Ode laica per Chibok e Leah
No full textThe volume contains two short poems by Nigerian Nobel Laureate Wole Soyinka -- "No, He Said!", dedicated to Nelson Mandela, from the Author's 1988 well-known collection "Mandela's Earth and Other Poems" and the recent "Mandela Comes to Leah", written purposely for this volume -- and the Author's 2019 long epic poem "A Humanist Ode to Chibok, Leah" denouncing all forms of fundamentalism and fanaticism as opposed to secular humanism. Soyinka pays tribute to the girls abducted in Chibok and to 15 year-old Leah Sharibu, one of the 108 girls abducted in 2018 from Dapchi, comparing her firm refusal to renounce her faith to Nelson Mandela's refusal to compromise his moral stance on Apartheid while held captive on Robben Island. The poetry in the book appears en face in the original English and in the Italian translation by Alessandra Di Maio, who also curated the volume and wrote a short introduction. The Preface by the Author to the Italian volume appears only in Di Maio's translation
Tradurre la Nigeria in Sicilia: Il Sommo Soyinka
No full textThe chapter linguistically and culturally frames the writing of the celebrated Nigerian Nobel laureate Wole Soyinka, whose works the author has translated into Italian. Examining Soyinka’s production in the context of Nigerian English-language literature, she reflects on how translating is a linguistic as much as a cultural process. Focusing on the Nobel Laureate’s post-exile literary production, the essay highlights the context and the techniques used in the translation of his mature poem, A Humanist Ode for Chibok, Leah (2019), which addresses pressing contemporary social and political themes through a poetic form inspired by ancient models

Multivariate Polarimetric Bistatic Clutter Statistical Analysis
No full textThis paper deals with the analysis of simultaneously collected co- and cross-polarized bistatic sea-clutter returns with special emphasis on their representation as a Spherically Invari-ant Random Process (SIRP). The study is conducted by using appropriate testing procedures involving the complex envelope of the measured data that provide both first- and higher-order compatibility conditions. The results highlight that the SIRP model is a good candidate for the representation of bistatic coherent clutter, and usually the coherence time of the SIRP texture is longer than that in the monostatic case.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Microwave Sensing, Signals & System
