Memory and religious experience in the Greco-Roman world
2013
The concepts of memory and experience have stimulated interest in a wide range of recent cultural studies. In the history of scholarship on religion in Mediterranean antiquity, scholars have focused on the emotional dimension of both terms by employing the concepts of ‚Christianity‘ and its derivative, ‚oriental religion‘. Only recently analyses in this field started focusing on interaction and individual experience. Research initiatives at Palermo and Erfurt have taken up this lead and brought together a group of scholars testing such approaches for new perspectives on the history of religion in the Greek and Roman world. This volume reviews the cognitive and emotional dimensions of such e…

Ancient Artistic Motifs on Italian Memorials from the Unity to the Aftermath of World War I
2022
In the decades subsequent to the unification of the Kingdom of Italy, achieved in 1861 with the proclamation of Vittorio Emanuele II as the king of the new State, the Italian peninsula became covered with many commemorative monuments. These were devoted, first of all, to honour the men who played a leading role in the heroic deeds of the Risorgimento but also to remember the places where the major historical events occurred. Afterwards as well, the Italian State went on erecting memorials, in order to celebrate other facts and casualties, as it happened on the occasion of the unsuccessful colonial attempts in the African land and then, above all, after the World War I. Many of these commemo…
L'Orchestra di Auschwitz. Inchiesta su Alma Rosé
2023
Il libro è un'inchiesta sulla vita e il tempo di Alma Rosé (1906-1944), nipote di Gustav Mahler, debuttante e ragazza alla moda fra gli anni Venti e Trenta del secolo scorso, violinista il cui talento matura – paradossalmente – mentre l’ombra del nazismo si dispiega sull’Europa e infine direttrice dell’orchestra di Auschwitz. in un’epoca in cui la carriera del direttore d’orchestra era declinata soltanto al maschile. Giunta ad Auschwitz nell’estate 1943 e assegnata dapprima al Block degli esperimenti medici, Alma riuscì in breve tempo a diventare – nel piccolo mondo terribile del Lager – una specie di celebrità: ed è in quelle tenebre, d’altronde, che si svolge l’atto finale del dramma, oss…
I tamburi a cornice in Sicilia
2015
Le prime attestazioni della presenza del tamburo a cornice in Sicilia risalgono al V secolo a.C. Lo strumento è poi documentato fino ai giorni nostri attraverso raffigu¬razioni, documenti d’archivio, resoconti di viaggiatori stranieri, testi di interesse folklorico e, piuttosto ampiamente, dalla ricerca etnomusicologica moderna, per mezzo di audio-registrazioni e videofilmati. Morfologia, tecniche esecutive, repertori, decorazioni, contesto d’uso dei tamburelli in Sicilia si inscrivono nel più ampio quadro dell’area italiana (centro-meridionale) e mediterranea, ma con alcune specificità, soprattutto nelle tecniche esecutive. Queste, sebbene affini a quelle impiegate in altre regioni italian…
