Axion gauge symmetries and generalized Chern-Simons terms inN=1 supersymmetric theories
2004
We compute the form of the Lagrangian of N=1 supersymmetric theories with gauged axion symmetries. It turns out that there appear generalized Chern-Simons terms that were not considered in previous superspace formulations of general N=1 theories. Such gaugings appear in supergravities arising from flux compactifications of superstrings, as well as from Scherk-Schwarz generalized dimensional reduction in M-theory. We also present the dual superspace formulation where axion chiral multiplets are dualized into linear multiplets.

Prefazione al volume "Mirdita në Arkivin e Propagandës Fide në shekujt XVII-XIX" contenente una raccolta di documenti storici - trascritti e tradotti in albanese da Arben Ndreca - sulla regione di Mirdita nell'Albania settentrionale, i cui originali sono conservati presso l'Archivio Storico di Propaganda Fide in Vaticano. Si tratta principalmente di relazioni che i prelati della Chiesa Cattolica in Albania inviavano periodicamente alla Congregazione di Propaganda Fide durante un periodo di oltre tre secoli (prima metà XVII sec. - fine XIX sec.) e che oggi costituiscono una preziosa fonte di dati per la storia di quella regione.

Figurazioni dell'amor patrio - Esuli, profughi e migranti nelle arti visive del Risorgimento
2019
Figura simbolica fortemente radicata nell’immaginario risorgimentale, l’esule conferisce un volto umano a valori fondativi del discorso patriottico, come lo spirito di sacrificio e il senso di appartenenza alla comunità nazionale. Da tempo oggetto di studi storici, storico-letterari e comparatistici, il tema dell’esilio conosce una notevole fortuna iconografica nell’Europa del XIX secolo, qui per la prima volta esaminata in maniera sistematica grazie alla ricostruzione puntuale della genesi di opere che in virtù della loro natura allusiva suscitano l’interesse degli ambienti patriottici. Oltre a proporre una casistica dei motivi più ricorrenti, l’autore interpreta le immagini dell’esilio al…
Obispos españoles en Sicilia: origen judeoconverso y acción pastoral «tridentina» (siglos XVI-XVII)
2021
Los reyes de España, entre los siglos XVI y XVII, utilizaron las sedes episcopales del reino de Sicilia como «reserva de caza» en favor de distinguidos prelados españoles de origen judeoconverso. Y eso porque, de hecho, su sangre «manchada» les dificultaba acceder a las sillas ibéricas. Lo que se pretende averiguar es si la condición judeoconversa de esos prelados «influyó» de alguna manera en los matices tridentinos de su actividad pastoral, «radicalizándolos», para demostrar la veracidad de su lealtad a la fe católica, en nombre de la cual habían sido perseguidos sus antepasados. En este ensayo se abordarán los casos del cardenal Luis de Torres, arzobispo de Monreale (1588-1609), y de Jua…
Itàlia i la configuració de la llegenda negra borgiana.
2015
Resum: La llegenda negra dels Borja va començar a Itàlia i la van començar els italians en el segle XV. Començada a forjar per cronistes, informadors, cardenals… i contràriament al que es podria pensar, aquesta no va començar després de la mort del segon papa Borja Alexandre VI, sinó durant el seu cardenalat, el seu pontificat i com no, després de la seua mort i continuant els segles posteriors amb acusacions falses com la simonia, el incest, els assassinats… Paraules clau: Borja, Roderic de Borja, Alexandre VI, llegenda negra, Bichi, Tiara, papa, conclave, simonia, Ascanio Sforza. Abstract: The black legend of Borja began in Italy and Italians began in the fifteenth century. Created by r…
Making Bishops in the Malta of the Knights, 1530-1798
2015
During the early modern age the appointment of Maltese bishops involved conflicts in the management of ecclesiastical patronage, jurisdictional issues and international diplomacy. The procedure for appointment, established by Charles v in 1530 when he granted Malta to the Order of St John, was the result of a compromise: safeguarding rights of royal patronage without undermining the independence of an international military order. It is important, however, to underline the reforming activity conducted by bishops appointed in such political ways, especially through the application of some institutions provided by the Council of Trent, such as diocesan synods.
From Spain to Sicily after the Expulsion: Conversos between Economic Networks and the Aristocratic Elite
2018
Abstract This article focuses on a group of conversos families from Spain, who established themselves in Palermo after the Expulsion of the Jews in 1492. There they supported financial activities of the Nazione Catalana and established strong relationships with the local aristocracy. Thanks to this alliance, they managed to avoid persecution by the Spanish Inquisition, “cleanse” their “impure” blood and reach high positions within politics and society: feudal titles, political and financial offices, habits of military orders, ecclesiastical appointments and sometimes even sainthood. Firstly, the paper will give a brief sketch of the phenomenon of conversos in Sicily as well as the activitie…

La rationalité simonienne : interprétations et enjeux épistémologiques
1999
Since economics focuses on individual behaviour and implicitly adopt a methodological individualism, an individual rationality hypothesis must be laid down. Beyond the usual substantive rationality hypothesis, others forms of individual rationality can be found in economics theory. They are often related to the Simon's bounded rationality hypothesis. In the economics literature the meanings of the bounded rationality hypothesis are obviously diverse and sometimes based on a partial or superficial readings of Simon's writings. Moreover, each one of these meanings is implicitly closely linked with a particular methodological and epistemological position. Based on careful readings of Simon's w…
