Abstract:
Dalla tavola rotonda del 27 gennaio è emerso che lo "strumento" Internet è un affilato coltello: da una parte le tecnologie uccidono impietose chi non è pronto ad accoglierle e a difendersene, dall'altra possono rendere più efficace e dinamici l'archivistica, la biblioteconomia, la catalogazione - che rischierebbero la paralisi o la confusione. È stata sottolineata la difficoltà di trovare un punto di incontro tra un'area così tradizionale e oggettivamente piuttosto statica con la mobilità turbinosa e incontrollabile della rete. La rete fa paura perchè in essa è molto facile perdersi e restare con un pugno di mosche. I termini più ripetuti sono stati: controllo terminologico - le parole cambiano senso a seconda del contesto, figuriamoci in uno scenario ipertestuale animato da link, continui riferimenti, aggiornamenti e rivisitazioni! - qualità, autenticità dell'informazione - come riuscire a dare fiducia ad un'informazione che non riusciamo a "guardare in faccia"? - irreperibilità della fonte originaria.

Abstract:
La coincidenza delle ricorrenze – l’Università Ca’ Foscari compie 150 anni dalla fondazione e sono passati 100 anni dalla fine della Grande guerra – invita a ricordare la coraggiosa, allora ancora giovane, Scuola Superiore di Commercio, che, alla fine del primo conflitto, è costretta a contare i suoi allievi caduti. Dopo due decenni, nel 1943, il Regio Istituto di Economia e Commercio stabilisce di dedicare la corte minore del palazzo Giustinian dei Vescovi alla memoria di tutti gli studenti, i docenti e i dipendenti caduti nei conflitti che fino ad allora avevano insanguinato il secolo. Monumenti, memorie e lapidi sono, in senso figurato, ricomposti nella statua di Niobe, Mater Studiorum che piange la morte violenta dei propri allievi. La corte della Niobe è abitata dalla potente scultura di Napoleone Martinuzzi, suo fulcro visivo ed emotivo, e da tanti, tanti nomi. Il tentativo è stato quindi di cominciare a restituire non solo la storia di quello spazio ma anche delle esistenze e del pensiero di coloro i cui nomi hanno qui trovato dimora. Questi aspetti della memoria sono stati al centro del lavoro di molti e sottotraccia nel lavoro di tutti: di chi si è occupato di delineare un profilo esistenziale dei caduti, di chi ha studiato le ideologie e le politiche che hanno animato i periodi tribolati delle guerre e dei dopoguerra o ha analizzato i processi istituzionali e la mentalità in tempo di guerra, di chi ha indagato sull’assetto e le trasformazioni architettoniche della corte. Ma il problema del tempo passato, delle tracce che lascia e di come conservarle si è posto anche a chi ha compiuto ricerche sui documenti e a chi ha studiato le pietre del sacrario e ne ha avuto cura.

Abstract:
Analyses of horror cinema seldom focus on the genre’s intersections with comedy, perhaps because the dominant influence of psychoanalysis on horror has emphasized gender, sexuality, trauma, abandonment, and various aspects of the unconscious. Yet Hong Kong might well boast world cinema’s most successful engagement of the horror-comedy as a sustained genre. From the late 1970s through the early 1990s, the ghosts and animated corpses of Taoist folklore became invested with the martial arts comedy advanced by Jackie Chan and Sammo Hung, rendering supernatural bodies as clownish cyphers rather than the romantic entities of Enchanting Shadow or AChinese Ghost Story. If spirits represent an intermediary stage between life and death, so too does the stylized clown, whose death-defying feats and transgression of “normal” human limitations render our mortal fears absurd. Presenting superstition as a comedy of stubborn familiarity and reveling in the foolishness of a premodern past, the Hong Kong horror-comedy resists the ideology of the encroaching Mainland, which has often censored “backwards” depictions of Chinese folklore and fantasy. In addition to examining the phenomenology of Hong Kong’s horror-comedies, this chapter also considers how such films fit into overall theories of physical comedy, from Bergson to Koestler.

Eliot, George, and Juliette Atkinson. The Mill on the Floss. Edited by Gordon S. Haight. Oxford University Press, 2015. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/owc/9780198707530.001.0001.

