Merging science and arts to communicate nature conservation
2015
Abstract As a response to overall negative attitudes on nature conservation, Latvian scientists and artists launched a new initiative to communicate biodiversity. Unlike previous efforts, this initiative also included arts (poetry, music, dance and photo/video) as part of the information campaign. This project, named Nature Concert Hall, has been very successful between 2006 and 2012 in terms of receiving national and international recognition; this paper aimed to evaluate its efficiency in increasing the public’s knowledge and awareness of nature conservation issues and pro-environmental behaviour. We used an electronic web-form survey to investigate the views of the Nature Concert Hall’s …
Ethnographic Monitoring: Hymes's Unfinished Business in Educational Research
2011
This essay describes the process of Hymesian monitoring, a collaborative effort to understand voice in education, so crucial in Hymes's later work. A report of ethnographic monitoring in 1970s Philadelphia and a recent collaborative project in the Caribbean demonstrate how one can work from the voice of the pupil, through that of the analyst toward that of the teacher and back, checking what each party brought into the analysis and treating each of these voices as legitimate.

On ‘Visual Implication’: Outline of a Theory
2017
Most of us are ready to accept the view that the front elevation of a building is essentially determined by such openings of the wall as windows, doors, bays, and niches. Especially their location and their sizes create a compound of parts and details that appear as an orderly arrangement, as it might be called. Normally we are able to feel when everything seems to be in order, in the right place, thus creating a good and balanced picture of the wall. The lack of such an order can be felt equally easily. One reason of seeing such a balanced order, and/or the lack of it, is the system of rectangles presented by the openings within the parameter rectangle formed by the whole wall. It is easy …
“Come, Dark-eyed Sleep”: Michael Field and the Performance of the Lyric as a Radical Fantasy
2021
This article seeks to illustrate how the Michael Fields articulate their Sapphic poetry in Long Ago (1889) not only in keeping with their own Shakespearean aspirations and with Robert Browning’s hybrid formula of dramatic lyrics, but also in connection with Jonathan Culler’s theory of the lyric as a performative genre. Much recent scholarship has broken ground in the rediscovery and reappraisal of the Fields’ literary stature, yet the general critical approach has been divisive in addressing their poetry and their verse dramas separately. Some critics have taken heed of how their lyrics in general exhibit an intrinsic dramatic temper, yet no systematic inquiry has discussed how this lyrical…
L'epigramma «Ad Carolum regem Francorum» di Enea Silvio Piccolomini fra dimensione encomiastica e professione di poetica
2016
This paper offers a strict analysis of Enea Silvio Piccolomini’s epigram 24 Van Heck (Ad Carolum regem Francorum), composed by the young humanist in praise of Charles VII of Valois, king of France, in july 1429 – and then soon after his coronation, which had place at Reims the 17th of July 1429: an "epigramma longum" (46 hexameters), in which we can find the admiration and the courtly exaltation of the new king of France, and the conception (classic and, particularly, Horatian) of the poetry who can make eternal the glory of the famous men.
Coming to Know Epicurus’ Truth: Distributed Cognition in Lucretius’ De Rerum Natura
2020
Until recently, Descartes' idea that the human mind is, by definition, a non-extended entity (res cogitans, non extensa), enclosed in the body but constitutionally different from common bodily and external realities, found wide acceptance among students of cognitive sciences. But in the past few years the barriers between outer and inner worlds have begun to blur, projecting the process of cognition as a complex distributed phenomenon. According to the so-called distributed cognition thesis (and its more “radical” version, the extended mind hypothesis), “the thinker in this world is a very special medium that can provide coordination among many structured media – some internal, some externa…

Reminiscenze e rielaborazioni avianee in due carmi di Bellino Bissolo (Spec. vite I 5; I 9)
2020
L'intervento è dedicato alla figura e all'opera di Bellino Bissolo, poeta milanese del Duecento, autore di tre testi didattico-moralistici in latino e in distici elegiaci, il «Liber legum moralium», il «De regimine vite et sanitatis» e, soprattutto, lo «Speculum vite». Nella prima parte del testo viene tracciato lo "status quaestionis" relativo all'autore, all'opera e agli studi su di essa. La seconda e più ampia parte è invece fondata sulla lettura e l'analisi di due brevi componimenti dello «Speculum vite» (I 5; I 9), di carattere e impianto narrativo-favolistico, per entrambi i quali si ipotizza una fruizione, da parte del Bissolo, delle favole di Aviano, che tanto successo hanno avuto n…
