    openIl presente lavoro di tesi consiste nell’analisi linguistica e stilistica del Paradiso degli Alberti, opera dell’autore Giovanni Gherardi da Prato composta a partire dal 1426. L’opera è composta da cinque libri che comprendono nove novelle; essendo un’opera lunga e che rievoca diversi generi letterari (come il romanzo o la raccolta di novelle), l’obiettivo è quello di analizzare la lingua utilizzata da Giovanni Gherardi da Prato. Infatti, dopo una breve descrizione dell’autore e dell’opera (inserendola nel contesto storico-temporale) i capitoli si soffermano sulla fonologia, sulla morfologia e sulla sintassi. Viene infine descritto lo stile dell’opera prima e delle novelle poi, comparando quest’ultime per evidenziare le somiglianze e le differenze tra di esse.The present thesis consists of linguistic and stylistic analysis of Il Paradiso degli Alberti, the work of the author Giovanni Gherardi da Prato, composed from 1426. The work consists of five books that include nine novellas; being a long work that evokes different literary genres (such as the novel or the novella collection), the goal is to analyze the language used by Giovanni Gherardi da Prato. In fact, after a brief description of the author and the work (placing it in historical-temporal context), the chapters focus on phonology, morphology, and syntax. Finally, the style of the work first and the novellas later is described, comparing the latter to highlight the similarities and differences between them

    Adding Cycles into the Neoclassical Growth Model

    No full text
    We propose a stochastic Solow growth model where a cyclical component is added to the total factor productivity process. Theoretically, an important feature of the model is that its main equation takes a state space representation where key parameters can be estimated via an unobserved component approach without involving capital stock measures. In addition, the dynamic properties of the model are mostly unaffected by the newly introduced cyclical component. Empirically, our novel framework is consistent with secular U.S. empirical evidence

    No full text
    El presente estudio presupone que la novela Paradiso de Lezama Lima, no es sólo un texto narrativo, sino que en él se entrecruzan otros géneros, como la lírica y el ensayo. Partiendo de las ideas y símbolos recurrentes en esta obra, Carlos Javier Morales nos explica la visión del mundo de Lezama tal como ha quedado expuesta en Paradiso. Al mismo tiempo, este artículo nos ofrece las claves para comprender el tema central y los temas secundarios de esta novela racionalmente tal oscura. This study states that Paradiso, a novel by Lezama Lima, is not just a narrative text, because it contains other literary genres, such as the lyric and the essay. Using the novel's frequently occurring ideas and symbols, the author explains Lezama's world vision. Simultaneously, the article offers keys for understanding the novel's principal and secondary subjects, which are rationally very obscure

    Reading Lezama’s Paradiso

    No full text
    This book focuses on the novel Paradiso of Cuban author José Lezama Lima (1910-1976), and in particular, on the protagonist José Cemí. Lezama declared that Cemí’s development throughout the novel can be viewed in three distinct phases: the first being the ‘placentario’ world of family protection, the second being Cemí’s awakening to the exterior world and the subsequent friendships made, and the third being his eventual encounters with Oppiano Licario. Cemí’s progression, and his growing ability to interpret and create texts, is investigated as analogous to the reader’s progression to the symbolic dimension of the novel. In a similar fashion, the connection between Cemí’s ‘guide’ Licario, and the author Lezama is investigated

    Lo barroco lezamesco en Paradiso

    In this thesis I argue that José Lezama Lima\u27s Paradiso is unique among Latin-American novels of the 1960s because it is a hybrid of literary genres - narrative and essay, as well as a poetic system. Through an open literary framework, the author explores the essence of cubanía though language that is both colloquial and elaborate, both devoted to traditions and aiming for transgressions: a novel that reaches for the pinnacle of neobaroque prose. To sustain my argument, I have performed an exhaustive exegesis of my primary text, as well as extensive external research in secondary texts of the highest canonical reputation, about the baroque and the neobaroque including the works of Eugene D\u27Ors, Mariano Picón Salas, Severo Sarduy, Guillermo Sucre, Irlemar Chiampi, and the novel in discussion so well examined by Iván González Cruz, Julio Cortázar, and the sister of the author, Eloísa Lezama Lima, among others. I have considered broadly the features and peculiarities that cause Paradiso to excel as a novel, always keeping in mind Lezama Lima\u27s distinctiveness as a writer of ironies implicit in the discourse of Latin-American otherness. In Paradiso, this discourse of copy and model, as well as of revenge on the dominant metropolitan center--all within the surroundings of a paradoxical challenge to European baroque patterns--takes root by means of a seldom-expressed and playful hybridism unparalleled in twentieth-century Spanish literature. My argument operates from the broad to the specific, first by defining and explaining, sometimes in dissenting terms, the baroque, its historical evolution and Spanish roots, its arrival in Spanish America, its new identity when synthesized with native traditions there, and its neo-baroque profile in the twentieth century. Finally we arrive at a meeting with el Señor Barroco , Lezama Lima, himself, as he promenades the paved streets of old Havana under a gigantic, colorful parasol, buffeted by a dancing, tropical breeze, and holding in one hand a volume of Paradiso. He walks absentmindedly until he reaches the esplanade of the malecón. There, he puts aside his book, asks us to approach him, and then confesses to us the impetus of his lifelong obsession to lay the foundation of a poetic system of the universe in Paradiso

    Il paradiso della meccanica: Sinisgalli e Galileo

    No full text
    Nel contributo si affronta il rapporto tra scienza e letteratura a partire da un pezzo che, nel quarto centenario della nascita, Leonardo Sinisgalli dedica a Galileo Galilei e pubblica nella rivista «Successo»; viene considerata l’attenzione che, lungo l’intero arco della sua vicenda intellettuale, il poeta ingegnere lucano rivolge allo scienziato pisano, come testimoniano numerosi riferimenti in prose e versi. Sinisgalli legge originalmente la figura e le opere di Galileo, cogliendo il valore più alto del suo lascito nella strabiliante capacità di analisi piuttosto che nella creazione di una prosa scientifica esemplare
