Abstract:
f on a winter's night a traveler is considered one of the greatest novels by Italian writer Italo Calvino. Published in 1979, this literary work, which belongs to the postmodernist narrative style in the form of a frame story, tells about a reader trying to read a book with the same title from beginning to end. Much of the story’s content was written in the second-person’s narration, implying that “you” (the Reader) are the protagonist of the novel. Embedded inside are ten short stories (the loose ends of different novels) read by the main character, which causes the book to constantly switch between settings, narrators, and styles. If on a Winter’s Night a Traveler is truly a perfect illustration for the literary style characterized by metafiction and postmodernism. The novel is a conscious textual play with various techniques employed such as authorial role limitation, reader involvement in the plot line, open structure, non-linearity, fragmentation, multiplicity, and intertextuality. By effectively using these devices, Calvino deconstructs the traditional novel form and creates a new structure which shows a parallel between the processes of writing and reading a text. Calvino acts as the supreme game-master taking control of both the characters and the real players, who have been pushed into this game-like novel. This article focuses on analyzing the charactericstics of metafiction, the Droste effect and deconstruction in Calvino’s novel If on a winter's night a traveler, thereby helping to grasp his playful language and his narrative techniques as well as to discover his metafictional discourse.

Abstract:
Abstract The endangered Indiana bat (Myotis sodalis) congregates in large hibernation groups in winter and travels after spring emergence to form summer maternity colonies, but information on migration behavior in this species remains limited to mostly band recovery observations. We tracked female Indiana bats in spring migration toward summer grounds using aerial radiotelemetry. Adult female Indiana bats were radiotagged in spring from 2009 through 2017, with 15 individuals successfully tracked to summer grounds and an additional 11 bats located in summer grounds via aerial telemetry after migration was complete. This resulted in the location of 17 previously unknown summer grounds for female Indiana bats, including adding Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi to the summer maternity range. Two of the colonies identified in this study were south of the previously known southernmost colony in Tennessee, expanding the summer maternity range for the species by 178 km. Time-stamped location fixes along the migration path provided information about nightly and overall distances traveled, duration of travel, migration speed, and weather-related influences on bat behavior. Bats traveled 164.6 ± 26.2 km (± SE) on average from hibernacula to summer grounds and were migrating for an average of 7.3 ± 1.4 calendar nights. Bats alternated between foraging and traveling throughout each night of their migration route. Nightly migration rate was 9.9 ± 0.8 km/h and bats were active on the landscape for an average of 6.1 ± 0.4 h/night. Lower nighttime temperatures and lower barometric pressure correlated with use of layover areas during a migration night. Understanding bat behavior during migration can provide pertinent information for land managers to consider in efforts to conserve potential migration corridors, foraging areas, and roosting habitats of species in decline.

Abstract:
Escrito pelo ficcionista e ensaísta italiano Italo Calvino, e publicado pela Einaudi em 1979, Se um viajante numa noite de inverno é uma das mais significativas obras metaficcionais da literatura ocidental, na medida em que seu autor desvela os mecanismos da narração, desencadeando uma reflexão sobre a prática da escritura e da leitura, bem como sobre as relações entre o escritor, o texto e o leitor dentro da própria obra literária. Assim, esta dissertação busca demonstrar como o romance Se um viajante numa noite de inverno opera sobre o horizonte de expectativas do Leitor – o protagonista do romance, tomando como referenciais teóricos a Hermenêutica filosófica, as Estéticas da recepção e do efeito, bem como as concepções provenientes dos estudos de região e regionalidade. São observados, nesse sentido, conceitos e categorias intrinsecamente associados ao horizonte de expectativas do Leitor, tais como experiência hermenêutica, experiência estética, lugares vazios, região e regionalidade.<br>Submitted by Ana Guimarães Pereira (agpereir@ucs.br) on 2014-12-05T12:41:21Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Bruno Brizotto.pdf: 1308074 bytes, checksum: 6071d7adf66dcb4a6da00c3634e378f4 (MD5)<br>Made available in DSpace on 2014-12-05T12:41:21Z (GMT).