Abstract:
Was her life to be always like this? - always bringing some new source of inward strife?' When the miller Mr Tulliver becomes entangled in lawsuits, he sets off a chain of events that will profoundly affect the lives of his family and bring into conflict his passionate daughter Maggie with her inflexible but adored brother Tom. As she grows older, Maggie's discovery of romantic love draws her once more into a struggle to reconcile familial and moral claims with her own desires. Strong-willed, compassionate, and intensely loyal, Maggie seeks personal happiness and inner peace but risks rejection and ostracism in her close-knit community. Opening with one of the most powerful fictional evocations of childhood, The Mill on the Floss (1860) vividly portrays both the 'oppressive narrowness' and the appeal of provincial England, the comedy as well as the tragedy of obscure lives. George Eliot's most autobiographical novel was also her most controversial, and has been the subject of animated debate ever since. This edition combines the definitive Clarendon text with a lively new introduction and notes.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the intertextual place and presence of Ozu Yasujiro in the 2004 comedy drama Dogs and Cats by the first-time female director Iguchi Nami. It considers how Ozu as well as the genre, the shomingeki (middle-class home drama) has frequently figured as a marker or signpost of a particular era of cinema, a sociopolitical juncture and/or an attitude to gender in Japan. Taking this intertextuality as a point of departure, the chapter explores how such a presence animates meaning in Iguchi’s film; it analyzes style and structure as a means of elucidating how this young filmmaker distinguishes both herself and the world of her characters through implicit comparison with Ozu. Moreover, it examines how its narrative—about two young women living together under fractious conditions—contributes to discourse on Japanese models of feminisuto filmmaking, the country’s specific sociocultural model of feminism.

Full text
Abstract:
This chapter examines selections from Maya Angelou's autobiographies, identifying late-twentieth-century legacy of the post-World War II anticolonial Black Left. On one hand, Angelou's autobiographies contest the historiographic erasure of African Americans' internationalist identifications in the Bandung era, especially as they were animated by Black women. On the other hand, Angelou contributes to this erasure by emphasizing personal triumph and individual identity formation over sociohistorical narrative. Indeed, Angelou's remarkable popularity and cultural capital come at the expense of the revolutionary politics shared with comrades who have been exiled, persecuted, or otherwise banished from public memory. The chapter then considers how her writings and career provide an avenue for reclaiming Black feminism's postwar internationalist routes.

Abstract:
This chapter examines the literature on state campaigns and elections. Throughout the chapter the authors focus on a central question that frequently animates the study of campaigns and elections in the American states: do political institutions enhance or stymie voter turnout and electoral competition? They begin by considering studies that examine how electoral laws in general may affect voter turnout, electoral competition, and party and candidate strategies. They then assess whether more stringent campaign contribution limits and clean election laws might provide a greater incentive for potential candidates to challenge incumbents. In turn, they explore how primary systems, redistricting, term limits, and direct democracy may affect competition and turnout in the American states. They conclude with a discussion about lingering concerns over endogeneity when it comes to measuring the effect of political institutions on electoral competition and outcomes.

Full text
Abstract:
Affective Materialities reads modernist literature for the ways in which bodies come to matter physically, socially, and juridically using two recent turns in literary studies—one to affect studies and the other to ecocriticism. Each chapter in the collection delves into a multifold body, investigating how body-forms come to matter. Chapters reveal what the modernist body represents in a way that also addresses the most urgent contemporary concerns of modernity today. In other words, chapters address how a body signifies, becomes legible, writes, is written, touches, constitutes, merges, and encounters through various representations in a peculiarly modernist fashion. In turn, the collection sets the stakes for how bodies merge with their surroundings or are re-created by them, into an amalgam of self and place, as ethical concern for social justice. We aim to address the way the body and animate matter become a lens for grasping the fluidities of race, gender, sexuality, anthropocentrism, individualism, and ultimately, the promise and limits of creativity itself.

