Abstract:
This work intends to illustrate the methods of using the authentic literary text in the process of spreading Italian, especially in Baghdad where there is a strong propensity to learn the Italian language. The concept of the language that arises from literature is an idea closely linked to the mentality of the Arab learner towards Italian culture: an idea also created by the first Arabisations of literary texts in the early years of the previous century. The research was carried out in Baghdad by two researchers, an Italianist from Baghdad and an Italian mother language linguist, with the aim of bringing together the two sectors in favor of the diffusion of the Italian language. The study also aims to clarify the models from Italian literature most welcomed by those who study Italian in Iraq. In addition to making clear the conceptual phases of what is meant by a literary text in the process of dissemination of a language, and how to expand the literary canon by referring to the corpus of the language of the different genres of Italian literature. Il presente lavoro intende illustrare le modalità d’impiego del testo letterario autentico nel processo di diffusione dell’italiano, soprattutto a Baghdad dove si sta assistendo ad una forte propensione all’apprendimento della lingua italiana. Il concetto della lingua che nasce dalla letteratura è un’idea molto legata alla mentalità dell’apprendente arabo nei confronti della cultura italiana: idea creata anche dalle prime arabizzazioni dei testi letterari ai primi anni del secolo precedente. La ricerca è stata eseguita a Baghdad da due ricercatori, un italianista di Baghdad ed un linguista italiano, allo scopo di riunire i due settori a favore della diffusione della lingua italiana. Lo studio vorrà anche chiarire i modelli dalla letteratura italiana più accolti da chi studia l’italiano in Iraq. Oltre a rendere evidenti le fasi concettuali di che cosa si intende per testo letterario nella disseminazione di una lingua, e come ampliare il canone letterario facendo riferimento al corpus del linguaggio dei diversi generi della letteratura italiana.

Aim. To identify the importance of Italian culture for Pushkin’s personality.Methodology. The material of the article was the entire corpus of Pushkin’s literary heritage – his lyrics, poems, dramatic works, autobiographical prose and letters. The research is based on the continuous sampling method, biographical, cultural-historical, comparative-historical, as well as historical-functional approaches that allow us to holistically present the features of Pushkin’s “Italian text”.Results. The article reveals the substantive aspects of Pushkin’s “Italian text”, which are associated with the concepts of “beauty”, “freedom”, “Italian opera”. The degree of Pushkin’s knowledge of the Italian language is systematically presented, the details of his acquaintance with Italian culture are revealed. The hypothesis is put forward that Pushkin outlines the ways of development of Russian literature by analogy with the literature of Italy. Proposals on the thematic division of Pushkin’s “Italian locus text” are formulated.Research implications. The theoretical significance of the study is related to the systematic representation of the Italian theme in Pushkin’s work and the in-depth development of the problem of “locus text” in Russian literature

Abstract:
Resumen: La Ley italiana núm. 47 de 2017, sobre disposiciones en materia de medidas de protección de menores extranjeros no acompañados, constituye el primer texto normativo que contempla de manera unificada la tutela de menas en la UE. Por un lado, esta ley establece un procedimiento multidisciplinar de identificación del menor y de determinación de la minoría de edad (art. 5). Por otro, destaca la figura del «tutor voluntario», institución protectora de los MENAs que llegan al territorio italiano (art. 11). Sin embar­go, la falta de coordinación entre los estados miembros amenaza la eficacia práctica de estas previsiones normativas, cuya fuerza vinculante se queda ceñida al territorio italiano. Se plantea, entonces, la necesidad de armonizar las diferentes prácticas estatales a través de una intervención legislativa europea.Palabras clave: MENAs, identificación, tutor voluntario, Italia, Unión Europea.Abstract: The Italian Law n. 47 of 2017 on dispositions upon protection measures of foreign unaccompanied minors, represents the first normative text, which contemplates, in a uniform way, the protection of unaccompanied minors in the EU. On one side, it establishes a multidisciplinary procee­ding for the identification of the minor and for the determination of his/her minor age (art. 5). On the other, it stand out the legal figure of a «volunteer guardian», institution that protect unaccompanied minors who arrive at the Italian territory (art. 11). However, the lack of coordination among Member States threats the practice efficacy of those legal provisions, which coercive force is confined through the Italian territory. We discuss upon the need of harmonizing the different states’ practices through a legislative intervention of the EU.Keywords: Unaccompanied foreign minors, identification, volunteer guardian, harmonisation, Italy, European Union.

