    The “Assessorato Territorio e Ambiente” of the Regional Sicilian Government and the “Ingegneria e Tecnologie Agro Forestali” (ITAF) Department, Palermo University, have been involved in a study (D.R.S. N° 473) concerning the occurrence of environmental pollution by heavy metals in the "Comprensorio territoriale di Pace del Mela". The involved local administrations (“comuni”) in the area of interest are: Condrò, Gualtieri Sicaminò, Milazzo, Pace del Mela, S.Filippo del Mela, Santa Lucia del Mela, San Pier Niceto. Naturalistic aspects and landscape relevance of the “Pace del Mela” area is supported by the existence of three Natural Reserves, twelve Sites of Community Interest (S.I.C.) and a Zone with Special Protection (Z.P.S.). Finally, the proximity of the Etna National Park should be also appropriately considered. The study, started on 8th June 2005, has been concluded one year later after having evaluated all the required polluting elements in selected places of the given land both during the wet and dry seasons. The primary target of this biomonitoring study is the knowledge of the possible environmental pollution by heavy metals in the “Comprensorio del Mela”, mainly through the use of biomonitors of “air quality”. The transport of heavy metals to the studied territory can be attributed to a local winds, to atmospheric circulation and to the interaction of these aspects with the morphology of the territory. In our study, the main network of grid sites has been appropriately sub-divided as follows: GIS (Geographical Information System) technologies have been used for data managing, beginning from the data of each simple sites a general georeferencing database has been obtained which contains information of the air pollution in the studied areas. This database has been imported in a GIS software, in order to produce a GIS In order to know the environmental alteration of the studied area and to interpret the spatial distribution of each chemical element, Natural/Alteration maps and isoconcentration maps have been created. Project of the air pollution in the territory of “Comprensorio del Mela”. For the interpretation of the data, two-dimensional zone maps were drawn using the GIS program ArcView 8.3 (ESRI- Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc.-), that with a specific extension (3D ANALYST) which transforms discrete data into a continuous

    El origen de la nuda vida: política y lenguaje en el pensamiento de Giorgio Agamben

    Although Homo sacer is the best known book by Giorgio Agamben to the contemporary political reflection, he begins since 1968 an uninterrupted query about language`s being. Therefore it`s possible suppose his philosophy of language is the better way to understand Agamben`s political conception. In the paper below it`s considered the comparison between the books of Homo sacer`s project, some Agamben`s coeval articles and essays about language of the seventies and eighties. In his political researches, where the crucial ideas are presented, are used similarities with what he has written in the previous years about language faculty. Moreover the main guidelines of Agamben`s thought making evident how he proposes his own philosophy of language as a model to overcome metaphysics and biopolitics devices. In this regard it will be analyzed the link between the concepts of Voice and Bare Life which represent the core of his philosophical proposal. ;Aunque Homo sacer es el libro más conocido de Giorgio Agamben dedicado a la reflexión política contemporánea, el autor, a partir de 1968, comenzó una investigación ininterrumpida sobre la naturaleza del lenguaje. Por lo tanto es posible suponer que la filosofía del lenguaje de Agamben es la mejor manera de entender su pensamiento político. En el artículo siguiente se comparan los libros del proyecto de Homo sacer, algunas publicaciones de la misma temporada del autor y sus ensayos sobre el lenguaje de los años setenta y ochenta. En sus investigaciones políticas, Agamben presenta sus ideas fundamentales y utiliza similitudes acerca de la facultad del lenguaje, concepto ya analizado en años anteriores. Por otra parte, los principales lineamientos del pensamiento de Agamben evidencian cómo él propone su propia filosofía del lenguaje como modelo para superar la metafísica y dispositivos biopolíticos. En este sentido, se analizará la relación entre los conceptos de la Voz y de la Nuda Vida que representan el núcleo de su propuesta filosófica

    «E quel di Portogallo». Note sul biasimo dantesco a D. Dinis

    No full text
    Tra i potenti europei apostrofati in Par. XIX compare anche D. Dinis, re portoghese contemporaneo di Dante. Le ragioni di questa stigmatizzazione, rivolta peraltro ad un sovrano positivamente ricordato, sono poco chiare, tanto più che Dante non sembra avere precisa contezza del Portogallo coevo. Della parabola del sovrano portoghese, di cui si fornisce una breve ricognizione, il contributo mira a porre in rilievo gli elementi che, alla luce dell’impianto ideologico e morale rappresentato nella Commedia e in specie in Par. XIX, possono giustificare sotto il profilo storico-politico la riprovazione dantesca, non dunque generica tessera affastellata nella rassegna dei cattivi regnanti europei. Al fine di produrre un più solido impianto di ipotesi sulla conoscenza che Dante ebbe di D. Dinis e sul dissenso che ne poté maturare, si prendono in considerazione le ascendenze del re e della moglie, la santa D. Isabel, ricche di personalità note al lettore dantesco, alcune azioni diplomatiche del sovrano (rilevante quella relativa alla preservazione dei Templari in Portogallo), spesso antitetiche alle prospettive politiche auspicate dal poeta, nonché l’anacronistica ed amorosa produzione trobadorica dello stesso Dinis.Among the European sovereigns criticised in Par. XIX, D. Dinis, king of Portugal in the days of Dante, is also listed. The reasons for this criticism, addressed to a king who is otherwise positively remembered, are uncertain, especially since Dante seems to have no clear knowledge about contemporary Portugal. Within the biography of the Portuguese king, of which a brief survey is provided, the paper aims to emphasize the elements that, in light of the ideological and moral system represented in the Commedia and especially in Par. XIX, could justify Dante’s censure as part of this scheme, and not as a generic element in the review of bad European monarchs. In order to produce a more robust scheme of hypotheses on the knowledge that Dante could have about D. Dinis and the dissent that could grow towards his political and intellectual figure, the paper takes into account the ancestors of the king and his wife, St. Isabel (amongst whom are many personalities well known to the reader of Dante), some diplomatic actions of the sovereign (especially concerning the preservation of the Templars in Portugal), which are often antithetical to the political perspectives supported by the poet, and the anachronistic troubadour poems written and encouraged by Dinis himself

    L’esperienza di job shadowing nel progetto Urban Regeneration Mix nella città di Braga

    Nell'ambito del progetto Urban Regeneration Mix del programma europeo URBACT, sono stata invitata come rappresentante dell'Università di Bologna a partecipare al Jobshadowing organizzato dalla città di Braga, il partner di progetto portoghese. Tre giorni ricchi di appuntamenti e incontri tra laboratori per ragazzi e visite ai centri culturali di Braga, in cui ho avuto modo di intervistare i direttori artistici e gli organizzatori. Ho constatato che le politiche culturali della città, con azioni a diversi livelli, dalla rigenerazione di edifici in spazi culturali all'attivazione di programmi di avvicinamento all'arte per i giovani, sono congiunte alla trasformazione di Braga come meta culturale
