Abstract:
The core of this paperis a reading of Robert Browning's “Clive” (1880); it attempts to account for the formalist demands of this generically complex and relentlessly ironic poetic text, while at the same time it construes the accomplishment of Browning's poetic language and form as intricate cultural critique. However, in order to better understand Browning's poem an additional discussion of its intertexts is required, the most important being Thomas Babington Macaulay's essay “On Clive” (1840).

Abstract:
This paper is dedicated to the achievements of Robert Engle and Clive Granger which allowed to overcome a serious crisis in macroeconomics and financial market analysis. The main concepts of cointegration theory and different estimation methods of cointegration equations are considered in the first part of the paper. The areas of application of cointegration theory and possible extensions are briefly described as well. The financial time series model with conditional heteroskedastisity is analyzed in the second part of the paper. The main prerequisites of the method suggested by R. Engle are formulated and its extensions and areas of application are defined.

Abstract In this essay I trace the role of history in the philosophy of art from the early twentieth century to the present, beginning with the rejection of history by formalists like Clive Bell. I then attempt to show how the arguments of people like Morris Weitz and Arthur Danto led to a re-appreciation of history by philosophers of art such as Richard Wollheim, Jerrold Levinson, Robert Stecker and others.

Abstract:
At the Peace of Paris in 1763 Britain reaped the rewards of a successful war overseas. Great gains were made in North America, die West Indies and West Africa. Two years later Robert Clive signed the treaty of Allahabad by which the Mughal emperor transferred the diwani and widi it effective possession of die huge province of Bengal to the East India Company. No one could doubt the scale of what had been acquired in so short a time in terms of land, people or resources. How these vast gains could be turned to account, by whom and with what consequences, aroused eager anticipation, a well as serious misgivings, as die British state and many private individuals tried to exploit the opportunities opened up by British military prowess. In so doing they revealed much about the strengdis and weaknesses of British overseas expansion in the eighteenth century.

Abstract:
Il saggio si propone di ricostruire l'azione politica di Thomas Saunders, funzionario della East India Company e governatore di Madras durante un periodo di cruciale importanza per le sorti della presenza britannica in India. Secondo l'autore, Saunders, generalmente sottovalutato dagli storici, fu in realtÀ un personaggio chiave nella guerra del Carnatico, in grado di opporsi con tenacia e prontezza ai progetti egemonici francesi, di cui colse la pericolositÀ. Privo di un ben strutturato piano di conquista e ancora per molti versi legato alla mentalitÀ di agente commerciale, Saunders puň essere considerato una figura di transizione tra il colonialismo mercantile e il colonialismo informale: ritenendo la strategia di supremazia da lui adottata dettata unicamente dalla contingenza del conflitto anglo-franco-indiano e pertanto da abbandonare alla fine delle ostilitÀ, il governatore di Madras non seppe spingersi laddove giunse Robert Clive, il noto conquistatore del Bengala.

Abstract:
Trees, as threshold beings, effectively blur the line between the real world and fantastical alternate worlds, and destabilise traditional binary classification systems that distinguish humanity, and Culture, from Nature. Though the presence of trees is often peripheral to the main narrative action, their representation is necessary within the fantasy trope. Their consistent inclusion within fantasy texts of the twentieth century demonstrates an enduring arboreal legacy that cannot be disregarded in its contemporary relevance, whether they are represented individually or in collective forests. The purpose of my dissertation is to conduct a study of various prominent fantasy texts of the twentieth century, including the fantasy works of J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, Robert Holdstock, Diana Wynne Jones, Natalie Babbitt, and J.K. Rowling. In scrutinising these texts, and drawing on insights offered by liminal, ecocritical, ecofeminist, mythological and psychological theorists, I identify the primary function of trees within fantasy narratives as liminal: what Victor Turner identifies as a ‘betwixt and between’ state (1991:95) where binaries are suspended in favour of embracing potentiality. This liminality is constituted by three central dimensions: the ecological, the mythological, and the psychological. Each dimension informs the relationship between the arboreal as grounded in reality, and represented in fantasy. Trees, as literary and cinematic arboreal totems are positioned within fantasy narratives in such a way as to emphasise an underlying call to bio-conservatorship, to enable a connection to a larger scope of cultural expectation, and to act as a means through which human self-awareness is developed.

