Journey towards the mother : myth, origins and the daughter's desire in the fiction of Angela Carter
No full textThis study examines Angela Carter’s demythologising of origin myths and will
investigate the extent to which her fictions offer viable alternatives that allow for
productive representations of women and gender relations outside patriarchal paradigms.
In the first half of the thesis (Chapters 1-3), I will primarily focus on how several of
Carter’s earlier texts deconstruct existing mythical spaces, particularly the biblical
creation story in Genesis. The Genesis myth is central to socio-historical constructions of
gendered identities, and in itself, central to Carter’s imagination. She repeatedly returns
to this myth in her challenging of the ways in which patriarchal narratives construct
violent relations between self and other, specifically where ‘woman’ is situated as the
repressed other of male desires and fears. Alongside her demythologising of Genesis,
Carter deconstructs Freudian myths of sexual maturation, exposing where these also set
up a relationship of antagonism or enmity between the sexes. Although Chapter One will
explore how Carter attempts to revise these origin myths from a positive stance, Two and
Three will focus on the inherent difficulties faced by the female subject in her struggle
against patriarchal myths and their violent oppression of female autonomy. The second
half of the thesis (Chapters 4-6) will shift to an investigation of how Carter’s later texts
set up both possibilities and challenges for women when attempting to construct their
own narratives of origin. Through her problematising of matriarchal myths and feminist
fantasies of self-creation, Carter emphasises the need for confronting limitations rather
than celebrating transgressions as entirely liberating. The thesis will conclude, however,
with an examination of where Carter’s own attempts at remythologising opens up an
alternative space, or ‘elsewhere’, of feminine desires that allows for a refiguring of the
female subject as well as more reciprocal relations between the sexes

No full textUn inedito di John Bell sull'onda pilota di de Broglie
No full textL'idea dell'onda pilota di de Broglie del 1923 ha costituito uno dei temi fondamentali della ricerca in Meccanica Quantistica, suscitando negli anni a seguire l'interesse e il confronto dei diversi protagonisti del dibattito sui fondamenti di questa teoria. Tra coloro che hanno contribuito alla discussione sulla tematica, John Bell ha in alcuni suoi lavori scientifici espresso la sua favorevole opinione sul modello dell'onda pilota di de Broglie. In questo contributo presentiamo un documento inedito del fisico irlandese, Notes for a history of the pilot wave , in cui è tracciato un progetto di ricostruzione storica del dibattito intorno a tale teoria. Il manoscritto è stato ritrovato tra la documentazione originale e inedita conservata e resa disponibile dalla sig.ra Mary Bell, moglie e collega del fisico irlandese. L’inedito è particolarmente significativo poiché Bell affronta la questione in una prospettiva, quella storica, cercando di offrire un quadro organico delle
riflessioni dei fisici che si erano interrogati sull’argomento, organizzandole cronologicamente e con riferimento alle fonti bibliografiche. In particolare esso permette una ricostruzione storica delle riflessioni di Bell sulle posizioni dei padri fondatori della Meccanica Quantistica circa l'idea di de Broglie, posizioni da loro espresse in occasione dei due eventi che egli reputa più pertinenti alla tematica: la V Conferenza Solvay Électrons et photons nel 1927 e nel 1952 la raccolta di scritti Louis de Broglie, Physicien et Penseur , a cui contribuirono i protagonisti che in quegli anni avevano partecipato al dibattito
Materia-autore = Author-Matter
No full textThe etymology of the word author refers to an act of creation, an act of augmentation, from the Latin verb augere. Author instantiates creation, the expansion of the pre-existing. In 1967 Roland Barthes declared the death of the author in his famous essay to state once more that the crisis is that of the author as a single subjectivity and as a term that condenses prestige, undermined by the de-subjectivation strategies of automatism, fortuity and fragmentation of the historical avant-gardes, as well as by the machinic act and by the reproducibility of the second avant-gardes.
Fifty years after Barthes’ paradigmatic formula, this lack of authorship appears to be a successful brand. The ten- sions between the anomie of matter, the law that establishes authorship and the economy that makes the work pos- sible, invoke discordant perspectives. Artists make the self-destruction of their work the real work, and appeal is made for the demolition of architectures, whether by a recognised author or not, in order to re-design, or better still, re-claim the territory. Artificial intelligence consolidates its logics and its design by progressively shedding human ingenuity. The space of criticism becomes, finally, increasingly ephemeral. However, there is an acceptation of criti- cism that is, rather than an individual ‘signature’, an exploration and explanation of how design makes theory.
The binomial author-matter seeks to mark these tensions and contradictions: the featured term author is main- tained to underline the persistence of that prestigious subjectivity, at the very moment when the rhetoric of “mat- ter as an author” promises other forms of authorship
