A Systemic-Functional Approach to Music, Meaning and Multimodal Transposition
Get PDFThe present study aims to make a contribution to multimodal studies adopting a systemic-functional framework to build a theoretical device that allows analysing music in multimodal constructions. Our proposal is based on Kress & van Leeuwen’s model for image analysis (2005). Several categories proposed by these authors have been re-elaborated to fit a musical approach and new categories have been added following McKerrell (2015) and van Leeuwen (1999) perspectives. Our working hypothesis is that meaning in music is socially conventionalised and associated with meaningful constructions in other modes. Thus absolute music conceptualizations access multimodal levels of discourse as part of representations constituted by associated meanings in the different modes
Sulla sostituzione di se con ci nei dialetti salentini: note diatopiche e diacroniche
Get PDFItIl contributo si propone di indagare la dinamica diacronica del noto fenomeno per cui, in molti dialetti del Salento, la congiunzione se (< lat. SI) è sostituita da una forma ci identica al complementatore e pronome relativo ci < QUI. Notoriamente, il fenomeno interessa un'ampia sezione dei dialetti meridionali orientali, che si estende dalla Lucania orientale al Capo di Leuca includendo Bari (ROHLFS § 779). Sulla base della documentazione diacronica delle varietà salentine, in questa sede si avanza l'ipotesi che l'innovazione abbia avuto come epicentro le varietà alto-meridionali orientali, per poi diffondersi nelle parlate di Terra d'Otranto solo tardivamente, cioè a partire dopo il XVII secolo. Sembrano indicativi in questo senso tanto la documentazione salentina medievale, che non reca alcuna traccia del fenomeno, quanto la letteratura dialettale riflessa del primo Settecento, in cui il tratto è documentato con sicurezza solo nei testi salentini settentrionali, e in particolare nella commedia francavillese Nniccu Furcedda.EnThe contribution sets out to investigate the diachronic dynamics of the well-known phenomenon whereby, in some Salento dialects, the conjunction se (< Lat. SI) is replaced by a form ci identical to the complementizer and relative pronoun ci < QUI. Notoriously, the phenomenon affects a large section of eastern southern dialects, extending from eastern Lucania to the Capo di Leuca including Bari (ROHLFS779). On the basis of the diachronic documentation of the Salento varieties, the hypothesis is put forward here that the innovation had its epicentre in the eastern "Upper South (Alto-meridionale)" varieties, before spreading to the dialects of Terra d'Otranto at a later stage, after the 17th century. Particularly relevant in this respect are medieval Salento documents, which bear no trace of the phenomenon, and the dialect literature of the early 18th century, in which the feature is only reliably documented in northern Salento texts, in particular in the comedy Nniccu Furcedda written in the dialect of Francavilla Fontana
