Funzionamento del codice retorico e contenuti ideologici propri dell’autore: Libanio
2006
Through the internal analysis of Libanius of Antioch's Orations 46, 56 and 57, the work attempted to distinguish between the application and functioning of the rhetorical code and the author's own content, between rhetorical devices and ideological assumptions. The study of the density of rhetorical figures is the method of analysis used to verify the objectivity of the speaker's parrhesia
La ceramica figurata lilibetana "in added colour": breve nota di riesame
2023
The paper offers a contribution to the study of Lilibeo’s figured vases, which make extensive use of added color. The examination of some contexts allows us to clarify the old idea of a derivation of the Lilibetane vases from the workshops of Lipari, due to a displacement of artisans who would operate first in Lipari and then in Lilibeo (like the Swans Painter). It is not completely excludes the movement of craftsmen due to destructions or political changes. However it reconstructs complex interactions in which a main role had to play the influence and the action of medium exercised by the same imported artifacts (Lipari vases, mainly, but not only).
The unspeakable through the works of some contemporary Spanish composers
2016
The concept of unspeakable, as complex as it may be, can base itself on an experience of the sensitive, and find a common context in the events exceeding the limit and pointing a certain chaos. Those of the Spanish Civil War have constituted, by numerous aspects, examples of these unthinkable excesses. The impact of the environment on the creators has been heard in the thematic traces which are imperative in the works composed on the themes of death, violence or war: from the sound phenomena, some figures making sensitive the exceeding of the limit and chaotic connotation have been highlighted and echo what is beyond belief, as the destruction of man or the inaudibility of death. These figu…
ALL OR NOTHING: A SEMANTIC ANALYSIS OF HYPERBOLE
2009
This paper focuses on hyperbole, a long neglected form of non-literal language despite its pervasiveness<br />in everyday speech. It addresses the production process of exaggeration, since a crucial limitation in<br />figurative language theories is the production and usage of figures of speech, probably due to the intensive<br />research effort on their comprehension. The aim is to analyse hyperbole from a semantic perspective in order<br />to devise a semasiological taxonomy which enables us to understand the nature and uses of the trope. In<br />order to analyse and classify hyperbolic items a corpus of naturally occurring conversations extracted from<br …
Neptuno Alegórico: emblemático arco en la obra de sor Juana
2013
ABSTRACT: Frequently but unevenly valued, sor Juana Ines de la Cruz’s (1648-1695) Neptuno alegorico [Allegorical Neptune] has received increased attention in recent years, as though —by virtue of its nature as «ephemeral art»— «that» art (emblematic) had become increasingly more meaningful than the fugacious situation from which it emerged. An exceptional text, the design of the triumphal archway that welcomed the new viceroy Tomas Antonio de la Cerda and his wife Maria Luisa Manrique de Lara in 1680, reveals not only the importance that sor Juana had already attained, to a great extent, as a writer, but also, and more emphatically, it shows the relevance of her public figure and, in a prog…
Figuras interaccionales y propósito comunicativo en conversaciones coloquiales, entrevistas periodísticas y entrevistas del proyecto PRESEEA
2020
espanolEste trabajo explora la creciente conversacionalizacion de los discursos mediaticos a partir de un analisis contrastivo del genero entrevista frente a dos generos vecinos: la conversacion coloquial y la entrevista sociolinguistica. Para ello, en primer lugar, se comparan los patrones interaccionales de los tres generos mediante una herramienta de visualizacion. Los resultados muestran que la entrevista periodistica es mas cercana a la conversacion que la sociolinguistica. En segundo lugar, se argumenta que algunas de las diferencias estructurales observadas pueden explicarse a partir del proposito comunicativo. Las particularidades del genero conversacion se relacionan con la ausenci…
Huygens: lost – regained – revised. De literair-historische receptie van Constantijn Huygens in de eerste helft van de 19e eeuw
2018
Huygens: lost ‒ regained ‒ revised. De literair-historische receptievan Constantijn Huygens in de eerste helftvan de 19e eeuwFrom the beginning of professional Dutch Studies M. Siegenbeek’s inauguration as professor eloquentiae hollandicae extraordinarius, 1797 the 17th century Dutch writers P.C. Hooft and Joost van den Vondel are present in Dutch literary studies and literary historiography. The position of ConstantijnHuygens, whom the contemporary literary scholars also include in the Grote Vijf Great Five of the 17th-century Dutch literature besides Vondel, Hooft, Cats and Bredero, was gradually changing during the 19th century. This article postulates that the reception of Huygens in …

IG VII 53, an epigraphic rara avis in the corpus of greek metrical inscriptions
2017
Este artigo tem como objetivo estudar a inscrição publicada no IG VII 53 de uma perspectiva liguística. Ele consiste de uma seção em prosa que inclui um epigrama dedicado aos Mégaros caídos em combate nas guerras Pérsicas. A inscrição foi supostamente composta no século V a. C., mas o texto preservado não foi inscrito antes do IV século a. C. Após reavaliar a bibliografia principal sobre o texto, que estudou a inscrição principalmente do ponto de vista arqueológico, histórico ou literário, nós aplicamos uma análise linguística em dois níveis, baseada: a) na comparação dos dados linguísticos com a prosa epigráfica ou outras influências literárias, e b) nas restrições métricas que poderiam de…
Modeling of low-noise microwave HEMTs for CAD-oriented applications
1993
The simultaneous determination of noise, gain and scattering parameters through a computer-driven noise figure measuring system allowed the rapid and accurate characterization of several samples of low noise HEMTs of the same family. From the measured parameters an equivalent circuit model representing the behavior of the typical device is extracted by means of a decomposition approach. Comparison between the model performance and the set of measured parameters of all devices are reported for the FHR 02FH (by Fujitsu). The modeling procedure is mainly oriented to the CAD of (M)MIC low noise wideband amplifiers. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
