No full textPhotograph of Charlotta Bass, right, with author Albert E. Kahn. The photo was taken at the Los Angeles airport before Bass left on a trip to Europe. Bass holds an autographed copy of Kahn's latest book, "High Treason." In 1939, Kahn became Executive Secretary of the American Council Against Nazi Propaganda and exposed Nazi atrocities in Europe. He later edited "The Hour," a newsletter that uncovered German and Japanese conspiratorial activities in the Americans during World War II. This photograph appeared in the California Eagle

Spazi urbani, prassi sociali e istituti giuridici nella città “elettrica” di Albert Robida
No full textThe book of Albert Robida Le Vingtième Siècle, under the guise of a coming-of-age novel set within a tale of scientific anticipation, actually conceals an accurate and interesting description of the transformations induced on the city of Paris by the new electronic technologies and, above all, the impact of these on social behaviour (and formations) in the urban context. The framework traced by the author thus reveals a technological progress aimed in part at improving living conditions and the progress of the person, but within a general context in which the economic powers seem to be the real directors, profiting widely from the

Padri della Chiesa e scrittori ecclesiastici occidentali (secoli II-XIII)
No full textACOLIT is an authority list of catholic authors (persons or corporate bodies) and of liturgical and religious anonymus works. ACOLIT formulates catalogue entries on the basis of RICA, but also takes into account the Norme per il catalogo degli stampati of the Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana, the AACR2R, the Regeln für die alphabetische Katalogisierung (RAK), the Reglas de catalogación, and the recommendations of IFLA. Three volumes have already been published: Bible, Catholic Church, Roman Curia, Papal State, Vatican, Popes and Antipopes (1997); Catholic religious orders (2000); Liturgical works (2003). The fourth volume is devoted to Fathers of the Church and to Western ecclesiastical Writers (II-XIII centuries). Our point of departure for this authority list are the indices in Migne Patrologia Latina, compared with indices of other authoritatives directories paper and on line (p.e., Personennamen des Mittelalters, Bibliotheca sanctorum, BISLAM: Bibliotheca scriptorum Latinorum medii recentiorisque aevi, Dictionnaire d’histoire et de géographie ecclésiastiques, VIAF). The principal lemma is the Italian form according to the language of the catalogue. The principal entry is followed by variants. For the realization of this authority list we, the editors, had to expend considerable energy in the effort to establish homogeneous forms using bibliographical sources and directories: we realize we may not have always succeeded and would be happy to receive suggestion or further information
Analysis of University Researcher Collaboration Networks using co-authorship
No full textSocial network analysis gives evidence for the connections between groups of individuals. It is these connections that channel flow of information and the sharing of knowledge. As universities move towards more interdisciplinary modes of research and funding, an effective network that links its entire cohort of active researchers is vital. This project conducted a co-authorship network analysis and a path length analysis on a small institutional database. The major advantage of our analysis over other similar work is that we used author's background details in supporting our analysis and generated co-authorship graphs with authors' names and groups. The network metrics have been compared and contrasted to similar work conducted with large-scale cross-institutional databases in several domains. We found the most of metrics are not affected by the network size and showed that the ECS community is a small-world network with similar knowledge sharing to those communities formed by an entire discipline
Rocking Around Albert Camus : Camus et le rock américain
No full textQuesto articolo si propone di esplorare l’interesse che la nozione di ibridazione può assumere in uno studio dei rapporti tra letteratura e canzone. Il caso scelto è quello del primo album del gruppo rock americano dei Titus Andronicus, The Airing of Grievances, che tesse numerosi legami con l’opera di Albert Camus. Tali legami nutrono la narrazione che prende forma nell’album: il racconto fittiziamente autobiografico di Patrick Stickles, autore delle canzoni e leader della band. Le riprese dei personaggi di Sisifo e Meursault, in particolare, aiutano il musicista a costruire il proprio alter ego fittizio. Dopo aver analizzato il terreno pop-filosofico su cui Stickles fonda il suo racconto, si proporranno degli strumenti di analisi ibridi, a cavallo tra la transtestualità e la semiotica della musica pop. Ciò permetterà di studiare le riprese dei personaggi camusiani in tre canzoni dell’album: «Joset of Nazareth’s Blues», «No Future Part II: The Day After No Future», «Albert Camus». In tal modo, si potranno analizzare i processi d’ibridazione che strutturano l’identità estetica del cantautore.This article aims to explore the value that the notion of hybridisation can hold in a study of the interplay between literature and song. It focuses on the first album by the American rock band Titus Andronicus, The Airing of Grievances, which establishes a dialogue with Albert Camus’s works. This process informs the story told in the album, that is a fictional autobiography by Patrick Stickles, the author of the songs and leader of the band. His reinterpretations of Sisyphus and Meursault in particular help him structure his fictional