Tra uomo e donna. "Varianti sul tema" e invarianti nella scrittura
2018
Vengono individuate diverse riscritture grassiane che appaiono lungo il corso di 15 anni, ma che non si pongono lungo un continuum evolutivo. Non se ne coglie infatti un mutare evidente di usi linguistici o di istanze etico-estetiche che giustifichino i successivi e nuovi testi. Non ci sono, in quindici anni di riscrittura e nonostante i cambiamenti profondi delle sensibilità sociali sul tema del gender, attualizzazioni o integrazioni di segmenti narrativi: la Grasso reitera sempre gli stessi fotogrammi, quasi con le stesse parole e facendo riemergere sempre le stesse sensazioni. La protagonista, Enrichetta/Ninetta, non ha vita autonoma fuori dall’effetto suscitato nell’autrice bambina. Anc…
D’Achille, P., 2010. L’italiano contemporaneo. Bologne : Il Mulino
2014
We make here the review of Paolo D’Achille’s L’italiano contemporaneo. The author deals with a lot of themes concerning contemporary Italian in this book: the situation of Italian language today (the fact that it is spoken along with dialects, its main characteristics, the italiano standard and the italiano dell’uso medio or neostandard); the onomastics (the first names, the ergonyms…); the lexicon (the basic Italian, the loan words…); the phonetics and the phonology (the Italian phonemes and the question of the consonant’s length, the structure of the syllable…); the inflected morphology (the system of the pronouns and the system of the verb and their innovations…); the lexical morphology …
What we learn about language from Spoken Corpus Linguistics?
2020
Al llarg de les darreres dècades, la Lingüística de Corpus Orals (LCO) ha avançat força en termes de quantitat i qualitat d’estudis (O’Keeffe & McCarthy 2010). En els darrers trenta anys s’ha assolit un gran progrés com mostra l’increment de corpus multimodals existents i les diverses investigacions sofisticades que aquests corpus han estimulat sobre la relació entre el component verbal i no-verbal de la comunicació oral (Knight 2011). La LCO és un camp de recerca molt vital que pot proporcionar dades i eines essencials per a avançar en el coneixement lingüístic. En aquest article m’ocupe de la contribució que la LCO i els resultats que ha produït proporcionen a la lingüística general. …
Verb inflection in Ancient Greek and Sanskrit and auxiliation patterns in French and Italian. Forms, functions, system
2009
This paper deals with the complex interaction between form and function in the verb morphosyntax of four Indo-European languages (French, Italian, Ancient Greek and Sanskrit). Beyond the difference in form, auxiliation patterns in French and Italian, and verb inflections in Ancient Greek and Sanskrit correlate, thanks to the agreement for number and person, to the expression of the relationship with the Subject. The different auxiliation patterns (sum and habeo) and the different inflections (middle and active) correlate to different properties of the Subject. In particular, these forms depend on the syntactic opposition between middle and non-middle. The ways of this dependency are regulat…
Génétique des textes et système chaotique
2016
Textual genetics and chaotic system Although we share Louis Hay's idea that it is impossible to homologate and systematize the operations which can be observed in manuscripts, it is however possible to interpret whatever creation process in terms of the passage from entropy to order. The possibility of an analogy between text and chaotic system had been advanced by Noëlle Batt according to whom each work actually satisfies the principles of the chaotic system. It is starting from such principles that we will try to show the analogy between chaotic system and textual genetics: 1. The fact that we are dealing with an evolving system (with variables and permanent features) endowed with a tempo…
San Pedro, como era calvo / Saint Peter, as He Was Bald
2018
Resumen. La calvicie de san Pedro que encontramos diversamente reflejada en la tradición popular católica podría muy bien deberse a un episodio referido en la Legenda Aurea (siglo xiii): cuando el apóstol predicaba en Antioquía, sus habitantes, haciendo burla de sus enseñanzas cristianas, le rasuraron la coronilla. Abstract. The fact that Saint Peter is depicted as bald in the Catholic popular tradition is probably due to an episode narrated in the Legenda Aurea (XIIIth century): when St. Peter preached in Antioch, the inhabitants shaved the top of his head in an attempt to mock the Christian law.
The Syntax–Pragmatics Interface in Heritage Languages: The Use of anche (“Also”) in German Heritage Speakers of Italian
2023
This paper deals with the use of anche (“also”) by German heritage speakers of Italian (“IHSs”). Previous research showed that anche and its German counterpart auch share many features but also display language-specific characteristics. According to previous research on bilingualism, heritage speakers show cross-linguistic influence (“CLI”) when a linguistic phenomenon is at the syntax–pragmatics interface and there is a partial overlap in the two languages at stake. Therefore, we expect the use of anche in IHSs to be influenced by CLI. By analysing data from a semi-spontaneous corpus, we investigate the production of anche in order to understand which factors shape the grammar of the IHSs.…

Las novelas de corriente de conciencia y la obra de Hélène Lenoir
2012
La naissance du roman de la modernité s’est marquée par l’intérêt croissant des narrations de la vie intime des personnages. La classique narration omnisciente cède face au progressif développement de l’intimité ; c’est la réponse à l’ardeur «réaliste» qui parcourt le XIXe. De cette façon, les romans du flux de conscience surgissent pour narrer la coulée de pensées, idées et sensations des personnages qui pensent à leurs propos par rapport au monde. Les romans d’Hélène Lenoir, héritiers de cette tendance, se construisent donc autour de l’intimité des personnages tourmentés par leurs relations familiales. The beginning of the modernist novel is been manifested by the increasing interest in t…
Rhetoric as Philosophy of Language. An Aristotelian Perspective
2017
This paper sustains that rhetoric can be a fruitful way of practicing philosophy of language. The startingpoint is a suggestion drawn from the work of the Italian philosopher Roberto Esposito. According toEsposito, one of the main characteristics of the Italian thought is the focus on the necessary connectionbetween language and extra-linguistic world. I argue that rhetoric (intended in an Aristotelian sense), thanks to its extra-linguistic aim (persuasion), pays particular attention to this connection. This has important consequences: 1. considering speakers and listeners as essential components of speech and assigning a key position to the listener; 2. including the sphere of emotion in t…
