DENN, EIGENTLICH, ÜBERHAUPT - THREE “PRAGMATIC PARTICLES” IN GERMAN
2015
A peculiarity of the German language is the extensive use of “pragmatic particles” in spoken language. These particles are generally called Abtönungspartikel (“modulating particles”) and are used to modulate the speaker’s attitude. They have an elusive meaning which is quite difficult for non-native speakers to discern, and they are a challenge to translate into Italian due to the lack of equivalents. Three particularly interesting particles are “denn”, “eigentlich” and “überhaupt”, which are typical of the speech act of asking questions. After a general introduction to the vast field of conversational particles (showing how differently German grammars treat this topic), the present contrib…
SISTEMI VERDI COME CULTURA RIGENERATIVA: STRUMENTI E TECNOLOGIE
2021
The study analyzes and proposes in the historical and in the area immediately to it adjacent, the "values-nature" of the buildings through the creation of gardens wall and vertical gardens in the elevatiloy of non-monumental buildings. The study deepens in particular the specificity of the garden roof and the garden vertical, recognizing benefits and critical issues that distinguish these green systems for construction. It also deepens the concept of resilience in close relationship sustainability and regenerative design applied to the built environment. The theme of regenerative design is studied and promoted as an adaptive strategy at the design stage; it requires you to leave nature stre…

The Big Meaning of Small Messages
2019
Here, instant messaging as a mode of everyday communication in digital families is taken up for examination. We look, in particular, into the qualities that make WhatsApp an attractive communication tool for extended families: it allows both one-to-one and one-to-many interactions and provides multiple modalities for intergenerational family communication (voice, text, photos and videos). Empirical evidence and qualitative data collected in Finland and Italy in 2014–2015 are drawn upon and analysed in advancing the argument that the success story of WhatsApp in the family context is related to way it enables reaching the whole family at once and promotes ‘phatic communion’ via small message…
Emission factors related to vehicle modal activity
2011
Polluting emissions depend on vehicle characteristics and on traffi c conditions expected after the construction of a road project. Nevertheless, in the assessment of new projects, the task of road designer becomes uncertain when the reduction in polluting emissions has to be evaluated. Moreover, vehicle emissions are highly linked to modal vehicle activity, but current emission rate models do not properly predict on-road vehicle emissions produced by modal traffi c events, as those occurring at intersections. Modal emission models require the analysis of modal activity at a microscale level in order to evaluate emission factors by a single mode (idle, acceleration, deceleration, and cruise…
"From experience to existence. The taste, the social, the modal "
2018
International audience; On s'accordera avec Barthes « le discours est en droit d'attaquer la nourriture sous plusieurs pertinences ; c'est en somme un fait social total, autour duquel on peut convoquer des métalangages variés » (1975). Et Barthes de noter combien « c'est cet encyclopédisme-cet « humanisme »-que recouvre, pour Brillat-Savarin, le nom de gastronomie ». Le goût à lui seul s'étire entre saveur et valeur, du biologique au symbolique, au point de créer parfois une pomme de discorde entre sciences exactes et sciences humaines, à moins d'ouvrir au contraire un vaste champ interdisciplinaire. En somme, on pourrait trouver facilité à multiplier ainsi les approches sur le goût, mais d…
