Un barrio marginado no es un barrio marginal. A propósito de Nazaret (Valencia)
2016
This article takes us to Nazaret, an outlying district on Valencia’s waterfront which we consider from three complementary perspectives: the synchronic vision of its current socio-spatial structure, the diachronic and processual contextualization of the changes it has undergone in the last century, and the perceptions and images which characterize the neighbourhood, together with the features, activity and incidence of its associative fabric. The analysis focuses on the behaviour of a set of interconnected factors, including the impact of the port and urban development policy, its socioeconomic make-up, the consistency of its associative fabric and its relations with government. Whereas the…
Memory in action – Performative practices in a dispute about the past: Serbia and Croatia at the turn of the 20th and 21st century
2019
Memory in action – Performative practices in a dispute about the past: Serbia and Croatia at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuryThe article is an attempt to combine in one reflection the elements of two directions of critical thinking: discursive and performative. The starting point of the analysis is the assumption (derived from beliefs common in pre-performative times) that every space (including a city’s territory) can be treated as a text. This means that both static artifacts and activities in a given space communicate a certain message and can be seen as signs or symbols that refer to something outside of them. Our reflection focuses on practices in which the performative potential …
Rituales, descentramientos territoriales y niveles de identidad: La Semana Santa Marinera de Valencia
2011
The aim of this paper is to study how the processes of spatial and identity recomposition brought about by a globalized world affect traditional religious rituals, with particular reference to the <i>Semana Santa Marinera</i> processions in Valencia (Spain). Instead of the ritual giving rise to a single local identity, it can be seen that levels of local identity —while not disappearing— overlap more and more with increasingly vague new territorialities ranging from processional networks based on canon law to state-organized meetings. Media coverage of the ritual means that new virtual communities with no fixed territorial base are created, and the complexity of this phenomenon …

2013
This article discusses the topic of censorship in the communist Poland. It presents a description of the functioning of the office of censorship (Main Office for the Control of Presentations and Public Performances; Główny Urzęd Kontroli Prasy, Publikacji i Widowisk) as well as other forms of informal influence on the authors working for public publishing houses. The underground publications suppressed during the Stalin era as well as difficulties encountered by Polish historians after 1956 will be the subject of the analysis. Furthermore, the article indicates the complementary role of the underground publishers after 1970. These publishing houses had a significant impact on the birth of p…

La memòria recuperada: l’ús dels relats biogràfics en la segona i tercera generació dels emigrants valencians als Estats Units d’Amèrica a principi d…
2021
És habitual quan es fa ús del mètode biogràfic recollir els relats directament d'aquells que van viure els fets narrats, siguin estos tota una vida o alguns aspectes que l'investigador desitgi que siguin destacats. En la investigació duta a terme sobre la recuperació de la memòria dels emigrants valencians als Estats Units d'Amèrica durant les dues primeres dècades del segle XX això es presenta com un fet impossible: els que van viure en primera persona l'emigració ja han desaparegut. Es podria pensar que amb ells desapareixien també les seues històries. Però gràcies a un exhaustiu treball amb els seus descendents (filles i fills, nétes i néts, nebodes i nebots) i fent ús de tècniques que s…

The Polish language at the Latvian University in RigaThe history of teaching of Polish language in the University of Latvia (LU) starts soon after its establishment in 1919. In the 1930s thanks to such famous scientists as Julian Krzyżanowski and Stanisław Kolbuszewski, the number of subjects connected with the Polish culture has increased at the Faculty of Philology and Philosophy and the Latvian society was introduced to the numerous works of these professors, published in different publications in Latvia. After the Second World War, Polish language has been taught within Russian philology with the aim of comparison Eastern and Western Slavic language groups. At the same time scientific w…
Introduzione

1. Preambolo La bombola del gas sembra vuota, le manopole della cucina sono, in aggiunta e in definitiva cessazione di ogni speranza di avere fuoco, ossidate e inutilizzabili. I ragazzi mi guardano preoccupati, attoniti: la festa campestre, tanto agognata, pare essere irrimediabilmente perduta. Ma siamo al Mulino, l’antica residenza rurale dove ho trascorso lunghe estati con unici compagni di giochi mio fratello, ramarri e lucertole, grilli e cicale, scursuna e granchi di fiume. E al Mulino i...
L’allattamento tra cura e cultura: dall’Africa all’ipertrofia tecnologica
2017
L’allattamento è una pratica finora poco studiata dall’antropologia culturale e medica, atto che si colloca tra la natura e la cultura, tra la sfera privata e quella sociale della donna e che, come la nascita e la gravidanza. Esso esprime in dinamiche biopolitiche che denotano l’organizzazione della società stessa, le gerarchie nei ruoli e i rapporti di genere. In quanto pratica culturale, l’allattamento si differenzia in base all’appartenenza sociale ed etnica della madre e del neonato, portando con sé delle differenze rituali come nella legge della “parentela di latte” nelle società musulmane o nei tabu apotropaici dell’Africa subsahariana. Il saggio propone alcune riflessioni su quanto t…
