Una storia italiana: Giorgio e Isabella

2018

Si tratta, qui, della storia di due italiani dalla “pelle scura” raccontata, per Giorgio Marincola, da Carlo Costa e Lorenzo Teodonio in Razza partigiana e, per la sorella Isabella, da Wu Ming 2 e Antar Mohamed in Timira. Romanzo meticcio. Le loro vicende, così come molti altri aspetti della nostra storia coloniale, neocoloniale e postcoloniale, sono riemerse dal buio nel quale erano state occultate solo nell’ultimo quindicennio, grazie alla riapertura degli archivi che ha permesso di ridiscutere molti degli aspetti che nelle pagine di Storia, così come in quelle letterarie, erano stati raccontati in altro modo. I due testi, che hanno inevitabilmente finito per incontrarsi e che potremmo in…

This paper focuses on the story of two dark-skinned Italians written for Giorgio Marincola by Carlo Costa and Lorenzo Teodonio in Razza partigiana and for his sister Isabella by Wu Ming 2 and Antar Mohamed in Timira. Romanzo meticcio. The events of their lives as well as many other aspects of our colonial neocolonial and postcolonial history have re-emerged from the darkness in which they had been hidden only in the last fifteen years thanks to the reopening of the archives allowing to re-discuss many of the aspects that in the pages of History as well as in those of literature had been told in another way. The two works that could be inserted into the current defined as the "new Italian epic" dismantle a series of clichés and prejudices and invite us to reflect on the concept of Italian identity on colonialism and its consequence in the short and long term and particularly on racism.Settore L-FIL-LET/14 - Critica Letteraria E Letterature Comparate

Epistemic and didactic values of the demonstrative process in different cultures: a case study in Geometry with Chinese and Italian students

2011

This paper presents same key findings of the research project conducted by G.R.I.M. of Palermo on the approaches to justification and proof in Geometry by investigating how Chinese and Italian teachers and students taught particular geometrical topics refereed to different epistemic and didactic values related to own culture. It was found that Chinese teachers and students emphasized justification of the proof by a stressed visual verification based on some metarules linked with the structure of their own written language and defined as historical Chinese modus operandi in the Jiuzhang Suanshu. The Italians paid close attention to mathematical proof by a hypoxemic deductive system defined on the Euclide’ Elements. The geometrical problem discussed on the paper was defined and presented as “one problem multiple solution problems” and “one problem multiple changes”. Important aspect of the case study discussed in the paper focus on the mediation of knowledge between Chinese and Italian students involved in multicultural class. According to us these kind of activities can establish possibilities for the students to confront their self with different cultural social and educational prospective of knowledge discovering the power of mathematics as tool of negotiation in multicultural class?Settore MAT/04 - Matematiche Complementari

Le storie proibite sono le uniche che valga la pena di leggere, o così avrebbe potuto dire Oscar Wilde. Ma cosa c'è nella storia che suggerisce l'idea del segreto o del proibito? E per quale motivo le autrici contemporanee dovrebbero mostrare un siffatto fervore nel riscriverle? Negli ultimi decenni del ventesimo secolo e nei primi anni del nuovo millennio si è registrata una crescita della narrativa storica nella produzione delle donne: Margaret Atwood, Antonia S. Byatt, Angela Carter, Tracy Chevalier, Margaret Forster, Valerie Martin, Tony Morrison, Michèle Roberts, Katie Roiphe, Adhaf Soueif, Sarah Waters, Jeanette Winterson e molte altre [...] hanno fatto della storia, del coinvolgiment…

Sexuality and Translation: Rewriting Identities and Desires

2018

Abstract This chapter offers a panorama of research on sexuality and translation, a promising field of research still underexamined. Two directions are identified: the translation of sexuality and the sexualization of translation. The cooperation between disciplines has generated a number of new areas of study, including erotic/pornographic translation, (self)censorship in translation, and gay/queer translation. These promising lines of inquiry are briefly presented, and a few examples of analyses are added. Though much more work is needed, the critical alliance of translation and sexuality seems to be offering valuable insights into the ideological construction of a given society, particul…

Palermo strana e meravigliosa. Lo sguardo inglese e la Golden Shell nella stampa periodica d'Ottocento

2013

Questo volume mette a fuoco le interconnessioni che durante il XIX secolo legano la scrittura odeporica inglese, la pubblicazione e la diffusione del periodico e la rappresentazione della città di Palermo. I resoconti di viaggio analizzati sono pubblicati su alcuni dei periodici britannici più popolari in un arco di tempo che va dal 1800 al 1900, periodo in cui la quasi totalità dei travelogue racconta un itinerario di cui Palermo rappresenta solamente una tappa e che prevedeva la visita dell’intera isola, iniziando e concludendo il percorso nella capitale, o Messina, e proseguendo l’itinerario passando per Alcamo, Calatafimi, Segesta, Erice, Enna, Calatnissetta, Canicattì, Girgenti (l’odie…