Abstract:
This chapter first discusses the events leading up to and following the “Plassey Revolution” of 1757, which shifted the balance of power in Bengal heavily in favor of the East India Company (EIC). In the aftermath of Plassey, the Calcutta council and Robert Clive, the leader of EIC troops, sought to transform the EIC's newly won political and military advantages in Bengal into a durable supremacy. Acting as the de facto governor of the British settlement, Clive oversaw the fortification and militarization of Calcutta as well as the Company's upcountry trading stations. Clive governed the EIC's Bengal presidency for two years after Plassey. During that period, he not only transformed the Nawab into a financial and military dependent of the Company but also curbed French and Dutch power in northeastern India.

Abstract:
This chapter discusses how Robert Clive managed not only to undo Laurence Sulivan's supremacy at East India House but also to be returned to Bengal with extraordinary civilian and military powers. This dramatic reversal of fortune was not the result of Clive's fortitude but rather of the convergence of four major sociopolitical developments in late 1763 and early 1764. Taken together, these four developments—metropolitan, pan-imperial, and South Asian in scope—seemed to portend the unraveling of Britain's political order and imperial state. The Baron of Plassey emerged as the military guarantor of the British Empire in the face of the anarchic, destabilizing forces that threatened it on all sides.

Abstract:
Using colonial-era sources, Chapter Four examines Kanchi at the crucial moment when Indian art and geography was first being systematized, interpreted, and transmitted by Europeans. A popular narrative was established that characterized Kanchi as a city in decline – yet this narrative is belied by Colonial-era prints, drawings, and travelers’ accounts. While photographs show Kanchi’s Pallava temples in various states of ruination, these alternative sources tell a story of Kanchi as a flourishing urban center. The original sources include the collected manuscripts of Colin Mackenzie, the architectural writings of James Fergusson, the private diaries of Henrietta Clive (Robert Clive’s daughter-in-law), and the drawings and letters of the Russian aristocrat Alexis Soltykoff, who described Kanchi as a city of ‘infinite temples.’

Abstract:
Abstract In the summer of 1757, the young and aggressive Robert Clive defeated a major Moghul force at Plassey, near Calcutta, and in doing so made Great Britain the primary power in India. A century later that power received its most dangerous challenge, not from foreign aggression but from the men the British had trained to serve in the Indian Army. The century of British rule had been a mixed blessing to the Indian population. While no foreign domination is popular with the indigenous people, the British did bring security to the person on the street and a much fairer administration than had existed under the declining Moghul dynasty. British power was exercised through “John Company,” the British East India Company, which, with its own “private” army, had grown into the largest trading company in the world. It had originally operated with a security force raised locally but trained and commanded by British troops and, since the company was financed in large part through the British government, over time British units were stationed in India as well.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the ways in which Maurice in 1913 processed the legacy of the Aesthete Oscar Wilde’s imprisonment in 1895. Even though the only direct allusion to Wilde occurs in Maurice’s interview with Dr Barry, the presence of Wilde’s reputation emerges in the ‘aesthetic push’ at Cambridge. In principle, Maurice’s abandonment of Clive marks the moment when the narrative confirms that an aesthetic homosexuality proves unappealing. Instead, Maurice’s intimacy with Alec marks a turn toward a physically intense homosexual desire that takes its cues from Edward Carpenter’s thought. At the same time, the threat of blackmail that haunts the intimacy between Maurice and Alec also recalls the disclosures about Wilde’s involvement with homosexual extortionists. The chapter therefore reveals that the influential argument that Robert K. Martin ventured in 1983 – where he claims that the first half of Maurice focuses on a Platonic homosexuality, while the second half stresses a male same-sex passion derived from Carpenter – is not as clear-cut as he suggests. Forster’s concerted efforts to dis-identify with Wilde point to the considerable degree to which the Aesthete’s plight in 1895 continued to shape understandings of homosexuality through the period leading up to the First World War.

