The translating subject: another double of Alejandra Pizarnik’s lyrical I?
2011
This article is the English version of "Le sujet traduisant : un autre double du je lyrique d‘Alejandra Pizarnik?" by Madeleine Stratford. It was not published on the print version of MonTI for reasons of space. The online version of MonTI does not suffer from these limitations, and this is our way of promoting plurilingualism. Fragmentation of the subject is one of the distinctive features of the poetry of Argentine writer Alejandra Pizarnik (1936-1072). Indeed, her poems convey her perpetual dissatisfaction with language, which cannot express her lyrical self in all of its complexity or resuscitate her biographical self. Particularly in her fourth poetry book, Árbol de Diana (1962), the p…
A Review on "Lyricism and Chinese Modern Poetics" by Zhang Songjian

La recensione mette in luce il nodo focale della ricerca dello studioso cinese Zhang Songjian nella sua analisi sul Modernismo nella poesia cinese degli anni '40.

“A Modern Slave Song:” Reggae Music and the Memory of Slavery
2019
International audience; From early ska tunes to modern-day dancehall sounds, Jamaican popular music has been a privileged site for the re/creation and transmission of a communal memory of slavery, within Jamaican society itself but also in the broader context of the African and Afro-Caribbean diasporas. The lyrics of reggae songs constitute a vast textual repertoire where a predominantly oral discourse on slavery is produced and circulated, mostly outside institutional circles. In such texts, slavery serves as a memorial matrix which fosters a sense of identity, community and resistance for Afro-Caribbean people around the world. This chapter examines a corpus of 250 song lyrics dedicated t…

'L’Iris illyrica'
2013
L’Herbarium anglosassone e alcuni glossari che risalgono allo stesso periodo menzionano tra le piante l’Iris illyrica, una pianta usata in medicina e nella cosmetica. L’Herbarium ripete le parole del Περὶ ὕλης ἰατρικῆς di Dioscoride (I,1) e descrive le qualità medicinali della pianta la cui migliore qualità si diceva provenisse dall’Illiria, ma ricorda anche la straordinaria varietà dei colori dei suoi fiori che si possono paragonare a quelli dell’arcobaleno e la forma delle foglie che sono simili a una spada. La denominazione in anglosassone dell’Iris illyrica, hwatend, attestata solo due volte ha un’etimologia ancora controversa. In questo saggio, sulla scorta delle descrizioni antiche e …

From a Disney princess to a modern-day queen : agency and womanhood in Disney lyrics
2015
Walt Disney Company on kulttuurisen ja taloudellisen menestyksensä myötä vaikuttanut suuresti naisidentiteettien muodostumiseen. Disney tarjoaa viihdettä koko perheelle, mutta viime aikoina Disney on keskittynyt erityisesti luomaan ohjelmia ja tuotesarjoja nuorille tytöille. Yksi näistä myyntimenestyksistä on Disney Princess –tuotesarja, jonka kahdeksan Disney -prinsessaa toimivat lukuisten tuotteiden kasvoina. Tyypillinen Disney -prinsessa on kaunis, hyväsydäminen ja viaton sekä usein vahvojen naishahmojen vihan uhri. Erityisesti kolme ensimmäistä prinsessaa (Lumikki, Tuhkimo ja Prinsessa Ruusunen) edustavat hyvin patriarkaalista naiskuvaa, jonka mukaan nainen odottaa passiivisesti hääpäiv…
Effects of musical valence on the cognitive processing of lyrics
2014
The effects of music on the brain have been extensively researched, and numerous connections have been found between music and language, music and emotion, and music and cognitive processing. Despite this work, these three research areas have never before been drawn together in a single research paradigm. This is significant as their combination could lead to valuable insights into the effects of musical valence on the cognitive processing of lyrics. Based on the feelings-as-information theory, which states that negative moods lead to analytic, systematic and fine-grained processing, while positive moods encourage holistic and heuristic-based processing, the current study (n = 64) used an e…
Colori dell'eros nelle Grecia antica
2020
L’articolo contiene una dettagliata indagine di alcuni termini di colore (poikìlos, chloròs, erythròs, pòrphyros e loro composti), di cui si esamina l’uso e i significati nel confronto tra lirica greca arcaica e letteratura medica, con particolare attenzione per i contesti erotici. In accordo con quanto già evidenziato da altri studiosi, emerge in generale l’estensione e l’innovazione, da parte di lirici e medici, del tradizionale ambito culturale e semantico di tali termini, a discapito del mero tratto coloristico. Specificamente, il confronto tra l’uso poetico e medico, specie ippocratico, dei termini di colore considerati mostra alcune corrispondenze nella rappresentazione e nell’immagin…
