Historiografia del “Ball de Torrent”: De la moixiganga barroca al quadre de balls populars valencians (1692-1929)
2013
Resum: El Ball de Torrent és una moixiganga dramàtica popular escenificada a la ciutat de València i altres indrets del País Valencià des de finals del segle XVII fins a principis del segle XX. Estava organitzada per agrupacions gremials, juntes d’hospitals o clavaris de festes i protagonitzada per personatges agrupats en comparses que representaven una paròdia sobre les relacions entre les estructures de poder i les classes populars. Tot i la variabilitat segons el moment històric, es conforma com una mescla de quadres amb danses, música i jocs teatrals. El ball interacciona de diverses formes amb algunes festes valencianes i és, probablement, una de les mostres de teatre de carrer més nos…

Sur les traces du mouton en Gaule
2005
Concerning the evidence for sheep in Gaul.- In northern Gaul, bones of sheep and goat are found in most Iron Age sites, farms, villages, graves and shrines. It is difficult to establish a good distinction between the bones of these two species, but sheep are more numerous than goat. This short paper deals with the use of these animals in domestic and ritual practices over a long period, from the Late Bronze Age to the beginning of Roman period. The fact that these animals are represented by bones encourages the study of meat consumption. Mutton is consumed in domestic contexts, but it is also offered during banquets in shrines, public areas in villages or other places, and plays a role duri…

Aside from the official part of the celebrations, Labour Day included the entertainment part as well. In the afternoon of the lst of May numerous art and sport events, as well as games, lotteries etc. were organised in Opole and in other major localities of the voivodeship.

Madonne e Sante di Palermo. Continuità, risorgenze, invenzioni. Un omaggio a Pino Martorana
2021
A distanza di oltre un ventennio dalla scomparsa di Giuseppe Martorana (1939-2005) alcune delle tematiche centrali del suo insegnamento storico-religioso appaiono quanto mai attuali se rapportate alla vitalità con la quale Sante e Madonne siciliane sono tutt’oggi celebrate in numerose località dell’Isola. Lo studio delle figure femminili del pantheon della Sicilia antica e cristiana è stato infatti oggetto di importanti indagini da parte di Martorana da Il Riso di Demetra. Dee eroi e santi di Sicilia (1985) a Madonne e Sante di Sicilia (1995), quest’ultimo dedicato in particolare ai culti mariani dei paesi della provincia di Palermo con l’esplicita intenzione di sottolineare i peculiari rap…
Ecos de Renacimiento en la Sicilia del siglo XVI: arquitecturas para la vida de corte en la edad de Ferrante Gonzaga (1535 – 1546)
2013
L'insediarsi nel 1535 del nuovo viceré di Sicilia Ferrante Gonzaga fu un momento decisivo nel processo di rivitalizzazione culturale dell'isola e per la circolazione di nuovi modelli architettonici e di codici linguistici rinascimentali. Palermo, in quanto capitale della Sicilia, fu presto costretto ad adeguarsi alle mutate richiesta di una vita di corte, adesso più che mai contrassegnata da sofisticati cerimoniali e scandita da spettacolari occasioni festive. In questo modo edific pubblici e spazi urbani furono profondamente rinnovati per divenire la scena solenne per l'autorappresentazione del potere viceregio e, indirettamente, della Corona spagnola.Vennero costruiti una nuova villa e un…
