New Architectural Models and Building Tradition: A Dialogue in Early Modern Sardinia - The Jesuit Church in Sassari
2014
L'architettura nella Sardegna di età moderna è caratterizzata da una forte continuità con pratiche antecedenti. Nella seconda metà del XVI secolo, nuovi modelli, legati in particolare alle nuove tendenze nel campo dell'architettura militare e il classicismo della controriforma cattolica, affiancano la tradizione costruttiva gotica.La chiesa dei Gesuiti di Sassari offre un interessante esempio di intreccio tra queste modalità architettoniche, causato da un improvviso cambio alla guida del cantiere. Giovan Maria Bernardoni, un architetto gesuita italiano, redasse il progetto iniziale della chiesa sul modello del Gesù di Roma, ed essa fu parzialmente costruita sotto la sua direzione. Dopo la s…

U.I.R.D.A. – Unbuilt Italian Rationalism Digital Archive
2018
For twenty years, the architecture of Italian rationalism through the digital modelling has been investigated. Very often, the production of a model and the consequent representation of tridimensional views, in many case studies, as outcome of the research on architecture have been considered. Actually, the digital model, intended as a critical tool, has to be conceived as a ‘starting point' for graphic analysis of architecture and not as the outcome. Indeed, it is associated to other graphics, sometimes not ‘deducted' from the model, useful for the understanding/translation of architecture. The construction of the model is not the construction of a simple image, operation, which is often c…
A New Stone on an Ancient Foundation: Traditional Liturgical Aspects in Taizé Order of Prayer
2019
Abstract During the 20th Century, the Taizé Community created a unique liturgical tradition, combining Byzantine and Latin liturgical elements with Protestant background worship. The combination of these liturgical elements concurred with the rediscovery of the old Tradition of the Church and with the entrance of a considerable number of Catholic brothers into the Taizé community. The high point of this reconsidered Tradition is the introduction of the weekly Sunday Eucharist using the Taizé liturgical order. Nonetheless, the Community maintains a Eucharistic discipline and tries to avoid intercommunion. The combination of different traditional liturgical elements on a traditional Protestan…
On Common Sense, Estimation, and the Soul’s Unity in Avicenna
2020
This paper addresses two questions related to Themistius’ alleged influence on Avicenna’s theory of the common sense. The first question concerns the phenomenon of incidental perception, which Themistius explained by means of the common sense. For Avicenna, on the contrary, the explanation of cases like our perceiving something yellow as honey involves the faculty of estimation and the entire system of the internal senses that he coined, and this results in an analysis that is considerably more complex than Themistius’. The second question concerns Themistius’ claim according to which an incorporeal spirit is the primary subject of perception. I argue that Avicenna departs from such a view …
Nuevos datos sobre la sociedad y el derecho celtibéricos: la regulación de la cabaña ganadera
2012
Basándose en varios documentos medievales, mediante los cuales los reyes de la Corona de Aragón restablecieron un tribunal especial consuetudinario (tribunal del ligallo) para devolver a sus dueños el ganado mostrenco, el Autor determina el origen de este tribunal como antiquísima institución celtibérica y reconstruye su funcionamiento y papel en las sociedades célticas de la Península Ibérica. Esta corte de justicia, propia de todas las agrupaciones celtibéricas de siete miembros (oppida), se reunía dos veces por año, coincidiendo sus sesiones con las dos grandes festividades de Beltene (1 de mayo) y de Samain (1 de noviembre), y tenía como misión resolver todos los conflictos pecuarios su…

The Abbey of Werden on the Frankish-Saxon Frontier. The Depictions of Landscapes and Emotions in the vita Gregorii and the vitae Liudgeri
2021
Abstract This study explores the depictions of landscapes and emotions in the ninthcentury hagiographies associated with Liudger: the three vitae Liudgeri and Liudger’s own vita Gregorii. The Frisian missionary founded the monastery of Werden, situated near the Frankish-Saxon frontier. It will be argued that previous historiography on early medieval frontiers has predominantly focused on the military nature of frontiers. Here, more cultural or symbolic natures of the Frankish-Saxon frontier will be discussed. The hagiographical narratives will be examined in conjunction with the notion of a frontier as a ‘third space’. The vitae Liudgeri shaped a discourse that legitimated Liudger’s transla…
