Russian Cultural Studies e Kul’turologija in Italia: una proposta di ricognizione bibliografica (1990-2020)
Get PDFRussian Cultural Studies and Kul'turologija in Italy: A proposal for bibliographical research (1990-2020) Giulia Baselica Università degli studi di Torino Over the last thirty years, Italian Russistics has been enriched by numerous publications on cultural topics, thus better defining the blurred boundaries and vast areas of a transversal research strand that identifies its disciplinary models with American Cultural Studies and Russian-Soviet Kul'turologija. Whereas Lotman's boundless scientific production has, at least in part, been the subject of translation and analysis, as well as some important studies by Lichačëv and Averincev, various scientific works were dedicated to the study of specific aspects and expressions of Russian, Soviet and post-Soviet culture – relating to literature, folklore, visual and performing arts, media, byt, national cultural symbols, mass culture and other topics – in various research areas: Cross-cultural studies, Comparative cultural studies, Cultural history, Cultural geography, Gender studies, Cultural heritage studies, Popular culture studies, Cultural semiotics, and many more. In Italian Russistics, the expression 'Russian culture' appears, presumably for the first time, in 1923 in the volume Saggi sulla cultura russa (Essays on Russian culture) by Ettore Lo Gatto and replicated by the author himself in the still unpublished typescript, Storia della cultura russa (History of Russian Culture) dating back to the very early 1980s. The Lo Gatto’s project – a literary profile of Russia within a broadly cultural framework – was followed by a two-decade-long silence. Towards the end of the 1990s, Gian Piero Piretto would start a debate on Cultural studies methodological approaches and fields of investigation applied to the Russian world. This paper aims to outline an overview of the main orientations and research themes of Russian Cultural Studies in Italy. Key words: Annotated Bibliography; Italian Russian Studies; Russian Cultural Studies; Russian Cultural Studies; Kul’turologija; Russian Culture. Russian Cultural Studies e Kul’turologija in Italia: una proposta di ricognizione bibliografica (1990-2020) Abstract Negli ultimi trent'anni la russistica italiana si è arricchita di numerose pubblicazioni di argomento culturale, precisando i confini labili e le vaste aree di un filone di ricerca trasversale che identifica i suoi modelli disciplinari con i Cultural Studies anglo-americani e la Kul'turologija russo-sovietica. Mentre la sterminata produzione scientifica di Jurij Lotman è stata, almeno in parte, oggetto di traduzione e analisi, così come alcuni importanti studi di Lichačëv e Averincev, numerosi lavori scientifici sono stati dedicati allo studio di specifici aspetti ed espressioni della cultura russa, sovietica e post-sovietica ‒ relativi alla letteratura, al folklore, alle arti visive e performative, ai media, al byt, ai simboli culturali nazionali, alla cultura di massa e ad altri temi ‒ in varie aree di ricerca: studi interculturali, studi culturali comparati, storia culturale, geografia culturale, studi di genere, studi sul patrimonio culturale, studi sulla cultura popolare, semiotica culturale e molti altri. Nella russistica italiana, l'espressione “cultura russa” compare, presumibilmente per la prima volta, nel 1923 nel volume Saggi sulla cultura russa di Ettore Lo Gatto e replicata dallo stesso autore nel dattiloscritto, ancora inedito, Storia della cultura russa, risalente ai primissimi anni Ottanta. Al progetto di Lo Gatto ‒ un profilo letterario della Russia all'interno di un quadro ampiamente culturale ‒ seguì un silenzio lungo due decenni. Verso la fine degli anni Novanta Gian Piero Piretto avrebbe avviato un dibattito sugli approcci metodologici e i campi di indagine degli studi culturali applicati al mondo russo. Il presente contributo si propone di tracciare una panoramica dei principali orientamenti e temi di ricerca degli studi culturali russi in Italia.

