La Prima Guerra Mondiale nella cultura figurativa siciliana
2019
Nel volume "Dalla memoria del sacrificio alla celebrazione della Vittoria. La Prima Guerra Mondiale nella cultura artistica e architettonica siciliana", il contributo presenta una ricognizione sulla cultura figurativa in Sicilia durante la Prima Guerra Mondiale. Particolarmente interessante l'esame della ricezione artistica del primo conflitto mondiale che si manifestava da una lato nella celebrazione delle personalità eroiche che contribuirono alla vittoria dall'altro nell'interpretazione dei risvolti drammatici, collettivi e individuali, della guerra. L'indagine si concentra su un campione di dipinti, sculture e monumenti con particolare riferimento alla produzione di Mario Rutelli, Domen…
From sin to the civil order, unions outside of marriage under the law (XVI-XX century)
2011
The aim of this thesis is to understand the legal status of unmarried couples, over a period of time extending for nearly five centuries. The canon law of marriage relegated cohabitation to a permanent state of sin, and in the sixteenth century, the council of Trent prescribed severe penalties to punish cohabitation. The fathers of the council enacted rules governing the celebration of marriage. Secular authority then gradually arrogated jurisdiction in matrimonial matters by means of laws and jurisprudence. The line between marriage and cohabitation was now strictly drawn. Although the old law did not consider cohabitation as a crime, it castigated children born outside of wedlock by subje…

Celebrations were an important element in the functioning of royal and princely courts in Europe in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. They added splendor to the residences in which they were held and demonstrated the status of rulers: well-directed festivities spoke of their organisers’ political status. Such events not only took place in the closed courtyards of palaces, but also in the open air, which guaranteed a larger audience and made it possible to invite the media. Such events were also observed by foreign diplomats, who described them in their reports. This type of information can be found in the correspondence of Philip Plantamour, secretary of the English Ambassador Georg…

Imprenta y poder en el Siglo de Oro. Relaciones y avisos sobre las fiestas reales entre Palermo y Nápoles
2019
Las fiestas reales, con sus ritos y valor simbólico, fueron una herramienta estratégica para fortalecer los vínculos entre el soberano, la nobleza y el pueblo en las provincias del reino. Las relaciones impresas que se conservan sobre las celebraciones reflejan que la monarquía tenía un programa claro para gestionar el consenso político local y reforzar las jerarquías sociales existentes. Se muestran algunos aspectos de esta relación entre imprenta y poder a través de algunas relaciones de sucesos impresas en dos importantes ciudades bajo dominio español: Palermo y Nápoles. Royal celebrations, with their rites and symbolic value, were intended as a strategic tool for the Spanish Crown, in o…
Civil Religion or Nationalism? The National Day Celebrations in Norway
2021
The Norwegian National Day (17 May, also referred to as Constitution Day) stands out as one of the most popular National Day celebrations in Europe. According to surveys, around seven out of every 10 Norwegians take part in a public celebration during this day. This means that the National Day potentially has an impact on the way people reflect upon national identity and its relationship to the Lutheran heritage. In this paper, I will focus on the role religion plays in the Norwegian National Day rituals. Researchers have described these rituals as both containing a significant religious element and being rather secularized. In this article, I discuss the extent to which the theoretical con…
Riti musicali del cordoglio in Sicilia
2014
Questo testo illustra svariate pratiche vocali e strumentali (canti, lamenti, richiami, suoni di campane, ritmi dei tamburi, musiche bandistiche) associate ai riti per la celebrazione e commemorazione dei defunti, caratterizzati in Sicilia da un evidente sincretismo tra le norme dettate dalla Chiesa e gli usi popolari. I “suoni del cordoglio” sono stati analizzati sia sotto il profilo musicale sia in ordine alle funzioni sociosimboliche, ponendo in evidenza le dinamiche di persistenza e mutamento fra un recente passato e quanto è ancora oggi osservabile. L’indagine è inoltre estesa alle celebrazioni in cui si inscenano “funerali fittizi”, come quelli del Cristo nelle processioni pasquali e …
Musical Mourning Rituals in Sicily
2017
This article surveys various vocal and instrumental performances (chants, laments, calls, sounds of church bells and drums, band music) connected to the ritual celebration and commemoration of the dead that are still characterized in Sicily by a manifest syncretism between Christian Church rules and folk customs and beliefs. These “sounds of mourning” are examined in terms of both their musical aspects and their social and symbolic functions, with special attention given to the changing dynamics between the present day and the recent past. The focus also extends to include celebrations in which “fictitious funerals” are performed, such as those for Christ during the Easter procession and fo…
