La Prima Guerra Mondiale nella cultura figurativa siciliana
2019
Nel volume "Dalla memoria del sacrificio alla celebrazione della Vittoria. La Prima Guerra Mondiale nella cultura artistica e architettonica siciliana", il contributo presenta una ricognizione sulla cultura figurativa in Sicilia durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale. Particolarmente interessante l'esame della ricezione artistica del primo conflitto mondiale che si manifestava da una lato nella celebrazione delle personalità eroiche che contribuirono alla vittoria dall'altro nell'interpretazione dei risvolti drammatici, collettivi e individuali, della guerra. L'indagine si concentra su un campione di dipinti, sculture e monumenti con particolare riferimento alla produzione di Mario Rutelli, Domen…

The Inefficiency of Knowledge and the Limits of Explanations; the Necessity of Critique
2013
July 22nd 2011 Norway experienced the deadliest terror attack in the country since World War II. One man, Anders Behring Breivik, ABB (33), blew up the Governmental Headquarters in our capital Oslo, killing eight people. Later that day he shot and killed, one by one, 69 youths attending a summer camp at Utøya, and wounded many others. His target was the Norwegian Labour Party, its most prominent and influential members, and those who one day might be. His country is dying he says, because of multiculturalism. He is a commander and knight—future leader and even king. His actions were political, compulsory—necessary. . . he says. He regrets nothing.

Spunti di classicismo nei monumenti siciliani ai caduti della Prima Guerra Mondiale
2021
Dopo la conclusione della Prima Guerra Mondiale, tutti i comuni italiani cominciarono a erigere monumenti celebrativi in onore dei soldati morti nell’immane conflitto. Un aspetto meritevole di speciale attenzione, in queste opere commemorative, è l’utilizzo molto rilevante di forme ed elementi derivati dall’antichità greca e romana. Singole iconografie e singoli schemi tipologici, opportunamente rielaborati, potevano infatti adattarsi anche ai nuovi contesti celebrativi e ne rafforzavano il significato. La Sicilia sembra essere un buon case study per mostrare le potenzialità di un’analisi di questo genere: nei centri abitati di questa regione, come in tutto il territorio nazionale, sono pre…
The use and abuse of parliamentary concepts in Hungarian parliamentary debates, 1920–27
2020
During and after the First World War, discourses calling for constitutional reform pervaded Europe. The break-up of the continental empires, the emergence of the new nation-states, and the western calls for democratization collectively gave rise to transnational debates about parliamentarization and parliamentary government. However, in the diverse and contingent post-war political environment, at the same time these ideals were given profoundly nation-specific meanings. They were implemented in the process of nation-building in equally diverse national contexts. This article analyses the use and abuse of the parliamentary concepts and their vernacular redescriptions in Hungarian parliament…
