Sichelgaita di Salerno, principessa longobarda, nei «Gesta Roberti Wiscardi» di Guglielmo il Pugliese

2020

L’articolo è dedicato alla raffigurazione della principessa longobarda Sichelgaita di Salerno, seconda moglie di Roberto il Guiscardo, nei «Gesta Roberti Wiscardi» di Guglielmo il Pugliese, l’unico poema epico-storico dei secc. XI-XII che tratti della conquista normanna dell’Italia meridionale. In questa nota, Sichelgaita viene presentata attraverso il suo profilo storico e biografico e alla luce della disamina di alcuni passi del poema (in particolare, II 416-443). This paper is devoted to the figure of Robert Guiscard’s second wife, the Lombard princess Sichelgaita of Salerno, in William of Puglia’s «Gesta Roberti Wiscardi», the only epic-historical poem of XIth-XIIth centuries that deals…

Le cinéma roumain pendant la période communiste : représentations de l'histoire nationale

2011

The subject of this PhD dissertation is the historical reconstructions films produced in Romania under communist rule and more precisely between 1960 and 1989. It analyses the social and cultural significance of the representation of national past but also the social and political aspects involved in the production process. In order to understand these research objectives our approach we stress first various logics which chairing the state action towards the culture and in particular towards the cinematography. We intend to analyze the economic, political and ideological conditions of the film production, the directives concerning the general thematic and the orientation that the party trie…

Vox Naturae: The Myth of Animal Nature in the Latin Roman Republic

2016

The paper examines the representation of animals as embodiment of nature in the culture of the late Roman republic. By discussing a selection of passages from Sallust, Cicero and Lucretius in conjunction with other Greek and Latin sources, the paper shows that the typically Western myth of 'animal nature' - the cultural belief that animal mirror a perennial state of nature, as opposed to human society - played a very important role in the ethical debate of the first century BC and took in this period a form which was bound to influence the centuries to come.

First record of Anisian deposits in the Betic External Zone of southern Spain and its paleogeographical implications

2023

In the External Zones of the Betic Cordillera (S Spain), upper Muschelkalk (Ladinian) facies have been known for decades; however, so far there is no stratigraphic record of Anisian deposits. In the present study, new biostratigraphic data from a carbonate succession in the easternmost Subbetic domain reveal a Pelsonian-Illyrian (Anisian) age. The nautiloids Germanonautilus salinarius and Germanonautilus saharonicus are documented for the first time in the Iberian Peninsula, and together with the brachiopod Tetractinella trigonella and the bivalves Neoschizodus orbicularis and Myophoria vulgaris they represent marker fossils of Anisian deposits previously described from many other basins, b…

I frammenti della Tebaide di Antimaco di Colofone: traduzione e commento

Il presente lavoro consiste in una traduzione dei frammenti attribuiti alla Tebaide di Antimaco di Colofone (1-66 M.), nonché delle fonti che li tramandano, seguita da un commento sul piano morfologico, sintattico, lessicale, critico-testuale e tematico. Ciascun frammento analizzato, sebbene consti di pochi versi, talora di un solo verso o di una semplice glossa, comporta complesse questioni di natura testuale ed esegetica. In tal senso l'edizione di Matthews, lo studio di Lombardi e di Pérez - Pérez offrono modelli, rispetto ai quali tale lavoro ha integrato i dati del commento con quelli desumibili dalla letteratura scientifica apparsa successivamente, e con nuove osservazioni e proposte …

Canopy Architecture Appraisal by Fractal Dimension of 'Flordastar' Peach Trees Grafted onto Different Rootstocks

2007

The objective of this research was to evaluate the modification of canopy architecture of ''Flordastar'' peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) grafted onto rootstocks with different vigour, by the use of fractal dimension (D). The hypothesis was that different vigour rootstocks are able to modify the complexity of the branching pattern and that this effect can be assessed by a geometric parameter such as the fractal dimension (D) of the 2D projection of tree branching structure. The observations were carried out in a four-year-old experimental orchard of cv. ''Flordastar'' peach trees grafted onto Ishtara, Barrier, GF677 and MrS 2/5 rootstocks. On digital pictures of leafless, dormant peach tree…

The objective of this research was to evaluate the modification of canopy architecture of ''Flordastar'' peach (Prunus persica L. Batsch) grafted onto rootstocks with different vigour by the use of fractal dimension (D). The hypothesis was that different vigour rootstocks are able to modify the complexity of the branching pattern and that this effect can be assessed by a geometric parameter such as the fractal dimension (D) of the 2D projection of tree branching structure. The observations were carried out in a four-year-old experimental orchard of cv. ''Flordastar'' peach trees grafted onto Ishtara Barrier GF677 and MrS 2/5 rootstocks. On digital pictures of leafless dormant peach trees the tree skeleton was manually depicted by an image analysis software to measure total length and angles of insertion of branches. Bitmaps of the skeleton were then subjected to a specific software (FDCALC) able to calculate D by the "box counting" method. To account for the error introduced by analyzing a three dimensional structure with its 2D projection measurements were done on two images per tree taken from two different viewing angles. Results are shown in relation to tree vigour of the scion/stock combination. Fractal dimension was related to the vigour ranking of the graft combinations tested. In particular vigorous scion/stock combinations showed the highest D.HorticultureCanopy architectureHorticultureRootstockFractal dimensionMathematics

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

La estructura retórica y la inspiración senequiana de la Canción al Oro de Juan de Jáuregui

2020

Este artículo estudia el diseño retórico de la ?Canción al Oro? del poeta sevillano Juan de Jáuregui y rastrea los textos de Séneca que pudieron inspirarle, así como otros pertenecientes a Horacio, Virgilio y Ovidio, conforme a la práctica renacentista de la imitatio. Entre las formas líricas y retóricas que se reconocen destacan el himno, la priamel y el epichirema, y en lo referente a las fuentes primarias se concluye que las Epistulae morales y el tratado De beneficiis de Séneca tuvieron un papel relevante.