Abstract:
Abstract: The contents of an unpublished letter (FLC I1-17-5), sent to Le Corbusier from the Basses-Pyrénées during the development of the Villa Ocampo project (1928), is the key to understanding the Swiss-French master’s particular response to the site at the end of the 1920s. Countess Adela Cuevas de Vera, who negotiated the project from Anglet, revealed the Côte Basque as an attractive new market and claimed Le Corbusier's presence there. Furthermore, she reminded him of the prevailing regionalism and the strong cultural identity of the place, as well as the fact that Robert Mallet-Stevens, a great competitor of his, had already embarked there. Whatever the content of this letter awakened in Le Corbusier, led him to submit a very similar version of the third Villa Meyer project (1925) (designed for Paris) to be built in Buenos Aires. This paper re-evaluates the reasons behind a site exchange between two Southern cities on different sides of the Atlantic, studying the role of the negotiation site in the design process; and reassesses Le Corbusier’s critical attitude towards regionalism, mapping out his relationship with a French region in which he never intervened. Through primary source research, this paper also recognizes that in architecture, rivalry, pride and ambition can quite often be authentic triggers for action. Resumen: El contenido de una carta inédita (FLC I1-17-5), enviada a Le Corbusier desde los Bajos Pirineos durante el desarrollo del proyecto de la Villa Ocampo (1928), es la clave para entender la muy particular respuesta al lugar del maestro suizo-francés a finales de los años 20. La Condesa Adela Cuevas de Vera, que negoció el proyecto desde Anglet, presentó a Le Corbusier la Côte Basque como un atractivo mercado, al tiempo que reclamó allí su presencia. Le habló del regionalismo imperante y de la fuerte identidad cultural del lugar, recordándole que Robert Mallet-Stevens, un gran competidor suyo, había desembarcado ya allí. La reacción a esta carta llevó a Le Corbusier a entregar un proyecto muy similar a la tercera versión del proyecto de la Villa Meyer (1925) (proyectado para París) para ser construido en Buenos Aires. Este artículo reevalúa las razones que pueden existir tras el intercambio de lugar entre dos ciudades del Sur situadas a los dos lados del Atlántico, estudiando para ello el papel que el lugar de negociación juega en el desarrollo de un proyecto; y reexamina la actitud crítica de Le Corbusier hacia el regionalismo, mapeando su relación con una región francesa en la que nunca intervino. A través de la investigación de fuentes primarias, este artículo muestra también cómo la rivalidad, el orgullo y la ambición pueden asimismo ser auténticos desencadenantes para la acción durante el desarrollo de un proyecto.

Abstract:
Resumen: En 1966 Robert Venturi publica Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture. Este libro representa uno de los alegatos más severos contra las limitaciones de la arquitectura moderna. Concebido como un ensayo visual, mediante una colección de ejemplos de épocas y lugares muy heterogéneos, las tesis de Venturi denotan una fuerte animadversión hacia las posiciones funcionalistas de la ortodoxia moderna. De entre todas las obras que lo ilustran, Le Corbusier aparece paradójicamente como el arquitecto al que más se alude y la Villa Savoye, por sorpresa, como la obra de referencia. Frente a la lectura establecida y canónica de la arquitectura de Le Corbusier, el análisis de Venturi supone una mirada fresca y alternativa de sus posiciones teóricas. A través de sus estrategias basadas en la fenomenología de la complejidad y la contradicción, Venturi descubre la arquitectura tensa y vibrante de Le Corbusier que, sin renunciar nunca a sus convicciones modernas, tampoco sucumbió ante ellas. Abstract: In 1966 Robert Venturi publishes Complexity and Contradiction in Architecture. This book represents one of the most serious allegations against the limitations of the modern architecture. Conceived as a visual essay, with a collection of examples from different times and places, the text of Venturi denotes a strong hostility against the functionalist positions of the orthodox Modern architecture. Paradoxically, in the book of Venturi, Le Corbusier appears as the most mentioned architect and the Villa Savoye -by surprise- as the most quoted work. In opposition of the classical view of Le Corbusier’s work, the analysis of Venturi represents a new fresh look and alternative view of his theoretical positions. Through his multiple strategies based on the phenomenology of complexity and contradiction, Venturi discovered the intense and vibrant architecture of Le Corbusier who, without ever renouncing his modern convictions, he didn’t succumb to them.

