From the “reception trap” to the “denied reception”. The tightening of migration policies and the centrality of informal settlements between segregation and resistance
No full textAbstract
Alongside the external borders of Italy, but also across its internal territories, we are witnessing an evolving process of production of new social relations and new micro-spatialities that tend to progressively change the territorial features. This new “presence” of asylum seekers across the urban spaces and the new strategies adopted to control it lead us to question the evolutions (and weakness) of that securitarian rhetorics and policies that have been at the center of the migrations government in Italy, for many years. Security policies that in recent years seem to have found new vigour and a certain hegemony even with respect to the right to asylum and reception.This paper, based on the observations collected during an ethnographic research carried out in Padua, explores the social implications of the frame of segregation, social abandonment and urban dispersion that characterize asylum seekers (and ex asylum seekers) daily surviving and resisting accross the urban areas.
Moreover we focus on the ways in which this internal “borderscapes” has become in certain cases a urban “battleground” that makes less linear the urban governance of the migrants within the securitarian paradigm. In this sense we have looked at the counter-conduct put in place against the lack of freedom and the violation of the rights especially for those excluded fron the institutionale reception system, so turning our gaze outside the reception facilities dealing with those who, forcibly or voluntarily, are populating the informal settlements that now materialize in Padova and many other Italian cities
What Has Magic to Do with Prayer? Unorthodox Minitexts in vade mecum Prayerbooks for Priests
Full text linkIn recent years, a growing number of studies of smaller, simpler and much tattered liturgical manuscripts that were produced for the use of missionaries, priests of small churches and itinerant preachers, have contributed immensely to our understanding of early medieval liturgy, and of what pastoral care really consisted of in the early medieval West. Many of these vade mecum handbooks for priests also contain some small, unorthodox texts of magical nature. Notwithstanding the fact that throughout Late Antiquity and the early Middle Ages such texts and the worldview they represented were repeatedly questioned, denounced and condemned by Christian authorities and policy makers, they were copied into, or attached to, Christian handbooks for priests. This paper looks at a few examples of such texts, and attempts to explain their presence in liturgical codices by referring to the nature of magic and magical practices in the early medieval West.In recent years, a growing number of studies of smaller, simpler and much tattered liturgical manuscripts that were produced for the use of missionaries, priests of small churches and itinerant preachers, have contributed immensely to our understanding of early medieval liturgy, and of what pastoral care really consisted of in the early medieval West.

Sfide della ricerca e della pubblicazione: il contesto delle università pubbliche etiopi
No full textResearch is one of the three main missions of Ethiopian public universities i.e., education, research, and community engagement. Many studies in the past have shown that the universities’ research output through research-based innovations and publications is low. But the current state of affairs has not been explored well. It is also rare to find studies that compared completed research projects and published papers in public universities. Studies that assess Ethiopian public universities’ research and publication trends and challenges are also missing. To this end, the current study aims at exploring the challenges of research and publication in Jinka University. Descriptive survey design was employed, and the necessary data was collected using questionnaire, interview, and focus group discussions. Both quantitative and qualitative data analysis techniques were carried out in the study. Descriptive statistics including frequencies and percentages were employed to analyze the quantitative data, while thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative data. The results interpreted and discussed in relation to the research questions and relevant literature. Finally, based on the results, conclusions were drawn, and recommendations suggested.La ricerca è una delle tre missioni principali delle università pubbliche etiopi, ovvero istruzione, ricerca e coinvolgimento della comunità. Molti studi in passato hanno dimostrato che la produzione di ricerca delle università attraverso innovazioni e pubblicazioni basate sulla ricerca è bassa. Ma lo stato attuale delle cose non è stato esplorato bene. È anche raro trovare studi che confrontano progetti di ricerca completati e articoli