2015
Šī pētījuma mērķis ir atklāt kā dažādi andergraunda mūzikas aspekti mainījušies Latvijai un Lietuvai pārejot no Padomju Savienības uz postpadomju režīmu, posmā no 1985. līdz 1995. gadam. Veids, kādā noteiktas subkultūras identitāte veidojas ar kultūras palīdzību, tiek pētīts, izmantojot mutvārdu vēsturi.

The White Stone of South-Eastern Sicily: Urban and Territorial Identity
2017
La Sicilia è un territorio fortemente "segnato" dall'impiego massiccio della ricca varietà di materiali lapidei che la natura ha messo a disposizione: materia prima dalle differenti qualità petrografiche, colore, caratteristiche tecniche e con una vasta possibilità di impiego, sia come elemento costruttivo sia come pietra ornamentale. La "pietra bianca" di Siracusa, il basalto dell'Etna, la "pietra forte" del ragusano, la pietra di Sabucina di Caltanissetta e Niscemi, le calcareniti e le rocce tufacee delle cave di Carini e Aspra, il calcare grigio di billiemi nel palermitano e il tufo calcareo di Agrigento, caratterizzano gran parte degli insediamenti antropici dell'isola, espressione di u…

Le père et sa fille : le sceau paternel dans la prose colettienne et beauvoirienne
2017
The character of the father in French literature, especially in the works of Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette and Simone de Beauvoir, is significant. He may be perfect or not without faults, withdrawn or authoritative, fascinating or disgusting, but invariably – even if he is overshadowed by the mother – the father inspires his daughter. The latter treats him as a kind of spiritual guide, a confidant who gives her life energy, is an example to follow, and passes on his value system and the need to write on his daughter. Love for the father or the lack thereof allows an adolescent daughter to find her own identity and define herself, and in the case of a mature woman it allows her to revisit her ow…
Les figures du trauma chez Simone de Beauvoir
2018
The work of de Beauvoir expresses the trauma of being unable to reach the Absolute by an introverted individual, breaking with the image of the writer as an eternal optimist, whose life was filled with pleasures and journeys. Considering her individualism, this article will take an interdisciplinary view at the contrast between the desire for existence and its absence, the search for identity and the dialectic of existentialism. Selected autobiographical works and essays will illustrate how the trauma in the discourse of the writer manifests itself through fear, sadness, loneliness, anxiety, or suffering, expressing loss of faith, despair, internal crisis, and obsession with death, which ar…
Being oneself through time: Bases of self-continuity across 55 cultures
2017
Çalışmada 60 yazar bulunmaktadır. Bu yazarlardan sadece Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi mensuplarının girişleri yapılmıştır. Self-continuity - the sense that one's past, present, and future are meaningfully connected - is considered a defining feature of personal identity. However, bases of self-continuity may depend on cultural beliefs about personhood. In multilevel analyses of data from 7287 adults from 55 cultural groups in 33 nations, we tested a new tripartite theoretical model of bases of self-continuity. As expected, perceptions of stability, sense of narrative, and associative links to one's past each contributed to predicting the extent to which people derived a sense of self-continuity…
Social capital development of rural community based on social networking activities in Lithuania
2018
The scholar literature on simultaneous using of social capital explore knowledge and identity resources as well as actions and interactions benefiting the community through personal bonds of individuals; issues of common trust; and adapting the current understanding in new situations. In this article, we instead examine rural community influence on social capital building of adult person in a virtual community. A quantitative survey was done in 246 local rural communities in Lithuania which reflected their community activities on a virtual basis. From the data of 500 informants we found that rural community (human social network) members were also active in the virtual communities. Research…
Verso una nuova cultura di Bildung: l’approccio biografico-narrativo come metodologia formativa
2020
Teoria e prassi, azione e riflessione, oggetto e soggetto, cura d’altri e cura di sé, sono i pilastri di una pedagogia volta alla Bildung intesa come tensione spirituale dell’io e coscienza di una crescita interiore cui ogni uomo può e deve elevarsi alla sua vera condizione umana. Questo lavoro si divide in due parti: la prima parte è volta a delineare una ricostruzione storica del concetto di Bildung, soffermandosi principalmente sul senso e sul significato che Edith Stein ha offerto al mondo della pedagogia; nella seconda parte del lavoro, si vuole identificare l’importanza di adottare la tecnica riflessiva della narrazione autobiografica per far emergere la validità che essa possiede nel…
Salah Methnani’s Immigrato: Portrait of a Migrant as a Young Man
2012
Although after Unification Italy was predominantly a country of emigration, in recent years it has become a hub for migrants from different parts of the world. Among these migrants a group of writers has contributed to re-configuring Italy's national literary identity. Read by critics primarily as an autobiographical text with remarkable sociological value, Tunisian-born Salah Methnani’s Immigrato is, I argue, first and foremost a classic Bildungsroman. Salah, the 'immigrant' in the title, is the story's protagonist, point of view and leading metaphor. His Bildung follows a double path. On the one hand Italy is a country imagined through TV and books read in school, on the other it is the c…
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…