Abstract Luigi Bonanate’s book “Costituzione italiana: articolo 11” analyses Article 11 of the Italian Constitution through the prism of its application. Bonanate provides the reader, in a clear and compelling style, with a complete interpretation of Article 11, combining the analysis of the preparatory work in the Constituent Assembly with its doctrinal interpretation and political application. The book does not only analyse the drafting of this article, but also focuses on the “political history of Article 11”, on the contemporary debate by the scientific community and, finally, on its relations with the international legal system.

Full text
Abstract:
Connecting expressions reveal how the speaker copes with text organisation; and studying aspects of the development of these forms in L2 varieties helps us throw light on both pragmatic and syntactic text organisation in interlanguages. Syntactically, linking markers are involved in the development of subordination; pragmatically, their presence gives a map of learners’ discourse articulation. The present investigation of Italian L2 interlanguages showed that simple clauses and coordination appear before subordination, and that subordinate clauses seem to develop from adverbial to complement and relative clauses. At the pragmatic level, connecting particles emerge in less developed interlanguages. The data presented here are relevant to theoretical research on subordination hierarchies (central vs. marginal forms) and those cognitive categories (time, cause, concession, etc.) which are more likely to be expressed syntactically and/or pragmatically.

Zhang, Shibingfeng. "Emotion Identification in Italian Opera." Master's thesis, Alma Mater Studiorum - Università di Bologna, 2021. http://amslaurea.unibo.it/23510/.

Full text
Abstract:
This work aims to develop classification models able to automatically perform the task of emotion identification on Italian arias. These models enable the musicologists and the public interested in opera to investigate the emotion of Italian aria in a systematical way. An aria can be seen as an independent unit of opera that is sung by one character. Each aria contains 1 to 8 verses. Considering an aria may transmit more than one emotion, a lower level granularity is adopted: the identification of the emotion transmitted at the verse level. On the basis of a manually labelled corpus comprised of 2,500 aria verses with their corresponding emotion, the �first part of this work investigates different text representations and classification approaches. Building on the results of the exploration in the �first part, the second part investigates emotion identification at the aria level. The size of supervised data is expanded by means of self-learning. The verse-level annotation is converted into aria-level annotation and each aria is assigned up to two emotion labels. I experimented with pre-trained character trigram embeddings and convolutional neural network. For the emotion identification at the verse level, the combination of character trigram based TF-IDF and neural network with 2 hidden layers outperformed other combinations, achieving an accuracy of 0.47 on the test set. As for the emotion identification at the aria level, a convolutional neural network combined with character trigram based embeddings developed based on a corpus of Italian arias achieved an accuracy of 0:68.

Tycz, Katherine Marie. "Material prayers : the use of text in early modern Italian domestic devotions." Thesis, University of Cambridge, 2018. https://www.repository.cam.ac.uk/handle/1810/276240.