pubblicati nelle università pubbliche. Mancano anche studi che valutano le tendenze e le sfide della ricerca e della pubblicazione delle università pubbliche etiopi. A tal fine, lo studio attuale mira a esplorare le sfide della ricerca e della pubblicazione nella Jinka University. È stato impiegato un modello di sondaggio descrittivo e i dati necessari sono stati raccolti utilizzando questionari, interviste e discussioni di gruppo. Nello studio sono state eseguite tecniche di analisi dei dati sia quantitative che qualitative. Sono state impiegate statistiche descrittive, tra cui frequenze e percentuali, per analizzare i dati quantitativi, mentre l'analisi tematica è stata utilizzata per analizzare i dati qualitativi. I risultati sono stati interpretati e discussi in relazione alle domande di ricerca e alla letteratura pertinente. Infine, sulla base dei risultati, sono state tratte conclusioni e sono state suggerite raccomandazioni
Il rosso come colore della vita
No full textThe aim of this article is to develop a study around the concept of beauty, starting from reflections on some terms of the Russian language, in particular the term krasnyj with some of its possible declinations, compared with other Slavic languages. These linguistic analyses have the aim of making explicit one of the premises of this study: the anchoring to the immanent condition of the phenomenon of beauty, although investigated on the symbolic level of culture, through that signifying system, as the form of knowledge par excellence, which is language. In this way emerges that concrete, sensitive, “material” side of existence that gives body to a true and proper phenomenology of beauty.L’obiettivo di quest’articolo consiste nello sviluppare uno studio intorno al concetto di bellezza, partendo dalle riflessioni su alcuni termini della lingua russa, in particolare il termine krasnyj con alcune delle sue possibili declinazioni, considerati in comparazione con le altre lingue slave. Queste analisi linguistiche hanno la finalità di rendere esplicito un presupposto di questo studio: l’ancoraggio alla condizione immanente del fenomeno della bellezza, per quanto indagato sul piano simbolico della cultura, mediante quel sistema significante, in quanto forma di conoscenza per eccellenza, che è la lingua. In questo modo emerge quel lato concreto, sensibile, “materiale” dell’esistenza che dà corpo a una vera e propria fenomenologia della bellezza
Metonymy as a privileged manifestation of linguistic motivation
No full textCome si argomenterà in questo lavoro, la metonimia costituisce una manifestazione di particolare rilievo della motivazione linguistica, sia in ragione della pervasività della metonimia nella comunicazione quotidiana (sostenuta, tra gli altri da Lakoff e Johnson: 1980; Littlemore: 2015; Radden: 2005; Wachowski: 2019), sia nella misura alcuni dei principi che regolano il collegamento tra entità linguistico-concettuali nella motivazione si riscontrano anche nella metonimia. Tra questi, la condizione basilare che le entità coinvolte siano connesse all’interno di una stessa rete di conoscenze, sia questa il sistema linguistico stesso, sia essa un frame di conoscenze extralinguistiche condivise in una comunità linguistico culturale. Il primo breve paragrafo pone come punto di partenza le nozioni saussuriane di arbitrarietà, arbitrarietà relativa e motivazione. Il secondo propone una caratterizzazione della nozione di motivazione sulla base di studi recenti. Il terzo paragrafo è dedicato a una descrizione del fenomeno della metonimia, traendo soprattutto dalle riflessioni nell’ambito della Linguistica Cognitiva. In questi due paragrafi vengono anche messi in evidenza i punti di contatto e di sovrapposizione tra i due fenomeni, che poi sono brevemente ripresi nelle conclusioni.In the paper, it will be argued that metonymy represents a particularly relevant manifestation of linguistic motivation, both on account of the pervasiveness of metonymy itslef in everyday communication (pointed out, among others, by Lakoff e Johnson: 1980; Littlemore: 2015; Radden: 2005; Wachowski: 2019), and in consideration of the fact that several of the principles that regulate the linking of linguistic-conceptual entities in motivation can also be observed in the operation of metonymy. Among these, the basic condition that involved entities are connected within the same knowledge network, be it the linguistic system itself, or a frame of extralinguistic knowledge entrenched in a linguistic-cultural community. The first brief section sets as a starting point the saussurean notions of arbitrariness, relative arbitrariness and motivation. Section 2, based on recent studies, offers a characterization of the notion of motivation. Section 3 is devoted to a description of metonymy, primarily based on studies in Cognitive Linguistics. Also, in these two sections, the commonalities and areas of overlap between the two phenomena are highlighted, to then be briefly resumed in the conclusions