Abstract:
This book is a study of solo performance in the UK and western Europe since the turn of millennium that explores the contentious relationship between identity, individuality and the demands of neoliberalism. With case studies drawn from across theatre, cabaret, comedy and live art – and featuring artists, playwrights and performers as varied as La Ribot, David Hoyle, Neil Bartlett, Bridget Christie and Tanja Ostojić – it provides an essential account of the diverse practices which characterize contemporary solo performance, and their significance to contemporary debates concerning subjectivity, equality and social participation. Beginning in a study of the arts festivals which characterize the economies in which solo performance is made, each chapter animates a different cultural trope – including the martyr, the killjoy, the misfit and the stranger – to explore the significance of ‘exceptional’ subjects whose uncertain social status challenges assumed notions of communal sociability. These figures invite us to re-examine theatre’s attachment to singular lives and experiences, as well as the evolving role of autobiographical performance and the explicit body in negotiating the relationship between the personal and the political. Informed by the work of scholars including Sara Ahmed, Zygmunt Bauman and Giorgio Agamben, this interdisciplinary text offers an incisive analysis of the cultural significance of solo performance for students and scholars across the fields of theatre and performance studies, sociology, gender studies and political philosophy.

Devji, Faisal. Terrorist in Search of Humanity. Oxford University Press, 2020. http://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780190076801.001.0001.

Full text
Abstract:
A global society has come into being, but possesses as yet no political institutions of its own. In his book, Faisal Devji argues that new forms of militancy, like that of Al Qaeda, achieve meaning in this institutional vacuum, while representing in their various ways the search for a global politics. From environmentalism to pacifism and beyond, such a politics can only be one that takes humanity itself as its object, hence militant practices are informed by the same search that animates humanitarianism, which from human rights to humanitarian intervention has become the global aim and signature of all contemporary politics. This is the search for humanity as an agent and not simply the victim of history. To the militant, victimized Muslims represent not their religion so much as humanity itself, and terrorism the effort to turn this humanity into an historical actor – since it is after all the globe’s only possible actor. For environmentalists and pacifists as much as for our holy warriors, a global humanity has in this way replaced the international proletariat as the ‘Sleeping Beauty’ of history.

Full text
Abstract:
The spatial turn in the humanities has fuelled new ways of thinking about landscape as a lived environment which is radically affected by human hands and human minds, and which radically affects human experience. At the same time, scholars of Greek myth have become more sensitive to the contextual dynamics which animate the mythic tradition, having come to see storytelling as an activity which is both precisely situated in, and contingent on, its environment. This volume, which derives in part from the series of Bristol International Myth Conferences, brings together 15 chapters on the spatiality of Greek myth and its interrelationships with the landscapes of the Mediterranean. It displays the myriad ways in which Greek storytelling shaped, and was shaped by, its environment. The chapters display diverse approaches and introduce a wide range of material, taking in Greek poetic, geographical, mythographical, and historiographical texts, and archaeological and visual sources. Chronologically, they cover the full scope of Greek antiquity from the archaic period to the imperial period; geographically, they incorporate discussions of landscapes in mainland Greece, Magna Graecia, and Asia Minor.

Frederiksen, Martin Demant, and Ida Harboe Knudsen, eds. Modern Folk Devils: Contemporary Constructions of Evil. Helsinki University Press, 2021. http://dx.doi.org/10.33134/hup-13.

Full text
Abstract:
The devilish has long been integral to myths, legends, and folklore, firmly located in the relationships between good and evil, and selves and others. But how are ideas of evil constructed in current times and framed by contemporary social discourses? Modern Folk Devils builds on and works with Stanley Cohen’s theory on folk devils and moral panics to discuss the constructions of evil. The authors present an array of case-studies that illustrate how the notion of folk devils nowadays comes into play and animates ideas of otherness and evil throughout the world.Examining current fears and perceived threats, this volume investigates and analyzes how and why these devils are constructed. The chapters discuss how the devilish may take on many different forms: sometimes they exist only as a potential threat, other times they are a single individual or phenomenon or a visible group, such as refugees, technocrats, Roma, hipsters, LGBT groups, and rightwing politicians. Folk devils themselves are also given a voice to offer an essential complementary perspective on how panics become exaggerated, facts distorted, and problems acutely angled. Bringing together researchers from anthropology, sociology, political studies, ethnology, and criminology, the contributions examine cases from across the world spanning from Europe to Asia and Oceania.

