espanolResumen: El presente trabajo versa sobre el concreto aspecto de la responsabilidad civil en Espana derivada de las intromisiones ilegitimas en la intimidad del otro conyuge, y ello con independencia de que el resarcimiento del dano se otorgue en la jurisdiccion civil o penal, pues el articulo primero de la Ley Organica 1/1982, de 5 de mayo, de proteccion civil del derecho al honor, a la intimidad personal y familiar y a la propia imagen, establece que sus criterios seran igualmente aplicables para la determinacion de la responsabilidad civil del delito.

Civil Society, Corruption and Ethnic Relations
2015
In 2007 the Estonian government began to relocate a highly contentious Soviet era war memorial from the centre of Tallinn to a nearby military cemetery. The ‘Bronze Soldier’ was erected in 1947 to honour the memory of the fallen Soviet soldiers who had fought in the battles that liberated Tallinn from German forces during the Second World War. At that time it was known as the ‘Monument to the Liberators of Tallinn’. An eternal flame was added in 1964. Following independence, Estonian authorities rededicated it to all soldiers who had died during the war and dismantled the eternal flame in an attempt to depoliticise the memorial. For ethnic Estonians, however, it remained an acrimonious symb…

The Mystery of Marriage: Mystery of Human Love Crowned in Glory and Honour. An Orthodox Perspective
2018
Abstract The Mystery of Marriage has always been understood by the Eastern Orthodox as a divinely mandated holy act, in which the grace of the Holy Spirit is communicated to the affianced man and woman, whose natural bond of love becomes thus elevated to the state of representation of the all-encompassing spiritual union between Christ and His Church. According to the patristic tradition, the service of the Mystery of Marriage invariably took place during the Liturgy and within the Eucharistic context. It was through the blessing of the bishop that the espousal love merged with the love of Christ–the true source and power of all human affection, and only then could the two become one single…
Auf den Spuren öffentlicher Meinung im mittelhochdeutschen Minnesang
2011
The scope of this study is to analyse if and how traces of public opinion, in the sociopsychological sense of social control, may be found in the German medieval love lyrics. With the aid of a hermeneutic text analysis some selected Middle High German minnesongs are exemplarily examined. The analysis shows that awareness of public opinion as social control did exist in the Middle Ages. On the one hand, there are minnesongs that raise the topics ere (honour) and spot (mockery). In these songs public mockery represents a threat of isolation against individuals who do not conform to public opinion. Because mockery may lead to loss of honour and to social isolation, mockery pressures individual…
Women in contemporary English drama translation: enhancement and downplay mechanisms to portray Golden Age damas
2011
In the last two decades British and American drama translators have shown a growing interest in the Spanish classics, resulting in English versions exclusively intended for the stage. Within this particular context, this paper is intended to provide a general view on how a motif present in the source texts, i.e. the role of women, is transferred into the target plays. A close analysis of the translated works reveals how women’s acts can be enhanced or downplayed in order to accommodate them to the recipient culture. Hence, political correctness, reaction to male domination, moral squeamishness and honour emerge as important elements to be taken into account. Conclusions will ultimately prov…

Mediterraneità e violenza di prossimità
2016
L’emersione di un fenomeno che solo apparentemente è in crescita, e che collide (si scontra) con una più generale emancipazione femminile, induce l'autrice a riflettere sulla inadeguatezza del considerare la “gender violence” come una variabile deviante dell’agire, e su come essa sia di fatto da ritenersi una vera e propria pratica “normalizzata” e istituente talune relazioni di coppia. Indicata da Ignazia Bartholini come "violenza prossimale" all'interno del saggio, per sottolinearne il carattere intimo e fiduciario che la contraddistingue, essa non viene descritta solo nei suoi effetti procedurali, ma analizzata nei suoi aspetti culturalmente radicati di "shame and honour" nell'area medit…
Thomas Hobbes on fear,mimesis,aisthesisand politics
2011
Hobbes's theory of fear has two major implications for his political theory. One implication is how men's mutual fear is the source of a commonwealth by institution. The second implication is that sovereign power is the source of fear, and that sovereign power also uses that fear to govern people. These two implications have not been analyzed fully in past studies. In a way, a sovereign captures mutual fear reigning in a multitude and transforming it into a political tool designed for government of the subjects. Possessing the right and power to cause death, a sovereign takes the place of God on earth. A sovereign has certain expectations of citizens: they should obey and honour the soverei…
