classici in Ausonio
No full textViene preso in esame il problema del rapporto che Ausonio intrattenne con i modelli poetici classici nell’elaborazione, attraverso la sua intera opera poetica, di un modello di eros coniugale variegato e complesso, ma tutt’altro che privo di elementi di continuità e di coerenza. Particolare attenzione è dedicata agli Epigrammata, ai Parentalia e al Cento nuptialis. Ausonio, in una sorta di ‘storia esemplare’ del suo stesso rapporto coniugale che va da Epigr. 20 attraverso Epigr. 27-29 fino a Parent. 9, recupera sostanzialmente aspetti differenti dei medesimi modelli letterari (che, Virgilio a parte, vanno dalla commedia arcaica a Catullo, all’elegia, ai grandi poeti di nugae epigrammatiche e di silvae d’età flavia, Marziale e Stazio), con un gusto costante per l’allusione ‘contestuale’ e spesso straniante a più di un auctor e di un’opera, che vengono lasciati interagire nel microcontesto poetico. Con l’esibita elegizzazione del rapporto con Sabina che si attua nel corso di Epigr. 20 si ‘correggono’ gli effetti dell’allusione incipitaria a Catull. 5 (v. 1 uxor vivamus ceu viximus); mentre d’altro canto la poesia funeraria e i ritratti esemplari di spose nei Parentalia (cfr. Parent. 2, 5, 16, 19, 23, 25 etc.) forniscono nuova contestualizzazione a topoi elegiaci (cfr. ad es. Parent. 9,15 muta domus silet et torus alget). I richiami all’eros nuziale, in particolare alla prima notte di nozze (spesso dislocati nei più disparati contesti di genere: eloquente Parent. 16,15-16: hic ubi primus hymen, sedes ibi maesta sepulcri, / nupta magis dici quam tumulata potes), punteggiano l’intera opera.Throughout his oeuvre, Ausonio elaborates a complex, but not inconsistent, model of conjugal eros. This is a construction of an “exemplary history” of the ego in his own marital relationship: different aspects of the same literary models are recovered (Vergil, archaic comedy, Catullus, elegy, Martial, Statius and the novelli), with a taste for the “contextual” and baffling allusion to more than one author and work, which interact within the poetic micro-context. Starting from Epigr., 89 Green, the paper focuses on the “elegization” of the relationship with Sabina; Epigr., 14 and 20 are also examined (in Epigr., 20 the elegiac models interact and “correct” the opening “motto”, which alludes to Catull. 5 and Epigr., 14); in the funerary poetry of the Parentalia (see Par., 2, 5, 9, 16, 19, 23, 25, etc.) ancient erotic topoi are re-contextualized

Digitalising the Museum
No full textDigitalising the Museum is an online repository created as a substitute for physical visits to London's museums and galleries and art centres that were meant to be undertaken by undergraduates from the London College of Communication (LCC) in 2020. In an attempt to provide a version of the exhibition experience whilst arts venues were in lockdown due to pandemic, the author began exploring their online provision, featuring it in a virtual learning resource and theorising 'digital museum'. This became the groundwork for a project conducted with the alumni who started evaluating digital exhibitions, tours, and artefacts at London art venues with an interest to support them whilst their doors were closed, their staff furloughed, and decolonisation agenda become reinvigorated with the Black Lives Matter movement. The author reflected on the alumni's findings to map the museums engagement with digital technology throughout the pandemic caused by COVID-19

Venetian Themes in Early-reformation Bohemia at the End of the Middle Ages.

The author also describes a Hussite manifesto published in the summer of 1420 and addressed to Venice as a potential ally in the coming confrontation with King Sigismund of Luxembourg
