The very short story in the time of revolution. al-Mihmāz (the Spur) and the Syrian author Zakariyā Tāmir
No full textThe mass protests swept through the Middle East in early 2011 underlined the role of modern information-communication technologies (ICT). From a literary point of view, the “Arab Spring” inevitably marked the birth of a new model of writing, characterised by a more participatory, global and immediate manner of expression that could be defined as Humanism 2.0. In this context, we may insert the experimental writing by the famous Syrian author Zakariyā Tāmir: on the al-Mihmāz (The Spur) Facebook page the writer begins a literary journey publishing daily posts and explicitly supporting the Syrian revolution. This contribution intends to analyse a few of Tāmir’s most significant posts published on Facebook. The time span is 2012, just one year after the Syrian revolution: thanks to aphorisms, posts and short stories, a new literary pact with potential readers is inaugurated, within a phenomenon that we can call al-adab al-raqmī (digital literature
Introduction a "Iraq After 2003: When Trauma Becomes Art. Myth, History, and Literature"
No full textThe article aims at introducing the volume "Iraq After 2003: When Trauma Becomes Art. Myth, History, and Literature", edited By Ada Barbaro. The volume aims to provide lenses that examine, from various angles, a country, Iraq, in the aftermath of the quintessential trauma of its contemporary history, namely, 2003.The volume is thus a collection of "narratives", of
narrative acts that render the relationship between reality and its discourse almost oxymoronic. The present work, born in the wake of the conference «Iraq After 2003: When Trauma Becomes Art. Myth, History, and Literature», is therefore published as an outcome of the scientific project "Forms, Languages, and [Con]texts of Tàrìkh: Writing and Rewriting History in Iraq", of which the author of these pages is the Principal Investigator

Drug use among Adelaide secondary students, 1974
No full textThis survey was conceived as a pilot study to provide an indication of the current usage of various drugs by third and fifth year students at Adelaide High Schools. It was hoped that the information that was obtained could determine the extent of the drug problem in schools and suggest ways of tackling the problem. It was anticipated that a larger study could later be undertaken to monitor trends. Questions were designed to measure use of and attitudes towards a wide range of drugs. The drugs included were: marijuana, minor painkillers, tobacco, narcotics, alcohol, sedatives, hallucinogens, stimulants and tranquillisers. Students were asked their opinion of the danger of each drug, their 'goodness and the desired availability. Previous, present and future drug use was explored, including an estimate of frequency, quantity and relative use. Drug use by peers and the source of certain drugs was also investigated. Other data collected included a measurement of the frequency with which students participated in various leisure activities and the following background variables; age, sex, parents' country of birth, own country of birth, length of residence in Australia, fathers' occupation as well as satisfaction with school performance, usual confidant and usual social company. Four questions designed to measure the students' interest, suspicion, concern and willingness to complete the survey were included at the end of the questionnaire
Il culto di san Michele in Campania. Antonino e Catello
No full textIl volume, diviso in quattro sezioni, approfondisce l'origine e la diffusione del culto di San Michele in Campania, nelle sue varie espressioni. Nella prima parte vengono indagati gli insediamenti micaelici, con particolare riferimento alle numerose grotte che, sull'esempio di quella garganica, furono dedicate a San Michele soprattutto lungo l'asse Salerno-Avellino- Benevento. Il volume analizza numerosi testi agiografici campani che attestano la presenza dell'Angelo talvolta con generiche funzioni di angelo custode, talaltra con gli attributi tipici di San Michele. Una cospicua sezione del volume è dedicata al dossier agiografico di Antonino e Catello, rispettivamente monaco e vescovo di Sorrento e Stabia, un'area da sempre roccaforte bizantina. Sulla base di elementi storici e di elementi rivenienti dal dossier agiografico viene posticipata all'XI secolo - e quindi di oltre un secolo rispetto alle posizioni della critica- l'epoca di composizione della Vita Antonini (XI secolo). In quest'epoca Sorrento vive un particolare momento di vivacità e di rinnovamento a livello politico, sociale e religioso. Nei testi agiografici Antonino e Catello sono co-fondatori del Santuario del Monte Faito, considerato il santuario nazionale dei Bizantini, anche per ragioni di antagonismo e rivalità con il Santuario di San Michele del Gargano, santuario nazionale dei LongobardiThe book, divided into four parts, is a thorough analysis of the cult of St. Michael in Campania, in its various expressions.
In the first part the author presents micaelici settlements with particular reference to the numerous caves that, based on the example of the Gargano, were dedicated to the Angel, especially along the road Salerno-Avellino-Benevento. The book contains an examination of the hagiographic texts from Campania attesting the presence of Angel, sometimes in its generic function of custos, sometimes with attributes typical of Michael.
The author analyzes the hagiographic dossier of Antoninus and Catello, respectively monaco and bishop of Sorrento and Stabiae. The author basing on historical data and data emerging from the same dossier, delaies more than a century the composition of the Vita Antonini (11th century). In this century Sorrento lived a revival on political-institutional-religious level. The anonymous author of Life - probably a monaco /bishop - approaches Antonino (IX century) and Catello (sixth century) making the abbot of Sorrento co-starred in the foundation of the sanctuary of St. Michael on Mount Fait, considered a national shrine of the Byzantines in Naples, also for reasons of competition with the sanctuary of Mount St. Michael Gargano, traditionally linked to the Lombards
