Mettre en scène le conte
No full textAprès « Mettre en scène l’événement » à partir du cas de la pièce 11 septembre 2001 de Michel Vinaver, ce deuxième hors-série aspire à ouvrir un espace de réflexion autour du conte en scène, à partir de l’étude de la réécriture théâtrale de Cendrillon par l’auteur-metteur en scène Joël Pommerat (2011). Le choix d’inscrire Cendrillon, troisième conte réécrit par Pommerat, au programme du Baccalauréat option théâtre (2013-2015) nous a paru symptomatique d’un changement de regard porté sur les contes et leurs usages. Si, d’un point de vue méthodologique, on fait l’hypothèse que Cendrillon de Pommerat est un exemple représentatif d’une tendance plus vaste, que nous apprend cette œuvre des nouvelles alliances entre contes et arts de la scène contemporaine ? Qu’en est-il des nouveaux usages du conte en scène, et plus particulièrement de Cendrillon dans le cadre d’une formation au théâtre pour futurs bacheliers ? Ce dossier se développera au fil de publications invitées « en continu » à le compléter dans les mois à venir
Il modello BIM per la valorizzazione dell’architettura moderna. Il caso Olivetti./BIM model for enhanching modern architecture. Olivetti’s case
No full textLa ricerca riguarda la sperimentazio-ne di nuovi sistemi di rappresentazione del progetto come veicolo per la comuni-cazione dell’architettura moderna e dei suoi documenti, con l’obiettivo specifico di valorizzare l’eredità culturale lascia-ta dall’imprenditore Adriano Olivetti e dalla sua azienda attraverso un modello Bim-oriented.
Oggetto della sperimentazione è il ‘Centro Studi e Esperienze’, edificio dall’alto valore simbolico per l’industria, progettato da Eduardo Vittoria e forte-mente voluto da Adriano Olivetti, che in-trodusse l’articolazione spaziale di tipo organico all’interno della cittadella ra-zionalista d’Ivrea.The research concerns the testing of new systems of representation of the project as a tools for communication of modern archi-tecture and its documents, in order to enhan-ce, with the use of a model Bim-oriented, the cultural heritage left by Adriano Olivetti and his company.
The object of the trial is the ‘Centro Studi e Esperienze’ designed by Eduardo Vittoria and that really wanted by Adriano; it is a bu-ilding with a huge symbolic significance for the company, which introduced the organic articulation of the space within up to this time the rationalist Ivrea

Stages for the More Sustainable Farm
No full textCurrently, agricultural farm units are faced with a double and most times contradictory challenge, in order to be successful: on the one hand the invested capital has to be profitable and the economic performance has to be maximised. On the other hand, given the socio-environmental situation, it is necessary to preserve and to protect the environment and natural resources. Given the potential conflict of the two aims, since the satisfaction of one implies the underperformance of the other (and vice versa), the question then is: which is the solution to choose? We intend, in this work, to formulate a farm plan with the purpose of reconciling the criteria of environmental sustainability with that of economic competitiveness. For this achievement we proceed to the comparative study of sustainability of different groups of farms identified in the study area (first evaluation cycle) through MESMIS (“Marco para la Evaluación de Sistemas de Manejo de Recursos Naturales Mediante Indicadores de Sustentabilidad” - Framework for Evaluation of Natural-Resource Systems Handling through Sustainability Indicators) methodology, that allowed to select the more sustainable group of farms. Based on the found potentialities and weakness on these production systems, we stepped to the planning of a production unit of bovine meat, which obeys simultaneously to economic and environmental objectives, using Multicriteria Decision. We finished the work with the sustainability evaluation between groups of farms identified previously and the planned farms (second evaluation cycle), based, again, in the MESMIS methodology, to confirm (or not) the greatest sustainability of the last ones. Analyses of the results allow us to confirm the greatest relative sustainability of the planned farm, for the diverse traced scenarios.Decision taking, planning, sustainability, Environmental Economics and Policy, Farm Management,

Reescrita de si pelo outro: identidade portuguesa e paródia em Deus-dará, de Alexandra Lucas Coelho / Rewriting oneself through the other: Portuguese identity and parody in Deus-dará, by Alexandra Lucas Coelho
No full textResumo: O artigo aponta o modo como o romance Deus-dará de Alexandra Lucas Coelho, escritora portuguesa contemporânea, pode ser compreendido como um exercício de renegociação da identidade portuguesa em relação a questões referentes à colonização no Brasil. Mais do que isso, problematiza-se como, por meio da estratégia da paródia no texto ficcional, a autora consegue expressar uma necessidade e possibilidade de se redefinir pelo outro em um movimento contrário ao do discurso colonial – o que também ocorre em suas entrevistas e em suas narrativas de viagens, tais como em Vai, Brasil e Cinco Voltas na Bahia e um beijo para Caetano Veloso. Palavras-chave: identidade portuguesa; paródia; pós-modernismo; escrita portuguesa contemporânea; Alexandra Lucas Coelho. Abstract: The article observes how the novel Deus-dará, by Alexandra Lucas Coelho, a Portuguese contemporary writer consists in an exercise of renegotiation for the Portuguese identity in relation to issues that refer to the colonization process in Brazil. Moreover, this text seeks to show how parody as a fictional literary strategy helps the author in expressing a necessity and a possibility of redefining oneself through the other, in a direction that goes in the opposite way of the colonial speech. This necessity and this possibility also appear in the author’s interviews and travel books, such as Vai, Brasil and Cinco Voltas na Bahia e um beijo para Caetano Veloso, which will also be mentioned in this article.Keywords: Portuguese identity; parody; post-modernism; Portuguese contemporary writing; Alexandra Lucas Coelho

Athaliah and Alexandra: Gender and Queenship in Josephus [Author Accepted Manuscript]
No full textAthaliah and Alexandra were the only two women to rule as queens of Judah/Judaea in their own right and both women’s reigns are reported in Josephus’ writings. Despite their uniqueness, however, Athaliah and Alexandra are rarely compared in scholarship; the former is usually dismissed, and focus centred on the latter. This article contends that there are historical similarities between the two, but literary differences. Josephus could have referred to Athaliah or used elements of her portrayal in his presentation of Alexandra but does not, creating the impression that Alexandra was completely different to her predecessor. It may be instructive, therefore, to consider why Josephus literarily isolates the queens and what this means for his interpretation of Alexandra
