    The pictorial wit of Domenico Tiepolo

    No full text
    This thesis takes a new approach to Domenico Tiepolo’s (1727-1804), Divertimento Per li Regazzi (c.1795-1804), it is arguably the artists most enigmatic graphic work, which features the commedia dell’arte character Pulcinella. The drawings have hitherto been subject to rigorous connoisseurial analysis. Indeed, in his introduction to ten of the drawings in a catalogue of Italian Eighteenth-Century Drawings in The Robert Lehman Collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, James Byam Shaw states that this particular series of drawings has now become so famous ‘that it is hardly necessary to add to the literature of the series.’1 In my opinion it would be a great pity if future generations of scholars were discouraged by this remark, for I believe the drawings still have much to ‘tell’ the contemporary art historian and would further benefit from increasingly interpretative readings. Previously, scholars have regarded Domenico Tiepolo as an imitator of his father, Giambattista Tiepolo (1696-1770), and interpreted the re-appropriation of motifs in the Divertimento as signs of old age and fatigue. I suggest, on the contrary, that in this series of drawings in particular, Domenico was an innovator. This project carves out new territories within the study of the series in that it focuses on the playful nature of the drawings, and how the suite can be understood in relation to contemporary theory concerning games and play, and ludic musical/improvisatory forms. Additionally, the drawings are discussed as a case history in a now popular emerging dialectic on the late works of aged artists: here I consider how these drawings, often funny, poignant, sensitive and delicate reveal how the elderly painter reconciles himself not only to the passing of his own life and the extinction of his family line but to an entire political, cultural and visual tradition

    Diffusion geometry of multiplex and interdependent systems

    No full text
    Complex networks are characterized by latent geometries induced by their topology or by the dynamics on them. In the latter case, different network-driven processes induce distinct geometric features that can be captured by adequate metrics. Random walks, a proxy for a broad spectrum of processes, from simple contagion to metastable synchronization and consensus, have been recently used, Domenico [Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 168301 (2017)] to define the class of diffusion geometries and pinpoint the functional mesoscale organization of complex networks from a genuine geometric perspective. Here we first extend this class to families of distinct random walk dynamics—including local and nonlocal information—on multilayer networks—a paradigm for biological, neural, social, transportation, and financial systems—overcoming limitations such as the presence of isolated nodes and disconnected components, typical of real-world networks. We then characterize the multilayer diffusion geometry of synthetic and empirical systems, highlighting the role played by different random search dynamics in shaping the geometric features of the corresponding diffusion manifolds

    "The historical stones of Campania: from oblivion to rediscovery", edited by Maurizio de Gennaro, Domenico Calcaterra and Alessio Langella, is a book published by Luciano Publisher, Naples. It has been realized with the contribution of many researchers from the Universities Federico II (Naples) and Sannio (Benevento), with the aim of spreading the knowledge of the building materials used for centuries in the historical architecture of Campania, also in the prospect of enhancing local stones

    A dolgozat fő témája a magyar hadi vezetőkkel kapcsolatos szöveghelyek vizsgálata Domenico da Gravina Chronicon de rebus in Apulia gestis című munkájában. A dolgozat első részében a középkori itáliai történetírás főbb jellemzőinek ismertetésére kerül sor, amelyben külön szó esik az északi- és a dél-itáliai történetírók műveiről. A dolgozat második része bemutatja a szerző forrásait, stílusát, összegyűjti és elemzi a hadi vezetőkkel kapcsolatos passzusokat, illetve a mű narratív struktúrájának és formájának vizsgálata révén új megvilágításba helyezi a nápolyi hadjáratok történetét.N.E.TörténelemMSc/M
