Dante attraverso i documenti. II. Presupposti e contesti dell’impegno politico a Firenze (1295-1302)
La sezione monografica comprende dodici articoli volti a investigare il significato del breve impegno di Dante Alighieri nelle istituzioni politiche fiorentine avvenuto tra 1295 e 1302. Un primo blocco di testi (i contributi di E. Faini, A. Montefusco, P. Borsa, M. Grimaldi) dà conto dei presupposti di tale impegno, analizzando le valenze politiche della formazione culturale e poetica dei fiorentini alla fine del Duecento. Un secondo gruppo di contributi (di L. Tanzini, E. Brilli e A. Zorzi) indaga il contesto istituzionale e politico di quegli anni alla luce delle fonti normative e cronachistiche. Infine un terzo insieme di saggi (di D. Cappi, D. Carron, P. Gualtieri e D. Bortoluzzi) Dante e Firenze vengono comparati con comuni cittadini e personaggi ad essi legati. Conclude la sezione un saggio di G. Milani in cui, anche alla luce delle indagini raccolte, la documentazione relativa all’impegno politico del poeta è sottoposta a un complessivo riesame

Recensione a: Sara J. Newman, Aristotle and Style, Lewingston-Queenston-Lampeter: The Edwin Mellen Press, 2005
Well fitting into the recent Aristotelian bibliography, as Alan G. Gross rightly points out in his preface to the book, Sara Newman’s work offers a very engaged commentary to the relationship between Aristotle’s theory and practice of metaphor and contemporary under-standings of it. As in a roundtrip, the author comes back at the end of her analysis to her open-ing question ‘Why Aristotle and Style?’ (p. 1) which she can now answer saying that “In spite of its limitations, Aristotle notion of style is more than ornamental and substitutive; it operates consistently in his texts to enhance, to facilitate, and to systematically guide certain concep-tual inquiries” (p. 263). Indeed the book has not only the merit to stress the role of Aristotle’s metaphor within the clarifying function of style and consequently its link with the logical process of persuasion, but it is also an important contribution to vindicate Aristotle’s rights in the development of the modern conceptual theory of metaphor
Conclusioni: persuasione o educazione?
In tale parte del lavoro sono contenute le conclusioni di un lavoro di ricerca realizzato su un campione di soggetti intervistati (405 interviste domiciliari personali) finalizzato a cogliere la percezione circa l'esperienza mutuo nel vissuto e nelle aspettative dei clienti bancari. Un ruolo centrale lo assumerà certamente l'informazione ma ancora più un processo graduale di educazione finanziaria
Does the addition of thalidomide to MP or low-intensity SCT improve survival in elderly multiple myeloma patients?
Pride or shame? Sulla letteratura working class di Alberto Prunetti
The article proposes a reading of the novels of Alberto Prunetti, in the light of his critical reflection on working class literature. The author studies the relationship of Prunetti’s reflection with the debate on ‘literature and industry’ held in the ‘Menabò’ in the 1960s, in order to appreciate innovations and limits of this new perspective. A comparison is then proposed with contemporary French working class literature, in particular with the novels of Edouard Louis. On the basis of the different treatment of the two competitive concepts of Pride and Shame used by the writers, the author concludes that Prunetti’s writing is characterized by a heroic attitude, while Louis’ one, influenced by Ernaux and Eribon, is more pessimistic and intersectional
Lower semicontinuity of functionals via concentration-compactness principle
In this paper we show the weak lower semicontinuity of some classes of functionals, using the concentration-compactness principle of P. L. Lions. These functionals involve an integral term, and we do not know whether it can be handled by the De Giorgi theorem. The semicontinuity result allows us to prove several existence results for quasilinear elliptic equations
The Popular Politicization of Translating: Brunetto Latini and the Caesarian Orations
The contribution discusses the results of the recent critical edition of the volgarizzamento
of Cicero’s “Orazioni cesariane” written by Brunetto Latini. In particular,
the problems of attribution, dating and commissioning of the translation are
considered. The author proposes to identify the context of Brunetto Latini’s operation
in the preparatory period for the peace of Cardinal Latino Malabranca in Florence
(1280). Some conclusions are drawn from this discussion, in particular in relation
to the “Republican” anti-Cesarianism of Brunetto and his political vision of the
activity of translation