Full text
Abstract:
While scholarship often focuses on how early modern Italians used images in their devotions, particularly in the post-Tridentine era, little attention has been placed upon how laypeople engaged with devotional text during times of prayer and in their everyday lives. Studies of early modern devotional texts have explored their literary content, investigated their censorship by the Church, or concentrated upon an elite readership. This thesis, instead, investigates how ordinary devotees interacted with holy words in their material form, which I have termed ‘material prayers’. Since this thesis developed under the aegis of the interdisciplinary research project, Domestic Devotions: The Place of Piety in the Italian Renaissance Home, 1400-1600, it focuses primarily on engagement with these material prayers in domestic spaces. Using an interdisciplinary approach drawing from material culture studies, literary history, social and cultural history, and art history, it brings together objects, images and archival sources to illuminate how devotees from across the socio-economic and literacy spectrums accessed and employed devotional text in their prayers and daily life. From holy words, Biblical excerpts, and prayers to textual symbols like the Sacred Monogram of the Name of Jesus, this thesis explores how and why these material prayers were employed for spiritual, apotropaic and intercessory purposes. It analyses material prayers not only in traditional textual formats (printed books and manuscripts), but also those that were printed on single-sheets of paper, inscribed on jewellery, or etched into the structure of the home. To convey how devotees engaged with and relied upon these material prayers, it considers a variety of inscribed objects, including those sanctioned by the Church as well as those which might be questioned or deemed ‘superstitious’ by ecclesiastical authorities. Sermons, Inquisition trial records, and other archival documents have been consulted to further illuminate the material evidence. The first part of the thesis, ‘On the Body’, considers the how devotees came into personal contact with texts by wearing prayers on their bodies. It examines a range of objects including prayers with protective properties, known as brevi, that were meant to be sealed in a pouch and worn around the neck, and more luxurious items of physical adornment inscribed with devotional and apotropaic text, such as necklaces and rings. The second part of the thesis enters the home to explore how the spaces people inhabited and the objects that populated their homes were decorated with material prayers. ‘In the Home’ begins with texts inscribed over the entryways of early modern Italian homes, and then considers how devotees decorated their walls with holy words and how the objects of devotion and household life were imbued with religious significance through the addition of pious inscriptions. By analysing these personal objects and the textual domestic sphere, this thesis argues that these material prayers cut across socio-economic classes, genders, and ages to embody quotidian moments of domestic devotion as well as moments of fear, anxiety and change.

Abstract:
Esta dissertação tem como objetivo investigar a presença das conjunções em um livro didático de língua italiana para estrangeiros. O material analisado consiste em textos argumentativos, com suas respectivas atividades, presentes nos três volumes da coleção Arrivederci!. Quanto ao aspecto teórico, procuramos apresentar definições de sujeito, língua, texto (KOCH, 2011a, MARCUSCHI, 2008) e argumentação, assim como modelos de competência comunicativa (BACHMAN, 2003; CELCE-MURCIA,2007). Ainda como fundamentação teórica, apresentamos um panorama comparativo das orações coordenadas e subordinadas da língua portuguesa e da língua italiana, bem como taxonomia das conjunções em ambas as línguas. Do ponto de vista metodológico, selecionamos os textos de caráter argumentativo presentes nos livros didáticos selecionados para o estudo, com base na presença de operadores modais (KOCH, 2011b) e elaboramos uma tabela para cada um dos três volumes da coleção, contendo: o número da unidade didática, a seção relativa a cada texto argumentativo, a modalidade (oral ou escrita), a quantidade, a listagem das conjunções e as atividades relacionadas a cada texto argumentativo. Quanto aos resultados obtidos, observamos que há pouca relação entre os textos argumentativos e atividades de produção escrita, potencialmente importantes para o desenvolvimento da competência linguística (SCHNEUWLY&DOLZ, 2004). Verificamos ainda, que os textos argumentativos estão desvinculados da sistematização das conjunções e de atividades explicitamente voltadas para o seu uso. O próprio Quadro Europeu Comum de Referência para as Línguas, base para o planejamento e para a elaboração de materiais didáticos, menciona o ensino da habilidade de argumentar apenas a partir do nível B2. Como último resultado deste estudo, mencionamos o descompasso entre a opinião dos professores sobre a necessidade de trabalhar sistematicamente com as conjunções desde os níveis iniciais e o baixo percentual de atividades e explicitações sobre as conjunções nos livros didáticos analisados.<br>The main goal of this dissertation is to investigate the presence of conjunctions in a textbook of Italian as a foreign language. The analyzed material are argumentative texts with their activities on the three volumes of the collection book Arrivederci!. As for the theoretical aspects, we try to present definitions of subject, language, text (KOCH, 2011a; MARCUSCHI, 2008) and argumentation, as well as the models of communicative competence (KOCH, 2011b; BACHMAN, 2003; CELCE-MURCIA, 2007). We present also for the theoretical aspects a comparative panorama of the coordinated and subordinated clauses in Portuguese and Italian and the conjunctions taxonomy in both languages. At the methodological point of view, we selected the texts in the textbooks that have had an argumentative character, it based on the presence of modals operators (KOCH, 2011b) and we made a table for each one of the volume in the collection. It had: the number of the unit, the section related of the argumentative text, the modality (oral or written), the quantity, a list of conjunctions and the activities related for each argumentative text. As for the results, we observed there is a little relation between the argumentative texts and those written activities, potentially important for the development of language skills (SCHNEUWLY & DOLZ, 2004). We also note, that the argumentative texts are unlink with the conjunctions systematization and activities focused for their use. The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, and Assessment (CEFR) cited the teaching of the argumentation ability on only from level B2. As the last result of this study, we mentioned the gap between the views of teachers on the need to work the conjunctions systematically from the beginners levels and the low percentage of activities and explanations about the conjunctions in the textbooks analyzed.

