Estrategias icónicas en las comedias mitológicas de Calderón
2015
El artículo explora el tópico horaciano «ut pictura poiesis», que tan buenos resultado ha ofrecido sobre el análisis de los textos calderonianos, pero no solo: también incorpora la relación de otras artes (música, escenografía, etc.) para estudiar el complejo entramado de las comedias mitológicas de Calderón que fueron representadas en entornos cortesanos. De este modo, la autora rastrea las interacciones artísticas existentes entre obras de destacada importancia como la fiesta palaciega “La fiera, el rayo y la piedra”, “La púrpura de la rosa” o “El hijo del sol, Faetón”. This paper explores the Horacian topic «ut pictura poiesis» which has offered such good results on the analysis of calde…
The Rapid Evolution of Resistance to Vip3Aa Insecticidal Protein in Mythimna separata (Walker) Is Not Related to Altered Binding to Midgut Receptors
2021
Laboratory selection for resistance of field populations is a well-known and useful tool to understand the potential of insect populations to evolve resistance to insecticides. It provides us with estimates of the frequency of resistance alleles and allows us to study the mechanisms by which insects developed resistance to shed light on the mode of action and optimize resistance management strategies. Here, a field population of Mythimna separata was subjected to laboratory selection with either Vip3Aa, Cry1Ab, or Cry1F insecticidal proteins from Bacillus thuringiensis. The population rapidly evolved resistance to Vip3Aa reaching, after eight generations, a level of >3061-fold resistance…
Post-Secular Identity? Developing a New Approach to Religion in International Relations and IR Studies
2021
In spite of the increasing presence of religion in international relations with various publications observing this presence and numerous authorities calling for the inclusion of religion into mainstream research, there is no universal consent to recognize religion’s role in IR. In our opinion, the only way to reconcile IR with the international reality in which religion has been and will remain present in the foreseeable future is for the researchers themselves to construct—especially those oriented towards broad, non-Western perspective—a new face of the discipline, the face which in this article we call the post-secular identity of IR study. Assuming that identity is first and foremost a…
Fragmentos de um discurso político. Intervenções críticas

To this end, the author elaborates analyses and reflections on themes and passions with which he identifies a specific way for semiotics to answer the questions promoted by the field of politics.

Abraham Bids Farewell to Hagar and Ishmael: Continuity and Variation of the Iconographic Type
2021
In traditional Christian artistic visualization, the episode of Hagar and Ishmael in the desert has given rise to various iconographic types: “The feast for the weaning of Isaac and Sara’s protests,” “Abraham bids farewell to Hagar and Ishmael,” “Hagar and Ishmael in the desert” and “Divine salvation for Hagar and Ishmael”. This study looks into the continuity and variation over time of the second of these types: “Abraham bids farewell to Hagar and Ishmael,” the one most depicted out of this entire biblical topic or episode. Since the Byzantine Octateuch in the East (11th century.) and the Canterbury Hexateuch (ca. 1025&ndash…

Jo Nesbø’s The Snowman and the Myth of Týr: Addressing Contemporary Issues through Literary Tradition
2018
Il saggio esplora il modo in cui l'autore di Scandi-noir Jo Nesbø rifunzionalizza il mito norreno del dio germanico Týr (e anche alcuni altri episodi mitologici) nel suo popolare romanzo The Snowman (2007). Nesbø adatta questi miti medievali per creare situazioni ed enigmi allusivi e sfrutta il gioco intellettuale del medievalismo per creare un significato semanticamente denso. Il romanzo quindi esplora e considera varie questioni contemporanee tra cui, per esempio, il valore della “verità” rispetto alla percezione individuale (e contestuale), la supposta dicotomia tra vittima e carnefice, e il conflitto tra individuo e società. L'analisi dimostra non solo la densità semantica di The Snowma…

The Myth of French Influence Over Spanish Codification: The General Part of the Criminal Codes of 1822 and 1848
2018
The chapter aims to explore the scope of the foreign influences, that of the French in particular, in the criminal codes of 1822 and 1848/50. In doing so, the author departs from the views of some 19th century criminal lawyers who, like J. F. Pacheco, stated that in the old criminal laws “nothing was worthy of respect, or conservation” and “there was only one legitimate and viable system, the system of codification, the system of absolute change,” and recognizing that drafters were fully acquainted with the case of France, a jurisdiction that managed to turn its old laws—including the criminal ones—into modern codes (1804–1811). The author briefly presents the status quaestionis of the dich…
MODELLI, TESTI, PROCESSI: UNO STUDIO COGNITIVO DELLE METAFORE DELESSICALIZZATE E D’INVENZIONE
2014
La tesi di ricerca è basata sulle metafore delessicalizzate e d’invenzione riscontrate all’interno del romanzo di lingua tedesca «Kassandra» scritto nel 1983 dalla scrittrice Christa Wolf e all’interno del racconto di lingua tedesca «Minotaurus: eine Ballade» scritto nel 1985 Friedrich Dürrenmatt. Si vogliono analizzare i processi cognitivi che stanno alla base della creazione dei due tipi di metafore. Per farlo si è scelto di utilizzare tre teorie della linguistica cognitiva: la teoria della metafora concettuale (Lakoff e Johnson, 1980 e 1999); la teoria dell’integrazione concettuale (Turner e Fauconnier, 2002) e la teoria dell’analogia (Monneret, 2004). L’analisi ci permette di comprender…