alter ego. First, we will analyse the pop-philosophical background that supports Stickles’s narrative. Then, we will propose some analytical tools that hybridise elements of transtextuality and aspects of pop music semiotics. This will allow us to study Stickles’s reinterpretations of Albert Camus’s characters in three songs from The Airing of Grievances: “Joset of Nazareth’s Blues”, “No Future Part II: The Day After No Future”, and “Albert Camus”. In this way, we will be able to analyse the process of hybridisation that structures Stickles’s aesthetic identity.Cet article se propose d’interroger l’intérêt que la notion d’hybridation peut acquérir dans une étude des rapports entre littérature et chanson. Le cas choisi est celui du premier album du groupe rock américain Titus Andronicus, The Airing of Grievances, qui tisse de nombreux liens avec l’œuvre d’Albert Camus. Ce dialogue nourrit la narration qui prend forme dans l’album : la fable autobiographique de Patrick Stickles, auteur des chansons et leader du groupe. Les reprises des personnages de Sisyphe et Meursault, en particulier, aident le rocker à construire son alter ego fictionnel. Cette étude présente d’abord un examen du terrain pop-philosophique sur lequel Stickles fonde sa narration. Ensuite, elle propose des outils d’analyse hybrides, à cheval entre la transtextualité et la sémiotique de la pop, et les utilise pour étudier les reprises des personnages camusiens dans trois chansons de l’album : « Joset of Nazareth’s Blues », « No Future Part II : The Day After No Future » et « Albert Camus ». Cela permet de faire émerger les processus d’hybridation qui structurent l’identité esthétique du chanteur

The sense of a beginning : Bakhtinian dialogic criticism on 'the gospel' in Mark.
No full textContemporary literary approaches have caused paradigm shifts in Biblical Studies in the last two decades as it appears in a great deal of Markan studies using narrative, reader-response, deconstructive, feminist, and new historicist approaches. However, literary studies on the Gospel of Mark have not taken into account theoretical questions underlying those approaches. As a result biblical critics are driven by new trends without ever having a chance to examine the critical baggage of the approaches. Consequently, there is a gap of communication between the old and the new one. Therefore this thesis is an attempt to meet the need of enhancing the quality of critical endeavour in biblical studies. In the light of most recent competing critical theories of literature, the first contribution of this thesis is the methodological finding that Bakhtinian dialogic criticism contains the most profound philosophical and practical foundations for solving some crucial theoretical problems in contemporary literary theories. It is a critique to a Saussurian linguistic system of language which becomes the very foundation of modern and postmodern literary criticism. Bakhtinian literary theory shifts the foundation of literary criticism on linguistic signs into the creative activity of the socio-cultural production of human communication. The shift into socio-cultural reality of language communication makes the notion of 'genre' very important to unlock the problem of text and context in literary studies. Since the Gospel of Mark has fascinated most literary critics in Biblical Studies, the problem of 'genre' of this gospel is chosen as the focus of this study. Secondly, as no agreement is reached as to what 'genre' the Gospel of Mark belongs, this thesis makes its contribution to the discussion by locating the problem of 'genre' of Mark in the context of genre theories and argues that the Bakhtinian suggestion to find genre in the socio-cultural sphere by analysing artistic intercourse between narrative agents in Mark has freed the competing analysis from the unresolved problem between the kerygmatic (content oriented) approach and the analogical (form oriented) approach. To achieve finding 'genre' in the socio-cultural sphere, this thesis focuses on Bakhtinian analysis of the process of artistic intercourse between narrative agents. The narrative communicative interrelationships between narrative agents is constructed in this thesis as a 'stereophonic' Bakhtinian model of dialogic communication. This model is an original contribution of this thesis for revising the traditional two dimensional model of narrative communication. Based on this dialogical model of communication, a special role is given to the Bakhtinian 'author-creator' in the realization process of genre through the interaction of polyphonic voices. Through the interaction of voices of the author-artist and the hero we are led to discover a relatively stable type of portraying and controlling reality in Mark, known as the genre of Roman 'satire'. The closest literary affinity is Satyrica by Petronius. This narrative strategy of 'satire' in Mark has its root in the prophetic discourse of the Old Testament which is saturating the speech of the narrator, John the Immerser, the centurion, the people, and even Jesus. Finally, the whole search for Markan 'genre' culminates in the analysis of the realization of genre through the analysis of Bakhtinian chronotope. The reality of the genre of Mark is its social reality that is in its role as dpxrj/ 'beginning'. As the Gospel of Mark proclaims itself as 'a beginning', it defines its claim of socio-cultural 'authority' in early Christianity. It is this 'sense of beginning' which enables the narrating and the narrated world of Mark to interact dialogically
Copyright, contratto e accesso alla conoscenza: un’analisi comparata = Copyright, contract and access to knowledge: a comparative analysis.