Para o escritor “a relação de quem narra com a matéria narrada e com o leitor” é a “problemática mais árdua da narrativa contemporânea” (CALVINO, 2009, p. 199). Como fundamentação teórica para esta temática utilizamos alguns textos fomentadores destas discussões: Roger Chartier (1998) e seu estudo sobre autor e editor, Compagnon sobre estilo, autor e leitor (2001), Michel Foucault (2009) sobre o que é um autor, a “morte do autor” prenunciada por Roland Barthes (2004), Umberto Eco (1994) e a questão do leitor, entre outros. A respeito da categoria “autor”, entendemos ser este uma figura que Umberto Eco renomeou em “autor-modelo”, “autor-empírico”, entendemos que a “voz narrativa” criada por Italo Calvino no romance e as estratégias narrativas utilizadas pelo escritor ecoam este viés. Destas duas categorias, “autor” e “voz narrativa”, relacionamos à teoria que fala a respeito de “estilo”, reconhecendo as estratégias de Italo Calvino como um “tom” que dificilmente poderíamos desvincular da figura histórica do autor ao compararmos com seu experimentalismo em outros livros como Cidades Invisíveis (CALVINO, 2003). Este estudo nos possibilitou compreender, também, que o “Editor” faz parte da autoria no sentido de que a Casa Editorial é o local em que são aceitos para publicação textos que passam pelo crivo de estéticas estabelecidas por um Editor que circunscreve, delimita e corrige o que será publicado. Por último, estudar a morte do autor anuncia que o Leitor deve ser enfatizado em sua atividade de leitura. A conclusão a que chegamos é que em Se um viajante numa noite de inverno Italo Calvino criou um romance armadilha, tanto do leitor-médio, como dos demais leitores.<br>This paper is about our reading of If on a traveler on a winter’s night, book was wrote by Italo Calvino (1979), and the aim is to analyze three characters from the book: the editor, the author and the reader, as well as we study the book “narrative voice”. To the writer “a relação de quem narra com a matéria narrada e com o leitor” is the “problemática mais árdua da narrativa contemporânea” (CALVINO, 2009, p. 199). This discussions in this text is based on Roger Chartier about author and editor (1998), Antoine Compagnon (2001) about author, reader and style, the “author’s dead” by Roland Barthes (2004), Michel Foucault and what is an author? (2009), Umberto Eco (1994) and the reader, among others. We understand the author is a figure divided by Umberto Eco in autor-modelo and autor-empírico and the narrative strategies used by the writer talks with these categories – and these categories are very hard to separate on historical author figure. The Editor is part of the authorship in the sense that the Editorial House is the place where texts that pass through the aesthetic list established by an Editor are accepted for publication. Studying the death of the author announces that the reader should be emphasized in his reading activity. The conclusion we reach is that in If a traveler on a winter's night Italo Calvino created a trappings romance, be it the average reader or the other readers.

