Brancati su Pirandello e il pirandellismo
2019
Nel romanzo breve "Sogno di un valzer" uscito a puntate su “Quadrivio”, dal 5 giugno al 14 agosto 1938, Vitaliano Brancati mette in scena, tra osservazione dei luoghi e rilevamento di costume, un’umanità fuori misura, continuamente in bilico tra realtà e sogno. A Caltanissetta (Nissa) la città nel cui Istituto magistrale lo scrittore, voltate le spalle alla Roma fascista, è venuto a insegnare, personaggi non appariscenti, insignificanti, che tuttavia covano desideri, si arrovellano in domande metafisiche. Prende così forma il leitmotiv delle critica al pirandellismo che più volte con ironia sottile affiora negli scritti brancatiani. Il saggio mostra come esso si intrecci con la comicità sul…
ADT implementation and completion by induction from examples
1991
There exists a fast algorithm [2] for inductive synthesis of terminating and ground confluent term rewriting systems from samples. The principles of this algorithm and the methodology of its use for implementation and completion of abstract data types are described.
Inductive synthesis of term rewriting systems
2005
Fast algorithm for inductive synthesis of term rewriting systems is described and proved to be correct. It is implemented and successfully applied for inductive synthesis of different algorithms, including the binary multiplication. The algorithm proposed supports automatic learning process and can be used for designing and implementation of ADT.
European administrative centre formation. Lessons from international bureaucracies
2011
The strengthening of administrative powers is comprehensively documented within national governments. This article asks to what extent centre formation also happens within international bureaucracies. Based on a large body of data (N=121) within three international bureaucracies, this study adds two new observations: First, administrative centre formation is primarily observed inside the European Commission and only marginally within other international bureaucracies – such as the OECD and WTO Secretariats. Moreover, within the Commission, centre formation is primarily observed at the administrative centre (the General Secretariat) and only marginally within bureaucratic sub-units. Concomit…

Postcolonial Intersections: Transnational Women Voices from Minor Italy
2017
The rising corpus of Italian postcolonial literature, mainly by women writers originally from the Horn of Africa, is urging Italian letters to engage with other contemporary transnational productions, thus challenging the notion of national canons and vertical power relations, in favor of a writing seeking for horizontal, minor connections unmediated by the center, as suggested by Francoise Lionnet and Shu-mei Shih, whose work on Minor Transnationalism draws from Deleuze & Guattari and Edouard Glissant. As a case of point, the article offers a reflection on Ubax Cristina Ali Farah's narratives and their use of language.
Lucian, a new Odysseus? : role and issue of a Homeric character in the work of Lucian of Samosata
2015
The aim of our thesis, which comes within the scope of considering the process of rewriting classic texts in the time period of the second sophistic, is to study the unique importance of Odysseus in the writings of Lucian of Samosata. At first, Odysseus is distinguished from Achilles, a character more monolithic who, even in Homer’s works is constructed in contrast to Odysseus. Moreover, from an isolated quote to intricate references, scattered to create echoes between works seemingly very different, the context in which Odysseus appears is more elaborate and subtler than that of Achilles. Hence, studying and comparing references to both heroes is sufficient to imply Odysseus’ primacy, asso…

Paradigms in the compositional practice of Irish singer-songwriters
2016
The singer-songwriter has emerged as a significant figure in contemporary Irish culture. Ireland’s monumental history in musical practice has cultivated some of the most internationally respected singersongwriters of recent decades. While much research has been devoted to the songs of Irish artists at large, little attention has been allocated to demystifying their songwriting praxis. The present work critically examines the relationship between the Irish singer-songwriter and wider mediated discourses surrounding their artistry. Independent of genre it interrogates the compositional practices of performing songwriters by way of phenomenological study. Specifically, the lived experience of …
