthermore, culture has an impact on perceptions and constructions of mental illness and identity, both of which can be challenged through migration. Using a qualitative research approach, we analysed five internationally acclaimed and influential novels and one theatre play that focus on aspects of identity, migration, and threatened mental health. As a mirror of society, fiction can help to understand perceptions of identity and mental suffering on an intrapsychic and societal level, while at the same time society its…

Offshore Assets in the Transition from ‘Traditional Business Practice’ to ‘Connected Business Eco-systems’
2020
In many industrial sectors we have already begun to see how new business ecosystems gradually emerge turning the traditional business practices upside down. Particularly within relatively conventional sectors, such as upstream oil and gas (O&G) and land-based process industry, we expect to see substantial changes in the years to come. In this paper, we elaborate on principal challenges related to major structural changes and core technology platforms for the oil industry identifying critical features and elaborating on emerging operational principles. This is based on a critical review of latest industry conditions and practices that are targeted towards the creation of new business models …
Remembered, Read and Experienced Time in Virtual Text (= Tempo lembrado, lido e experienciado no texto virtual)
2015
In this article I will scrutinize Screen (2002, by WARDRIP-FRUIN & al.), a literary work set and experienced in a CAVE Virtual Reality environment, especially from the perspective of its temporal aspects. There are obvious themes of remembering, forgetting and textually constructing the past in this work, but most notably, Screen emphasizes the temporality of the reading act itself. I will analyze this highly special work in relation to the remembered, read, and bodily experienced time, and thus, attempt to better understand both the notion of fictive time and the temporality of fiction. peerReviewed
