Non-invasive Geophysical Surveys in Search of the Roman Temple of Augustus Under the Cathedral of Tarragona (Catalonia, Spain): A Case Study
2018
An integrated geophysical survey has been conducted at the Tarragona’s Cathedral (Catalonia, NE Spain) with the aim to confirm the potential occurrence of archaeological remains of the Roman Temple dedicated to the Emperor Augustus. Many hypotheses have been proposed about its possible location, the last ones regarding the inner part of the Cathedral, which is one of the most renowned temples of Spain (twelfth century) evolving from Romanesque to Gothic styles. A geophysical project including electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and ground probing radar (GPR) was planned over 1 year considering the administrative and logistic difficulties of such a project inside a cathedral of religious…

This book brings together the papers presented at the Conference held in Messina at the Department of Ancient and Modern Civilisations on 29 and 30 October 2014 in memory of Vincenzo Aiello.

La alternancia de la oratio recta y de la oratio obliqua en los discursos intercalados de la historiografía romana
2009
Siguiendo la tradición griega, los historiadores romanos incluían en sus obras desarrollos oratorios de sus personajes, alternando la oratio recta, que reproducía de forma supuestamente literal las palabras de los protagonistas, y la oratio obliqua, caracterizada por la reubicación del discurso en relación a las coordinadas espacio-temporales de su propio enunciado. Este método de reproducción discursivo tuvo un desarrollo inusitado en la lengua latina por no necesitar un verbo introductor ante cada nuevo enunciado. Un repaso de la historiografía romana permite entrever las evidentes diferencias de uso entre las diversas épocas y los diferentes historiadores: algunos no incluyeron en sus ob…
Les Amazones com a model d´inversió social
2013
La figura de l´Amazona, singularitzada en les diverses reines que apareixen al llarg de la literatura des de l´època grega, es caracteritza per la pertanyença a un estat ginecocràtic que trenca les normes socials tant de l´Antiga Grècia com de les societats cristianes de l´Occident europeu. Normalment aquesta inversió és castigada pels autors, o bé amb la mort al combat, com a l´Antiguitat, o bé amb la derrota amorosa que les fa participar de bon grat de la societat patriarcal establerta. En tot cas, el punt de vista dels autors és força variat i també manifesta una admiració per la valentia d´aquestes dones de naturalesa indòmita, qualitat que les fa encara més atractives als ulls del sexe…

Alberi e culti. Un contributo all’analisi degli elementi paesistici nella scultura a rilievo di età romana
2018
In the relief sculpture of Roman age, trees can perform different tasks, regardless of the type of monument they are represented in. In most cases trees are secondary elements, concurring to define the environment in which the carved scene takes place. But sometimes they assume a more important value and thus significatively contribute to the understanding of the content represented. A very interesting example in this regard we can see in a relief sculpted scene on a marble altar dedicated to the Matronae, coming from the Roman town of Angera, where four female devotees appear, engaged in a ritual dance under an oak. The comparison with other relief figurative scenes where landscape element…
