Le cave di bauxite: patrimonio abbandonato o risorsa ancora viva? Riflessioni teoriche e analisi empiriche
Riflessioni su una decisione di Ulpiano riguardante l'actio furti a favore del fullo ladro: D. 47.2.48.4 (Ulp. 42 ad Sab.)
The paper analyses a decision of Ulpian, contained in D. 47.2.48.4, in which the actio furti is attributed to fullo/thief, and aims at identifying the ratio of Ulpian's opinion. In particular, the reason of the action of fullo is found in a 'causa honesta', namely in the previous relationship with the dominus. While the non-attribution of the action to the commodatary finds its justification in the fact that he had not the detention by the will of the dominus. Moreover, the different solution mentioned in D. 47.2.14.8 and D. 4.9.4 pr., in which the actio furti is denied to the folder, may be explained by the fact that in D. 47.2.48.4, unlike the other two texts, reference is made to a furtum usus. The consequence is that, in this case, the fullo would keep a valid interest for active legitimacy to the actio furti

Ritraduzione e riscoperta. Il caso di George Macdonald
The paper aims at focusing on retranslation practice as an editorial means of rediscovery of literary works, in particular those belonging to the fantastic genre. The selected case studies consist of the Italian translations of Scottish author George MacDonald’s (1824-1905) The Light Princess. Its more recent retranslation was carried out by the publishing house flower-ed, the only publisher currently rediscovering and promoting MacDonald’s fantasy texts in Italy. More specifically, the paper examines how retranslation is helpful in the recovery of this pivotal work, by highlighting MacDonald’s nonconformist treatment of female characters and gender issues. The study will start with a theoretical introduction to the theme of retranslation, followed by a literary analysis of The Light Princess, and then move on to the translational contrastive analysis of some excerpts from the source text and its Italian translations. Ultimately, the present study aims at raising awareness around the promotion and dissemination of classics of the fantastic through the practice of retranslation