Abstract:
Today, everyone knows and uses social media. Social media offers a powerful environment for people’s thoughts and feelings and it is an enormous ever-growing source of data ranging from everyday observations to involved discussions. Moreover, it is possible for marketing researchers to analyze these data using two techniques: Text Mining and Sentiment Analysis. The aim of the research reported in this thesis is to analyze the reaction of the Italian population on Facebook about the launch of two new products in the market and, on the other hand, to evaluate the communication solution strategies of two Italians brands. An important step for a company during the launch of a product is the online advertising campaign. A promotional campaign on Facebook is useful to obtain information from user behavior and to understand what they publish on the web. It is necessary to point out that the launch of a new product can lead the company to have an increase in its visibility and consequently an increase in its profit. Therefore, the marketing and advertising action taken during the period preceding the day of launch becomes important. In today's connected world, we have witnessed a strong technological evolution that has led the Web to become a new communication channel. Thanks to the use of digital technologies, people create their own content, retrieve information they want and send messages at any time. Social media constitute a subject challenging source of new information gathering and opinion making. Big companies exploit the potential of social media during the product launch phase in order to directly reach the target audience and subsequently be able to analyze their contents. Try to study the needs, opinions and behaviors of users through the analysis of Social Media has revealed the need to develop new methodologies for the collection, modeling and analysis of data extracted online. These methodologies are: Text Mining and Sentiment Analysis. The tools of Text Mining and Sentiment Analysis are useful to the company to better understand if the actions carried out online have been appreciated by the user. The purpose of Sentiment Analysis, is to discover the "feelings" or the opinions and attitude of the user on a theme through the analysis of the texts published and shared by the users. Text mining, on the other hand, is useful for analyzing and extrapolating textual information on the web and on Social Networks. Both disciplines have found a strong application in the field of marketing and brand management. In this thesis has been analyzed the potential of the two methodologies to study two Italian business cases. The theoretical analysis will start from the concept of development on the use of Social Media and will be applied to the world of the food industry which will be the one related to the two brands analyzed in the case study. A focus will be left to Facebook because it will be the social media used to collect data. In the second chapter will be analyzed the world of data mining, introducing Sentiment Analysis and Text Mining. The study will start from an introduction and then will be described the processes, methodologies and the software used “R”. The third chapter will be devoted to the description of the characteristics of the Social Network of reference, Facebook, and how the data extracted from it can be used for Text Mining and Sentiment Analysis. The last chapter will be the most practical.The collected data will be analyzed, through a dataset. The analysis time period will be related to two distinct moments regarding the launch period of the two products: Nutella Biscuits and Crema spalmabile Pan di stelle. Subsequently the analysis will be made on the two methodologies previously described. The thesis will conclude with a comparison between the results obtained and with personal reflections.

Full text
Abstract:
Scholars have considered Italian chamber recitative laments only a transitional phenomenon between madrigal laments and laments organized on the descending tetrachord bass. However, the recitative lament is distinguished from them by its characteristic attitude toward the relationship between music and text. Composer of Italian chamber recitative laments attempted to express more subtle, refined and sometimes complicated emotion in their music. For that purpose, they intentionally created discrepancies between text and music. Sometimes they even destroy the original structure of text in order to clearly deliver the composer's own voice. The basic syntactic structure is deconstructed and reconstructed along with their reading and according to their intention. The discrepancy between text and music is, however, expectable and natural phenomena since text cannot be completely translated or transformed to music and vice versa. The composers of Italian chamber recitative laments utilized their innate heterogeneity between two materials (music and text) as a metaphor that represents the semantic essence of the genre, the conflict. In this context, Italian chamber recitative laments were a real embodiment of the so-called seconda prattica and through the study of them, finally, we more fully able to understand how the spirit of late Renaissance flourished in Italy in the first four decade of the seventeenth century.

