Viajantes ex-cêntricas nas histórias de Ana Miranda
No full textTese (doutorado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão. Programa de Pós-Graduação em Literatura.No conjunto das narrativas ficcionais da escritora brasileira Ana Miranda, a temática da viagem # considerada uma das mais férteis da literatura ocidental de todos os tempos # ocupa um espaço de centralidade, podendo até mesmo ser vista como o mais importante eixo de estruturação de suas obras. O estudo realizado pela presente tese tem por objetivo analisar o tratamento dado ao tema da viagem nos romances Desmundo, O retrato do rei, Dias & Dias e Amrik, evidenciando que por intermédio das narradora-viajantes # Oribela, Mariana, Feliciana e Amina # a autora promove um diálogo entre diferentes culturas, gêneros, etnias e gerações, ao mesmo tempo em que estabelece um profícuo diálogo com o passado em sua invariante problematização concernente aos limites e cruzamentos entre o discurso ficcional e os discursos narrativos extraliterários que o cercam, sobretudo o histórico e o biográfico. In the whole of Brazilian writer Ana Miranda#s fictional narrative, the travel thematic # considered one of the most fertile themes of the western literature of all times # occupies a central space, and can even been seen as the most important structuring axis of Miranda#s works. The aim of the present thesis is to analyze the treatment given to the travel subject in the novels Desmundo, O retrato do rei, Dias & Dias and Amrik, emphasizing that, through the traveling narrators, Oribela, Mariana, Feliciana and Amina, the author promotes a connection between different cultures, genders, ethnics and generations, at the same time that establishes a profitable dialogue with the past in her invariant problematization concerning the limits and crossings between the fictional and the extra-literary narrative discourses that surrounds it, mainly the historical and the biographic ones
Los empresarios chinos en la realidad económica napolitana
No full textA partire della seconda metà degli anni Novanta, la presenza dei Cinesi nel Napoletano è diventata sempre più consistente. I primi Cinesi sono arrivati soprattutto dalla regione di Prato, dove si sono affermati come i principali attori economici nei compartimenti della pelletteria e della maglieria. Al loro arrivo, i Cinesi si sono stabiliti nei comuni periferici di S. Giuseppe Vesuviano e Terzigno - caratterizzati da un tessuto dinamico soprattutto nella produzione tessile – e, utilizzando le connessioni creatisi con gli imprenditori locali, si sono rapidamente integrati in questa nicchia economica. L’iscrizione dei Cinesi nel contesto economico napoletano è differente rispetto a quella degli altri gruppi di immigrati, distante dallo stereotipo del venditore ambulante straniero incarnato dal “Marocchino. Essi non si limitano a occupare il posto economico lasciato “libero” dagli autoctoni: essi giocano un ruolo decisivo nell’economica. Il loro inserimento nel tessuto napoletano - marcato dall’informalità e da forti tassi di disoccupazione - si è costruito a partire della loro capacità ad aggiustare i rapporti economici locali alla logica della globalizzazione. I Cinesi, infatti, circolano all’interno di reti transnazionali, si stabiliscono in spazi soprattutto urbani utilizzando le informazioni di chi è già insediato, si adattano alle legislazioni nazionali e internazionali e passano costantemente attraverso vari contesti giuridici soppesando le opportunità offerte dall’economia formale ma anche informale o illegale, come nel caso di Napoli.Questo campo migratorio è d’altronde collegato ad altri campi migratori, soprattutto europei. Allo stesso tempo però i Cinesi si sono accomodati del sistema economico napoletano e i processi di transnazionalizzazione che ne conseguono inglobano il valore del lavoro informale o illegale locale, l’uso di una manodopera non sempre dichiarata e forme illecite di circolazione della merce

Materia-autore = Author-Matter
No full textThe etymology of the word author refers to an act of creation, an act of augmentation, from the Latin verb augere. Author instantiates creation, the expansion of the pre-existing. In 1967 Roland Barthes declared the death of the author in his famous essay to state once more that the crisis is that of the author as a single subjectivity and as a term that condenses prestige, undermined by the de-subjectivation strategies of automatism, fortuity and fragmentation of the historical avant-gardes, as well as by the machinic act and by the reproducibility of the second avant-gardes.
Fifty years after Barthes’ paradigmatic formula, this lack of authorship appears to be a successful brand. The ten- sions between the anomie of matter, the law that establishes authorship and the economy that makes the work pos- sible, invoke discordant perspectives. Artists make the self-destruction of their work the real work, and appeal is made for the demolition of architectures, whether by a recognised author or not, in order to re-design, or better still, re-claim the territory. Artificial intelligence consolidates its logics and its design by progressively shedding human ingenuity. The space of criticism becomes, finally, increasingly ephemeral. However, there is an acceptation of criti- cism that is, rather than an individual ‘signature’, an exploration and explanation of how design makes theory.
The binomial author-matter seeks to mark these tensions and contradictions: the featured term author is main- tained to underline the persistence of that prestigious subjectivity, at the very moment when the rhetoric of “mat- ter as an author” promises other forms of authorship
