The glosses of the Cant of Joan Antoni Almela in the fourth centenary of the canonization of Saint Vicent Ferrer (València, 1855)

2017

[Resumen] Existe una larga tradición en catalán de glosas explicativas a palabras consideradas obscuras o anticuadas en textos literarios antiguos. Esta tradición se remonta al siglo XVI, con la publicación de la obra de Ausiàs March, a causa del cambio de modelo de lengua literaria que se produce con el Renacimiento. Esta clase de glosas continúan durante los siglos XVII, XVIII y XIX, con una finalidad sobre todo actualizadora, para facilitar la lectura de los textos antiguos al lector moderno. El poeta valenciano del siglo XIX Joan Antoni Almela, comprometido con la restauración de la lengua literaria a partir del modelo de los clásicos, se vale también de este recurso para facilitar al l…

Re-drawing of vanished space: Casa Giobbe della Bitta by Marcello Piacentini

2020

Ha ancora un senso oggi, nel tempo dominato dall’immagine e dal suo potere, interrogarsi sulle ragioni e sulle potenzialità del Disegno di Architettura? Potremmo sfruttare, invece, questa forza immateriale che pervade la nostra era contro il modus operandi della tabula rasa che interessa il patrimonio del moderno in Italia? Un tentativo di risposta a queste domande potrebbe giungere dallo studio di un’opera non più esistente di Marcello Piacentini, Casa Giobbe della Bitta, del 1925. A partire dal ridisegno critico dell’edificio, si vuol tentare una decodifica dell’architettura svanita, analizzandone forme e matrici geometriche che l’hanno generata; la modellazione tridimensionale digitale, …

Textiles in blue : production, consumption and material culture in rural areas in early-nineteenth century Finland

2021

The article focuses on masculine consumption patterns and the production and dyeing of textiles in rural Finland in the early nineteenth century.

The article targets an era that can be regarded as a watershed: this was a time when mass production was in its infancy and craft production and self-sufficiency were still relevant to household economies. As the wealth of certain groups, particularly landed peasantry, increased, they began among other things to purchase and wear clothes dyed with imp…

Religious participation in the local communities of 17th-century Eastern Finland

2022

In recent years, the perspective of lived religion has drawn attention toward the everyday religious practices of the laity. In early-modern Europe, the realm of the sacred could be approached in different ways from within the mundane world, and religious practices were tightly intertwined with social life. In local communities, religious ideas and practices taught by the church in varying ways intermingled with traits from local religious traditions. This article examines the different ways of religious participation available to the rural inhabitants of late 17th century Eastern Finland, a part of the kingdom of Sweden during the early modern era. Applying the concept and approach of live…