Full text
Abstract:
The recent uprise of end-to-end speech translation models requires a new generation of parallel corpora, composed of a large amount of source language speech utterances aligned with their target language textual translations. We hereby show a pipeline and a set of methods to collect hundreds of hours of English audio-book recordings and align them with their Italian textual translations, using exclusively public domain resources gathered semi-automatically from the web. The pipeline consists in three main areas: text collection, bilingual text alignment, and forced alignment. For the text collection task, we show how to automatically find e-book titles in a target language by using machine translation, web information retrieval, and named entity recognition and translation techniques. For the bilingual text alignment task, we investigated three methods: the Gale–Church algorithm in conjunction with a small-size hand-crafted bilingual dictionary, the Gale–Church algorithm in conjunction with a bigger bilingual dictionary automatically inferred through statistical machine translation, and bilingual text alignment by computing the vector similarity of multilingual embeddings of concatenation of consecutive sentences. Our findings seem to indicate that the consecutive-sentence-embeddings similarity computation approach manages to improve the alignment of difficult sentences by indirectly performing sentence re-segmentation. For the forced alignment task, we give a theoretical overview of the preferred method depending on the properties of the text to be aligned with the audio, suggesting and using a TTS-DTW (text-to-speech and dynamic time warping) based approach in our pipeline. The result of our experiments is a publicly available multi-modal corpus composed of about 130 hours of English speech aligned with its Italian textual translation and split in 60561 triplets of English audio, English transcript, and Italian textual translation. We also post-processed the corpus so as to extract 40-MFCCs features from the audio segments and released them as a data-set.

Allori, Sonia. "Music, text, gender and notions/influences of an Italian cultural perspective as the source for original music compositions." Thesis, Edinburgh Napier University, 2011. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/Output/6691.

Full text
Abstract:
The folio of musical works supported by this document, explores the relationship between text and music. Using a variety of textual sources, from a single line of text to an epic poem to political speeches, has produced six pieces in which the relationship of the text to the music is figured in different ways; these range from the literal setting of a text to music to the abstracting of a text into a musical piece. In each case the form of the original text has been an important factor in influencing the form of the musical works. Gender considerations impact on this folio in two ways: firstly, gender is a key issue in some of the texts used as inspiration for the pieces, particularly Guinevere (2007) and Hilary &Maggie (2009).' Secondly, the folio explores how the position as a female composer affects engagement with both music and text. Finally, the folio works are related to the importance of Italian nationality to the composer. This supporting contextual document sets out the framework within which the folio was composed. It draws out the three main research threads that are explored in the folio: music and text, gender, and the Italian cultural perspective. Each thread of research is discussed with some contextual information given first, followed by an analysis of how this category impacts on the folio works.

