    The "development" dilemma in the literary production of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries: Rethinking ideologies across literature

    No full text
    This chapter aims to explore the debate on "development theory" especially embodied in the dichotomy between "civilization" and "barbarism" in the literary production of the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, by reading the ideological and political messages hidden in the most relevant works by classical authors in Latin American and postcolonial Anglophone literature. The chapter is structured into three main sections. Firstly, the author will draw an itinerary across the historical debate on "development", showing approaches and conceptualizations. Secondly, the author will explore the relationship between the political messages and ideological positions of significant authors and their works in the literary production of the selected period. To conclude, the author will set out the most relevant elements that reveal the link between the ideological debate on "development" and the literary production, suggesting new ways of interpretation for future researches

    Μεταβολή. Sulle tracce dell'evento

    No full text
    The event is, according to Plato, a μεταβολή, a turning in the direction of the movement of the universe. He identifies in μεταβολή – between two opposite movements of the cosmos – the principle of all myths of origin. What happens in this μεταβολή? The myth indicates a direction which transcends itself. Plato, ἐξ αλλης αρχῆς (from another principle), points back to the “myth” of the principle of the μεταβολή to explain its importance. What about us today? This work refers to the hermeneutic horizon that opens up on the basis of the proposal of a trinitarian ontology: allowing the event itself to express itself and give itself in its very happening, without wanting to grasp and control the object under consideration. It is, in other words, a form of intelligere that is contemplative rather than objectifying

    Sul principio. Unità e libertà nel mezzo

    No full text
    Il testo affronta la questione del del principio e della libertà. La possibilità di parlare del principio è originariamente segnata dal fatto che di esso si parla stando "nel mezzo"; l'unità che esso manifesta è pur sempre rintracciabile nel "tra" (inizio e fine) che ci è dato di abitare

    Ἐξαίφνης: Platone e la via del ‘non'. A partire da Franco Chiereghin

    The Greek word exaiphnes is a temporal adverb, and is usually translated in Italian with the adjectives istantaneo (instantaneous), improvviso (sudden), or with the substantives attimo (moment or instant). D’improvviso (suddenly) conserves in adverbial form the reference to the adjective, thus emphasizing the ambiguous nature of the reference, which is not per se (kath’hautó). Starting with Plato, this article proposes an investigation of the use of the adverb exaiphnes. The subtitle of the article: the way of negation, wishes to show how negation leads to a moment when the truth suddenly opens up: freed from the chains that bound the prisoner at the bottom of the cave, as soon as he sees things in the sun’s light he recognizes that they are not as he had seen them in the dark, when they were mere images on the cave walls. The not thus, spells out the negation and integrates it

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    D'improvviso. La via del "non", a partire da Platone

    No full text
    Questa via comincia da Platone, dal mito della caverna che, seguendo il “racconto” platonico, mostra la confluenza della “via del non” nell’improvvisa attimalità dell’apertura al vero: liberato dalle catene che lo tenevano legato nel fondo della caverna, il prigioniero, nell’istante in cui vede le cose alla luce del sole, s’accorge che esse sono non così come le vedeva prima nel buio, mere immagini sulla parete della caverna. “Non così”, "dictio" altra, ma non terza, perché “non così” spiega il “no” integrandolo. Il senso e la ‘necessità’ di questa integrazione ha un’importanza fondamentale per la “logica”, esponendone insieme con la ragione (Grund) il limite. Ci si richiama alla VII Lettera di Platone, al problema dei problemi lì posto: come fare esperienza della “cosa della filosofia”, tò prágna tês philosophías, che non è assolutamente dicibile come le altre conoscenze (oudamôs réton hos álla mathémata)”