Abstract:
Resumen: El escrito recoge la experiencia vital de Le Corbusier en su humilde barraca del Cap Martin, el lugar donde el arquitecto establece su particular pacto con la naturaleza, y finalmente con la vida. La cabaña se construye en 1952 como habitación anexa al chiringuito que regenta Robert Rebutato, fontanero en Niza, pescador, al que Le Corbusier conoce de sus anteriores estancias en la E 1027. En los años siguientes el arquitecto va apropiándose del lugar: L’Étoile de Mer, su terraza, el algarrobo, la barraca de obra. Es el Mediterráneo, pero también la amistad con el pescador, lo que le ligarán a este lugar hasta el día de su fallecimiento en las rocas. De esta relación son muestra varias pinturas murales, entre ellas la que retrata a los dos amigos “À l’Étoile de Mer règne l’amitié”. Este paraje es también objeto de proyectos edificatorios del arquitecto, entre ellos la serie Roq et Rob o las Unités de Vacances. En estas viviendas-taller pensaba establecerse Le Corbusier en sus estancias en esta costa, sin embargo tras la muerte de Yvonne en 1957, Le Corbusier opta por no llevar a cabo sus proyectos, y seguir alojándose en Le Cabanon, esa célula mínima de habitación, parasitada a L’Étoile de Mer. Decide no ocupar el territorio, dejarlo virgen, construir lo mínimo para mantener el máximo espacio libre. Varios planos dan fe de la permuta de propiedades entre Le Corbusier y Rebutato. A cambio de una gran cuña de terreno que incluye la cabaña del arquitecto, éste entrega las Unités de Camping a Robert. Se convierte en propietario de una extensión de rocas para no construir nada, mantener el paisaje intacto y así proteger su soledad. Abstract: The text reflects the life experience of Le Corbusier in his humble hut of Cap Martin, where he establishes its particular pact with the nature, that finally becomes a pact with his life. The cottage was built in 1952 as an attached room to the snack bar that runs Robert Rebutato, plumber in Nice, fisherman, who met Le Corbusier during his stays in the E 1027. In the following years the architect endorses the site: L'Étoile Mer, its terrace, the carob tree and the work shed. It is the Mediterranean, but also the friendship with the fisherman, which will bind him to this place, until the day of his death on the rocks. This relationship is shown in several murals, including the portraying of the two friends "À l'Étoile de Mer règne l'amitié". The architect works too on some projects in this place: Roq et Rob and Unités de Vacances series. In these last ones Le Corbusier found to stay during his visits to the coast, but after the death of Yvonne in 1957, he chooses not to carry out their projects, and keep staying at Le Cabanon, the minimal cell room, parasitized to L’Étoile de Mer. He decides not to occupy the territory, keeping virgin it, building the minimum to maintain the maximum empty. Some drawings attest to the exchange of properties between Le Corbusier and Rebutato. In exchange to a large wedge of land that includes the cabin, the architect deliveries the Unités de Camping to Robert. So he becomes owner of an extension of rocks where isn’t possible to build anything, in the way to keep the landscape intact and protect its loneliness.

Abstract:
Resumen: La construcción del espacio mediante la superposición de planos verticales paralelos y franjas espaciales fue empleada por Le Corbusier tanto en sus obras pictóricas como arquitectónicas, tal y como manifestaron Colin Rowe y Robert Slutzky, en 1955-1956, al descomponer y analizar la “transparencia fenoménica” de la Villa Stein en Garches, 1926, y del cuadro Nature morte à la pile d’assiettes, 1920, de Le Corbusier. Un sistema de estratificación espacial vertical mediante superficies opacas, derivado del cubismo, que genera una profundidad bidimensional donde la plástica expresa la plenitud de un volumen sin recurrir a la perspectiva. Una investigación sobre como Le Corbusier emplea la superposición de estratos verticales o de elementos autónomos y espaciados, es decir, de fragmentos de experiencias discontinuas en posiciones relativas, pero fuertemente vinculados entre sí para asegurar la coherencia estable de los resultados prefigurados, pre-determinados, pre-estabilizados. Un recurso donde el uso de relaciones formales directas, y el posicionamiento del objeto, es más importante que la representación del propio objeto. En base a lo cual, la presente comunicación pretende indagar sobre como ocasionar múltiples lecturas de esa nueva espacialidad plana –ampliando los puntos de vista multifocales y las partes independientes, pero manteniendo la unidad compositiva–; y sobre el paso de procesos de transmisión directa de relaciones formales a transformaciones ilegibles que provoquen nuevas emociones. Abstract: The construction of space by overlapping parallel vertical planes and space bands was used by Le Corbusier both in his paintings and architectural projects, just as stated Colin Rowe and Robert Slutzky, in 1955-1956, to break down and analyze the “transparency phenomenal” to the Villa Stein in Garches, 1926, and the painting Nature morte à la pile d'assiettes, 1920, by Le Corbusier. A vertical spatial layering system by opaque surfaces, derivative of cubism, which generates a two-dimensional depth, where the composition expresses the fullness of a volume without resorting to perspective. An investigation about how Le Corbusier employs overlapping vertical layers or autonomous and spaced elements, that is to say, fragments of discontinuous experiences in relative positions, but strongly linked together to ensure stable consistency of the results pre-figured, pre-certain, pre-stabilized. A resource where the use of direct formal relations, and the positioning of the object, is more important than the representation of the object itself. Based on which, the present communication aims to investigate about how to cause multiple readings from this new flat spatiality –increasing multifocal viewpoints and independent parts, while maintaining the compositional unit–; and about the passage from direct transmission processes of formal relations to illegible transformations that cause new emotions.