No full textIl processo di digitalizzazione e lo sviluppo dei media, stravolgendo il paradigma tradizionale del copyright/diritto d’autore conducono a reazioni opposte. Da un lato, estendendo in vario modo l’ampiezza dell’esclusiva autorale favoriscono l’adozione di regole restrittive di accesso e uso dei contenuti; dall’altro, alimentano le logiche di condivisione, specie in alcune aree di produzione del sapere.
Il contratto, pur mutata la propria natura nella dimensione digitale, rappresenta la prima leva per l’affermazione di tali divergenti dinamiche, che, in entrambe le direzioni, riguardano anche la circolazione della conoscenza scientifica. Nel senso dell’apertura, lo strumento negoziale consente di perseguire i principi affermati dal movimento dell’Open Access (OA), abbattendo le barriere economiche e giuridiche all’accesso e utilizzo dei contenuti.
Dal deposito e pubblicazione su archivi istituzionali e disciplinari di opere transitate già attraverso i canali editoriali convenzionali, comunemente definita green road, alla pubblicazione su riviste ad accesso aperto, gold road, il fenomeno si sviluppa dal basso verso l’alto grazie alle dichiarazioni di principio e alle norme informali che hanno sin ora guidato le comunità accademiche nell’affermazione dell’OA. Di recente, tuttavia, i principi dell’OA sono oggetto di attenzione da parte del decisore pubblico che, pur timidamente, ne “impone” l’attuazione a tutte le comunità accademiche. Eppure, il diritto formale non sembra da solo sufficiente: è soltanto il primo tassello di una disciplina organica tesa a definire regole e incentivi per la produzione e la disseminazione della conoscenza scientifica, allo scopo di bilanciare la libertà “accademica” con il diritto di accesso alla conoscenza. = ENGLISH VERSION = Along with a comparative perspective that takes account of the U.S. and Italian law, this work aims to explore the interface between copyright and contract lae in publishing process.
In the current publishing environment, contracts and technology play a dominant role in the exploitation of copyrighted works. Publishers are granted by assignment of all copyright rights to reproduce and publish the work, but also to exercise control over its contents through technological protection measures. At the same time, mass digitization allows libraries and other organizations to make contents available online, which it entails a redefinition of the traditional publishing process and introduces new players to the scene (e.g., Google Books).
Hence, technology proves to be a powerful instrument for the spread of knowledge and it is on this pattern that Open Access (OA) is rapidly gaining ground.
Mostly based on a bottom-up approach that is on soft law, institutional policies and contracts, OA designs a new legal environment targeting the objectives of free accessibility, further distribution, and proper archiving of publications. These aims can be achieved through the creation of new open access business models to publish on OA journals (gold road) or to self-archive in institutional or disciplinary repositories works that have been originally published in conventional journals (green road).
However, in order for OA to be fully developed it is necessary to devise a principled and feasible approach to the dissemination of scholarly works against the current social, economic and legal background.
Indeed, the importance of OA is steadily recognized by legislators who integrate OA provisions into their legal system. This is an innovation of great significance, which was first fostered in the USA, and then extended in some European countries such as Italy and Germany in the European framework. Nevertheless, considering the different law systems, the formal law need to be combined with national strategies and institutional policies providing adequate incentives to the authors, while also promoting academic freedom and the right to knowledge access
