Over - And Understatements In Bishop Czaja’s Pastoral Letter To His Diocesans
2020
The Catholic Church is the largest religious faction in Poland, the country being organisationally divided into church dioceses governed by bishops. The letter by the bishop of Opole, Andrzej Czaja may be read in more than one way. One of them is the bona fide (i.e., good faith) one, the reading which assumes his sincerity, presumably the one that had been intended by the author for his diocesans to use. The other is less cooperative and sees some cases of over- and understatements in the text. This can be linguistically studied using the pragmatic theories of H.P. Grice and G.N. Leech. The present paper addresses both these readings as they fit into a global picture. Every lay person is to…

L’occhio rivelatore. Iconologia ed ermeneutica dello sguardo in Leonardo Sciascia
2012
Il presente saggio si propone d’indagare, anche con l’ausilio di diverse illustrazioni, il significato delle immagini nell’opera di Leonardo Sciascia, così come il suo personale approccio alla realtà, guidato da una vera e propria ermeneutica dello sguardo. Ne consegue l’individuazione di una fitta e stratificata rete intertestuale – all’insegna della circolarità di temi e motivi iconografici - e il riconoscimento di un’attitudine pittorico-visiva che sostanzia la scrittura dell’autore. L'articolo è corredato di numerose immagini.

‘‘This is my home, too’’: Migration, spectrality and hospitality inRoberta Torre’s Sud Side Stori (2000)
2011
The article explores Roberta Torre’s film Sud Side Stori (2000), an extravagant Italian re-vision of Romeo and Juliet set in the Sicilian city of Palermo which displays awareness of the global circulation of the story of the two ‘‘star-crossed lovers’’. In the film, which combines neo-realist cinematographic techniques with the artificial style of the musical, Shakespeare’s young lovers become Toni Giulietto, a lousy local rock singer, and Romea Wacoubo, a beautiful Nigerian prostitute who falls in love with him when she sees him standing on his balcony. Not unlike West Side Story, the inter-racial passion between Toni and Romea exacerbates pre-existing ethnic conflicts. It is opposed not o…
Novellistica del tardo Trecento. Studi e questioni critiche.
2016
The minority paradigm attributed to late 14th century storytellers reveals its insufficiency in the light of the most recent theoretical debate on gender.In the essay it is observed how the adoption of a narrative subject highlights, in the novelistic texts in question, an asymmetrical textual ratio, the mixture of literary and spoken language, are elements of an experimental tension. In the Autumn of the Middle Ages, the metamorphosis of the novel, considered in the face of contemporary figurative languages, also brings to light the dynamic game of plural and unitary, closed and open, as a founding trait of modern narrative processes.
Preso alla lettera. Il significato letterale come problema normativo.
2011
La nozione di significato letterale ha uno strano destino: per un verso, sembra costituire un ingrediente costitutivo dei nostri commerci linguistici; per un altro, nessuno sa bene cosa sia. Nel saggio esaminiamo ipotesi di lavoro sull'argomento mettendo a fuoco incertezze e punti di riflessione problematici.
Parola e silenzio nell'ultimo Cicerone: il caso della Philippica I
2017
Il silenzio e la parola sono, più che temi posti ad oggetto della riflessione dell’ultimo Cicerone, poli di una dialettica identitaria entro la quale egli prova a far rientrare il proprio profilo esistenziale. Tornato a Roma dopo Farsàlo, dopo esser rimasto a lungo in attesa del benestare al suo rientro da parte di Cesare, nell’aprile del 46 Cicerone rompe il silenzio completando in breve tempo il Brutus. Si tratta di un’opera dal profilo letterario ibrido cui egli affida il compito di testimoniare il suo ritorno entro una dinamica di reciprocità amicale, letteraria e sociale attraverso una ricostruzione dell’oratoria romana, ad uso di una compagine politica di cui, negli eventi convulsi de…
Anastasija Verbickaja, o il decadentismo per le masse
2012
1910 is remembered in Russian culture as the year when symbolism declares its crisis, when the post-symbolist movements move their first steps. But a look at the publishing figures is enough to understand that this process passed unnoticed by the majority of the reading public. In early XX-th century, popular literature was already an important and complex phenomenon. The readers of dime novels had no notion of the highbrow movements; the “people's intelligentsia”, on the other hand, opposed them as enemies to their values of social commitment. Anastasia Verbickaia, one of the leaders of the market in the first two decades of the century, although her career had started in the same field, i…
