Civil Religion or Nationalism? The National Day Celebrations in Norway
2021
The Norwegian National Day (17 May, also referred to as Constitution Day) stands out as one of the most popular National Day celebrations in Europe. According to surveys, around seven out of every 10 Norwegians take part in a public celebration during this day. This means that the National Day potentially has an impact on the way people reflect upon national identity and its relationship to the Lutheran heritage. In this paper, I will focus on the role religion plays in the Norwegian National Day rituals. Researchers have described these rituals as both containing a significant religious element and being rather secularized. In this article, I discuss the extent to which the theoretical con…
Austrumu un rietumu mīti Salmana Rušdi romānā "Florences burve"
2020
Austrumu un rietumu mītiem daudzu gadsimtu garumā bijusi būtiska loma dažādos literārajos darbos. Šī pētnieciskā darba mērķis ir pierādīt, ka austrumu un rietumu mītiem ir nozīmīga loma Salmana Rušdi romānā „Florences burve”. Mērķa sasniegšanai tika studēti dažādi austrumu un rietumu mīti, ieskaitot mītus no Tuvo Austrumu folkloras stāstu krājuma „Tūkstoš un vienas nakts pasakas”, mītu par Pigmalionu un Galateju, renesanses laika dzejoļus „Orlando innamorato” un „Orlando furioso”. Rezultāti pierāda, ka austrumu un rietumu mīti Rušdi romānā ir komplicēti un pārklāj cits citu, tie skar politiskas un sociālas problēmas. Pētījumā tika pierādīts, ka eksistē būtiskas paralēles starp mītiem Salman…

Selective Kinship in Sicilian Cultural Identity: a Land Posing.
Sicilian history could be summarized as an endless succession of rulers that came from the sea. Thus Sicilian identity could be consid-ered as the epitome of a postcolonial identity, if there could be one. Its position at the exact center of the Mediterranean has made the island the gateway between European, African and Middle Eastern culture. This mix of insularity and cosmopolitism still dramatically affects the way Sicilians see themselves; in this paper my aim is to under-stand how this mix has impacted the perception of their own history by contemporary Sicilians.This paper seeks to shed light on some of the myths of the Sicilian past that influenced writers and thinkers from Sicily an…
Ragioni mostruose.
2022
In questo capitolo rielaboro la distinzione, proposta da Danblon e Donckier, tra regimi di razionalità fondati sul logos o sul mythos, proponendo una interpretazione cognitiva della ‘interazione mostruosa’ di questi due regimi che, secondo le autrici, costituirebbe uno carattere di alcune forme di comunicazione contemporanea.
Antropopoiesi eroica in Omero: Fenice maestro di Achille
2016
In chant IX of Iliad there is the long digression of Phoenix, Achilles’ pedagogue, and plays a strategic role, as is recognized by almost all scholars. For this reason, the mise en abyme is a tool to explore the ambiguous relationship between language and reality, which remain central to the relationship between Phoenix and Achilles. The mise en abyme reveals the sense of vertigo mirror between teacher and student, becoming a metaphor and representation of masterful strategy in which the teacher / parent connection, enacts generative operation and produces a continuous exchange of roles. Phoenix, teacher and “parent”, is a fragile figure, oscillating between authority and weakness.
Responsabilità e (de)merito negli epilli di Draconzio
2017
Questo intervento è centrato sui temi della responsabilità e del demerito in tre epilli mitologici di Blossio Emilio Draconzio, il più importante poeta e scrittore dell’Africa vandalica fra V e VI secolo. I tre epilli (De raptu Helenae, Medea e Orestis tragoedia) hanno una caratterizzazione cupa, opprimente e pessimistica e i loro personaggi principali (Paride ed Elena, Medea e Giasone, Clitennestra, Egisto e Oreste) vengono delineati come individui colpevoli e sciagurati, responsabili di misfatti quali l’adulterio, l’uxoricidio, il matricidio e l’infanticidio. Nella presentazione negativa dei suoi personaggi, Draconzio si discosta spesso dalla tradizione classica precedente. This paper dea…
Genèse et création du réalisme mythologique de Michel Butor
2023
Si La Modification est le roman où le mythe s’incorpore au réel, le premier roman de Butor nous permet de comprendre le processus par lequel cette conjonction s’est imposée. Il s’agira d’une part de démontrer la fonction que Passage de Milan joue dans l’affirmation des principes stylistiques de l’écriture butorienne, et, d’autre part, de laisser entrevoir à travers une analyse génétique les transformations du texte qui ont permis de renouveler la représentation du réel et d’aboutir à un système d’échos intertextuels capable de faire dialoguer les romans butoriens entre eux.
