Mobile phones in Africa: opportunities and challenges for academic librarians
No full textLack of Internet access and availability of computers in Africa has hindered learning and teaching there. However, the growing prevalence of mobile phones in Africa and elsewhere has created a way for information to be quickly and easily disseminated in areas where access to the Internet and computers are limited. Mobile phones in Africa are currently being used to share information relating to agriculture, as well as other critical topics such as health and finance. This paper will examine these current uses, investigate the current and future use of mobile phones by academic libraries and in education in Africa, and discuss how mobile phones might be leveraged to further education and information dissemination through academic libraries.This article is (c) Laura Bolton Palumbo and permission has been granted for this version to appear here (http://dx.doi.org/doi:10.7282/T3GQ6VZV).Peer reviewe
Fisica e metafisica nel «Copernico»
No full textMatteo Palumbo, après avoir rappelé la suspension de ce texte, trop provocateur pour être inclus dans les premières éditions des Operette morali, le définit comme une charnière entre l’ensemble du recueil et ses ultimes conclusions. L’operetta résume tous les thèmes précédemment abordés et conserve les connotations fantastique et satirique des textes les plus en verve. Mais elle systématise le discours sur la « nullité du genre humain » et systématise aussi la théâtralité des operette en s’organisant en quatre scènes. La critique de l’anthropocentrisme devient ainsi critique de la pensée humaine et affirmation de la cécité de l’homme confronté à la Nature anti-providentielle. Copernic apparaît comme la figure emblématique de l’irréversibilité de la prise de conscience léopardienne. Matteo Palumbo, dont l’analyse est riche de renvois à d’autres critiques de ce texte, montre la récurrence de l’image copernicienne chez Leopardi (dans les Operette, les Paralipomeni, la Ginestra, sans parler du Zibaldone), mais aussi la filiation de cette vision de l’humanité jusqu’à Pirandello

onomastica, egli punta a sondare i legami ravvisabili tra l’opera e la precedente produzione
