Estetiche della geolocalizzazione. Pratiche artistiche e media locativi
Get PDFLa geolocalizzazione, originariamente sviluppata come tecnologia a uso militare e oggi parte integrante della vita quotidiana, ha trasformato radicalmente il rapporto con lo spazio pubblico. Partendo da questo presupposto, il libro esplora la genesi e l’evoluzione dei locative media, forme di comunicazione digitale legate alla posizione geografica, analizzandone la metamorfosi in uno strumento di mediazione artistica emerso parallelamente ai primi utilizzi civili del tracciamento satellitare. La tendenza si consolida nei primi anni Duemila come risposta post-desktop alla net art, sfruttando il potenziale performativo delle reti mobili. Ricevitori e dispositivi personali ridefiniscono l’idea stessa di spazio di vita, modulando la percezione di scala tra distanze geografiche e rappresentazione mediata del territorio; un ambito in cui si aprono riflessioni sul corpo dell’artista come elemento attivo di misurazione, connessione e mappatura critica di sistemi di controllo
Identità di ruolo e identità personale di chi opera nella tratta
Get PDFIn this chapter we will address the concepts of competence, personal identity
and role identity. The goal of the chapter is to understand how orienting oneself towards a role identity is fundamental to being competent
Pour une ‘analyse du discours traductologique’: une première réflexion théorique et méthodologique
Get PDFThe aim of this article is to develop an initial theoretical and methodological ref lection on disciplinary trajectories at the crossroads of two research areas: discourse analysis and translation studies. This proposal is divided into two parts. The first one is devoted to the theoretical and methodological conver-gences that are made possible thanks to the intersection between French dis-course analysis and the Interpretative theory of translation. The second part aims to show some first examples of the application of such a hybrid approach, high-lighting in particular the interest of a ‘translational discourse analysis’ applied to meta-discourses on translation. Our ref lection will lead to the definition of research perspectives in translational discourse analysis with the aim of contrib-uting, more broadly, to the mutual scientific enrichment between the two areas involved
Item-specific order effects in paired comparisons
No full textThe effect of the order of presentation in paired comparison models
is most often assumed to be constant accross the compared items. This assumption is not realistic, especially in sports competitions where players or teams can derive different benefits from playing on their own field in front of their supporters. This work discusses ridge-type estimation of item-specific order effects in paired comparisons using a combination of composite likelihood and empirical Bayes methods. The methodology is illustrated through the analysis of sport tournament data
Petrographic and mineralogical characterization of asteroid (162173) Ryugu: The possible new ref-erence material for the Solar System element abundance
Get PDFFollowing its formation at 4.5672 Ga (Amelin et al., 2002), the Solar System underwent chemical and isotopic fractionation that modified the primitive composition of the solar nebula. In order to under-stand the evolution of the Solar System, it is of significant importance to constrain its unmodified composition. Ivuna-type CI carbonaceous chondrites show a strong compositional match with the solar photosphere, suggesting that they represent the most pristine Solar System material (Holweger, 1977). For this reason, CI chondrites have been considered for decades the best candidate as reference material for the Solar System elemental abundance.
Fragments from the C-type asteroid (162173) Ryugu, collected by the JAXA/Hayabusa2 mission (Watanabe et al., 2019), show strong chemical and mineralogical similarities with CI chondrites, but a negligible amount of terrestrial weathering (Yokoyama et al., 2022). Since terrestrial weathering may have led to chemical and isotopic modifications in CI chondrites, the asteroid Ryugu may represent a more pristine reference material for the Solar System element abundance, hence the importance of carrying out a full characterization of the returned samples.
In this work, we present the results of a petrographic and mineralogical characterization carried out on two Ryugu particles by means of state-of-the-art analytical instrumentation, with the aim to con-tribute to the definition of the possible new standard material for future geochemical and cosmochemical studies

Due set di metapodiali e falangi con esemplari iscritti dall’area artigianale C1 del Bostel di Rotzo (VI): elementi rituali o funzionali?
No full textIn addition to several pit houses, the excavations on the village of Bostel di Rotzo
unearthed the remains of a pottery workshop with activity held between the end of the 4th and the 2nd centuries BC. Inside it, two sets of spatially confined, selected anatomical elements, were recovered. The first cluster (2006-2010) was found near the south-western furnace and totalled 60 items, including 32 metapodials, 27 phalanxes and 1 horncore fragment; 12 of these featured inscriptions. The second lot was discovered recently in a wooden-floor area on the north-eastern part of the same structure and totalled 78 elements, of which 7 featured inscriptions. The systematic selection of phalanxes and metapodials was once more evident. The presence of several unfused epiphyses found in undisturbed anatomical connection suggested the existence of connective tissue in the pre-depositional phase.
This paper presents the context of the discovery, the osteological analysis, and alternative models of interpretation. In particular, the hypothesis of a rituality connected to craft activities, as has been hypothesized for other contexts of the pre-Roman Veneto, or a practical use with a numeral function, will be evaluated
A mo’ di conclusione: arte ed esoterismo, cosa ci dicono le scienze umane e sociali?
No full textIn questo libro abbiamo esplorato l’ambiguo, giocoso e problematico rapporto tra Giacomo Casanova e il mondo della spiritualità, dell’esoterismo e della religione in generale. La dimensione religiosa è stata messa in secondo piano dagli studiosi di Casanova, probabilmente per una serie di ragioni: in primis, perché lo stesso Casanova non prendeva sempre sul serio le questioni religiose, rendendo la stessa tematica meno degna di nota agli occhi degli studiosi di storia delle religioni; in secondo luogo, perché la concezione di una spiritualità materiale, sensuale, libertina ed eterodossa è stata per decenni considerata come irrazionale, irrilevante e marginale e infine perché la messa in scena del dubbio, dell’irriverenza, dello scherzo riguardo il sacro è stata spesso considerata come prettamente secolare, riducendo la complessità e le incongruenze degli esseri umani . Questo libro mira non solo a mettere in risalto le dimensioni esoteriche, spirituali e religiose di Casanova, ma anche a contribuire allo studio di una religiosità meno nota, caratterizzata da una certa materialità, irriverenza, inquietudine, sensualità e che spesso si esprime attraverso l’arte

No full textWith the recent growth of Korean Studies programs and the establishment of new graduate courses, Chinese character (hanja) education has come to be recognized anew as one of the key tasks in Korean language education. Against this backdrop, this study analyzes the results of a two-year consecutive investigation (2023–2024) involving non-character-background learners in Europe. Data were collected through surveys, quizzes, and follow-up questionnaires administered after hanja learning. The findings reveal several key points: learners generally perceive hanja education as necessary and important, yet often view it as irrelevant to beginner-level Korean or everyday conversation; they struggle to distinguish Sino-Korean vocabulary from native Korean words, particularly monosyllabic ones; and while meaning inference is facilitated when Sino-Korean words correspond directly to English or the learner’s native language, it becomes difficult when words have extended semantic ranges requiring cultural or historical knowledge. The study further highlights the risk of learners forming entrenched misconceptions if semantic networks of hanja are not properly presented, underscoring the need for careful pedagogical strategies that emphasize accurate meaning transmission and effective presentation of high-frequency Sino-Korean lexical networks. Ultimately, this research suggests that although learners acknowledge the usefulness of hanja for Korean language acquisition, challenges such as mother-tongue interference, semantic extension, and preconceived notions about the role of hanja in advanced vocabulary require sustained attention in future pedagogical approaches
