    Recoding world literature : libraries, print culture, and Germany's pact with books /

    No full text
    From the current vantage point of the transformation of books and libraries, B. Venkat Mani presents a historical account of world literature. By locating translation, publication, and circulation along routes of "bibliomigrancy"--The physical and virtual movement of books - Mani narrates how world literature is coded and recoded as literary works find new homes on faraway bookshelves. Mani argues that the proliferation of world literature in a society is the function of a nation's relationship with print culture - a Faustian pact with books. Moving from early Orientalist collections, to the Nazi magazine Weltliteratur, to the European Digital Library, Mani reveals the political foundations for a history of world literature that is at once a philosophical ideal, a process of exchange, a mode of reading, and a system of classification. Shifting current scholarship's focus from the academic to the general reader, from the university to the public sphere, 'Recoding World Literature' argues that world literature is culturally determined, historically conditioned, and politically charged.From the current vantage point of the transformation of books and libraries, B.

    L’Autrice esamina la questione di legittimità costituzionale dell’art. 47-ter, comma 1-ter ord. pen. nella parte in cui detta previsione di legge non prevede l’applicazione della detenzione domiciliare anche nelle ipotesi di grave infermità psichica sopravvenuta durante l’esecuzione della pena.

    The strange case of the Turkish and Venetian judges in eighteenth-century Mani wall paintings

    Full text link
    Investigating church wall paintings in Mani, Greece, the author identified a common theme of the Ainoi, the graphic interpretation of Psalms 148-150. Within this scheme there is often a specific depiction of the 'Judges of the Earth' as an Ottoman judge and a Venetian nobleman. This depiction is unique to Mani and is restricted to the mid-eighteenth century and those areas of Mani dominated by the rule of the kapetanoi. The paintings allude to the lack of established legal systems in that period of Mani's history and refer back to times of stable law under Ottoman and Venetian rule
