The dolor, ira and Vengeance Cycle in Paul the Deacon’s Historia Langobardorum
No full textThis essay explores the role and meaning of the emotional term dolor in the scenarios of vengeance represented by the Lombard scholar Paul the Deacon (c.720–799) in his work Historia Langobardorum. First, after contextualising the work and analysing the concept of aristocratic honour and vengeance outlined by the author in the text, this essay examines the episodes in which dolor is associated with revenge. Second, starting from the work itself, the paper constructs the emotional script of dolor, namely the little scenario that a character plays out – as sequences of events, actions and social interactions – when he or she feels this emotion. Finally, it examines how the author evaluates dolor positively or negatively in relation to social and gender norms

L'esperienza del dolore nei testi di Paolo Diacono: lo studio di un'emozione.
No full textLa presente tesi tratta del ruolo dell’esperienza dolorosa all’interno della vita e delle opere dell’autore longobardo Paolo Diacono (c.720 – c.799) e analizza, attraverso un'analisi linguistico-pragmatica e una riflessione ermeneutica, le diverse concettualizzazioni, modalità espressive e funzioni attribuite al dolore in relazione ai personaggi coinvolti sulla scena, agli scopi dell’autore e agli obbiettivi dei suoi committenti. L’elaborato si pone inoltre lo scopo di comprendere se Paolo Diacono comunicò e concettualizzò il dolore nello stesso modo per ogni sua opera, oppure se fece ricorso a espressioni e rappresentazioni specifiche rispondenti a diversi pubblici di riferimento. Infine, si intende indagare quale ruolo rivesta il dolore degli altri all’interno delle opere di Paolo, quali categorie di individui fossero riconosciute come degne di compassione e aiuto e, soprattutto, per quali motivi.This thesis examines the role of pain in the life and works of the Lombard author Paul the Deacon (c.720 - c.799). Through a linguistic, pragmatic, and hermeneutic analysis, it explores the different conceptualizations, modes of expression, and functions attributed to pain in relation to three factors: the characters involved in the scene, the author's aims, and the goals of his patrons. The research also attempts to understand whether Paul the Deacon used the same expressions and representations to communicate and conceptualize pain in his works, or if he tailored them to different target audiences. Additionally, the thesis investigates the role of the pain of others in Paul’s works, which categories of individuals he recognized as worthy of compassion and help, and why

No full textDr. Nicole Maurantonio, Associate Professor of Rhetoric & Communication Studies and American Studies, discusses her book, Confederate Exceptionalism: Civil War Myth and Memory in the Twenty-First Century, published recently by the University Press of Kansas. In a time of contentious debates and protests surrounding the removal of Confederate monuments, this book considers how so-called “neo-Confederates” can distance themselves from the actions of white supremacists while also clinging to the very symbols and narratives that tether the Confederacy to histories of racism and oppression in the United States
Manon Labrecque : Corps en chute