Abstract:
碩士<br>中國文化大學<br>英國語文學研究所<br>87<br>This thesis aims at refuting the "Exhaustion of Literature" by rendering Italo Calvino's hypertexual skill in If on a Winter's Night, A traveler. The Reader-Response-Criticism and Roland Barthes' three critical essays (From Work to Text / The Death of the Author / The Pleasure of the Text) are also applied here for analysis. The traditional author-text-reader triangle sustains as fixative structure. I intend to subvert the 1) reader-text, 2) text-author, and 3) author-reader relationship in order to illustrate how the "Reader" in If escapes from the literary labyrinth mapped by author. The protagonist eventually carries a Barthes-like playful attitude to get involved with generating the narrative and producing the meaning. With Proceeding the dialogue with the hypertext, he can therefore link with the intertexual universe. The introduction firstly points out the modern writers' fear towards "entropy" - the insufficiency of language and the inevitable use-up of writing materials. After briefly identifying the theories of Hypertext and the Reader-Response-Criticism, I further delineate ho they interweave in Barthes' critical essays referred above. The analysis that subverts author-text-reader relationship hereupon commences. In the second chapter, the reader-text problematics is re-examined. The Reader sets off to pursue the rest often embedded novels. He is forced to adjust his identify in the journey while repeated encountering interrupted, fragmentary and blank pages. In fact, he must forsake the myth of textual totality and learn that the arbitrary link between sing and signifier no longer exists. The meaning which resembles the readerly expectation is ever differed and deferred. Only when realizing what mentioned above can the Reader apply the hypertexual mode to randomly link the fragmentary texts as well as to select experience his own reading path. The voyeuristic desire engages we actual readers with the pursuit of the Implied Reader to interact with If. In stead of being a passive meaning recipient, a reader turns to actively play the text. In the third chapter, the text-author problematics is re-examined. The author has been regared as the father of his creation, namely, he gives birth to the text and endows it with meaning. In modern times, the "copyright" further consolidates the authorship. Nevertheless, the text began to deviate its author's intention since Plato accused it of "patricide". Barthes even calimed that "the birth of the reader must be at the cost of the death of the Author". He identifies writing as an intransitive ver. Calvino attempts to dissolve himself in If so that the author turns to be the ghost-voice behind the text. The effor made on Authenticity/Apocrypha becomes futile due to the death of Author. In the fourth chapter, the author-reader dynamics is re-examined. In If, the fictitious author willfully decides the plot and the Reader's fate. However, the ten novels that the Other Reader evokes to exist demonstrate a reader's ultimate right to determine the story. Once the Reader regains his autonomy, the power transit from the origin of the text [Author] to the end [Reader]. He can conclude the ending for the major text in his pursuit - the Other Reader. We finally realize that the Reader is the traveler who carries out the intrigue on a winter's night and ends his journey as soon as he regains the reader's autonomy, we actual readers invest part of ourselves on the narrating "I" to engage with the story. The "I" stands as the lexia for us to enter/exit the text and to proceed the dialogue with it. In that way, the enclosed work turns to be an open text that subverts the traditional isolated reading process. Via the dialogic hypertext, the possibility of communication hence emerges. Calvino coined the term "hypernovel" to simulate how to resemble texts with network to link with the universe. The openness of hypertext not only re-defines the author-text-reader relationship but also activates the reader to link fragments of narrative. The labyrinth transforms into the dynamic laboratory in which literature will never reach its exhaustion.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立中正大學<br>外國語文學系<br>85<br>Realities and fantasies take form by means of writing, whereas gaps lying in between are fulfilled by the process of reading. The first chapter discusses the purpose of the novel, the essence of a novel the features that an ideal novel should contain from Calvino's point of view. The second chapter mainly focuses on the relationship between writing and reading in If on a winter's night traveler. It focuses on how Calvino develops the novel by knitting the two actions into one: that is, reading becomes a form of writing,to the third chapter then extends the discussion to the relationship of the writer and reader. Voices of the author himself, the implied reader, the male protagonist, Reader, and various other readers appear in the embedded novels in addition to the frame story. As Calvino says, in this kind of net-like novel, his aim is to give the essence of what a novel is by providing it in concentrated form, in different beginnings; each beginning develops in very different ways from a common core, and each acts within a framework that both determines and is determined by that which which explains the relationship between reading and writing.

Abstract:
碩士<br>國立中興大學<br>外國語文學系<br>88<br>Based upon the theoretical frame-work of the feminism, this thesis attempts to illuminate the male manipulation in Italo Calvino''s If on a Winter''s night a traveler. To elucidate the patriarchal myth of gender, this thesis will adopt mainly the critiques made by Kate Millett and Simone de Beauvoir to provide a theoretical background for the analysis of the novel. In the first chapter of this thesis, I mean to explore the construction of gender difference by analyzing the culture in the representation and transformation of "masculinity" and "femininity." With a view to understanding more of the gender difference, I will at first give a summary of the two terms, "gender" and "sex." And then, I would like to discuss the stereotyped portraits and representations of women characters affected by the cultural concept of gender difference in literature. I will also make use of Images of Women Criticism as a basis to analyze the gender differences and, in particular, the stereotyped images of women in fictions by male authors. In If on a winter''s night a traveler, Calvino explores the complex relationships between men and men, women and women, and men and women. In the second chapter, the relationships of the two main female characters, Ludmilla and Lotaria, with the other main male protagonists will be explored in particular. I will focus on the stereotyped depictions and portraits of the female protagonists in both the embedded story and the frame one, and examine the different positions occupied by men and women in discourse. I purpose to analyze the ways in which women are stereotyped, culturally dominated, and sexually objectified respectively. The third chapter then extends the discussion to the textual relationship of the repressive male and the repressed female. Men perform their power through the reiterative sexual as well as textual domination over women. Through this process of reiteration in sex and in text, women have no choice but to conform to the patriarchal norms in this novel. This thesis is expected to present a new direction for reading and understanding Calvino''s fiction and to offer some possible contributions to the study of sexuality and textuality between men and women in the novel, If on a winter''s night a traveler.

