Compliance and resistance : An investigation into the construction of gender identities by Pakistani women on Facebook
2020
Facebook has recently gained popularity among young, digitally literate and predominantly urban Pakistanis. Such social networking sites allow users the freedom to express themselves using usernames, visuals and topics of their own choice. In this article, I examine how Pakistani Facebook users mobilize such resources in their identity work. Using Multimodal Discourse Analysis, I investigate how Pakistani women construct their gender identities on Facebook using visual and linguistic resources. The results revealed the significant impact of Facebook on the socio-cultural and linguistic norms of discourse in Pakistan that enables women to challenge established communication models while they…
National identity, national music and popular music in the Italian Music Press during the long 19th century
2011
Discusses the notions of national identity, national music and popular music as they emerged in Italian music periodicals during the years 1840–1890, in relation to the process of Italy’s political unification and the dissemination of foreign operas such as French grands opéras in the years 1840–1870 and Wagner’s Musikdramen from 1871 on. Essays and articles by relevant critics and musicians, such as Abramo Basevi and Francesco D’Arcais are discussed. Articles by lesser known journalists such as Pietro Cominazzi and Mattia Cipollone are also taken into account. The use of words like “national” and “popular” is analysed when referring to Italian opera, to its history and to the operas by for…
Anwendungsbezogene Transformationen antiker Literatur im Neuhumanismus und in unmittelbarer Zeitgegenwart. Ausstellungspraktische und jugenddidaktisc…
2017
Właśnie w czasach oszczędności finansowych oraz postępującego procesu ekonomizacji kultury jest ważnym fakt, aby filolodzy angażowali się również kulturowo i politycznie dla swoich autorów, nad którymi sprawują opiekę naukową, oraz w zakresie tematyki dzieł. Artykuł opisuje przygotowywaną wystawę w Domu Literatury im. Johann-Heinrich-Voß'a w Penzlin, w miejscowości, w której Voß otrzymał pierwsze impulsy rozwoju. Voß wyjaśnia propozycje szkolno-pedagogiczne, w pewnym sensie skromne warsztaty literackie, które zostaną zrealizowane w ramach wystawy stałej zatytułowanej "Johann Heinrich Voß. Grek z Mecklenburii".

Investigating former pupils’ experiences and perceptions of CLIL in Finland: a retrospective analysis
2019
The educational approach known as Content and Language Integrated Learning (CLIL), in which content is taught partly through a foreign language, has gained great popularity in Europe in the past few decades. In Finland, CLIL has been in use since 1991 and, despite some fluctuations in its popularity, has gained a relatively stable place in the Finnish education system. CLIL has been extensively studied, but previous CLIL research has mostly focused on pupils currently enrolled in CLIL. This study takes a novel perspective by investigating CLIL retrospectively, through the eyes of former pupils. The data used are in-depth interviews with 24 former pupils who attended a CLIL class in Finland …
Canciones infantiles revisitadas : las nanas en la lírica de Federico García Lorca
2005
Este estudio trata de exponer las interferencias culturales entre la esfera oral, tradicional y anónima, y la esfera culta, escrita e individual, que caracterizan las composiciones lorquianas inspiradas en cantares de arrullo. Se pone de manifiesto la especificidad de la canción de cuna en la lírica de Lorca, en contraste con otros géneros tradicionales y con algún otro autor “neopopular”. El punto de partida de tal interpretación se basa en el análisis de la famosa conferencia de finales de 1928 en que Lorca expresa su visión de la nana española como canto intrínsecamente trágico. Se analiza en un segundo momento las huellas del cantar de cuna en las primeras obras líricas de Lorca para po…
La lingua di mamma Felicia. Oralità e scrittura nella narrazione civile e testimoniale di una donna contro la mafia
2021
La narrazione orale di Felicia Bartolotta Impastato è analizzata con gli strumenti della sociolinguistica e nel quadro teorico del concetto di "popolarità della poesia". A tal fine vengono utilizzati gli apporti scientifici più importanti a partire dalla secondo metà del Novecento per giungere alla considerazione dei fenomeni che interessano l'italiano contemporaneo, soprattutto nell'ambito delle relazioni tra norma e uso. Viene presa in considerazione anche la teoria della linguistica del testo a quale, anche in questa fattispecie di ricerca, si rileva di grande efficacia, soprattutto in relazione al tema della ‘tutela’ della circolazione e della ricezione di testi a vocazione dialettale, …

Rational Herding in Reward-Based Crowdfunding: An MTurk Experiment.
2020
Crowdfunding is gaining popularity as a way of financing social sustainable initiatives. We performed a controlled economic experiment in MTurk by simulating a crowdfunding platform and developed a theoretical model that rationalizes herding behavior. The experiment was designed to test and quantify the causal effects of revealing specific information to prospective backers: (i) the number of early contributors already financing the project and (ii) positive opinions of other backers versus those of experts. The results show that early contributions to the campaign and positive opinions of peers act as a reinforcing signal to potential backers and affect backers&rsquo