Abstract:
Esta pesquisa visa ao estudo dos marcadores conversacionais presentes em textos humorísticos, para o desenvolvimento da oralidade em Língua Italiana. Para tanto, foram selecionados os marcadores mais utilizados em Italiano, presentes em piadas e narrativas curtas, para a elaboração de atividades junto à oficina Imparare litaliano con humorismo, que contou com a participação de doze alunos voluntários de nível pré-intermediário, no Centro de Línguas Antônio Houaiss, município de Jundiaí, estado de São Paulo. Para a seleção das atividades humorísticas, apoiamo-nos nas macro estratégias propostas por Kumaravadivelu (2003),como princípios norteadores para a prática em sala de aula; na pedagogia do Pós-Método e na abordagem comunicativa. Com base nos estudos de Margonari (2001 e 2006), que já comprovou que o humor é um recurso didático que facilita o processo de ensino-aprendizagem de língua estrangeira, favorece o desenvolvimento da criatividade, é agente motivador e reduzo filtro afetivo dos aprendizes(KRASHEN, 1982),formulamos a hipótese subjacente a este trabalho, ou seja, o humor pode auxiliar no desenvolvimento da competência comunicativa em Língua Italiana, contribuindo para o aprimoramento das habilidades linguísticas, principalmente as orais. Como metodologia da pesquisa, utilizamos a análise qualitativa dos dados obtidos por meio das filmagens das aulas, fotografias, notas de campo com as observações e reflexões da pesquisadora, comentários sobre as aulas feitos oralmente ou por escrito pelos alunos e os questionários inicial e final, segundo a perspectiva da pesquisa qualitativa proposta por Bogdan e Biklen (1994). Dentre as contribuições de nosso estudo, destacam-se a necessidade de refletir e ensinar os marcadores conversacionais e conectivos também de modo sistemático e explícito, para que os estudantes consigam compreender suas funções e usá-los em seus discursos orais e textos escritos. Além disso, ressaltamos a importância de se trabalhar conteúdos considerados mais difíceis por parte dos aprendizes com o recurso do humor, que torna a aula mais dinâmica e mais leve. A vantagem em relação a sua utilização para o estímulo e aperfeiçoamento da oralidade dos alunos é, portanto, o fator da atmosfera descontraída criada em sala de aula, propiciando aos estudantes um contexto de ensino mais tolerante aos erros, inspirando-lhes autoconfiança, baixando a ansiedade, reduzindo o filtro afetivo, permitindo que se expressem com mais frequência e liberdade.<br>This research aims to study text markers present in humorous texts for the development of the Speaking skill in Italian language. Therefore, the most used text markers in Italian were selected, especially the ones which are present in jokes and short stories, in order to elaborate the activities developed for the workshop Learning Italian with Humor, which was attended by twelve volunteer students from pre-intermediate level at the Language Center Antônio Houaiss, in Jundiaí, São Paulo state. For the selection of humorous activities, we rely on the macrostrategies proposed by Kumaravadivelu (2003), as guiding principles for practice in the classroom; on the Postmethod condition and the communicative approach. Based on studies of Margonari (2001 and 2006), who has already proved that humor is an educational resource which facilitates the process of teaching and learning a foreign language, favors the development of creativity, is a motivating agent and reduces the affective filter of students (KRASHEN, 1982), we formulated the hypothesis underlying this work, that is, humor can help in the development of communicative competence in Italian language, contributing to the improvement of language skills, especially the oral ones. As research methodology, we used the analysis of qualitative data obtained through recording video lessons, photographs, field notes with observations and reflections of the researcher, comments on the lessons made orally or in writing by the students and on the initial and final questionnaires, according to the perspective of qualitative research proposed by Bogdan and Biklen (1994). Among the contributions of our study, we highlight the need to reflect on and teach conversational and text markers in a systematic and explicit way, so that students can understand their functions and use them in their oral speeches and written texts. In addition, we emphasize the importance of working with contents which are considered as difficult ones by the learners, using humor as a resource, which makes the lessons more dynamic and \"lighter\". The advantage over its use for the stimulation and improvement of studentsoral abilities is, therefore, the factor of the relaxed atmosphere created in the classroom, providing students an educational environment more tolerant to errors, inspiring them with self confidence, lowering anxiety, reducing the affective filter, allowing them to express themselves more often and with freedom.

Abstract:
The history of genetic criticism in the Italian tradition starts with Humanism, and from Francesco Petrarch’s “Codice degli Abbozzi” (fourteenth century). This chapter traces the framework of this tradition, highlighting how, with the simple but revolutionary gesture of leaving even the ugliest copies of his own masterpieces – the so-called “scartafacci” – to posterity, Petrarch created a model of an intellectual, a champion of classicism, the “style to be imitated”. Petrarch’s model left a trace of the toil of writing, the labor limae, which is considered the secret of style. From Machiavelli to Guicciardini, from Ariosto to Tasso, the “authorial function” has delivered a model of conservation and philology. After the triumph of the “scartafacci”, two exemplary nineteenth-century cases (Manzoni and Leopardi) will be discussed, as well as the twentieth-century text production, in which the study of manuscripts, tormented by countless revisions, reveals a possible “grammar of corrections” and is flanked by crucial problems of authorship.

