Due inediti da Selinunte
We present a corpus consisting of twelve defixionesfrom Selinus and three texts ofdifferent natures. These were bought on the antiquarian market by a private collectorwho allowed us to examine them personally in October 2006 and then gave us the photographsof the objects in order to study them. The characteristics of the materials, suchas the encrustations and the different writing media, suggest a homogeneous discovery,perhaps from a votive dump (a sanctuary context has been assumed). We show the photographsof the materials, focussing on the five texts we have read up to now and onsome very interesting epigraphic details of the others

Rethinking entrepreneurship
While most entrepreneurship scholars agree that opportunities can be created, it is not yet clear that the ‘made or found’ alternative needs to be tackled at the ontological level. By focusing on the finding-exploiting sequence much entrepreneurship traditional literature stands entrapped in the strategic management schema and its foundations on rationalism. Within this ontology the focus on opportunity finding and exploiting simply reproduces the definition-implementation logic, which essentially denies doing and creativity. Recent literature is addressing the creative side of entrepreneuring missing, however, to address field’s ontological assumptions. By overlooking ontology therefore theory either mixes incommensurable logics or uniforms it to strategic management. In both instances lack of ontological awareness makes fields’ distinctiveness impossible. We take the teleological view of rationalism to compare entrepreneurship and strategic management literature. This analysis ultimately shows how the boundaries’ debate impinges upon the principle of sufficient cause and the instrumentality of human body and action
La “sala del paradiso” nella rocca dei Boiardo a Scandiano (Re): la riscoperta di frammenti dimenticati
L'inatteso ritrovamento in una saletta del primo piano della rocca di Scandiano - nel corso di regolari saggi di scopritura effettuati indistintamente nei diversi ambienti della Rocca - di pitture murali con paesaggi e vedute di città in lontananza, con frammenti di antichità, eseguite a tempera nella serie di lunette sulle quattro pareti, collegate tra loro da un sottostante fascione di vegetali con fiori e frutti, ha permesso di ricondurre la decorazione alla produzione pittorica di Nicolò dell'Abate.
Le indagini condotte da Diego Cuoghi avevano già portato, nel 1994, grazie all'intreccio di antiche testimonianze documentarie, accurati rilievi architettonici e intelligente raccolta di indizi, a formulare l'ipotesi di identificazione in questo ambiente cinquecentesco, variamente manomesso, del cosiddetto Camerino del Paradiso
Il restauro, eseguito dall’impresa Faberestauro e diretto dai restauratori dell'Opificio delle Pietre Dure, con il supporto del laboratorio scientifico dell’istituto, ha confermato la correttezza di quella proposta, riaccendendo il quesito ancora denso di interrogativi sulla vicenda conservativa della decorazione pittorica, sulla dinamica e sui tempi di spoliazione di quel raffinato ambiente di cultura umanistica
The Fields of German-speaking Literature. Practices of Cultural Recognition in Italy. The trajectories of Enrico Rocca and Aloisio Rendi
Working as a pars pro toto, the German language is the common feature of a wide range of literary phenomena, each with its own characteristics and socio-political context.
Austrian, Swiss, and Central European literature are some of its most common manifestations, having individuated over time to the point that they may be considered expressions of cultural, national, and historical identities distinct from German stricto sensu. However, this process of individuation does not only have an endogenous character. Even before emerging in the German world, cultural specificities are identified by foreign cultures, specifically by the reception processes carried out through practices of cultural mediation, such as university teaching, translation, and literary criticism. In this respect, if we take into account the ‘polysystemic’ perspective (Even-Zohar – Toury 1982, Even-Zohar 1990; Hermans 1985, 2002, 2006), and a certain Bourdieusian turn this perspective has taken (Bourdieu 1992), we can see, for example, how the Italian cultural system represents an external point of view towards – and is effectively entangled with – the cultural systems of German-speaking cultures. With an eye to this play of perspectives, we can thus draw important conclusions regarding the complexity of the German field.
This essay aims to highlight how an awareness of the geo-cultural and political situatedness of some varieties of German-speaking literature was developed in Italy during the first half of the twentieth century. Examining the biographies and careers of cultural mediators of the time, such as Enrico Rocca and Aloisio Rendi, we can see how cultural specificities in their socio-literary context are recognised by virtue of what Bourdieu calls ‘the restricted field of production’: that is, the output of a literary field with less economic power but greater cultural prestige. This aspect of the field plays an increasingly decisive role in editorial policies that aim to preserve differences and canonise them precisely because of their extraordinary character
