Engendrer le « génos ». Insolites familles de bois dans le théâtre de Gigio Brunello
No full textGigio Brunello, auteur et marionnettiste italien contemporain, dépasse dans son œuvre les traditions et caractères des masques de la marionnette à gaine traditionnelle (Arlecchino, Balanzone, Brighella,...) afin de donner à ses personnages une personnalité propre, une autonomie et une filiation imaginaire jouant avec le réel, les caractérisant indépendamment du bagage culturel qu'ils portent et représentent. Au gré des pièces, les personnages traversent des phases de vie dans lesquels ils deviennent les protagonistes de leurs propres histoires.

Youth unemployment: reassessing the role of education and labour market institutions. A comparative analysis across countries and generations
No full textYouth have been increasingly at the centre of the public debate of the recent years, complicit the economic crisis that hit them disproportionally and almost six years later still exhibit its persistent effects. The roots of this phenomenon go back far beyond the crisis, being structurally embedded in the cultural, economic and institutional characteristics of the countries. Young people hard times are often compared (and sometimes opposed) to the conditions of other generations, that, though strongly affected by the economic crisis, are proving to be more resilient, given a (generally) stronger “safety net” provided by greater stability and protection. Despite the great consensus existing on the fact that larger activity and employment rates for all age groups are beneficial for the society as a whole, some recent policy proposals in Europe, alarmed by the risk of a “lost generation”, seem a revival of the old “lump sum of labour” theory predicting youth and old as substitute and competitors for a fixed amount of jobs in the labour market. In this view, the present contribution aims at reassessing the institutional determinants of youth unemployment in the industrialised countries of the OECD from 1980 to 2009, in order to shed light on the long-term institutional factors hindering (or vice versa improving) youth labour market outcomes, with a focus, besides traditional labour market institutions, on the role of school-to-work transition. Empirically, the research stresses the importance of filling the skills and productivity gap by experiencing work during studies, especially by means of training contracts. Moreover, in view of the above mentioned recent policy proposals calling for job sharing between young and elderly, this contribution aims at reassessing at the comparative level the nature of the youth/old relationship in the labour market, with the aim of testing if evidence of the “boxed economy” prediction has to be found or if such dualism is only imaginary

No full textFragments, spolia and remains. Emotional antiquities in Rome between the Early Modern and Renaissance era
No full textThe chapter describes the feeling aroused by the fragment of ancient ruins in Rome, between the end of the Middle Ages and the Early Modern era. The feeling of amusement experienced when coming in contact with ancient fragments was different, and encountering ruins and fragments – or even reusing pieces of architectures, through the so-called spolia – evoked emotions, mainly but not exclusively connected to the idea of common identity and reconnection with the ancient power of the Empire. The first section of the chapter will look at how these responses were influenced by changes in time perception, which resulted in feelings of temporal distance, awe and respect towards the antiquities. However, in this process, negative feelings and disruptive building practices will also be observed to contrast the sheer appreciation of ruins and fragments expressed in literature. After displaying some examples of emotions aroused by the ancient fragments, in the last section, the example of the Septizodium and its dismembering in the sixteenth century will reveal all the complex stages of emotional approaches towards fragments between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance
Potenzialità della fotografia e restauro del moderno
No full textIl contributo analizza l'uso della fotografia storica nei restauri dell'architettura modernista - e nello specifico caso delle colonie marine in Italia - e dei rischi connessi all'uso di tale documentazione come unico ausilio nel realizzare una sintesi delle fasi costruttive e di modifica delle strutture, su cui basare il progetto di restauro. Si evidenziano, in tal senso, i rischi di sfociare nel ripristino e la non obiettività del mezzo fotografico

How to signify otherness and diasporic bodies through puppetry. Two dramaturgies by Kossi Efoui
No full textAuthor of various theater plays, French-speaking writer of Togolese origin Kossi Efoui transfers in his texts, relying on the puppet’s medium, his experience of political exile from his native country and statelessness, as well as search for an identity in his adoptive country, France.
Reluctant to embrace a Western view that tends to relegate authors of African origins to an exotic aesthetic, Kossi Efoui puts a complex concept of identity at the center of his dramaturgy.
This chapter is centered on two different texts by Kossi Efoui, "Io (tragédie)" (2006) and "En guise de divertissement" (2013). The latter was conceived as a stage writing together with the puppet theater company Théâtre Inutile, during a collaboration lasting twenty years.
Analyzing the two texts, I aim to demonstrate how the basic themes of Efoui’s dramaturgy - the trauma of exile and the expropriation, on the one hand, and the rehabilitation of a human feeling, of one’s own history and identity, on the other - find their best concretization in the staging carried out with puppets
Antiche macerie, ma pur sempre nuove per spiriti moderni. Metamorfosi e valorizzazione dell’antico nel panorama architettonico della Roma comunale (XIII-XIV secolo).
No full textNel corso della storia umana, il ravvisare in un resto antico l’identità e la memoria collettiva di una comunità ha portato alla compresenza di atteggiamenti di attenzione e momenti distruttivi nei confronti della materia.
Eppure, in questo processo altalenante, risultano più evidenti dei momenti nodali nei quali l’esigenza di conservazione di specifici resti e architetture è espressione di una lenta elaborazione, filosofica e socio-economica.
Nella specifica condizione politica e sociale della Roma del XIII e XIV secolo, la presenza pervasiva di resti antichi assume significati differenti nei numerosi contesti di riuso ed embrionale protezione, dalla simbolica appropriazione e rielaborazione del passato a problematiche di tipo economico e di realizzazione tecnica di alcuni specifici elementi costruttivi.
Lo studio diretto degli edifici medievali e l’interpretazione di documenti editi, provenienti sia da raccolte notarili sia da tabularia di enti religiosi, ripercorre il processo di selezione e reimpiego dell’antico, cercando di tratteggiare le motivazioni che hanno determinato il riuso, la conservazione o la distruzione del costruito antico
Colonie marine. Caratteri funzionali e spaziali
No full textIl contributo ripercorre l'evoluzione tipologica e funzionale delle colone marine in Italia, da strutture sanatoriali e assistenziali a strutture di formazione ed educazione dei fanciulli. In particolare, sono analizzati alcuni caratteri principali e la loro variazione tra la fine dell'Ottocento, il periodo di dittatura fascista e le ultime sperimentazioni a seguito della Seconda Guerra Mondiale
