La centralità ritrovata e la legittimazione dei primi Han nei Xinshu di Jia Yi (200-168)
No full textNel 202 a.C. Liu Bang sconfigge Xiang Yu ponendo fine alla guerra civile e si proclama Imperatore della dinastia Han con il nome di Gaozu. I primi decenni del neonato Impero sono un periodo di transizione, caratterizzati da una forte tensione tra il “vecchio” e il “nuovo” sistema politico. Tuttavia, com’è noto, inizialmente gli Han adottano, di fatto, la struttura istituzionale dei Qin, ma ne semplificano alcune regole rituali. Questo momento storico è estremamente importante per la ri-costruzione dello Stato centralizzato sotto l’ègida Han. Con la centralità ritrovata, gli Han devono tuttavia avere il potere legittimato. Secondo la tradizione, i Qin perdono la legittimità per governare a causa di una politica particolarmente dura, e gli Han ascendono al potere garantendo un nuovo ordine e assicurando una nuova stabilità politica e sociale. Quale è l’ideologia alla base della legittimazione politica degli Han? Questo intervento ha come obiettivo l’analisi dell’ideologia, intesa come corpus di idee volte a legittimare la forza politica dominante, come mezzo per l’invenzione dell’Impero Han. L’ideologia è costruita dopo la nascita dell’Impero ed è volta a legittimare il potere acquisito. In particolare si prenderà in esame il ruolo della legge e la depenalizzazione dei reati rivolta all’entourage imperiale. Un testo sarà principale oggetto di analisi, i Xinshu di Jia Yi
The pilgrimage route of Santa Barbara in Sardinia: giving value to landscape for a new conservation perspective
No full textThe mining route of Santa Barbara in Sardinia develops along a complex landscape that puts together stunning scenarios, country churches and old mines. Landscape in South Western Sardinia is a geographical system closely relating the mining culture with a savagely beautiful nature. The pilgrimage route of Santa Barbara represents an evidence of the past with a forward-looking viewpoint and it has many tangible and intangible values. The paper focuses on the relationship between “Man” and “Place” and it shows many levels of complexity. In this perspective, landscape can be examined as interpretation of the cultural transformation of nature with its dynamics and associated functions, including the definition of a collective image of the community with its own perception of values and needs. Through places of worship dedicated to Santa Barbara it is possible to discover the ancient historical paths where miners walked through, old mule trails and railways built in the past to transport the raw minerals, along which is located an extraordinary technical and scientific historical environmental and social heritage. The field of analysis of the paper is the connection between conservation and evolution of these old mining routes turned into a 380 km long pilgrimage route named after the miners’ patron saint. Today it is one of four main pilgrimage routes recognized in Sardinia, with the aim to join the list of European Cultural Routes established by the European Council.
The aim of this research is to investigate the role of new pilgrimage routes in landscape conservation and transformation. Landscape is a big archive of information about its territory, that can be described: the first requirement is a correct reading by a multidisciplinary-oriented interpretation. Pilgrimage routes represent a keystone of a new rural sustainable economy, that is made of tourism, farming, animal husbandry, forest preserve. The rural world represents many cultural values regarding handicraft, building techniques, agricultural and food, old customs in rural areas. Therefore territorial identity has a symbolic nature connected with its function of representing reality as a collective reference point for understanding values and meanings assigned to landscape. These reflections underline the importance of the information management and exchange between insiders and outsiders by the mediation of landscape. The paper aims to build a conceptual framework demonstrating that landscape representation must be related to people’s perception, in order to investigate their role, as dwellers or visitors, in protecting and planning landscape. As a practical result, a shared evaluation of landscape can support decision-making, improve top-down communication and bottom-up participation. This is what makes landscape planning “responsible” as conservation of natural and cultural heritage is the first step for a sustainable human advancement
Cina. la centralità ritrovata. Atti del XII Convegno dell'Associazione Italiana di Studi Cinesi (AISC)

No full textUsing a corpus-driven approach, this paper will address an important aspect of formulaicity in travel journalism, an under-researched genre that has hitherto received scarce attention on the part of academics in general and linguists in particular. In order to compile three 1-million-word comparable corpora, travel articles were downloaded from the online versions of the Guardian, La Repubblica, and Gazeta, to constitute representative samples of the genre in English, Italian and Polish. The texts were annotated for part-of-speech and lemma using TreeTagger. Collocate pairs were then extracted from the annotated data using tailor-made Perl scripts. Subsequently a dispersion filter of presence in at least 20 different texts was applied. The resulting collocate pairs were placed into thematic groups, including: ACCOMMODATION, FOOD, NATURE, SPORT, CULTURE+HISTORY, PEOPLE, PLACE, TRANSPORT, LOGISTICS, PRICE, ACTIVITY, EVALUATION, ROUTE, BUSINESS and TIME. The first five categories were subjected to further analysis, and it emerged that there were notable differences in their relative proportions between the three languages. The results show a number of collocations that could be identified amongst the collocate pairs in the three languages
Gas-Phase Mass-Transfer Resistances at Polymeric Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cells Electrodes: Theoretical Analysis on the Effectiveness of Interdigitated and Serpentine Flow Arrangements
No full textMass transfer phenomena in polymeric electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) electrodes has already been analyzed in terms of the interactions between diffusive and forced flows. It was demonstrated that the whole phenomenon could be summarized by expressing the Sherwood number as a function of the Peclet number. The dependence of Sherwood number on Peclet one Sh(Pe) function, which was initially deduced by determining three different flow regimes, has now been given a more accurate description. A comparison between the approximate and the accurate results for a reference condition of diluted reactant and limit current has shown that the former are useful for rapid, preliminary calculations. However, a more precise and reliable estimation of the Sherwood number is worth attention, as it provides a detailed description of the electrochemical kinetics and allows a reliable comparison of the various geometrical arrangements used for the distribution of the reactants
Tendenze nella morfologia del cinese: la formazione di parola attraverso la rianalisi
No full textIl focus di questo articolo è la tendenza del cinese a formare neologismi attraverso la rianalisi di elementi esistenti. Vengono presentate tre specifiche modalità di formazione di parola. La prima consiste nella reinterpretazione dei singoli costituenti di parole composte esistenti, sfruttando l’ambiguità lessicale dei morfemi. La seconda tendenza consiste nella rianalisi di sillabe di prestiti e ibridi in morfemi, utilizzati poi per la formazione di neologismi. La terza tendenza è quella di formazione di parola con il metodo della meta composizione. Queste modalità di formazione di parola in cinese sono state evidenziate solo recentemente .
I fenomeni discussi in questo articolo appaiono legati alla tendenza largamente prevalente in cinese alla formazione di neologismi composti .
I composti analizzati in questo articolo sono tutti neologismi. Negli ultimi anni infatti sta prevalendo la tendenza a usare i neologismi come dati fondamentali negli studi sulla formazione di parola