En 2018, la Universidad de La Sabana y la empresa ArthroFood aunaron esfuerzos para estructurar el proyecto de investigación Cría de grillos para la alimentación humana. Fomento del biocomercio en acompañamiento de mujeres rurales en el municipio de La Mesa, Cundinamarca. ArthroFood, empresa cuyo propósito es la cría de insectos para el consumo humano, ha visto la oportunidad de aportar en el sector industrial de la alimentación a través de una alternativa más sostenible: cría de grillos en condiciones de invernadero. Aunque en varias partes del mundo los insectos han jugado un papel importante en la nutrición humana, como ocurre en Colombia con las hormigas culonas y el mojojoy (larva de un escarabajo, propio de la región amazónica colombiana) -entre los más reconocidos-, la sistematización y estandarización del proceso de cría de estos animales es novedoso. La producción animal para alimentar al mundo se basa, pero no de manera exclusiva, en animales como la res, el cerdo y el pollo. Para el año 2020, en Colombia se estimó que una persona come al año aproximadamente 10,8 kg de carne de cerdo, 34,2 kg de carne de pollo, 7,7 kg de pescado y 17,1 kg de carne de res (Fedegán, 2020). En lo ambiental, mantener esta producción es riesgoso si se quiere mitigar los efectos del cambio climático. Estudios advierten la necesidad de disminuir la producción de carnes rojas en un 90 %, no solo por la cantidad de gases invernadero que causa su producción de forma extensiva, sino también por el alto gasto de agua que la ganadería provoca. Por esto, la domesticación de los insectos puede ser una gran iniciativa para mejorar las condiciones ambientales en el mundo, así como aporte nutricional para poblaciones que padecen de hambre.

Abstract:
John Wesley founded Methodism as an evangelical renewal movement within the Church of England. That structure encouraged both establishment impulses and Dissenting movements within Methodism in the North American context. In Canada, British missionaries planted a moderate, respectable form of Methodism, comfortable with the establishment. In Ontario, however, Methodism drew from a more democratized, enthusiastic revivalism that set itself apart from the establishment. After a couple of generations, however, these poorer outsiders had moved into the middle class, and Canadian Methodism grew into the largest denomination, with a sense of duty to nurture the social order. Methodism in the United States, however, embodied a paradox representative of a nation founded in a self-conscious act of Dissent against an existing British system. Methodism came to embrace the American cultural centre while simultaneously generating Dissenting movements. After the American Revolution, ordinary Americans challenged deference, hierarchy, patronage, patriarchy, and religious establishments. Methodism adopted this stance in the religious sphere, growing as an enthusiastic, anti-elitist evangelistic campaign that validated the spiritual experiences of ordinary people. Eventually, Methodists began moving towards middle-class respectability and the cultural establishment, particularly in the largest Methodist denomination, the Methodist Episcopal Church (MEC). However, democratized impulses of Dissent kept re-emerging to animate new movements and denominations. Republican Methodists and the Methodist Protestant Church formed in the early republic to protest the hierarchical structures of the MEC. African Americans created the African Methodist Episcopal Church and African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church in response to racism in the MEC. The Wesleyan Methodist Church and the Free Methodists emerged in protest against both slavery and hierarchy. The issue of slavery divided the MEC into northern and southern denominations. The split reflected a battle over which religious vision of slavery would be adopted by the cultural establishment. The denominations remained divided after the Civil War, but neither could gain support among newly freed blacks in the South. Freed from a racialized religious establishment embedded in slavery, former slaves flocked to independent black Methodist and Baptist churches. In the late nineteenth century, Methodism spawned another major evangelical Dissenting movement, the Holiness movement. Although they began with an effort to strengthen Wesleyan practices of sanctification within Methodism, Holiness advocates soon became convinced that most Methodists would not abandon what they viewed as complacency, ostentation, and worldliness. Eventually, Holiness critiques led to conflicts with Methodist officials, and ‘come-outer’ groups forged a score of new Holiness denominations, including the Church of God (Anderson), the Christian Missionary Alliance, and the Church of the Nazarene. Holiness zeal for evangelism and sanctification also spread through the missionary movement, forming networks that would give birth to another powerful, fragmented, democratized movement of world Christianity, Pentecostalism.