&lt;p&gt;The application of Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) represents a quite innovative approach on the Italian territory. This retrofitting system appears particularly promising in a high seismic risk area, in order to reduce the structural vulnerability as well as the emission of CO2. This study includes the seismic vulnerability analysis of a six‐storey steel framed building, in line with the provisions of the Italian and European codes. Furthermore, it describes the application of TMDs on the test structure. The study also illustrates the environmental gains of this structural retrofitting technique as an alternative to a demolition and reconstruction of the building.&lt;/p&gt;

Full text
Abstract:
The presentation aims to focus from an ecdotic perspective, and from unexplored hermeneutic angles, on potentially prominent features of the annotated editions in which are brought together those genologically varied literary-type writings that are correlated with the analogous artistic fields, such as the visual arts, architecture or music, starting from relevant concrete examples in the Italian cultural landscape. Furthermore, attention will be drawn to how to make an edition of a philological character, scientifically grounded, in which a literary transposition of the philosophical content takes place, invested in it as well in an interdisciplinary sense. In addition to texts outlining art and philosophy, the current paper explores those belonging to the sphere of the sciences, if they possess similar literary attributes because they present certain thematic connections or consistent stylistic constants. Simultaneously, the intent is to analyze the ways in which a component of literariness is infused into these texts, which is observed both in terms of content and form, that is, emerging from the predilected theme, or from their internal characteristics. Thus in the paper are approached utterly important theoretical and literary-critical questions from an interdisciplinary perspective, making it possible to arrive at innovative knowledge from the unfolding potential, developing such texts.

Full text
Abstract:
The blog post discusses the linguistic and cultural peculiarities of Piedmont and the Aosta Valley, two regions that have historically straddled France and Italy. It provides a brief historical linguistic overview of the development of Gallo-Romance languages (French, Franco-Provençal, and Occitan) in these regions. The piece describes the Francophile and Francophone orientation of Piedmont throughout its history, as well as the belated introduction of Tuscan (Italian). It stresses the singularity of Piedmontese, and its close linguistic relation to neighbouring Gallo-Romance languages. Against this background, the text assesses the current state and vitality of Franco- and Gallo-Romance peripheries within the borders of Italy, and explains how such identities have evolved, been reshaped or become politicized. Primordialist and constructivist perspectives on national (and minority) identities are combined to better understand the development, decay, and reconfiguration of linguistic and cultural identities in Piedmont and the Aosta Valley.

Biancalana, Cecilia. Italy’s multiple populisms facing the Russo-Ukrainian war. European Center for Populism Studies (ECPS), 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.55271/rp0022.

Full text
Abstract:
Italy has been defined as a laboratory for populism and a “populist paradise.” Indeed, multiple forms of populism coexist in Italy, covering the entire political spectrum. From the “left-wing” Movimento 5 Stelle to the right-wing coalition composed of Fratelli d’Italia, Forza Italia and the Lega, we can be sure that populism is very popular in Italy. We can be equally sure that, over the last few years, all these parties have had links to the Putin regime. Suffice it to mention the decades-long friendship between Silvio Berlusconi and Vladimir Putin or the admiration Matteo Salvini, the head of the Lega, has demonstrated for the president of the Russian Federation. However, the Russian invasion and the extensive popular and institutional support evinced for Ukraine in its wake changed everything, leaving populist parties scrambling to review their positions and modify their discourse. In the report, I will examine the ties between the main Italian populist parties (Fratelli d’Italia, Forza Italia, Lega, Movimento 5 Stelle) and Russia and the shifts in their positions towards President Putin in the aftermath of the invasion. Against this backdrop, the September 2022 elections in Italy can be considered as a “test case” to measure the success of the populist parties’ strategies to negotiate the crisis and to shed light on the changing balance of power within the broad populist field.

Die vorliegende Studie verfolgt vier Ziele. Sie soll einen kurzen Überblick über die wichtigsten Verfahren der Prognosegütemessung bei makroökonomischen Prognosen geben. Es sollen zwei neue Verfahren zur Beurteilung makroökonomischer Prognosen vorgestellt werden: Der Test auf Informationszuwachs und der GOVA-Koeffizient. Die Autoren denken, dabei handelt es sich um besonders geeignete Ansätze, weil sie realistische Anforderungen an die Prognostiker stellen. Außerdem soll gezeigt werden, dass Prognoseerfolge und Prognosemisserfolge mit dem Test auf Unverzerrtheit nicht angemessen differenziert werden können. Darüber hinaus soll die Studie einen Überblick über den Erfolg von Konjunkturprognosen in zwölf Industrienationen geben. Im Einzelnen handelt es sich um Konsensprognosen zur Entwicklung des BIP, der Industrieproduktion und der privaten Konsumausgaben in den USA, Japan, Deutschland, Frankreich, Großbritannien, Italien, Spanien, Kanada, Niederlande, Schweiz, Schweden und Norwegen.