Reconstructing the image of a nation through exotic narratives. The case of Albanian authors writing in Italian
Get PDFItalian language narratives of Albanian authors hold a substantial presence in the Italian publishing arena. While frequently addressing themes associated with their homeland, these authors explore a diverse array of genres, including novels, memoirs, detective fiction, and poetry. This discussion, however, will not delve into the latter genre, as its unique aesthetic and formal characteristics would warrant a separate analysis. Despite the diversity of content and individualities of its authors, this narrative persists in being categorized either under the all-encompassing label of "migrant literature" or examined through a gender-focused lens, with predominant emphasis on some of the most renowned female writers. In our view, this peculiarity of the Italian literary criticism regarding Albanian literature can be attributed to a not yet entirely refined framing of the Albanian literary landscape itself and the historical-cultural context of a nation that, having endured nearly five centuries of Ottoman rule, was perceived as a mysterious Islamic outpost in the heart of Europe. Consequently, it remained one of the least explored European countries until relatively recently
Estratégias discursivas para a legitimação da ditadura: entre ‘política de verdade’ e política da verdade
Get PDFEquipped with balanced budgets and international praise for his work, António de Oliveira Salazar became Minister of Finance on April 27, 1928, with reinforced powers as per usual at the time. After several crises caused by the instability of the government, which gave rise to a new formation of the executive, the resolution of the last one is followed by the third speech made in public by Salazar, on October 21, 1929, in the Sala do Conselho de Estado, for the occasion of the homage paid to him by the Municipal Councils of the country.The main theme of the paper is precisely the aforementioned speech, entitled “Política de Verdade; Política de Sacrifício; Política Nacional”, where the Minister sets out his ideas on the future of the country and calls for the writing of a new Constitution, capable of creating a stable political order.The study intends to identify some of the linguistic strategies applied by Salazar to gain the trust of his public and, in this specific case, to gain consensus regarding the legitimation of the dictatorship. To this end, we will focus our analysis on aspects such as the ethos and the regime’s association with the dichotomy of truth and lie, which suggests that ditadura is true politics and, indisputably, the politics of truth. Munido de orçamentos equilibrados e elogios internacionais à sua atuação, António de Oliveira Salazar torna-se Ministro das Finanças a 27 de abril de 1928, com poderes reforçados relativamente ao habitual na época. Após várias crises causadas pela instabilidade do governo, que deram origem à uma nova formação do executivo, a resolução da última delas é seguida pelo terceiro discurso pronunciado em público por Salazar, a 21 de outubro de 1929, na Sala do Conselho de Estado, por ocasião da homenagem que lhe foi prestada pelas Câmaras Municipais do país.Fulcro do trabalho aqui presente é precisamente dito discurso, intitulado “Política de Verdade; Política de Sacrifício; Política Nacional”, onde o ministro expõe as suas ideias sobre o futuro do país e apela à redação de uma nova Constituição, capaz de criar uma ordem política estável.O estudo que apresentamos pretende individuar algumas das estratégias linguísticas aplicadas por Salazar para ganhar a confiança do seu público e, no caso específico, para ganhar consenso no que se refere à legitimação da ditadura. Para tal centraremos a nossa análise em aspectos quais o ethos e a associação do regime à dicotomia verdade e mentira, da qual resultará que a ditadura é, indiscutivelmente, a política da verdade.
In Oga Magoga. Destinazioni e provenienze (un tempo presenti) nel linguaggio idiomatico italiano
Get PDFThe contribution of the toponymic component in the construction of idioms is, unlike what one might think, truly conspicuous. It is a material, often of considerable importance and scope, which has not had great success in our lexicography. In this paper, we will focus on some Italian idiomatic expressions – no longer in use – that contain toponyms. In the second part we reconstruct the particularly interesting history of the expressions linked to Oga Magoga
On allusion from a socio-cognitive perspective
Get PDFAlthough there is no shortage of research on irony or metaphor, there is a scarcity of theoretical work on allusion. In this paper, I focus on allusion and advance a proposal that builds on earlier studies but refines them in the light of current usage-based, complexity-driven models of language. I look at allusion in the framework of the Entrenchment-and-Conventionalization Model (EC-Model hereafter). The EC-Model is a usage-based and emergentist model of language knowledge and convention rooted in cognitive linguistics that explains the processes underlying the intertwining of social practice and cognition. In accordance with this model, this paper considers allusion as a complex phenomenon that emerges in usage out of the interaction of the intentional activation on the part of the speaker – through linguistic markers of any length, belonging to any usage event type – of a network of entrenched associations and conventionalized conformity profiles assumed to be shared with the hearer
Capri, Капри, Капрі. Le intersezioni insulari di Maksim Gor’kij e Mychajlo Kocjubyns’kyj tra vita e prosa letteraria
