Job insecurity among temporary workers: Looking through the gender lens
2014
Based on the gender model and the life context model, the financial and domestic responsibilities and expectations associated with getting a new assignment are tested as potential gender specific moderators of the link between job insecurity and commitment, performance, and depressive moods. In a cross-sectional international questionnaire study of 1981 temporary workers’ three-way interactions between job insecurity, gender, and the moderators were tested. Expectations play a moderating role for women only, intensifying the negative relationship between job insecurity and commitment. Financial responsibility strengthened the negative relationship of job insecurity with commitment, as well…
Self-esteem and Occupational Self-efficacy as Mediators of the Associations between Perceived Organizational Support, Work Engagement and Job Satisfa…
2012
Introduction: Previous research has documented greater vulnerability and exposure to stress among temporary workers due to labor uncertainty, especially in cases where temporary workers are considered peripheral workers in whom employers are unlikely to invest foster long-term organizational commitment and motivation to work (Becker, 1993; Amuedo-Dorantes 2000; De Cuyper & De Nitte, 2005; De Cuyper at al., 2008). Many characteristics of temporary employment adds to the vulnerability of temporary workers: poor job characteristics, highly monotonous work (Hall 2006), lower influence on workplace decisions (Aronsson et al. 2002; Parker et al. 2002), lower job satisfaction and lower organizatio…
Per un approccio retorico alle emozioni. Aristotele, Retorica, II,1-11
2021
Il saggio analizza la sezione della “Retorica” di Aristotele dedicata alle passioni (II, 1-11). Il principale elemento di novità che la prospettiva aristotelica è in grado di introdurre nel dibattito contemporaneo sulle emozioni consiste nella natura specificamente retorica dell’indagine in grado di far emergere, di più e meglio che in altre prospettive, il nesso tra corpo, linguaggio e socialità nell’animale umano.
Non solo Platone. Il primato dell'oralità nel retore Alcidamante
2020
Il saggio è dedicato all’orazione Sugli autori dei discorsi scritti o sui sofisti, attribuita al retore Alcidamante, discepolo di Gorgia e attivo in Atene tra il 410 e il 365 a.C. Argomento dell’orazione è il serrato confronto tra due differenti modalità oratorie, l’autoschediazein (“parlare a braccio”) — cui Alcidamente accorda una netta superiorità — e il "gegrammena legein (“pronunciare discorsi scritti”). L’interesse di questo testo (databile con buona approssimazione intorno al 390 a. C) consiste essenzialmente nel rappresentare un punto di vista specificamente retorico sulla questione delle differenze tra scritto e parlato. Nonostante alcune significative convergenze con il ben più ce…
Traducción y recepción: Rosalía de Castro en Italia
2020
El panorama de la recepción italiana contemporánea de los poetas españoles del siglo XIX, a través de las traducciones, no resulta especialmente satisfactorio, puesto que hay que esperar el siglo siguiente para encontrar los primeros estudios monográficos y ediciones de textos en traducción, aunque en forma antológica. Ello, no obstante, así como en el resto de Europa, el corpus de las publicaciones periódicas de las revistas ofrece un canal editorial muy proficuo para la recepción de textos literarios extranjeros. Este trabajo se centra en la presencia de la obra de Rosalía de Castro en la prensa italiana contemporánea. Al mismo tiempo, se ha intentado completar el estudio de la recepción …
Structure and form. Changes of state in architecture – from modern to contemporary
2016
The relationship between the terms Structure and Form, while expressing a consideration on the tectonic component of composition, registers a cyclical evolution of the archi-tecture of the building. The solidity of the Modern, the liquidity of "post-modern conditions", the evaporation of the contemporary aesthetics of disappearance outline a return to a solid state of the matter outlining the basic assumption of formal research in architecture in the sculptural mass of the building.
Ucieczka od autobiografizmu - pisanie w drugim języku jako strategia (samo)obronna
2022
The author discusses two examples of writing in a language different from writers’ mother tongue: Jan Novak i Tomasz Jedrowski. A novel by Novak Million Dollar Kit never was published in English and is available for Czech readers in translation only. Debut novel by Jedrowski Swimming in the Dark was written in English for an English audience. The main subject of the article is to analyse possible motivations that led the writers to a decision of writing in their second language using contemporary linguistic and cognitivist theories.
Distribution, ecology and conservation survey on Trifolium michelianum Savi (Fabaceae) in Sicily (Italy)
2013
We report the identification of four residual stations for Trifolium michelianum Savi (Fabaceae) in Sicily, whereas the species was documented to be extinct at the Gorgo Cerro station (western Sicily), the only locality previously reported in the literature. In addition to an update on the distribution of the species, a survey on the new Sicilian populations led to their biological, ecological and phytosociological characterization, as well as to an assessment of the risk factors. The species, here relegated to the limit of its distribution area, occurs in particularly sensitive and vulnerable environments, such as the “Mediterranean temporary ponds”, considered “priority” by the Council Di…
Del museo al aula : propuesta para la creación de prácticas artístico-didácticas entre iguales
2019

La palabra como acontecimiento: Segunda República, Guerra Civil y posguerra en la novela actual (1990-2010)
2013
Esta tesis analiza las representaciones de la Segunda República, la Guerra Civil y la posguerra en un corpus de novelas, escritas entre 1990 y 2010, relacionadas con el “fenómeno de la memoria”. En este trabajo se entiende por “fenómeno de la memoria” o “cultura de la memoria” la forma predominante como las sociedades occidentales se han relacionado con el pasado durante las últimas décadas. Este fenómeno internacional comporta una intensa preocupación por la memoria, el pasado y los testigos de acontecimientos traumáticos. Dicho proceso posee unas características propias en España, y se ha manifestado de forma preeminente en la literatura, que constituye por ello un espacio privilegiado pa…