Full text
Abstract:
This report examines the ways in which Cesare Pavese and Italo Calvino use images of the foreign woman as other. Specifically, both authors inscribe foreign territories onto the bodies of their female characters in order to confront complex cultural differences. Italy is the site of this gendered inscription in Pavese’s Il carcere, while various real and imagined foreign lands are made female in Calvino’s Se una notte d’inverno un viaggiatore and Le città invisibili. In Pavese’s novella, the satyr-like Concia and the overly maternal Elena are embodiments of Southern and Northern Italy, respectively, and the failure of the protagonist to form a relationship with either woman represents his failure to assimilate into the mezzogiorno and his simultaneous rejection of northern society. In Calvino’s two works, female characters and attributes are consciously used to embody various foreign countries so that the protagonists may grasp the unknown, both physically and psychologically. By linking woman and terrain, Pavese and Calvino attempt to dominate distant lands, which are otherwise enigmatic and incomprehensible, in the typical Orientalist fashion.<br>text

Abstract:
Cavarero’s ethic of inclination responds to a postural geometric imaginary in the philosophical tradition that is irrefutably gendered. Opening with a reflection on the character of Irina in Italo Calvino’s ‘If, on a winter’s night, a traveller’ she draws out the inclined, sinuous, curving figures of the female common to literary and philosophical texts, and contrasts them to the straight, upright, correct and erect, male figure. Tracing these stereotypes back to Ancient Greek etymology, she charts its progress through the work of Plato, Kant, and Proudhon. From the devalued imagery of the female body as maternal, Cavarero begins her subversion of the philosophical tradition. Following Arendt’s valorisation of the natal scene, Cavarero emphasises the distinctive role of the inclined mother as care giver. This image of inclined motherhood is to form the basis then, of Cavarero’s ethic of inclination—an altruistic ethic that upends the ‘imagined wholeness’ of the dominant liberal model of the independent, self-sufficient male, individual.

Abstract:
The article talks about my own travel experience, which happened last year in the winter holidays in advent time. My boyfriend and I visited Salzburg with a Tourist Agency for the first time. It was a one-day trip by bus. It was a pleasant experience. We had a great time there regardless of the low temperature. We saw many sights and interesting points and learnt something new about Salzburg. We got to experience the city in the night-time and the Christmas market happening as well. What we noticed about this trip is that Salzburg was not so decorated in advent time when comparing it with Vienna, which was our previous trip. We found out through the whole time that there was enormous crowd of people present. Because of the crowd we had to supply our own food and drinks, because restaurants were all full. We had to keep an eye on our personal items as well.Despite this, I would recommend Salzburg because of soaking up the Christmas atmosphere and experiencing the city'senergy.

Abstract:
The purpose of this chapter is to list the more common accepted methods used in short-term climate prediction, explain how they are designed, how they are supposed to work, what level of skill can be expected and the references to find more about them. The emphasis is on methodology but aspects of verification and cross-validation will be mentioned as well. Most methods will be accompanied by an example. We will also mention some of the less common methods, but with less detail. We even list some methods that are not used, to delineate which are acceptable and which are not. Sections 8.1–8.6 and 8.8 are easy to read, but Sections 8.7 and 8.9 are more difficult. It will become clear by the end of the climatology section (8.1), that only the departure from climatology, the so-called anomalies, are considered worthy forecast targets. The climatology itself, including such empirically established facts as “days are warmer than nights”, and “winters are colder than summer”, is considered too obvious to be a forecast target. This is not to say that a quantitative explanation of the Earth’s climate, including daily and annual cycle, is easy. But in professionally honest verification no points are given for forecasting a correct climatology. This chapter is thus about forecasting aspects of the geophysical system that are not so obvious and more difficult. The daily and annual cycle are periodic variations controlled by external forcings such as the solar heating. Implicit in identifying a periodic phenomenon as such is that the forecast of the phenomenon is easy out to infinity. This explains a widespread search for “cycles” in early meteorological research, but very little has been found other than the obvious daily and annual cycles. By removing a climatology that accounts for daily and annual variations we in effect remove the known easy periodic part of the system. In the absence of any other information climatology is the best information available. As many travelers can attest, somebody visiting an unfamiliar location 6 months from now is well served by inspecting climatological tables.
