Napoli, 3 maggio 1777: la cantata per san Gennaro nel seggio di Portanova attraverso le lettere di Antonio di Gennaro ad Aurelio Bertola
2022
The cult of San Gennaro is a typical feature of the Neapolitan cultural tradition. In the 18th century, there were three dates on which the martyr was celebrated: the first Saturday of May, 19 September and 16 December. The May feast was held in turn in one of the six "seggi" of the city. In 1771, it was hosted by the "seggio" of Portanova, which commissioned - as usual - a cantata, set to music by Fedele Fenaroli. The libretto of this composition can be studied in detail thanks to the unpublished letters sent by Antonio di Gennaro Duke of Belforte to the poet, the Rimini-born Aurelio Bertola. The explanations and advice given by the former to the latter clarify certain peculiar aspects of …

CAMPANIAN WINE FOR PUNIC SICILY: PETROGRAPHIC AND ARCHAEOLOGICAL STUDIES OF GRAECO-ITALIC AMPHORAE FROM PALERMO
2018
This contribution proposes a combination of archaeological fabric analysis and petrographic research applied to the study of 35 sherds of Graeco-Italic amphorae mostly found in Palermo, but also in Pantelleria and Malta (Tab. 1). The provenance identification derived from both approaches gives evidence for the arrival, in North-Western Sicily, of presumable wine amphorae from central-Tyrrhenian Italy since the very late 4th century BC. The production of the majority of the material has been confidentially attributed to the area of the Gulf of Naples/Ischia, but a second large group originates from several, still unidentified production sites to be located along the coastal strip of Campania…
La croix imprimée dans le ciel à Naples et à Ravenne (Ve-VIe siècle) : une mise en ordre du champ visuel
2017
Inscrit durablement dans l’esprit des fidèles, le signe de la croix imprimée sur un ciel étoilé dans deux décors en mosaïques situés à Naples et à Ravenne (Ve-VIe siècle) invite à réfléchir sur une matérialité spiritualisée. Signum du Christ représenté perpétuellement dans l’église, la Croix enclenche le glissement du visible vers l’invisible, du matériel vers l’immatériel, du charnel vers le spirituel. Dans le baptistère de Naples, la croix est associée au sceau baptismal tandis qu’à Saint-Apollinaire-in-Classe, elle participe au glissement d’une évocation de la Transfiguration vers l’annonce de la Seconde Parousie. Dans ces deux décors, la croix ordonne les éléments, rassemble les créatur…
Testaments et pratique testamentaire dans le royaume franc (vie-viiie siècle)
2005
Les testaments merovingiens ont de longue date attire l'attention des diplomaties, des historiens du droit et de la societe. U. Nonn a montre la continuite entre testaments romains et merovingiens, mais on s'interroge toujours sur la diffusion de ces actes dans la societe et sur les conditions de leur disparition au IX e siecle. Un reexamen de la question (avec listes du materiel disponible) donne a penser que differents types d'actes a cause de mort etaient utilises dans la societe merovingienne et que les testaments aristocratiques - les seuls connus-, conserves de maniere preferentielle par les heritiers ecclesiastiques qu'ils instituaient, ne sont pas representatifs d'une pratique sans …
