recensione di VAVOURANAKIS, GIORGOS, KOPANIAS, KONSTANTINO S, and KANELLOPOULOS, CHRYSANTHOS (eds.) (2018). Popular Religion and Ritual in Prehistori…
2020
Review of the volume that aims to contribute to the analysis of the experiential dimension of cults and beliefs (la religion vécue). The common thread running through the contributions collected here share the basic idea, that religion and ritual have to do with the collective ethos and the values they regulate the functioning of the company, thanks to their "performative stability" mechanism.
Religione
2005
Le frequenti professioni di fede di uomini e donne dell’universo mafioso spingono a interrogarsi su come sia possibile conciliare, o anche solo condividere, una scelta di vita contrassegnata dal sangue e dalla violenza con la pratica religiosa, con il richiamo al messaggio evangelico, con la richiesta di un intervento di giustizia divina a sostegno proprio o dei propri cari. Se, talvolta, queste esternazioni possono apparire strumentali e contingenti, funzionali al conseguimento di vantaggi, di legittimazione o consenso, altre volte rivelano l’esistenza di un disagio, di un conflitto tra i valori del gruppo e le esigenze dei suoi singoli componenti. In entrambi i casi, le insanabili contrad…

Embodied Spirituality
2012
Published version of an article in the journal: Archive for the Psychology of Religion. Also available from the publisher at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1163/157361212X645340 The main findings on embodied spirituality within the Toronto Blessing are presented in this article.

Regarding the latter notion, Thomas Csordas has developed cultural phenomenology, which is a culturally constructed way of understanding a situation through using bodi…
Corpo a corpo. Agoni e danze cerimoniali nella Sicilia contemporanea
2018
the choreutical movements of the statues of saints are still today a constitutive and qualifying component of the ritual process of numerous Sicilian religious festivals, in particular those of Easter and the spring-summer ones of the patron saints. The races and dances of the Risen Christ and of the saints are generally accompanied by competitions, struggles, displays of virile attitudes, erotic allusions, the display of gold and evergreen fronds, the consumption of peculiar foods and desserts or a set of ritual symbols of an orgiastic nature which, in referring to an experience of the agro-pastoral world, appear as originally intended to celebrate and promote, at critical moments, the cos…

César au banquet ou la refondation rituelle de Rome
2006
La raffigurazione lucanea del banchetto che Cesare si fa allestire a Farsalo dinanzi ai cumuli di cadaveri (Bellum civile 7, 787-803) ha la funzione precipua di illustrare la ferocia disumana del vincitore furens. Il nuovo banchetto, questa volta non metaforico ma reale, che nello stesso libro, a distanza di pochi versi dal primo (7, 825-846) le belve celebrano sulle spoglie dei caduti definisce una volta per tutte la natura bestiale del tiranno, chiarendo come egli si cibi davvero dei cives, suoi consanguinei in quanto membri della gens Romana, il cui sangue “realmente” ricade dal cielo su di lui. Il Cesare di Lucano trova in letteratura un altro personaggio che ha condiviso le medesime es…
Are Brands Postmodern Relics? Taking a Closer Look at New Sacred Objects
2011
Summary : Ever since the Church lost its monopoly on the sacred, no longer able to solely determine its form or contents, the social sphere has gradually taken over this value, applying it to new human and social objects. As a result, the modes of expression of the sacred have multiplied, along with the subjective and intimate experiences of modern individualism. Among the vast number of potential manifestations of this value, to which almost everything now seems to aspire, this paper will concentrate on commercial brands as vectors of meaning, with the hypothesis that some of them seek to position themselves, in postmodern society, as new figures of the sacred. This area of study is close …
Palvoa jumalia - palvella ihmisiä : etnografinen tutkimus urbaanista ja keskiluokkaisesta hindulaisuudesta Nepalissa
2015
Pro gradu-työni aiheena on nepalilaisen hinduperheen uskonnollinen arki. Tarkastelen perheen uskonnollista arkea vasten kaupungistumisen ja keskiluokkaistumisen taustaa, sosiaalisia prosesseja, joissa tutkimani perhe on osallisena. Perhe kuuluu chhetri-kastiin, jonka uskonnon harjoittamista on tutkittu vähän. Nepalin vaurastuessa keskiluokka on merkittävä yhteiskunnallinen toimija, jota on niin ikään Nepalissa tutkittu verrattain vähän. Tutkimukseni on etnografinen laadullinen tutkimus, joka paikantuu hermeneuttis-fenomenologiseen tutkimussuuntaukseen. Esittämäni tutkimuskysymykset ovat: Miten rituaalit ja moraali ilmenevät osana perheen uskonnon harjoittamista arjessa, ja mikä on niiden su…