Get PDFIn some of their works, Maxim Gorky (1868-1936) and Mykhailo Kotsiubynsky (1864-1913) were inspired by their long stay in Capri. At that time, both authors were subjects of the Russian tsar, belonging to the same generation, and later became part of the Russian and Ukrainian literary canon, respectively. It was on the Italian island that they were able to meet and begin a friendship based on great mutual respect. In this article, after recounting the experience the two writers shared on the Italian island, I will analyze and compare excerpts from Gorky’s well-known Italian Tales (Skazki ob Italii) and Kotsiubynsky’s less famous The Dream (Son) and On the Island (Na ostrovi). More specifically, I would like to demonstrate how Gorky’s texts are more characterized by a realistic approach with social elements, while in the texts of Kotsiubynsky the details of the landscape fade into a literary impressionism with fairy-tale traits. However, in both cases the sunny island of Capri symbolizes the beginning of a completely new life (for the lyrical subject or even for the whole of humanity)
Un viaggio nei sonetti di Manuel Alegre
Get PDFWritten under the sign of travel, of the political persecutions of Salazar’s dictatorship, of colonization and war, of emigration and exile, Manuel Alegre’s verses, as a syntagm that allows us to reconstruct the isotopy of the wandering of the Portuguese people, seem to continue these (un)finished stories – a story of travel and transformation and, paradoxically, of the search for an inherited, reinterpreted and rewritten Western literary universe. Condemned to the diaspora, the poet reads the official history of the Portuguese people with dismay and rewrites it in lands of exile and war, as well as their loneliness, bitterness and disenchantment, through a kind of “synchronic poetics”. From this perspective, this article proposes a reflection on the Portuguese Manuel Alegre’s sonnets, in particular those in the anthologies Atlântico (1981) and Sonetos do Obscuro Quê (1993) as a political gesture of rupture with the Portuguese imperialist tradition and its impact on the author’s poetic creation
Avrei preferito stare vicino ai cannoni. Il IV Congresso Nazionale delle Arti e Tradizioni Popolari e l'attività scientifica di Giuseppe Schirò (1905-1984) durante il fascismo
Get PDFIn this work we will reconstruct, through unpublished documents preserved in the historical archive of the Accademia dei Lincei, a part of Giuseppe Schirò's life, precisely the period between 1939 and 1944. In these years he worked as secretary of the Centro di Studi per l'Albania, organ of the Reale Accademia d'Italia, and here he had the important task of coordinating and maintaining contacts with Albanian, Arbëreshë and Italian scholars who dealt with Albanian issues and who, without his contribution, would hardly have been able to build that which until then, and for a long time to follow, was the greatest cultural collaboration between Italy and Albania in all fields of knowledge
L'agente sportivo e la professione forense: un dialogo (a volte) difficile!
Get PDFItLa professione di agente sportivo, regolata da norme di settore, ha spesso posto problemi riguardanti la compatibilità della contemporanea iscrizione dello stesso agente in albi professionali che hanno una disciplina propria. Sorgono, dunque, incompatibilità che, di volta in volta, possono impedire al professionista lo svolgimento di attività diverse da quanto previsto dalla propria legge professionale. Il presente scritto – in considerazione della peculiarità della professione di agente sportivo e della vicinanza della stessa (quantomeno con riferimento alle competenze giuridiche inerenti alla materia contrattuale) alla professione di avvocato – analizza la problematica concernente la possibilità o meno della contemporanea iscrizione dell'agente sportivo nell'elenco federale e nell'albo degli avvocati.EnThe profession of a sports agent, which is regulated by sector regulations, often creates problems related to the compatibility of the agent's simultaneous registration in various professional registers that have their own specific discipline. This leads to incompatibilities, which can sometimes prevent the professional from carrying out activities other than what is allowed by their own professional law. This article analyzes the issue of whether a sports agent can be registered simultaneously in the federal list and the register of lawyers, considering the peculiarities of the sports agent's profession and its proximity to the legal skills required for contractual matters
Gestione del rischio negli eventi sportivi: principio di precauzione e D.a.spo.
Get PDFItLa riflessione giuspubblicistica sulla gestione del rischio tende ormai a tracimare in settori profondamente diversi da quelli della tutela della salute e dell'ambiente, in riferimento ai quali si è affermato il principio di precauzione. In questo contesto di espansione del principio di precauzione al di fuori dei tradizionali ambiti di riferimento, il contributo procede all'analisi della gestione del rischio nel settore sportivo, ed in particolare nella prospettiva in cui l'approccio precauzionale e preventivo trova sua specifica attuazione, ossia in relazione al divieto di accesso alle manifestazioni sportive, c.d. D.a.spo., identificato come misura precauzionale dalla giurisprudenza amministrativa. La valutazione circa l'inaffidabilità del soggetto spetta all'Autorità amministrativa, la quale è chiamata a un apprezzamento discrezionale nel bilanciamento tra il prevalente interesse pubblico alla tutela dell'ordine e della sicurezza dei cittadini e l'interesse privato ad accedere liberamente negli stadi.EnBy now, public law reflection on risk management tends to overflow into sectors profoundly different from those of health and environmental protection, in reference to which the precautionary principle has been affirmed. In this context of expansion of the precautionary principle outside the traditional spheres of reference, the paper analyses risk management in the sports sector, and in particular in the perspective in which the precautionary and preventive approach finds its specific implementation, that is, in relation to the restricting orders on access to sports events, the so-called D.a.spo., identified as a precautionary measure by the administrative jurisprudence. The assessment of the unreliability of the person must be carried out by the administrative authority, which is called upon to make a discretionary assessment in balancing the prevailing public interest in protecting the order and safety of citizens and the private interest in free access to stadiums