Full text
Abstract:
An employability strategy communicates the commitment of higher education institutions (HEIs) towards students’ future, signals effectiveness and efficiency in resource allocation, and positions HEIs against competing institutions. However, not all HEIs display the same awareness when it comes to the design of a coherent bundle of actions in support of their graduates’ employability. This paper focuses on the formation of employment strategies to test the contrasting hypotheses of planned strategy, that frames strategy as an explicit and purposeful plan fully designed before deployment, and emergent strategy, where the adopted plan gradually unfolds from the interaction among different players and circumstances. Four case studies of Italian and Portuguese HEIs reveal emergent employability strategies that surpass the limitations set by modest intended employability targets. However, lack of guidance from an explicit action plan and limited resources may question the long-term viability of the emerging approaches.

Abstract:
Original objectives . 1. Test anti-fungal gene products for activity against Uncinula necator, Aspergillus niger, Rhizopus stolonifer and Botrytis cinerea. 2. For Agrobacterium transformation, design appropriate vectors with gene combinations. 3. Use biolistic bombardment and Agrobacterium for transformation of important cultivars. 4. Characterize gene expression in transformants, as well as level of powdery mildew and Botrytis resistance in foliage of transformed plants. Background The production of new grape cultivars by conventional breeding is a complex and time-consuming process. Transferring individual traits via single genes into elite cultivars was proposed as a viable strategy, especially for vegetatively propagated crops such as grapevines. The availability of effective genetic transformation procedures, the existence of genes able to reduce pathogen stress, and improved in vitro culture methods for grapes, were combined to serve the objective of this proposal. Effective deployment of resistance genes would reduce production costs and increase crop quality, and several such genes and combinations were used in this project. Progress The efficacy of two-way combinations of Trichoderma endochitinase (CHIT42), synthetic peptide ESF12 and resveratrol upon the control of growth of Botrytis cinerea and Penicillium digitatum were evaluated in vitro. All pairwise interactions were additive but not synergistic. Per objective 2, suitable vectors with important gene combinations for Agrobacterium transformation were designed. In addition, multiple gene co-transformation by particle bombardment was also tested successfully. In New York, transformation work focused on cultivars Chardonnay and Merlot, while the technology in Israel was extended to 41B, R. 110, Prime, Italia, Gamay, Chardonnay and Velika. Transgenic plant production is summarized in the appendix. Among plants developed in Israel, endochitinase expression was assayed via the MuchT assay using material just 1-5 days after co-cultivation. Plants of cv. Sugraone carrying the gene coding for ESF12, a short anti-fungal lytic peptide under the control of the double 358 promoter, were produced. Leaf extracts of two plants showed inhibition zones that developed within 48 h indicating the inhibitory effect of the leaf extracts on the six species of bacteria. X fastidiosa, the causal organism of Pierce's disease, was very sensitive to leaf extracts from ESF12 transformed plants. Further work is needed to verify the agricultural utility of ESF12 transformants. In New York, some transformants were resistant to powdery mildew and Botrytis fruit rot. Major conclusions, solutions, achievements and implications The following scientific achievements resulted from this cooperative BARD project: 1. Development and improvement of embryogenesis and tissue culture manipulation in grape, while extending these procedures to several agriculturally important cultivars both in Israel and USA. 2. Development and improvement of novel transformation procedures while developing transformation techniques for grape and other recalcitrant species. 3. Production of transgenic grapevines, characterization of transformed vines while studying the expression patterns of a marker gene under the control of different promoter as the 35S CaMV in different part of the plants including flowers and fruits. 4. Expression of anti-fungal genes in grape: establishment of transgenic plants and evaluation of gene expression. Development of techniques to insert multiple genes. 5. Isolation of novel grape specific promoter to control the expression of future antimicrobial genes. It is of great importance to report that significant progress was made in not only the development of transgenic grapevines, but also in the evaluation of their potential for increased resistance to disease as compared with the non engineered cultivar. In several cases, increased disease resistance was observed. More research and development is still needed before a product can be commercialized, yet our project lays a framework for further investigations.
