Essential oils of Chiliadenus lopadusanus (Asteraceae).
2013
The essential oils from the leaves and flowers of Chiliadenus lopadusanus growing on Lampedusa Island were obtained by hydrodistillation and analyzed by GC-MS. The major component was camphor (39.4% in the leaves and 24.0% in the flowers), followed in the leaves by torreyol (6.7%), t-cadinol (5.2%) and 1,8-cineole (3.8%), while in the flowers by t-cadinol (15.2%), t-muurolol (5.1%) and torreyol (4.5%). Among the compounds identified, several seem to play a role in antibacterial, antifungal, allelopathic and spasmolytic activity. In addition, several compounds identified in this study seem to influence the attraction of Megachile (Eutricharaea) apicalis (Megachilidae) and Halictus (Seladonia…
Antropopoiesi eroica in Omero: Fenice maestro di Achille
2016
In chant IX of Iliad there is the long digression of Phoenix, Achilles’ pedagogue, and plays a strategic role, as is recognized by almost all scholars. For this reason, the mise en abyme is a tool to explore the ambiguous relationship between language and reality, which remain central to the relationship between Phoenix and Achilles. The mise en abyme reveals the sense of vertigo mirror between teacher and student, becoming a metaphor and representation of masterful strategy in which the teacher / parent connection, enacts generative operation and produces a continuous exchange of roles. Phoenix, teacher and “parent”, is a fragile figure, oscillating between authority and weakness.

Parole in duello. Riflessioni sulla violenza verbale
2013
Verbal violence is a complex phenomenon that language theory cannot ignore. This paper mainly aims to show that verbal assault and bodily harm are contiguous. The basic idea is that, in order to undersand this phenomenon, we need to consider language as strictly interwoven with other human activities. Using the Iliad as a paradigmatic case study, the paper focuses on two different types of conflict where words play an important role: the armed duel and the quarrel between Achilles and Agammenon.
La parola e la spada : violenza e linguaggio attraverso l'Iliade
2019
Il linguaggio è un’alternativa alla violenza o un suo strumento? Mettendo in discussione la separazione tra violenza verbale e violenza fisica, il libro mette a fuoco il rapporto che lega linguaggio, violenza e natura umana, nel contesto della madre di tutte le guerre, quella combattuta a Troia e raccontata nell’Iliade, dove armi e parole concorrono a realizzare una violenza distruttiva. Le vicende narrate nel poema omerico diventano allora casi esemplari, utili a illustrare il potere che il linguaggio ha di inaugurare nuove forme di violenza esclusive dell’animale che parla.
